10 Genuinely Scary Moments In Marvel Movies

Summary

• The Snap in Avengers: Infinity War is the scariest moment in the MCU, as half the universe abruptly disintegrates, leaving everyone uncertain and helpless.
• Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness introduces horror elements, such as Zombie Strange, adding a genuinely scary tone to the MCU.
• Thor: Love & Thunder showcases the Shadow Realm, with Gorr trapping the Thors and Valkyrie, creating a creepy and unsettling atmosphere.

Films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe have always been ones that everyone in the family can enjoy, but that doesn’t mean the studio hasn’t included some genuinely scary moments. Though the early MCU wasn't entirely light hearted, the stakes of the universe got much more serious as the Infinity Saga progressed. Thanks to Thanos’ devastating and lasting effects on the franchise, the studio has since embraced its heroes’ darker stories. It’s a trend that has been seen in the more recent MCU films, and it looks to be one that will continue into the MCU’s future phases.
It would be a stretch for the MCU to ever produce a straight-up horror film, but there are definitely plenty of moments in the MCU’s extensive film catalog that teeter on the line of terrifying. Some moments utilize classic horror film elements like jumpscares, while other moments are scary because of the psychological implications. It is always refreshing to have a variety of tones within the MCU, and sprinkling these genuinely scary moments into the universe keeps Marvel fans on the edge of their seats.
