Wanted to see what people thought were the most disturbing scenes they've ever seen in a movie were. Now there are so many to name but the few that come to mind are:

The end of Sleepaway Camp, I wont tell you if you haven't seen it, but oh my fucking god are you kidding me.

Theres a scene in Spike Lee's Good Fences where Danny Glover and Whoopi Goldberg have sex and thats pretty fucking disturbing to me.

Rosie O'donnell in S&M gear in Exit to Eden made me gag a little.

A few scenes in Passion are pretty bad, and Night and Fog has a lot of pretty bad scenes that'll make you turn your head.

Pretty much the last half hour of Requiem for a Dream was hard to watch....

Passion of course had some pretty crazy stuff...

Beginning of Saving Private Ryan as well (the whole "guts" thing)

Then ya got fuckin Kathy Bates naked in About Schmidt :eek:

Maybe this was hard to watch cuz I was little, but I remember the endless beating and raping of the Vietnamese girl in the movie Casualties of War with Sean Penn and Michael J. Fox... Gaddam that was hard to enure...

Same thing goes for when the Alien Queen in Aliens rips Bishop in half with her tail, and also the woman who was colonized in the Alien goop, begging to be killed before a chestburster popped through her (I was young again! :p)

And of course my child-hood traumatizing expericence at age 5 when I watched the PG-13 rated "The Gate" where the kid uses a shard of glass to stab the eyeball in the palm of his hand! :eek:

Someguy told me to watch that movie!! What a bastard! I hate that kind of stuff... I'm gonna bitch-slap him next time I see him online...

Lettsee, disturbing scenes... Uh, the scene in Hellraiser where the dude doesn't have any skin: that was gross. The beginning of the movie The Core where the birds are flying all over and smacking into buildings (I have a thing for birds, so that really bothered me.) ...

Speaking of birds; there's a documentary called Winged Migration that I thought was gonna be awesome... but they showed some horrific stuff that traumatized me... I can't believe it was rated G!!! (There's a bird with a broken wing on the beach and all of these crabs swarm over it... made me sick to my stomach.) I had to turn it off. Nature is brutal...

The first part of Irreversible is definitely pretty messed up. But I would have to go with I Spit On Your Grave and Cannibal Holocaust (pretty much everything in both movies)... man those movies have some really fucked up stuff.

The very first one that comes to mind:

That scene in American History X where Edward Norton beats up the black kid on the street.. Especially that slomo part with the pavement.. Even writing these words down make me shiver.. :(

Irreversible - Fire Extinguisher.

Of all the flicks I've seen that short little bit shocked me the most.

AHX - black kid and the pavement......ouch man

Requiem for a Dream - Jared Leto's drug abused arm............ouch man!!

Also i seem to remember the ending of Event Horizon being pretty messed up, been a while since ive seen it, so memory has faded as to how bad/graphic it was.

I didn't know you didn't like that disturbing stuff.

Let me think of disturbing scenes

-Visitor Q: A man is having sex with a corpse(yes, a corpse)and starts going on about how she is getting wet, calling it the mystery of life. He puts his hand down to feel and when he brings his hand up it's covered in shit. He then screams out "It's not the mystery of life, IT'S SHIT!" Disturbing, but I could not stop laughing. The rigor mortis scene after had me in stitches

-Requiem for a Dream: The climax of the picture

-Ichi The Killer: The nipple torture scene.....if you want to see a .gif of it click HERE (http://img174.exs.cx/img174/4909/ichi5ha.gif) But it is VERY GRAPHIC

-Ong-Bak: The breaking of the arm and leg

I would say the last half of Quills was a real Mind Fuck. It took me days to get over the dark twistedness of this movie. Closer gave me almost the same feeling. Traveling to the dark side of humans can be quite an adventure.

I apologise for being a twat, but that's actually Kakihara that does that.

I'd go with the nipple torture mentioned by someguy for sheer wince factor.

***Spoilers for Dumplings, The Piano Teacher, Cries & Whispers, The War Zone, Scum, Irreversible, OIdboy, Salo, The Tin Drum and Society***

Dumplings (Three... Extremes)

Seriously fucked-up throughout but *rather big spoiler* the self-performed abortion in the bath tub *spoiler end* really takes the biscuit!

The Piano Teacher and Cries & Whispers

Both scenes involving the mutilation of genitals. Yum!

The War Zone

Jessie being anally raped by Dad, as Tom spies on them from the outside.

Scum

The suicide scene, it's the sheer desperation of it all as he regrets what he has done...and the blood seeping through pristine white sheets.

Irreversible

The notorious rape sequence.

Oldboy

I have to own up to retching at the squid eating scene. Bah, I'm such a pussy!

Salo

The shit-eating, the scalping, the bollock burning...need I go on?

The Tin Drum

The whole 'tone' of the film disturbs me if I'm honest...but stand-out disturbing moments include the lady gorging herself to death on tinned fish, the eel-infested horses head being pulled from the sea and the slightly warped love sequence.

