Despite being an adaptation of a classic fairytale, it's a disturbing and sometimes eerie dive into nightmare land when it’s not a pleasant acid trip.
- 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 Lean and Mean figure is creepy when seen from a distance.
- 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.
- 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.
