I'm a bad troll...
What I mean is movies that are/were made for kids, but that had some serious undertones, a bit of violence/blood, villains that were actually kinda scary when you were little, a bit of sex appeal, characters that actually died and stayed dead etc etc.
The three that jump out instantly for me are The Neverending Story (Gmork scared the hell out of me as a kid)
The Last Unicorn
And as much as it pains me to admit it, Trantor the troll in Ernest Scared Stupid got me a few times as well. (interesting anecdote: if you do a Google image search for "Trantor the troll", my HF avatar is one of the first things that comes up )
I also really want to give The Land Before Time a shout out, but the only thing I remember from that movie that did anything for me was Littlefoot's mom dying.
