The flying monkeys have scared many generations of kids with their devious appearance, although monkeys themselves aren’t necessarily scary, but the idea of them flying and doing the bidding of the Wicked Witch scarred the hell out of every kid that watched this movie.

No argument there, Jim. Even the Wicked Witch’s guards were scary. We watched the screen through our fingers! 🙈

When my children were young they called them “Monster Monkeys” with a shudder in their voices.
