i personally dislike the scene where 'henry' is cutting your man up in the bath with a saw... thats not really somethin a 12 year old should see:dunno:


8mm ... quite disturbing i thought

The best thing about Requiem for a Dream was the music from the multi talented Clint Mansell.The main them was used for the trailer to Lord of The Rings,The Two Towers.And yes it was a film about addictions not heroin. If you watch the extras on the dvd you'll hear Darren Aronofsky talk about it.
One of the most disturbing films I've ever watched was Breaking The Waves with Emily Watson.I came out of the cinema with a sick feeling and couldn't get it out of my head for a week!

billy the squid

Saw a film when i was about 10 called "parents" about canibalism which turned me off meat for about six months.

12 monkeys i found disturbing also the music sent a chill down your spine.

Apocolipse now

mentalimplosion

yeah audition is pretty disturbing and also american history x. this isn't THE most disturbing film but i found it a little... discomforting at times.

jank

Battlefield Earth

Disturbing how bad it is

blobert

I can remember being deeply disturbed by "Willy Wonka" as a child, I still find it quite a traumatic film to watch. I have no idea why...

Uthur

See my animal cruelty post on 'Weekend'. That sh1t still gives me the willies. Damn Frenchies!!

I agree - was that really necessary?

Anyone see Akira Kurosawa's Dreams? It was on TV last week. Not exactly disturbing, but by no stretch of the imagination a normal film either...

Have to agree ... especially at the end where he removes the guy's mask

SouperComputer

i still think spiceword is by far the most disturbing!

Cactus Col

Seen most of those films, and really didn't think too much of them, definetly didn't find them disturbing at all, probably because I felt that they were going out of their way to be so ...

however

there is one film that I'd have trouble watching a second time

and that's the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre

Dear God, spare us the sight of those pendulous mammeries hanging and swaying, hypnotically in the evening breeze....

that scared the pants off me as a kid. rewatched it recently and its not scary at all.

MarcusGarvey

Tubb Girl and Goatse Guy Ride Again.

That was a nasty movie. One of the few movies to be removed from the IMDB listings.

Kersh

Repo Man. It just disturbs me. its the old man in the car.
Scares me. And the film doesnt go out of its way to disturb you. Its weird.

neXus9

When I was a kid I found those freaky guys with the rollerblades for hands and feet (wheelers) in return to oz quite scary.

Archvillain

childcatcher in chitty-chitty bang bang.
no contest.

also the first scary moment in the original texas chainsaw massacre when the big leatheface guy opens a door from nowhere, drags the guy inside and shuts the door all in one movement.

neXus9

I hate where leatherface just grabs the girl and plants her on a meathook. Once you're on a meathook you aint going nowhere!!! You're fu*ked!

Aurther Hugh

D'arby O'Gill and the Little People.....dark

mayordenis

not the film in general but one scene from fight club where he really beats seven shades of sh*te out of the blonde fella its just that the meathook thing is less likely than being beaten up.

Yo Mamma

I have to agree,

Texas Chainsaw Massacre has a couple of disturbing scenes..

Where they try and get the dead/almost dead Granddad to smash her head in with a hammer...

Weird, never could figure out if that guy was dead or not......I have it on video and I could swear that he moves a couple of times......

:eek:

neXus9

It was an axe, they were actually trying to get the grandad to decapitate her!!!

Nasty Sh*t. Don't know how she got out of it.

Wacker

Nexus, I suppose I could be wrong but I'm pretty certain it was a hammer. Not the conventional sort of hammer, though. The kind that you would imagine hitting a chisel with, if that helps.

I was really freaked out by the teeth on the kerb scene in American History X. That was pretty bad. I also thought Nikki Santoro's (Joe Pesci's) death in Casino was far from pretty.

Finally, "You didn't knock me down, Sugar Ray!" from Raging Bull. The ring-ropes were dripping blood!

Yeah casino, that probably would be the most violent scene that i've ever seen, in particular the bit where he was left in the hole and he started blowing these bubbles with his blood. You actually feel sorry for him, even though he was a complete pr*ck.

How about the other scene where Pesci puts this lad's head in a vice and pops out his eyeballs.

wild_eyed

are the silent hill video games based on any movies?
cause they were freaky. espically the nurses

mayordenis

no but there was supposed to be a film based on the gammes but it never came to be.

jill_valentine

The Silent Hill movie is still in production limbo...

