Disturbing scenes in movies

[Ronnie Gardocki]

Out of curiosity, are any of you guys bothered by the increase of full frontal male nudity in recent films? Many guys I know seem to take it almost personally.

Watch Observe and Report, funny movie, with way too much dick waggling in it.

Some of the most disturbing imagines or implications I've seen come from movies like Jack Ketchum's The Girl Next Door, and I Spit on Your Grave.

The Hills Have Eyes original and remake have NOTHING on these two films when it comes to rape, torture, and murder.

Take the movie Bruno for example. Yes, it was a comedy, but it was in such bad taste. The overtones in that movie were outrageous, so stereotypical, dicks wobbling everywhere, gay sex, swingers scene with the whip, etc. The whole movie is simply fucked up.

And I know its a movie and its fake too, but Hostel always struck me as one of those movies that shouldn't exist. Torture is simply crude and unnecessary. Whether for peoples enjoyment, or for not.

Glad you're not the only one who found the exposure to be too much in Bruno. It's still a pretty funny movie but it's got nothing on Borat.

The first Hostel was decent and had some good torture scenes. The 2nd movie is garbage.

I think every SAW film has a moment that makes me cringe.

Any movie that has a kid get murdered, or raped, or something is terribly sad. I'm such a softy for that stuff. Like, when I saw The Lovely Bones, I was almost to tears man. It sucks. Also, when I watched Funny Games (cult classic, if you haven't watched this, go watch it NOW) I nearly cried when the baby died.

Never bothered with the second. Well, unless you consider Turistas to be Hostel 2 like I did.

Worse part of Hostel was the Achilles slicing. Screw the eye and the torch, I flinched at that scene.

Kids dying is always taboo. Like in Pet Semetary, when little Gage died. They didn't even have to show it for me to feel the impact. Then he came back.

That's a good thing. Was Turistas painful for you to watch? Because it was for me.

Oh, yeah. But I can enjoy horrible movies for the sake of them too. Horribly bad and cheesy has its place in my heart.

Same here. The horribly bad movies are good for the lulz.

As Rob Zombie once said, if any movie makes it feel like you are there makes it more real. Anything involving the eyes, I have to cringe. Rape doesn't really disturb me but if it's just filthy or dirty rape it's pretty hard to watch. Anything involving the harm of children makes me uncomfortable.

Anyone see Cape Fear? The remake with De Niro. Every scene when he was with the daughter of the lawyer was just creepy. And when she sucked his thumb, uggh! She was so innocent and he was so diabolic in that movie, it was a great movie but it was creepy.

Go watch the Audition, people.

Fuck that. I know a couple of friends who still can't finish that movie.

The craziest thing i ever seen in a movie is where a girl got her clit bite off & the cannibal spit it out back at her. That movie was some crazy cannibal movie tho.

The rape scene that threadstarter mentioned was wild too.

Antichrist-Came out last year and holy fuck. This movie will fuck your shit up. One of the worst things was when she uses a plank to break his manhood (literally) and jacks him off until he jizzes blood all over the place.

Then there's Cannibal Holocaust. A 1980s mockumentary type horror movie that features shit that is just beyond horrendous. Just look at the content advisory from IMDB-http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0078935/parentalguide

And speaking of rape I'd be remiss if I didn't mention Irreversible which features a 10 minute ass-rape scene.

Speaking of sex in film. Where do you draw the line between straight porn and an "art film that features unsimulated sex"?

the intention of the filmmaker

Last House on the Left: (the remake) Movie had a drawn out rape scene that was disturbing to watch. While the actual event itself was a catalyst to the plot, I think too much time was focused on it for the shock value.

This.

I can watch movies where people get their throats slashed. I can wathc movies where people get body parts cut off. Where there's alot of blood involved. I like horror/zombie movies so I see it alot. Weird though how I don't like shows like ER cause of the blood though. Anyway.... That rape scene in that movie really got to me. It went on way too long. I was actually going to stop watching it during that scene. Rape as a whole just bothers me.

 

[xFrenchKissx]

Are rape scenes when men are the victims more hard to watch then rape scenes where women are?

It's a safe bet to say that child rape scenes are the worst.

Men Behind the Sun. Some of the loveliness to be shown in this film include: a live cat thrown into a room full of starving rats, a (supposedly real) corpse of a boy is slowly autopsied, a man is placed in a pressure chamber until his intestines blow out of his anus, a woman is tied to a post outside in the freezing cold while buckets of cold water are being dumped over her head to test the effects of frostbite, then her hands are plunged into boiling hot water, the skin peeling right off the bones. And those are just the parts I am mentioning. Also, this movie is 'based on true events'

And I find it bizarre that I can watch all of this type of blood, gore, and exploitation and yet, movies like Old Yeller and Marley and Me make me cry. I'm such a pussy.

On a side note, Cannibal Holocaust, has anyone here actually seen it?
