That particular character was Scrum


* The mermaids. ''Especially'' when you can hear the terrified screams of Barbossa's men as the mermaids slaughter them. Especially when the one of them convinces a guy to poke his head underwater, by acting like she wants to seduce him. And once he does, her beautiful face quickly becomes scary and menacing, revealing her TRUE intention. And the horrified guy's reaction only makes it worse.

** Also, that scary ColdHam speech Blackbeard delivers right before stringing the mutineers up, as he emerges from his cabin with those famous smoking ropes in his hair.
-->'''Blackbeard:''' [[FauxAffablyEvil Gentlemen]]. (''[[TranquilFury calmly takes a shot from his bottle before throwing it onto the deck at Jack's feet, breaking it]]'') I be placed in a bewilderment. There I were... resting. And upon a sudden, I hear an ungodly row upon deck. (''he strokes the hilt of his sword, making the ship's ropes slide across the deck like snakes'') Sailors abandoning their posts without orders, without leave. Men before the mast... taking the ship for themselves. (''to Angelica'') What be that, First Mate?\\
'''Angelica:''' Mutiny, Captain.\\
'''Blackbeard:''' (''raising a hand to his ear'') Again?\\
'''Angelica:''' Mutiny!\\
'''Blackbeard:''' Aye... ''mutiny''. And what fate befalls mutineers? (''draws his sword from its sheath'') Now, we know the answer to that, do we not? Mutineers... ''[[SuddenlyShouting HANG!!]]'' (''he thrust his sword up into the air and the mutineers start getting snared'')

* [[spoiler: Blackbeard]] being seemingly flayed alive by the waterspout as his skeletal hand reaches out to the horrified Angelica. Not to mention the fact that we can see his ''blood'' while his body is being torn apart. One can also see his guts for about a second, leaving his body only to be torn to pieces.

* Barbossa's story about how Blackbeard attacked the Black Pearl. Given what we saw when Blackbeared dealt with the mutineers, we can assume that the attack on the Pearl was even more horrifying. Especially as Barbossa explains how it led him to a LifeOrLimbDecision...

* The results of the ''Queen Anne's Revenge'''s riggings coming to life under Blackbeard's power and snatching up the would-be mutineers -- the men hanging from the now-tangled rigging like flies caught in a spider's web.

* The scene where one mermaid is singing and the others are swimming underneath the boat is very suspenseful and quite reminiscent of ''Film/{{Jaws}}''.
