How scary is Feathers McGraw?!

OK, I feel a bit silly even writing this.

I was quite a tough child and wasn't scared of any film villains, even the Child Catcher on Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. But for some reason, Feathers McGraw really freaked me out... I don't know what it was... maybe the silent evil of it all, but he just sent shivers up my spine. Maybe it was his piercing little eyes, or the way nobody except Gromit noticed his evilness... or it could have been that one sudden look straight at the camera when Gromit is hiding from him in the dog food box in the street... I don't know what it is, but he really used to scare me!
Does anyone agree with me, or was I just a wussier child than I thought?

I doubt. Therefore I might be.

It's the intense stare. It is a creepy character.

Glad to see I wasn't the only one!
I think I was nine when I saw this one, and he scared the living you-know-what out of me!
