Most DISTURBING movie you have ever seen?

[Paws]

He's talking about Natural Born Killers like I read it.

 

[UncutAtlanta]

"A Case of Rape" staring Elizabeth Montgomery (Bewitched). Very violent, very poinent. Every male, gay or straight should view this film

What more can I say....

oh! hahahah. Whoops.

yeah Natural Born Killers is not so much disturbing as it is funny. Like come on, it's Woody and Juliet Lewis killing everyone.. The way that the film was made makes me hard to find it disturbing.

The most disturbing movie that I have ever seen I my entire life is a movie that I cannot remember the title of.

It was about this German family (mother,father,and young son) who go to their vacation house in the country. Once there,the come across two male drifters who are initially very friendly with the family (I remember one was very skinny and the other guy was a bit chubby. They both wore all white polo shirts and white shorts),but eventually they start mentally torturing them.

They shoot the father in the knee caps,and tie up the mother and son and play mental games with them. They ripped the mom's clothes off in front of the little boy and force him to watch.

At one point the little boy escapes to an abandoned house next door and you really think he is going to escape and get help but they catch him.

They then bring him back to the house and tie him up and force he and his mother to watch as they play Russian Roulette with the father. They eventually kill the father by shooting him through the head.

Then they start to torture the son and make the mother watch and they shoot him in the back of the head when he tries to run away.

After this they decide to take the family's boat (the house was near a lake) to find another family to torture. Then the mother tries to wriggle free from the ropes and they shoot her in the face,throw her body overboard and laugh hysterically.

The movie ends as the boat pulls to shore and the two guys knock on the door of another unsuspecting family.

I saw this movie a few times on The Sundance channel and I cannot remember the name of it!!

I asked Corny,but it didn't sound familiar to him...

Has anyone here seen it?????

It's called "Funny Games". I listed it as one of the most disturbing films I have seen. Took me a while to get over that one.

Thank you so much Liquid!!!!

You have no idea how much it has been bothering me that I couldn't remember the title of that movie. It was so fucking creepy and depressing.

Funny Games

I see someone mentioned "Heavenly Creatures". I was going to add that one - certainly an 'uncomfortable' movie to watch...but extremely well made.

I also chuckled when I saw "Cube" listed...it was different, but for me the 'disturbing' factor was alleviated by the fact that the girlfriend who talked me into seeing it just about leapt into my lap anytime the suspense became too much for her.

Glad to see someone mentioned "8mm." It truly made me feel like a piece of humanity died after seeing it. This sounds completely crazy, but I just feel like I was a more innocent person before I saw it.

The other movie that truly floored me was "Saving Private Ryan." I walked out of the theater just stunned. I'm a huge WWII buff, collect WWII Militaria and have even participated in some major reenactments. So being surrounded with the experience of realistic combat, with uniforms, weapons and vehicles that I was very familiar with just had a major impact on me.

Great post Henderson.

Cruising

No way man. I understand the plot was the disturbing part because a killer was stalking and murdering gay people. But the way that movie was filmed made it come off as cheap and just ridiculous. Movie made me laugh.

 

[henderson98]

I also chuckled when I saw "Cube" listed...it was different,

yeah I was shocked to see that someone mentioned that little Canadian Sci-Fi Psychological Thriller as well. What I found disturbing about it was imagininf myself being stuck in that place. yikes.

 

[sheep]

A low budget movie called FARGO. Think of disposing of someone in a wood chipper. Ya, for sure!
Sorry I can't get into the plot cos Chris Evans is coming over soon and I need to shave etc.

Faces of Death (any edition)

EWWW. omg. That pretty much should pretty much be at the top in any ones LIST. siiiick. I saw a few clips from one on the internet and i got sick. why do people make that kind of trash

 

[henderson98]

Alot of faces of death is fake,though. If you watch it all, you can see some of the parts have several different camera angles like it was an actual movie, or some of the stuff look obviously faek.

I dont think I have ever been able to sit through 2 minutes of it. Fake or not. Im a pussy. lol

 

[Rule-Of-Thirds]

In all honestly it has to be War of the Worlds. That film completely creeped me the fuck out. I never expected it to be so violent... and of course the following day it had to look really stormy out as I was driving home from work, too! Maybe I'm just a big wuss.

 

[raswain]

Aside from Faces Of Death, which I saw at a Halloween party once and was horrified for a long time afterward, I have to say Silence Of The Lambs is way up there as disturbing. I still remember sitting in the theater just staring at the screen in shock.

 

[justjoshoh]

The Cook, the Thief, His Wife & Her Lover ~ Peter Greenway is probably one of the most disturbing movies made. Actually, a lot of his work is disturbing.

 

[Dagger888]

The Hill Side Strangler...Good god man. Very graphic. It's about 2 demented guys who rape and kill prostitutes...True Story

 

[Funky]

Blair witch project

Requiem for a Dream
Saw
Memento

But Requiem for a Dream messed my head up for almost a year. I truly wasn't ready to watch it. i recommend it though, it's hauntingly beautiful. It is definetely the best movie I've ever seen. In my opinion, the scene where Sara is explaining to Harry about what it's like to be lonely and old is the most powerful cinema ever! And the director really captures what it's like to be insane.

Requiem For A Dream will gut you, chew you up and spit you out, but not before it stomps on your heart a thousand times until the end of the film.


Salo
Cannibal Holocaust
Last House on the Left

You couldn't have described it any better. So true.

 

[call_me_Dick]

Night of the Living Dead (Geo. Romero's original black and white)
......pretty tame now, but scared the hell out of me as a kid....zombie flicks
disturb me the most, when a friend or relative is converted into a mindless
canibal.

Pulp Fiction
......I wasn't prepared for the sudden extreme violence. Tarantino's other flicks
are now just comical in the bloodletting.

Saving Private Ryan
...... Good job of deglamorizing war. The violence was so graphic and lifelike.

Seven
..... The end where Brad's pregnant wife's head is discovered in the bag, not a
happy ending movie.....two innocents are killed to provoc a reaction.

What Dreams May Come (Robin Williams)
..... It shows that while we can make our own heavens, we certainly create our
own hells. I thought the drawn out depressive trip out of hell was inspired.
