I can recall a lot of traumatic things in movies when I was a kid-- long 
before there were ratings.

The Wizard of Oz. I hid under the seat when the flying monkeys showed up.

Son of Frankenstein. The monster carrying a little boy about my age 
through dark tunnels.

The Uninvited. Ghosts with long wispy arms flailing out at us. Almost 
felt like 3D.

The Five Little Peppers. A little girl gets caught in quicksand.

A Disney cartoon where Pluto almost drowns.

Then there was one I can't identify where a girl is "going to have a 
baby" and has to find a husband. (I think it was during WWII and her 
boyfriend had gone off to war.) For years I went around with the idea 
that at some point in life women would just spontaneously become pregnant.
