The scariest part is when the dwarf keeps appearing from under the ground, out of shells or eve tree trunks. I have had a pathological dread of dwarves ever since.
The really scary part about watching SRT back in '63, apart from it being in B&W on BBC TV, was the fact that under the very plummy BBC Narrative you could hear the East German dialogue and at the time that sound like devil language.
I recently bought the SRT on DVD with the BBC narration and found turning the colour down made the whole thing more nostalgic.

moments'. It was number 95. Reece Shearsmith from 'The League of
Gentlemen' (another favourite of mine) talked about it. Supposedly
the scariest moment was at the end where the dwarf floew round and
round the ring of flames and then plunged into the ground.
I think it was scarier when the chasm filled with water, the princess
tried to cross on the fish, and then they were stranded at the bottom
when the water ran out.
The second scariest was when the lake and waterfall froze over
trapping them.
What's your scariest moment in the film?
