* There is a good chunk of the film where after Jack climbs the beanstalk, the film turns into a legit creepy haunted house movie, straight down to eerie whispers and singing in the hallway.

Added DiffLines:

* The entirety of Tulip's and Margaret's wedding. The high-pitched singing voice, the faceless paper cutouts making up the audience, the witch's horrible evil smile...jeez.
* Really any scene with Madam Hecuba is freaky as hell. Her LeanAndMean figure just lands into the UncannyValley when seen from a distance.
* The first scene of Jack with Margaret looks extremely oppressive because of her static posture and lifeless face combined with the psychedelic sound of the synthesizer.
* At one point, a bunch of voices emanate from a hallway, singing to Jack that he should run. Hecuba shuts all the doors in the hall, cutting the voices off.
