the cook the theif his wife and her lover

that one will fuck with your head big time

Drew,

Disturbing yes. But outstanding film making - totally. Creative, inventive, bizarre, crass, crude, sensitive. Brilliant performances and great art direction and fine, fine directing.



Yes I said it and i am glad.

no offense intended

"Freaks"

"The Exorcist" -- A "friend" of mine talked me into seeing it.

"Rosemary's Baby" -- A "friend" of mine talked me into seeing it.

Said "friend" and I separated about a year later. Talking me into going to see those two films plus the stupidity of my not walking out of the theatre, did not a healthy relationship make.
I should have seen the "hand writing" on the wall but was blinded by the good "????"

 

[carniolus]

Oh yeah.... i did forgot to mention The cook, the thief, his wife and her lover!!!.... a tad disturbing, yes.... but OMG!!!... how can you not love the decor and scenery?!?!... perfection!!!.... it's a cinema-meets-painting kind of thing!... wonderful!

... although the boy treble did get on my nerves a bit....

Okay, here's my two cents...disturbing in a good way, meaning I liked the movie alot, "Apartment Zero," so f'd up, but just totally engrossing. Now for disturbing in a bad way, "Artificial Intelligence" or "A.I." This has to be the worst multi-million dollar movie ever made. Have you seen it? It is absolutely ridiculous all the twist and turns that the movie makes. I could not believe that Steven Spielberg had his name attached to such a piece of s##t. I watched the whole thing (well over two hours) only because I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Anyone else with comments on this movie? I have friends who love it and I just do not see what they saw I guess.

When I was in high school and still trying to convince myself that I could like girls, my first real date and I went to see "Clockwork Orange." I was in love with Malcom McDowell, guess that sort of set the tone for the rest of my life. Never had another date with a gal. Kinky, disturbing and erotic, and quite unforgettable.

 

[springboksfan]

Okay, random time:

1. Angels in America
2. Failsafe (w/ Henry Fonda)
3. Longtime Companion
4. The Laramie Project (must see...but not alone--you need someone to hug)
5. It's My Party (see above)
6. The M.O. of M.I.
7. Salem's Lot (okay, it screwed with my head when I was a kid!)
8. The Bad Seed (it's The Good Son done right)
9. Whatever Happened to Baby Jane (Classic!)

SEVEN was definitely the most disturbing movie I have ever seen! (*U*)
The events taking place during the movie were really creepy and sick/twisted. But then there was the box at the end...WHOA!!!

Another one that was disturbing in a very different way was 'JACKASS...the Movie'. Not one to to watch while eating. (*p*)

NO ONE MENTIONED HAPPINESS!

Todd Solondz is so amazing. He did Welcome to the Dollhouse as well.
Okay. I'll start with Dollhouse. Heater Matarazzo stars as Dawn Weiner, a Jr High student in suburban Jersey. She is tortured by fellow classmates all the time.
Scene: Dawn sits down in the cafeteria by a loner girl. A group of cheerleaders come up to the table, laughing.
Cheerleader: "Dawn, we were wondering - are you a lesbian?"
Dawn: "No."
Loner Girl: "She's lying. She just made a pass at me."
Cheerleaders, laughing: "LESBO! LESBO! LESBO!"

Scene: Dawn tells her teacher that a boy in her class (Brendon Sexton III) is trying to cheat off her test. He corners her in the hallway.
Brandon: "Yo Weiner, you better get ready, 'cause at three o' clock today, I'm gonna RAPE you!"

Yeah. Todd Solondz also did Happiness a few years later. My jaw was on the floor by the time it was over.
A father stops at a convenience store on his way home from work. He's looking at the Teen Beat magazines. I thought he had a daughter and was picking one up for her. Oh, how I gasped when he got in the backseat of his car and began masturbating to the pages of underage boys.

He has a conversation with his 10-year-old son Billy toward the end of the film:
Billy: "Dad?"
Dad: "Yes, Billy?"
Billy: "Everyone at school is saying things about you."
Dad: "Who is everyone?"
Billy: "Kids, you know. Everyone."
Dad: "What are they saying?"
Billy: "That... you're a... serial rapist. And a pervert."
Dad: "You mean, like what they painted on the house?"
Billy: "Dad, did you, um... uh... with... Johnny Grasso and Ronald Farber?"
[His father raped his two friends: Johnny, when he spent the night at Billy's house, and Ronald, when Ronald's parents left him home alone for the weekend.]
Dad: "Yes."
Billy: "What... did you do?"
Dad: "I touched them."
Billy: "What do you mean, exactly, touched?"
Dad: "I fondled them."
Billy: "What for?"
Dad: "I couldn't help myself."
Billy: "What else?"
Dad: "I... I unzipped myself."
Billy: "You... you mean, masturbated?"
Dad: "No."
Billy: "Then what?"
Dad: "I... made love."
Billy: "What do you mean?"
Dad: "I fucked them."
Billy: "What was it like?"
Dad: "It was... it was great."
Billy, crying: "Would you do it again?"
Dad, crying as well: "Yes."
Billy: "Would... would you ever... fuck me?"
Dad: "No. I'd jerk off instead."

