Most disturbing movie you have seen?

I wouldn't say the movie is the most disturbing, but one scene in Doctor Sleep was. When they torture and murder the boy, couldn't believe they showed this.

Apparently the director didn't intend it to be so brutal, but the actor was so convincing that he really disturbed the actors attacking him.
 
These two films are utterly disturbing and downright scary how inept our world leaders, governments, corporations and public are in the present and future.

The Hotel New Hampshire was baffling. That's a kind of disturbing. I mean you watch it and imagine all the time and money spent to produce it..... for whom? Who the fuck is this movie for? This is like when intellectuals sit around sniffing farts calling it art.



Yea that trailed leaves out the prolong and gratuitous incest subplot.

Almost anything Gaspar Noé
 
The anime movie Mind Game gets my vote. Only watched it once and it was a total and utter WTF experience. With like no redeeming quality whatsoever, just plain weird and freaky shit.
 
I too would say 'Bone Tomahawk'.
I'd never heard of the movie and saw (most of) a review of it on Red Letter Media and got quite interested. Its definitely worth watching.
 
The Feast trilogy is a bit more on the comedic (dark humour side) but worth a watch.

Very underrated series with some dark graphic scenes.



Jason Mewes is in the first one.

Most French extremity movies :

A l'intérieur
Martyrs
Irréversible
Seul contre tous
Baise moi (that DVR cam quality tho)

Other french/belgian stuff :
Bernie (very cynical, dark humor)
Man Bites Dog
Baxter
Grave
Climax's 2nd half

I don't know why, at one point around 15/20 years ago, we lost our minds and made weird shit.
 
Can anyone tell me what is disturbing about Eden Lake? I've noticed it on Netflix or some other streaming service.

You're going to have to elaborate as I can think of about 4 scenes which fit into "that scene"!!!

The newborn bit. It's what you don't see and what your mind puts together that's the most disturbing.

Hmmm I'd say Kill List is up there.

Love Kill List. Love everything Ben Wheatley does but that's my favourite.

It's very, very bleak. Can't tell you why specifically it's so disturbing in parts, but it's a good movie, just don't watch it when you want to be uplifted.

I love Fassbender and will watch him in anything but I've heard that Eden Lake is disturbing I'll try and brave it one day.

He's good in it, it's just a miserable movie - won't scare you, it'll just depress you if anything :messenger_tears_of_joy:
 
Melancholia hit me in the realz and left me brain dead for a few days. So utterly depressing without the unnecessary gore and scares. Slow burn tho.

Idk probably like

Schramm
Nekromantik
Slaughtered Vomit Dolls
Bride of Frank

Probably some others I'm forgetting. I dont seek out edgy shit as much these days
 
serbian film is the obvious choice here but lars von triers movie Antichrist has probably two of the grossest scene i've seen in a movie (one scene involves cumming blood and another involves cutting off a clit, in full detail!!!! don't watch with ur parents!!!)
 
The Descent.

The fear of being forever lost in a dark cave is even scarier than the (very scary) creatures in this film. As someone who is claustrophobic and not a fan of dark places, The Descent is one movie that'll make me uncomfortable even from thinking about it.

Just remembered some film that may be too disturbing, but I'll share anyway.

Men Behind the Sun

Oooof. The whole series was beyond fucked up. Still got Philosophy of a knife on DVD. It's especially disturbing knowing that Japanese probably did most of these things depicted in the movies.
 
Curiosity got the better of me and I scrubbed through that Siberian movie. I really wish I hadn't. I don't understand the need for things like that to even exist.
 
Melancholie der Engel

Never seen it. But read the synopsis. Nope. And I don't understand people that are into any of this To be quite honest.

Begotten is the only movie I've seen that legit made me think I was watching some forbidden thing.

There's a lot of messed up Asian stuff, especially from like the 70s, etc.

One title I remember in particular was Wet & Rope. Part of the Nunsploitation subgenre. I'll never forget the image of a nun licking a toilet seat, long before Sasha Grey had a go at it.

There's a lot of 70s Japanese "shock" cinema that features a lot worse. The klnda stuff you'd only find on the deepest armpits of the internet. All of it always made me feel so gross.

Holy shit why is this so absurd and yet so awesome? I had absolutely no idea "nunsploitation" was a thing lol brb I need to google stuff.



I thought Japan couldn't get more fucked up than Tetsuo. Clearly my mistake.

Have you met my friends, Death Powder and Rubber's Lover?






None of them are necessarily good lol. Unnerving? Most certainly.

Happy digging! :)

Nymphomaniac abortion scene was pretty wild too

Good choice. I rented this movie (along with FF Mystic Quest) when I was 8 and found the whole thing entirely disturbing and depressing.

What a gut punch that movie is. The ending is like fuck you.

Hasn't stopped me from loving it ever since though!

I also saw this when I was 8. My mother let me watch it... heh... what a great parenting decision that was. One of my favourites now.

On a book related note; although I am a fan of the film I find Brett Easton Ellis' American Psycho to be the most obscene book I have ever read. Very grim,and disturbing towards the last third of the book. I actually hate it with a passion and want to burn every copy I get my hands on. Again, I love the movie which is tame in comparison.

That's interesting. I was reading the start of it and was really enjoying it (it's exactly like the movie in style) but never finished it. I heard the book was a lot darker. I like that kinda stuff though.

My parents/older siblings made the worst decisions letting me watch whatever when I was a kid, Jesus. Borderline child abuse lol.

Oh yeah the start is really good. Really weird with all the Donald Trump references in the light of everything now but I have to say there are far too many passages later on devoted to the intricacies of Bateman's 'crimes' which the movie barely skims. I struggled finishing it and came away thinking this was misogynistic, pornographic, evil trash, which is not something I thought I would feel as I would have been quite open minded at the time and could stomach a lot of gore. I question the author's state of mind at the time. A lot of people certainly felt that on its release it seems and it took a female director to tease out the best bits for the movie. I lent my book to a friend and he came away feeling the same thing. Read it as best you can if you are up for it but in my opinion I wish I never read it at all.
 
Just watched Martyrs based on the numerous mentions in this thread.

It was brilliant. I wasn't disturbed because I was too blown away by the set up and execution. Wanted to thank this thread for the recommendation.
 
Suicide Club - Has scenes of (cheese) grating tattoos off people.... that shit sticks with you.....otherwise a great film on popular culture trends.

Cube - Been a dozen years since seeing and I still cringe on reminicining. remember some quick and violent deaths for people who played cubes wrong.
