The scene that creeped me out as a youngster,was those freaky eyes Miss Piggy had when she karate chopped the villians in the barn.

It's funny you mention the eyes of Miss Piggy. Nothing in this movie scared me as a child but what did scare me as a child was the villain in Follow That Bird, whose name I can't remember, but she was like an evil looking Big Bird. I remember that scaring the crap out of me as a kid.

Dragonzord! Mastodon! Pterodactyl! Triceratops! Saber Toothed Tiger! Tyrannosaurus!

Those were good ones. For me it would be Sweetums crashing through the movie screen at the end. That scared the sh!t out of me as a kid...

The idea that some guy wanted to kidnap and kill Kermit....

This movie did not scare me as a kid. Jaws did though. I refused to go into any body of water. Thankfully I got over it.