Yeah. I quoted that exactly from the DVD. I was in tears by the end of that conversation.
So, that's the most disturbing film I've seen.
I want to see Ken Park, Irreversible, and Araki's earlier stuff (Nowhere and Totally Fucked Up).

Another two films that made me close my eyes because I was so freaked out were David Lynch's Lost Highway (the scenes involving Robert Blake) and Mulholland Drive (that bum behind the diner made me cry).

 

[pacz]

"Happiness" was definately a disturbing movie. So were:

Requim for a dream
Saw
The Woodsman

I forgot to post my feelings on Requiem. I saw the Director's Cut a few years ago and just thought, "BOO HOO HOO. That's what drugs are gonna do."
The most disturbing scene was the "ass-to-ass" scene. Simply because Jennifer Connely's character had reduced to such a level simply for money and blow.
Wayans's and Leto's characters just annoyed me. And the mom? Whatever.

And the Woodsman! Oh, I loved that one. I did get weirded out when Walter was talking to Robin (that's the girl's name, right?) in the park. I felt so much for him, and I was praying that he wouldn't go back. I almost turned it off because I didn't want to see him get hurt. When he asked her to sit on his lap, I thought I would going to die. I'm glad it ended the way it did.

Punch-Drunk Love did the same thing for me. I felt so much for Adam Sandler's character that I didn't want to finish it, for fear that he was going to get hurt. Plus the cruelity of his sisters made me wince a little.

The two most disturbing movies Ive seen are Le Bete (The Beast) which is a french film I saw that one of my mates bought round it basically an erotic rework of beauty and the beast and includes a scene where a young lady is raped by the beast and scenes of animal sex its really twisted.

Another disturbing film is a Hong Kong explotation film called The Untold Story also known as Bunman: Untold Story. It centres around a restraunt owner who has killed the previous owners and his entire family and minced them up and put them into BBQ pork buns in one part after been tortured by the police it shows in graphic detail the murder of the family including the children. also you also see another women get killed by having chopsticks violently forced up her. I wasonly 12 when I first saw this film and ive seen it since and im still disturbed by it.

 

[Twisly]

The chain saw massacre (the part when the killer put salt at the guy's cutted legs, and when his friend need to kill him) and Toolbox murder (all killing parts!)

 

[pausanias_usa]

The Incredibly Talented Mr. Ripley -- went to see this with a new acquaintance and at the end we both left the theater looking at each other nervously, "just who the HELL is this?"

Prince of Darkness -- freaked me out when I first saw this on tv alone at home at night. <shudder>

David and Lisa -- watched this over at a friend's house a long time ago when psychedelics were popular. Wrenching.

Elephant by Alan Clarke 1988. Essentially a compilation of eighteen murders on the streets of Belfast, without explanatory narrative or characterisation and shot in a cold, dispassionate documentary style, the film succinctly captures the horror of sectarian killing.

After each killing, the camera dwells on the bodies slumped on floors or draped over desks for longer than is comfortable, forcing the viewer to confront the brutality of their deaths.

The title comes from a quote by Irish writer Bernard MacLaverty who described the Troubles as like having an elephant in your living room, getting in the way of everything - but after a while you learn to live with it.

 

[Corny]

wasn't elephant also a columbine like movie? that one was quite disturbing, too.

also that "johnny park" or so was quite disturbing, but nothing tops "baise-moi" ("rape me" is the american title i believe) thats the most sick and disgusting movie ever.

Alan Clarke's Elephant is the basic inspiration for Gus Van Sant's cannes-winning
film of the same name.

Interesting movie. I checked it out on IMDB. Might actually look more into it. Is it DISTURBING or just really sad?

I love "Twin Falls Idaho". Excellent film. I did not find it disturbing in the least....more dreamlike and sad.

Disturbing films to me:

The Exorcist (original)
Irreversible
Funny Games

For the life of me I can't see how the Talented Mr Ripley could be disturbing.

 

[ozguy]

Two of the greatest holocaust movies ever made .... Sophie's Choice and Schindler's List. The horror and degradation of life in the Nazi concentration camps was never more realistically and brutally depicted.
