Hansel and Gretel, Mikhail Vrubel, 1896 Warning: Major spoilers for Skinamarink!! I watched Skinamarink because people kept comparing it to a David Lynch film, which is the fastest way to get me to watch/read something. I enjoyed the oddness and experimentation of lingering on the menacing features of a darkened house, but as I watched it, I didn't think I was afraid. After the movie was over, though, I went to get a glass of water and realized that my hands were shaking.
I've been mainlining Skinamarink stuff, so I was pleased to see this article. Didn't even enjoy my experience watching the film in theaters, but it had an amazing after-effect and the movie was on my mind for days and I have immensely enjoyed reading dissections and theories online. So, I've definitely turned a corner on the film. Still debating on whether I should watch it again, but I really dug the director's precursor short film, "Heck".

Definitely want to see more folk drill down on the Hansel and Gretel thread. Good pointer to explore the cartoons more too!
