    Water Power

    Requiem for a Dream and Last Exit to Brooklyn were pretty nasty to watch as well.

    Love a film that makes you feel like you've been punched in the guts. The first above really does that.

    Not seen A Serbian Film in full yet but what I have seen was pretty brutal alright.

    Good god, googled that and read the wikipedia article on the real case. The Japanese are truly capable of unimaginable things. Also, the culprits got sentences of such leniency even the Irish judicial system couldn't match.

    I am not one for watching horror/shocking/brutal etc movies. The one which stayed with me for years was a movie I saw in the Cinema *Last Exit Brooklyn* - it gave me nightmares for years.

    The fact it all really happened added to the horror and gruesomeness.

    Even 15 years after seeing it, I still feel sick when I think about it.

    Fargo is not actually based on real events, they just put that at the end to add to the film. There is a famous case of a Japenese (I think) woman going to the town to search for the money as she believed it was real.

    I'm not entirely sure if you're serious here....but you might want to look into that claim that it's a true story and all happened ;)

    Yeah Defo, "The Human Centipede" is the sickest thing I have ever seen by a mile. Really disturbing!!

    He's making a sequel, "The Human Centipede 2", and the director has been quoted as saying that the sequel is going to make the first film seem like 'my little pony'.

    Fcuking twisted!!

    Second most disturbing movie is 'Irreversible'.

    Human Centipede was on Sci-fi (i think) a few months ago, I was just flicking channels one evening...I mean, sci-fi? It was absolute sick-fi !! Only 'watched' a few minutes, had seen enough !!

    For a movie I actually sat down and watched in full, I personally thought 'Wolf Creek' was pretty shocking. Watched it at a friends house and had to drive home after it that night, was terrified my car would break down and I'd be 'rescued' by a psycho like that film !!:eek:

    Would actually make me think twice about doing the whole driving through the Oz outback thing.

    Orwell's 1984 starring John Hurt was also shocking, but no more than the book.

    An Inconvenient Truth.

    When I saw it I realised that we are killing our own planet and that we will do absolutely nothing to prevent it. Then I realised I will die before the worst stuff happens and I felt better.

    Yup it's pretty horrific alright & fact it's based on real events is sickening. Human Pork Chop also based on a true story, this one being Chinese. A truly nasty film but hard not to watch. (There are actually 2 HPC's - the second of which I included in my list above as The Untold Story - if anyone interested in the story behind it be sure to check out the correct one, i.e. the one where a prostitute is kidnapped by her pimp over a drug debt).

    EDIT: This one -

    It was claimed at the time that it was based on real-life events. Thanks for clearing that up - doesn't make it any less gruesome though!

    Anyway, since then it's only been chick flicks for me!

    New York Ripper is quite unpleasant but brilliant. Directed by the maestro Fulci.

    Thank you maestro.

    Trailer - NSFW

    Most convincing luncatic ever in this one.

    +1 for The Human Centipede....some sick mind to come up with that one!! Felt seriously disturbed after watching that.Even though it's so out there and unbelievable,it does get under your skin:eek:
    Wolf Creek and the Bone Collector are another two that scared the sh*te out of me!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,298 ✭✭✭Namlub


    The Cove.

    Speaking of which, that's definitely one of the most shocking things I've seen. I'm way more affected by stuff like that than Hostel or Saw tbh


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,136 ✭✭✭✭How Soon Is Now


    Always kinda laugh at people over reacting in these kinda threads.

    I collect all this kinda stuff and have alot of it i pick it up online as a hobby really none of it has ever bothered me i laugh at how crazy alot of it can be.

    There just films/tv shows/clips etc.....

    None of it would ''Shock'' or ''Disturb'' and i am not just saying that be a big man.

    To be honest i find most of the films people mentioned as being sick disturbing shocking so on to be fairly tame.

    I dunno but stuff happening to humans usually does not bother me. If it was something happening to a dog be a different story.

    Or the fact that the killing and dismemberment of the animals was real?

    Like i said before if it was a dog maybe i would of been a bit uncomfortable about it otherwise to me it didnt bother me.

    I had chicken for dinner for all we know that was probley dismembered and so on as well..... life goes on.

    I'd consider making a film where the shell is ripped off a live turtle, to give on example, when that could easily have been faked a lot more cruel than the chicken thing but I guess everyone's different...

    I should hope so otherwise you'd have looked like a vile caricature of Henry VIII biting into a whole chicken and grease dripping down your chin.

    I'd lay money on it that the chicken you had for dinner was dismembered after it had it's neck wrung.

    the hills have eyes, tbh i didnt like it :eek: sometimes horrors that are too real in that way are very offputting, and sickening in a way imho


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,545 ✭✭✭SteoL

    The acting (for the most part) was indeed crap but probably adds to the realism (in terms of the "found footage") . The soundtrack is fantastic.
    The animal scenes are brutal to watch, really uncalled for and unnecessary. Punishment for adultery and the dismemberment and consumption of the crew are fantastic scenes,
    those last 20 mins or so really pack a punch IMO. More so than anything I've seen before or since.

    The Italian magistrates obviously thought the same given that Deodato was arrested for making a snuff movie (such was the realism of those final scenes) and had to get his cast members out of hiding.

    After reading that Wiki entry, I don't think I'll ever watch it. I mean, once you know the kind of things that happen in it, why would you want to watch it?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 287 ✭✭JohnnyTodd


    With most films I would tend to agree. THis film however offers something a little different for the viewer. Very intense scenes throughout the movie with no "ending" as such

    I appreciate you've read the story and know the outcome but feel you can still watch it without knowing every step

    Someone email it to me when I was in college. I am still traumatised from having watched it. Honestly do not under any circumstances watch it, especially with sound. Honestly just don't watch it.

    I think one of the first times she was in my house i threw on one of the faces of death yokes lol.

    She also thinks The Human Centipede was a load of ****e with very little in it to get fussed over.

    Can see why i love this girl :P

    End of the day the films mentioned where designed to try and shock people some more then often will fall into this trap.
    The rest just see them for what they are.

    I'm the same. I don't think I will ever be able to bring myself to watch that film. Just reading the plot makes me feel queasy.

    Cannibal Holocaust and Cannibal Ferox are cool movies.

    Not bothered about the animal scenes - certainly not a reason to condemn it.

    I don't even think the animal scenes were uncalled for or gratuitiuos. They were perfectly relevant to the plot and I think it was quite inteligent to have them included.

    I put off watching Cannibal Holocaust for about 10 years because people kept telling me how shocking and outrages and scaring the movie was. Finally watched it and the most shocking thing about it was that it wasn't at all shocking and was actually quite a good film.

    The Girl Next Door ( 2007 --NOT the comedy one)

    I think it is loosely based on a true story. Seriously ****ed up and depressing. Had to not watch one of the final scenes.
    Regretted watching it tbh. It's seriously sick.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 457 ✭✭Scarlet42


    Chitty Chitty Bang Bang .. the Original 1968 version (not the crappy broadway show) .. especially the childcatcher guy .. my 5yr and 3yr olds disappear like a shot with one mention of "free lollypops"

    supposedly based on a true story! :D

    oh and don't mention "Darby O'Gill and the Little People" with its Death Coach!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,084 ✭✭✭Pete M.


    The rockumentary 'Hated' which follows GG Allin from the Murder Addicts is pretty fcuked up.

    And it's for real.

    If you think the film is bad you should read the book by Jack Ketchum. Truly a horrific read, one of the most (if not THE most) horrific I've read.
