“Bride Wars,” 2009
Don’t stand between a woman and her dream wedding. In one scarring scene, Anne Hathaway dyes Kate Hudson’s hair blue; Hudson makes a face straight out of “The Exorcist” and then screeches, “MY HAIR’S BLUE!” Nightmares for days.

“The Perfect Man,” 2005
Don’t stand between a woman and her dream wedding. In one scarring scene, Anne Hathaway dyes Kate Hudson’s hair blue; Hudson makes a face straight out of “The Exorcist” and then screeches, “MY HAIR’S BLUE!” Nightmares for days.

“Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets,” 2002
We’re sorry, but who gave this monstrous film a PG rating? Twelve-year-old children dodge petrification as a giant snake slithers through the walls of their school.

“Kazaam,” 1996
Shaquille O’Neal plays a genie who makes mountains of fast food fall from the sky. Cover. Your. Eyes.

“Glitter,” 2001 Even the queen of all divas couldn’t salvage this saccharine-filled romp. Mariah Carey’s atrocious acting is scream-worthy. This might be the most tear-inducing flick on the list.

“Cinderella,” 1950
After her father mysteriously dies, a poor girl is held prisoner by her demon stepmother and two sinister stepsisters. Even though Cinderella gets revenge in the end (with the help of her fairy god-witch), it doesn’t make this film any less scary. At one point, the two stepsisters tear Cinderella’s clothes off and the stepmother locks her in the attic.

“The Wizard of Oz,” 1939
Flying monkeys with lifeless eyes, a pyromaniac witch and a Talking. Damn. Lion. Yup, BYE.

“From Justin To Kelly,” 2003
“Surprise b—ch, I bet you thought you’d seen the last of me” is what Justin Guarini was thinking when he came at us with “From Justin to Kelly” in 2003. Guarini—and the equally cringe-worthy Kelly Clarkson—assault us with bad dialogue, bad hair and horrendous clichés that make us wonder how these two were “American Idol” finalists. You will never be the same.

“Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory,” 1971
A crazy, candy-obsessed man lures five children into his chocolate factory and proceeds to torture them. One kid drowns in a chocolate river; one turns into a giant blueberry; one falls down an incinerating chute and one shrinks down to microscopic size. And we haven’t even mentioned when Charlie and his grandfather almost die via a razor-sharp fan. “Halloween,” eat your heart out.
