I know he's supposed to be cute and amicable but I found him absolutely creepy, much more than Chucky or any other monster from my childhood. The scene where Elliot throws the ball into his garage and it is returned to him didn't let me sleep for weeks. My father once bought a small light to put on my bedroom's door so I wouldn't be so afraid, unfortunately it was a green light for whatever reason so it made things worse, I always imagined that horrible ET silhouette just standing at my door and raising his creepy finger to me :(.
cute and amicable? that is quite the opposite when he is sick. Those scenes when he's not doing well still scares me.

I also watched the movie 'Screamers' when I was knee high to a grasshopper. Scary stuff. The little kid who is a death dealing robot who so innocently says: "Can I come with you?" Made me lose sleep for weeks.
