Your point about the children is a fair one. We did have someone get up in our audience and leave when the Other Mother threw off her disguise and put Coraline on "time out" with the ghost-children. However, her kids were tiny. Like, maybe 5-years-old and one who was still being carried everywhere! However, from reading other reviews that discuss childrens' reactions, I've revised my opinion on what kids can handle.
And I agree with you about the eyes/souls thing. I had almost forgotten about that.
