The reason they were creepy (specifically think about Lyra being led into that one room at Bolvangar and there was that person standing guard outside, with his golden retriever looking very very zoned out?) is because the adults were also experimented upon. They had their daemons sliced from them, but they didn't die; they were in fact, walking death because they had their soul sliced from them.
I hated the movie mostly because it infantalized the entire thing. Asriel was suppose to be showing the scholars of Jordan Grummon's head as well as that picture of Dust in the north. Lyra was fascinated with the head and all.
I'm not going to spare paper-writing time ranting about this, though. you heard my flaily tirades last night anyway.
