* Kyubey talks with Madoka about the relationship between incubators and mankind through history. Its eyes. ITS FUCKING EYES. When asked about why he has no feelings to the girls' tortures...
** Madoka's body during the last part of it, dear Lord. She goes into the freaking ''fetal position'' while begging Kyubey to stop talking. By the end she moves out of the fetal position, places her head back and her body goes limp.
** "Do you feel any guilt or remorse for the livestock you consume?" Then they show quick shots of farm animals in pens, done in that creepy "stained glass" [[DerangedAnimation art style]].
* Walpurgisnacht's EstablishingCharacterMoment. The skyscraper-sized thing is drifting down through the clouds, fire sprouting up around it, and it lifts its enormous central gear and slams it back down. It really hammers home that this thing is no ordinary witch, it's a ''god among witches.''

* Madoka, now Kriemhild Gretchen, is '''not''' simply a witch; and Walpurgisnacht (easily the most powerful witch in the Madoka universe up to this point) is merely a ''blip'' compared to her. She's become something that [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Yui Ikari]] would envy and that [[Manga/HellStarRemina Remina]] would fear. To make things even ''worse'', take a look at her [[http://images.puella-magi.net/c/c5/Card_Kriemhild.png?20110324100002 witch's card]]. That thing? That giant, mountainous thing? That's the witch of [[LetThemDieHappy SALVATION]].
** Her definition of "salvation" is strongly rumored to be something like [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Instrumentality]], or even worse, a [[Film/TheMatrix Matrix]]-style LotusEaterMachine. Worldwide happiness is ''so'' much easier once you [[IndividualityIsIllegal remove that pesky "individuality" thing, right?]]
** When the storm clouds burst from Madoka's Soul Gem and [[http://images.puella-magi.net/9/97/Madoka-witch-first.jpg?20110310174437 form into]] a [[UncannyValley lumpy, amorphous]] shape just ''barely'' resembling her.
* Homura's fate is also worth some mention. Specifically, she constantly goes back in time to prevent Madoka's death/corruption. She has to watch the suffering of Madoka and the other Magical Girls over and over again, and the outcomes are crueler with every timeline. At one point, she was forced to ''[[MercyKill shoot Madoka's Soul Gem]]'' to prevent her transformation into Gretchen. That was ''at Madoka's own request''.
* In an interview with the director, he stated the the number of times Homura has re-wound time is approaching 100. If we consider that Homura left the hospital in the middle of March and Walpurgisnacht appears at the end of April, that means that Homura's been lost in time for about 12 years. In other words, she has been ''at war'' against witches and Kyubey for ''12 years''.
* Of all people, [[CoolBigSis Mami]] going through SanitySlippage is pretty chilling. In one timeline, after failing to rescue Sayaka from her witch form, Mami restrains Homura, and then delivers a MercyKill to Kyoko by shooting her Soul Gem. Then, her end is quickly met after Madoka fires an arrow at Mami's Soul Gem. It's just a straight up minute or so of the remaining Magical Girls losing their minds over their fate and it's just awful and scary to witness.
* Though it's definitely on the milder end of the spectrum compared to most of the other NightmareFuel in this series, one scene showing Homura killing Kyubey, only for ''another'' Kyubey to immediately appear in the foreground is very creepy in a ParanoiaFuel kind of way. It really hammers home the feeling of hopelessness and fighting the inevitable that Homura is going through.
* In one timeline, we see what it's like to be visited by a witch from a first person Homura's perspective. Sure, she is rescued before anything terrible happens, but it is still creepy as hell.

** To make matters ''even worse'' in the movie, a FreezeFrameBonus shows one of Sayaka's arms is absolutely mangled out of shape. Whether Elsa Maria did it to her or she did it herself by the force of her own attacks, ''she's still hammering away at the Witch with it like a flail''.

Considering the [[Creator/GenUrobuchi pedi]][[Creator/StudioShaft grees]] behind ''Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica'', some creep factors are to be expected. However, the sheer level of NightmareFuel to be found in the series's life has been rather terrifying. Do NOT be fooled by Creator/UmeAoki's TastesLikeDiabetes [[PuniPlush character]] [[ArtStyleDissonance designs]]; this show is "''Manga/{{Devilman}}'' [[JustForFun/XMeetsY with]] {{Magical Girl}}s; a TearJerker with tears made of pure NightmareFuel." [[RunningGag Yeah, it's that kind of show.]]
