the intonation and the facial expression and the situation itself controls the intended meaning for eg if the speaker sounds freindly or artificial with funny facial expressions, his intention is thus is to make u laugh whereas if the speaker sounds serious with wild looks then it must be then a threat to u!!

If Adam Sandler was saying it, then it was obviously from a comedy & was meant to be funny.
In general though, people tell you not to be afraid, so if someone is telling you to be afraid "be very afraid" then it's a warning that your fears are justified & you better watch out, there is some great imminent danger!

When Adam Sandler says it in a movie, usually he's using it as a punchline or just to be funny.
Anyone else saying, it's usually to be funny, too. For instance, your friend knows someone of the opposite sex who is attracted to you, but YOU don't like that person. This person who has a crush on you, or whatever, sees you in a public place, like a store or something, and spots you, waves at you and starts walking toward you. Your friend sees this and warns you: "Dude! Such-n-such is coming over to talk to you...Be AFRAID! BE VERY,VERY AFRAID!"
Your friend says this to be funny, because they know that this person who has a crush on you annoys you to no end. Does that make sense?
That's usually what it means to me. I think it's a line from a really OLD movie or show, like old Twilight Zone or something, I dunno exactly.

To be honest, it's just sounds like you be afraid. It's a warning or a threat.

It makes me think that Hillary might actually become President. That would make me very, very afraid.

Somebody's touting a movie with a lot of blood and screaming.

To be twice as scared as "very afraid".

It means that the person using that expression is being sarcastic.
