* In ''Back in Black'', Aunt May had been mortally wounded by an assassin that Kingpin had sent after Peter. Peter replies by donning his black (non-Venom) costume and breaking in the jail, and when he finds that Kingpin had set up a prison fight between them he proceeds to utterly beat him up, making clear that all the times Kingpin had ''thought'' they were going toe-to-toe Spidey was holding back to not kill him... And this time he's not. Kingpin is left battered and broken in front of hundreds of criminals who now know to not go after Spider-Man's loved ones, and before leaving Spidey informs Kingpin that if May dies from the wound he'll finish the job.
** In ''What-If? Back in Black'' the assassin kills MJ - and there's ''nothing'' that can stop Spider-Man from coming after him. The police? They don't even slow him down. Iron Man? Spidey has a remote for his armor. Have two corrupt cops taking Aunt May hostage so he'll be able to beat Spider-Man to death? Spidey casually [[AndShowItToYou rips his heart out and explains he knows he'll kill Aunt May anyway because she's a witness]], and then [[DontMakeMeDestroyYou asks the cops if they really want to harm Aunt May after he killed the guy paying them]]. ''Then'' Iron Man and other cops arrive... And Spider-Man camly turns himself in to the other cops.

Uncanny Valley is IUEO now and the subjective version has been split; cleaning up misuse and ZCE in the process


** While Venom himself can be scary alone, he gets ''significantly'' creepier in the non-canon ''Dark Origin''. As the name suggests it shows Eddie's origin, as his TraumaCongaLine begins and his life starts to go to hell. As Eddie, putting aside his [[AdaptationalVillainy much scummier personality]] as a pathological liar and social climber, he becomes disturbing as his sanity plummets, but it's when he's Venom does he become terrifying as all hell. He disguises himself as a costume in front of MJ, and then gives her a JumpScare via reverting to his regular form. Plus, he acts just...''[[StalkerWithoutACrush creepy]]'' towards Peter, watching him from the Bugle's window, and as he fights Spider-Man for the first time he undergoes some BodyHorror as the symbiote covers and uncovers his face and body. The artwork is also particularly...[[UncannyValley disturbing]], ''especially'' when Eddie first bonds with Venom. [[EyeScream Just...]] ''[[FacialHorror wow...]]'' Needless to say, while Venom can serve to be a NightmareFuelStationAttendant in regular stories, it's ''Venom: Dark Origin'' that takes his creepiness to levels that were never reached before.

* Skip Westcott, a one-off character from the ambiguously canon PSA comic ''Spider-Man and Power Pack #1''. One day, Skip just pulls up a chair beside Peter (this is before the radioactive spider), introduces himself, starts a conversation, and walks Peter home. From then on, Skip and Peter strike up a great friendship, Skip helping Peter with homework and the two talking about life. Sounds wholesome, right? Well, one day Skip shows Peter some porn magazines and then tells him that they should "touch each other like the people in that magazine"... Yes, Skip is in fact a sexual predator and molested Peter. While the comic ends on a good note, revealing Peter told Ben and May what happened and encouraging another abuse victim to tell his parents, Skip leaves a frightening impression, especially since it isn't clear if he was arrested or is still out there looking for another victim. While the supervillains and criminals Spidey usually fight operate on a much larger scale and hurt far more people at once than Skip, child sexual abuse [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil is a league of evil all on its own]]. Plus, while these supervillains have many more resources, like gadgets or money, to do harm, this makes Ship even more frightening as [[TheyLookJustLikeEveryoneElse someone like him you very well could pass by on the street, and you wouldn't notice because he seems normal.]]

[[caption-width-right:350:'''''[[RunOrDie DIIIIEEEE!!!]]''''']]
* [[spoiler:'''[[VideoGame/SpiderMan Monster Ock]]''', which is basically what happens when Doc Ock gets Carnage's symbiote]]. There's no way to defeat him: all you can do is run, and pray he won't catch you, all while he makes noises that sound like a monster being strangled. Look up videos of him on [=YouTube=], and many of the comments will be similar to: "This scared me to death as a kid!"
** One of his growls end in an inhuman "DIE! DIE! DIIIEEEE!!!" that sounds not too dissimilar how the alien says it in ''Film/IndependenceDay''. He even says it in [[spoiler:Doc Ock's]] normal voice! About halfway through the chase, [[spoiler:Doc Ock's]] human voice returns to also simply say, "IT'S... NOT... OVER... YET!!!!" - which he can also repeat in his regular, demonic voice.
** The sequence takes place in a vent, meaning that you may get stuck to walls running from him and wind up seeing the meter that shows how close he is to you shoot up fast. Try NOT to feel your heart rate spike.
** How about Carnage himself? Him shrieking "The pain, the paaaain!" every time you pull him into the sonic emitter area...
* In [[VideoGame/SpiderMan2EnterElectro its sequel]], Spider-Man just wants to ask his friend Dr. Curt Connors for help, and since Connors is unable to answer Spidey's phone call, Spidey has to visit Connors' lab in BioTech headquarters. Unfortunately, BioTech's anti-infiltration AI detects Spider-Man's presence, hence unavoidable ManVersusMachine scenario happens, where Spider-Man has to face dozens of [[KillerRobot laser-firing robots]] [[UpToEleven and automatic electricity traps]] that can [[OneHitKill insta-kill him in one hit]].
** From the same game, The Lizard himself. Completely out of control and almost unbeatable if not for the emergency antidote serum available in the lab. [[OhCrap Note: The Lizard can climb up the walls and stick to the ceiling, giving Spider-Man very little space to hide or rest]]. Even the normally dynamic sounding Stan Lee's description of the Lizard in the Character Viewer is terrifying.
-->'''Stan Lee:''' The Lizard. Product of a twisted experiment... gone wrong.

* ''Spider-Man: The Sinister Six'' for PC is an unremarkable adventure game, but there's one incredibly jarring moment around the halfway mark, when Peter Parker is given an ultimatum by the Chameleon: bring Spider-Man to the Sinister Six, or else Mary-Jane dies. To really hammer it in, Chameleon briefly shape-shifts into Mary-Jane--with ''half her face torn off''. (She's unharmed when Spider-Man finds her, thankfully.)