Most disturbing film, that I'd have difficulty watching again would be...well...just a few of the bits from Blackhawk Down actually. Oh, that bit from Robocop where the badguys "operate" on the guy they think is a traitor still freaks me out...Its funny, straight up horror doesn't bother me so much...

neXus9

Oh, that bit from Robocop where the badguys "operate" on the guy they think is a traitor still freaks me out

Yeah, Kid:"I thought you were only going to scare him".

Cane: "Does he look scared"??

Actually, Silent Hill 2 has close ties with Jacob's Ladder. I can't specify right now since I haven't seen the film in ages...I'll get back to ya on that.

As for the deformed corpses and what not, the lead designer/animator of Silent Hill 2 claimed to draw inspiration from Francis Bacon, the Irish Expressonist Painter (says it on the bonus disc of SH2).
The nurses in Silent Hill 1 have no direct inspiration as far as I'm aware, but since the unreality is made by Sherry / Dhalia's Girl the nurses are representative of those who tried to care for her and were horrified by the sights they witnessed
In Silent Hill 2 they had tie in's with the lead characters wife, caring for her and what not, as well as a symbol of his sexual frustration by having short skirts and open blouses.

the_obsolete

As for a fudged up film...Manga's Akira and GenoCyber really fu*ked me over. Also Event Horizon, only the third film to ever scare me.

hagi_complex

Disturbing films...hmmmm.

Irreversible
Gummo (simultaneously one of the funniest also)
Julien Donkey Boy
Happiness
A Short Film About Killing

Tusky

Audition
13 ghosts - Only film ive ever walked out of the cinema on, it was THAT ****.
Ichi The Killer
Requiem for a dream - "I have no legs !"
Kids
Seven

go to www.bumfights.com that is truely disturbing...

Embee...did you list thirteen as disturbing because its so bad or because it disturbed you ? ...

Tusky

someone mentioned jacobs ladder.... wouldn call it disturbing...or maybe I would, a litle bit - either way its a ****ing brilliant movie and not enough people have seen it , GO WATCH IT NOW...bastards.

the_obsolete

No i just said it was inspiration for Silent Hill 2

Quatre Mains

ditto. I watched that witha few friends and when it came to the bit about the doctor taking about the problem he had discovered with the baby we were in pure disbelief, it was like 'Is it just me or does that mean what I think it means?'

- surpised to see people list Das Idiotern and Happiness in negative terms.
I found Das Idiotern a complete hoot. While Happiness does have a big shock factor I found it to be an excellent film. Paedos aren't going to go away if we stop making films about them FFS.

jill_valentine

There's a number of connections that can be made between Jacobs Ladder and SH. One of the endings to SH1, for one thing. The whole hospital phobia, the metal grates, and a lot of the imagery. Valtiel, the wobbly headed guy looks awfully like some of Jacobs ..er...friends.

But the most direct reference is in SH3. The train station is named after the one from JL, though the name escapes me. My favourite movie reference in SH though isn't a Jacobs Ladder one. It's the newspaper vending machine. The headline for the day is "Bill Skins Fifth".

TCamen

I can't think of an entire movie that completely freaks me out, but the people in the mirrors in Poltergiest III totally freaked me out when I was a kid *shudder*

Also, Trainspotting

the drug scenes with the baby crawling on the roof? That's messed up

I'd have Happiness in a disturbing films list because of the how it manipulates the audience to almost feel sorry for the paedophile. It's an excellent film, but disturbing for this reason.

jill_valentine

Thinking about it, short films can be quite good for disturbingness. For examples, see the astonishingly bleak Fifty Percent Grey, the very Silent Hill (and f**king terrifying) The French Doors, and the extremely disturbing Mama Look!

That's quite disturbing :eek:

Do you know that the song debaser by the pixies is about that film?

neXus9

That film actually came out in 1928. I didn't think it was that old.

There's a film called I spit on your grave. The film is basically about a girl who gets gang raped, and comes back to seduce her rapists...and castrate them! There's meant to be a scene where she castrates one guy in a bath, and nothing happens for a second, then there's this huge fountain of blood...:dunno:

No its not. The song is used over the end scene and credits. Debaser was wrote about ten years before the film was released and about five years before the book.

The girl is either Buster Keatons great grand niece or grand daughter. Not sure which.

Your thinking of Fight Club and Where Is My Mind, both of which are not Debaser or Un Chien Andalou

Supprised no ones mentioned Hanibal(silence of the lambs 2) yet, that bit with the brain eating
