The most disturbing movies you've ever watched.

[Brainiac]

probably not scary for most people but the movie 'signs' freaks me the **** out....... I literally can't watch that at night

i yelled, like literally yelled at that scene, i dont know what happened to me, i was with my ex and i was waiting for something to come out but when that thing did i let out a "AAAHHHH" thankfully the theater crowd was so scared no one really said anything

These are my picks for some that have disturbed me and lingered in the recesses of my mind ever since. Note: I don't necessarily think excessive gore amounts to being 'disturbing' or unsettling. Take Cannibal Holocaust for example... the most haunting aspect of that film was the music. Anyway, a few off the top of my head:

Evil Dead Trap
Inside (easily the best horror film in the last 10 years)
Who Can Kill A Child
Nekromantik
Audition
Henry Portrait Of A Serial Killer
Possession
Antichrist
The Experiment
The Entity
Michael (2011)
Switchblade Romance/High Tension (before the needless 'twist')
The Woman

Irreversible was one movie I had to turn away from and would have no interest in ever sitting through again.

A Serbian Tale isn't worth anyone's time.

Also, can't believe no one has mentioned The Exorcist yet. Yes, it's shock value has obviously been diluted by the passing of time, but there is still an all encompassing air of dread hanging over proceedings that no movie has ever been able to replicate since.

Oh, just in case there's any mix up. Possession is 'Possession' (1981), i.e: the one where a wife is secretly shagging a tentacle creature. Not 'The Possession' (2012), i.e: the one that looks like it was directed by testicle creature

* hand under the door was the only true scare for me *

 

[EVILFACE]

The original Annie and Sound of Music.

I feel that years were taken off my life by being forced to watch them in school.

Shayamalan's last truly decent film. While there's plenty in it you could complain about, it functions extremely well as a throwback to a 50's alien invasion paranoia movie and successfully updates the formula to make scenes like the one you posted genuinely frightening.

 

[CallMeTheDoctor]

I've never even heard of most of the movies listed here, is it weird that I want to see them?

I'd say that Hostel I and II messed me up bad. Most other films I don't have a big deal with or whatever. I think the Scarface chainsaw scene ****ed me up along with Psycho but because I was 5 when I saw it. (Walked in on my dad watching them).


Recently it did take some force to watch the ending of Malena at the parade scene. Nothing super gorey but just flat out brutal.

 

[BB&WSF]

One of them..

 

[YankeesFanboy]

Requiem for a Dream is dead-on as a truly disturbing film. It's one of my favorite movies and I own the DVD, but I've only seen it once...it's that depressing.

I love me some horror movies, but some are more grueling to watch than others. I felt like I needed to take a shower after watching the first Hostel. Eli Roth is kinda a hack, but I still want to watch The Green Inferno.

Two of the kills in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning were so horrific, I still can't look at the actors the same way. And the RV scene in The Hills Have Eyes remake felt like something that had to be endured.

If there's a movie that makes you feel sorry for a pedo, Hard Candy is that movie. Oh, Ellen Page, you evil little witch you. And the "Imprint" episode of Masters of Horror is truly ****ed up. There's a reason why Showtime originally chose not to air it.

^7 Days(french movie) > Hard Candy

now, that is a disturbing movie.

 

[crows]

nothing gets more disturbing than the august underground movies

 

[YankeesFanboy]

Looks like I have some more movies to watch.

I think Alien, the Thing and In the Mouth of Madness really messed me up I saw those movies when I was 6/7 I think that's why I'm immune to every new horror movie

Ellen Page can be so evil

Robocop 1987. The scene when Murphy gets shot and killed was tough to watch. Almost every scene is tough to watch Robocop shooting a guy between the legs, ed 209 malfunctioning and killing some dude, the guy that melts at the end, Murphy getting turned into a robot by some company and having no control over the situation....the whole film is disturbing.

Others that scarred me as a kid were Robocop, mainly for the malfunctioning ED-209 scene, Terminator (for the eye surgery scene and general mood/music), and. . .Monty Python's the Meaning of Life. No 5 year old should see that ****. Interestingly enough, I now love each of those movies. But not ****ing Time Bandits.

Spank the Monkey - incest
Happiness - pedophilia
Bad Boy Bubby - child abuse
Romper Stomper - Australian skinhead culture

Edit: Just looked this up - I have heard of almost all of them and not seen a single one. No desire to either, especially:

https://www.tasteofcinema.com/2015/the-20-most-disturbing-movies-of-all-time/2/

If I know a movie concerns itself with pedophilia, I just won't watch. I can see stuff about the Holocaust and other heavy subjects, but those are just too much for me.

Same here actually. I thought about this after posting, that Requiem for a Dream was a movie I saw, and recognized that it was an extremely well-made film. . .that I will never want to watch again. And I haven't watched it since, oh, 2003 or whenever it was that I saw it.

Ellen Page can be so evil

try the movie Super lolz

 

[Devil_666]

Not only will I never watch a Human Centipede movie I honestly wish that people wouldn't even start threads about them or talk about them at all. Just a personal preference as I find the entire premise vomit inducing. Not in a metaphorical "moral high ground" kind of way, but literal, physical gag inducing. Its the one movie I've ever heard about that can actually trigger a gag reflex just based on the premise. I can't imagine actually watching one of them.

^you should do the whole avengers line up.

who'll be the lucky bastard behind black widow? lolz
