    It wasn’t a movie per se. I thought it was when I was a kid, though. It’s an episode of “Friday the 13th: The Series” called “The Executioner”.

    I was like maybe 6 or 7 at the time.

    It starts with this guy in prison you see them take him to the electric chair and attempt to execute him. They botch it and the warden or whoever pretty much goes “oops, well by law we did technically carry out your sentence so you’re a free man now”

    He then goes on to become a dentist and uses a “cursed electric chair” as his dentist chair to take revenge on the world.

    This gave me a real fear of going to the dentist on top of just being a kid and being scared to go. Still hate going to the dentist (who doesn’t I guess)

    I used to play Myst at the time and that even made me feel uncomfortable in the Time Machine room with the dentist chair at the first island.

    edit: I watched it again as an adult and it was corny as hell

      And the other movie that scared the hell out of me was Superman III when Vera got sucked into the machine at the end and turned into an android.
