History NightmareFuel / TheBraveLittleToaster

** "Run..."

* Borderlining on FridgeHorror as well; when one closely observes the movie after childhood, it will become frighteningly noticeable how many suicides/attempted suicides there are in it - [[spoiler:Kirby swallowing his cord; the Air Conditioner making himself blow out; Lampy almost killing himself via electrocution; the one green car willingly driving onto the rack heading for the crusher; the flower losing all will to live and shows strong implication to not survive long past its scene]]; and of course [[spoiler:Toaster [[HeroicSacrifice sacrificing himself to save his Master]]]].

** The Toaster's dream in general, which accentuates his fear of [[spoiler:shorting out and ''accidentally killing the kid'']].

* This movie is packed full of it. These include the air conditioner's blow out (and his dead corpse sitting in the dark in the back of the room for the majority of the film afterward), Toaster's nightmare, the deeply unnerving and upsetting flower scene, the various Family Unfriendly Deaths, etc.

* "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nOeK0Ig-H9g It's a B-Movie]]". Menacing, deformed appliances, the little plaintive part in the middle ("There goes the sun"), and the spooky shadow puppets. Heck, there's even an EyeScream with the portable fan thing. I know, I know, DarkIsNotEvil...

-->"There goes the sun\\

* The song "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-UfsEj7AOGI Worthless]]" is packed full of NightmareFuel that would probably only apply to older people watching the film, since the catchy but fairly complex (for a kids' movie) lyrics are riddled with oblique hints of aging, death, and suicide. Seriously, try imagining humans singing that song and see where your mind takes you.
** Don't have to imagine it: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VoJy4FxqtEY There's a video for it]].

-->I just can't\\

** And don't forget the one car who, after singing part of his verse about how his life has amounted to nothing, jumps onto the conveyor belt of his own volition. The people who wrote this must have been going through some seriously tough times.
*** When I realized, with the green Reservation truck's part, that a ''kid-targeted Disney movie'', about as directly as they could get away with doing so, depicted someone committing ''suicide''... yeah. Didn't exactly sleep easy that night.
**** Supposedly, the writers intended to show that car [[HeroicSacrifice sacrificing itself]] for another vehicle, but it ended up looking like a suicidal move.
* The titular toaster's [[spoiler:Heroic Sacrifice, and decidedly {{Family Unfriendly|Death}} DisneyDeath. Egads!]]
** The Toaster's [[spoiler:''graphic mutilation in the inner workings of the trash compactor'']]!

* The scene where Blanky is lost in the dark, stormy forest all night, and then the battery is going out, and even though the battery gets recharged, we are led to believe that Lampy [[spoiler:died in the process of said recharging]]! [[spoiler:(Though granted, we are able to breathe sighs of relief, when it's revealed that he survived, apart from a broken bulb and a cough.]]

** Additionally, there's another possible interpretation for the part about taking a man to a graveyard: the possibility that the car may have been used to haul a body to be dumped or to haul a person to be murdered. Both sets of possibilities are deeply unsettling.

** The car that sings about how she once took a texan to a wedding. The lyrics state that 'he kept forgetting, his lonelinesss letting his thoughts turn to home and we turned' revealing that they crashed on the way to the wedding. This is immediately followed by a car declaring that he took a man to a graveyard ending with those two car going into the compactor together. It's not hard to believe that the Texan who crashed on his way to the wedding was the same man who got taken to the graveyard.

* The MonsterClown in Toaster's dream is particularly notable; just thinking about that clown and its SlasherSmile sends shivers down the spine.

** He doesn't just [[spoiler:die]]. [[spoiler:He ''rages himself to death, spewing sparks and flames while he slowly flies apart'']].