Society

The sweaty, incestual, melty, fleshy mass "shunting" at the end. Mmm, fisting never looked so appealing! Jebus wept...:o

More to come.

Thriller - When the girlīs eye is cut out with a scalpel. You actually see the scalpel enter the eyeball. It has been said that they actually used a real dead body for that scene, and it looks so real I canīt think of any other explanation.

Scenes in "KIDS" are pretty disturbing. Havent seen it in awhile, but I remember it being pretty disturbing.

"Henry: Portrait of a serial killer" has a scene with an entire family thats pretty disturbing as well. If you've seen this movie, you know what I'm talking about.

Also, the subliminal white face in the Exorcist(the new version)

EVENT HORIZON.

Holy shit that was fucked up. I was just expecting some chessy sci-fi movie, and damn, it turned into some Hellish torture shit.

The Young Son
02-17-2005, 06:28 AM
The Passion - Most of the movie. In particular the scourging scene.

Event Horizen - When they play back the footage of what happened to the other crew. Ughhh.

The Ring - When you first see the curled up corpse of the girl in the closet. Freaky shit man. Fucking freaky.

The Exorcist - Regan doing the spider crawl down the stair. I am getting chills just typing this.

Oh man, you haven't seen the full-length 90 minute version. There's a lot more development and an even more fucked up ending(yes, even worse than the abortion you're talking about).

Oldboy

I have to own up to retching at the squid eating scene. Bah, I'm such a pussy!

I swear I am the only one not disturbed by that.

By the way, thank you for reminding me of dumplings. I can't believe I forgot about that! Some others


SPOILERS FOR THE AVIATOR



The Aviator-the second plane crash that puts Hughes in the hospital. Disturbing at first(just with that leg cracking)but soon a more slapstick comedy type. It's a perfect moment to play Benny Hill music over.



END SPOILERS

Million Dollar Baby-Putting a broken nose back in place....just ow

Audition-The whole fucking ending....mmmm vomit(Fun Fact: That was actually the actresses vomit, and the guy actually lapped it up)

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory-Fuck you Willy Wonka, just fuck you

Suicide Club-The scene where the woman is cutting up a raddish and "misses" but keeps "missing." Mark down the dog stomping too.

Gozu-The birth

Kill Bill Volume 2-Stomping on the eye

The Woodsman-The whole bench scene and Mos Def's stories about victims of pedophilia("Ever see an 8 year old sodomized in half?")

Creep-The "operation" scene with that poor woman who gets the saw in a place where saws should not go(people say it didn't go there but I'm certain it did). Oh yeah, why did that movie get an 18 anyways? I didn't find it that violent.

Dagon-The old man getting skinned

That's all I have for now I guess

Yes.

Also, when Charlize Theron cuts her own throat in Devil's Advocate, Tom Hanks knocking his own tooth out with an ice skate in Cast Away, and the Hammer to the toes treatment on Mel Gibson in Payback. All of those were kinda tough to watch.

Perhaps "disturbed" isn't the right word...but when it started making it's merry way up a nostril I cringed like fuck.

I've got a bit of a 'thing' for facial orifices, so Takashi Miike's fetish with poking sharp objects into ears (Fudoh, Ichi...) doesn't please me either.

During the D-Day sequence in Saving Private Ryan, Miller tells his man to radio in their status, only to see that said man has a big hole where his face was. Chilling to say the least!

All the scenes in CALIGULA, especially when the man is castrated and his gentials are thrown to the dogs for them to eat.

All the scenes in SALO, especially the shit-eating scene.

The 40 minute long rape sequence in I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE.

The ending of IN THE REALM OF THE SENSES. :eek:

The rape sequence in IRREVERSIBLE.

TheRecluse
02-17-2005, 06:47 PM
The first half of The Last House on the Left really disturbed me when I first saw it, which was at a pretty young age. That was pretty rough.

The nail through the ballsack scene in The Serpent in the Rainbow.

Also a lot of scenes in the movie Ted Bundy. It's a lot more disturbing because it all really happened.

And finally, the scene in Alien vs Predator when Paul WS Anderson raped both the Alien and Predator franchises, respectivelly, in order to make a terrible movie and to lose respect from horror fans throughout the world.....

I'm sorry, I hold a grudge....

I just seen Irreversible the other day. God watching Monica Bellucci get savagely raped for almost 10 mins. and beaten into a coma is the sickest thing I've ever seen on film.:(
I think she's the most beautiful person ever birthed, and I could hardly even recognize her when I seen her on the gurnee. That movie made me feel things I've never felt before during a movie.

Yes, it disturbed me mightily. I can handle most gore, it's the feeling you get from movies like Kids that bothers me more. And the scene in Requiem For a Dream where Jennifer Connelly is on a coffee table at a party.

Last Exit To Brooklyn
SPOILER!!!

Jennifer Jason Leigh as a hooker in Last Exit to Brooklyn- a horrific, long drawn out gang rape beating. All the more disturbing because she heads out there knowing what will happen and she's punishing herself.
