A Series of Unfortunate Events (2004)

Go To

  • When Klaus and Violet immediately recognize Stefano is really Olaf, Klaus tries to close the door on him only to be stopped when Olaf stabs the door with a knife. Later during his stay at Monty’s, he’s seen rocking in a chair with the same knife glistening in the moonlight with intention to keep the children in their rooms.
    Count Olaf: (cheerily, in his "Stefano" voice) Do you have a hall pass?
    (Violet retreats back to her room, unnerved)
    Count Olaf: (ominously, in his regular voice) I didn't think so.
    • Immediately after the latter scene, Monty is seen lovingly stroking his pet snake Petunia, when a dark silhouette appears behind him, framed by the flashes of lightning outside. The next morning the children find Monty dead, having been murdered by Olaf. While the character is portrayed here with a dash of Jim Carrey's trademark comedy, there's no doubt that this version of Olaf is still a very dangerous man and an unrepentant murderer, and this scene highlights just how thoroughly evil the guy is.
  • That moment when Count Olaf lets go of Josephine, as the boat sinks. We actually get to see her sink with the boat in a deleted scene.
  • The DVD's main menu and the film's credits are darker than the movie itself.
