  • Ludo's tormenters has toothy stick monsters.
  • Sarah and Hoggle's encounter with the "cleaner" machine, a metallic tunnel-filling device that threatens them with numerous whirling blades and spikes that look capable of shredding flesh and bone.

  • The surreal masquerade ball shows its participants' strange behaviour and Sarah's obvious confusion over Jareth's romantic overtures to her.
