R-rated rape scenes in all kind of movies.
 
I need to built a list of R-rated rape scenes in all kind of movies. Can you remind me which movie have rape scene, like A Clockwork Orange or Irreversible....

Re: R-rated rape scenes in all kind of movies.
 
I moved your thread to the Movie Discussion section of the board.

As far as your question goes . . . Pretty much any Death Wish movie qualifies. I know the first 3 do, for sure. Jeff Goldblum at his worst.

Yeah, I'm not the only one creeped out by new members asking these sorts of questions, right?

At least make something up about how its for a Gender Studies class or something.

Caitlyn 01-15-10 02:46 PM

I hate it when someone shows an interest in movies of this nature... makes the cop in me come out and wonder why they would even want to watch something like that...

Re: R-rated rape scenes in all kind of movies.
 
I am just all set with watching brutal rape scenes anymore. The most disturbing and tastless I have seen thus far is in the remake of Last House on the Left. It's VERY effective, and goes on way too long. Might be what you are looking for.

And can I just say... YUCK.

WBadger 01-15-10 03:56 PM

Re: R-rated rape scenes in all kind of movies.
 
It is odd for somebody to be searching for rape scenes. That is some dedication. Join a site just to find rape scenes.

But, hey, if rape is what you look for in movies than.... you're sick.

think they meant "grape" scenes, we all have made a typo before:

There could be "R" rated grape scenes. Depending on what they do with the grape, and where they . . . Never mind . . . :D

honeykid 01-16-10 12:49 AM

I Spit On Your Grave.

Basically, what you do is skip the first 35-40 minutes of the film and watch just the last few minutes of the rape. Then, when you're really seething and ready to put your foot through the tv and rip some scumbag's head off, ff to the first kill and then freewheel to the end of the film watching her get her revenge. :yup:

Hey Sedai can I ask what you thought of the remake? Not just that scene but the film as a whole? I am a pretty big fan of the original and was told not to see the remake as its terrible and I may vent my anger out on someone. :furious: :D

Re: R-rated rape scenes in all kind of movies.
 
i don't get why everyone is acting like this guy is sick just because he didn't specify what the rape list was for? maybe it is for his own personal use, but i don't see why that makes him 'sick'? a lot of people have strange fetishes, and i'm thinking rape is a pretty common fetish at that.

Caitlyn 01-17-10 12:04 PM

I'm sure rape fantasies/fetishes are fairly common... just visit your local prison and ask around...

ash_is_the_gal 01-17-10 12:07 PM

what? not everyone who has a rape fetish is a criminal, Caity. some are well-adjusted, functioning individuals. ahem.

Iroquois 01-17-10 12:11 PM

Re: R-rated rape scenes in all kind of movies.
 
Well, if Choke was any indication, some women have rape fantasies. As long as it's between consenting adults, I don't see much of a problem.

The point I was trying to make is that a very large number of criminals do/did have those types of fantasies... particularly serial killers. As for the general public, who knows how many do have those types of fetishes and function normally... but when anyone asks for movies of this nature, it sends up a red flag with me as the majority of the time when I've dealt with the criminal side of this, the offender normally had a large collection of films dealing with rape...

Somehow, I get the impression you're referring more to fantasies of being the victim though... whereas I'm referring more to the rapist themselves...

i was kind of referring to both. i feel a little foolish, but i've known several people intimately who enjoyed being on both ends of the spectrum, but for fantasy intention only. they aren't sadistic, serial killer types or anything, it's just a fantasy, right? i mean, i don't want to open up a can of worms on the psyche behind rape fetish or anything, but i know it exists, and not just in rapists. know what i mean? i just felt kind of bad for the original poster who asked because his post didn't raise any red flags with me... i just thought, "oh, some lonely, horny guy looking for new spank bank material." i didn't think, "ew, what a sick freak. let's lock him up and throw away the key!"

Caitlyn 01-17-10 12:48 PM

I didn't really think of him as a sick freak who needed locked up... but it struck me as rather odd he would show up out of the blue and ask for something of that nature without even pretending to offer an explanation... why not just cruise the net to find films of that nature instead of bringing attention to yourself by asking?

As for the people you know with the fantasies... as long as they are acted out between consenting adults and no one gets hurt, its their business...

Re: R-rated rape scenes in all kind of movies.
 
I understand the idea of "role playing" and I have no issue with that at all. The problem I have, is that actual rape is not role playing. Incidently, I really had no issues with the initial post other than thinking it was a bit out of nowwhere, which really is not that big of a deal in and of itself.

Yoda 01-17-10 02:01 PM

Re: R-rated rape scenes in all kind of movies.
 
On the surface, harmless fantasies seem to be just that -- harmless. But ask yourself if there's any fantasy or fetish you would find off-putting, or creepy? I'll bet there is. And if there is, then we have to acknowledge that, on some level, we all know that our fantasies say a little something about us. And once we do that, drawing a distinction between good/harmless fantasies and unhealthy/harmful ones is inevitable. Actions are paramount, sure, but daydreaming about bad things all day isn't perfectly benign, either.

It doesn't have to be boiled down to extremes, besides. If this person is "into" this sort of thing, it doesn't mean they must either be perfectly normal, or else a "sick freak." It could just be an unhealthy obsession. It doesn't mean they're automatically a danger to anyone, but ruling that out doesn't mean everything's perfectly fine.

Anyway, I did float the possibility on the first page of this thread that this person might just be doing homework, but most people doing that sort of thing say so, to avoid exactly the kind of reaction we're seeing now.

the only reason i said the thing about him being a "sick freak" is because so many people pretty much hinted at that or blatantly said it. hey, i'm not excusing the guy, he very well could be some creepy old guy, and posting something like this out of the blue on a forum is a little weird, i'll admit. i just thought peoples reactions were a little much - a lot of people have weird things and fetishes. maybe not rape, but you get what i'm saying.

but why does it have to be labeled an unhealthy obsession? do you honestly feel that anyone who would be into it has an unhealthy obsession? as far as i'm concerned, if someone has fetishes and fantasies that they like to role play with their significant other or whatever behind closed doors, i don't see what's so unhealthy about that. not if that's all they do with it. i almost feel like you think that instead of "giving into the fantasy", you think they should try to figure out why it is they have the fantasy, and correct the behavioral thought process behind it because it obviously stems from something wrong...

remember that a lot of us are guilty for wanting to watch movies that are peppered with what most people would call "sick" stuff in them. for example, fans of gory horror movies like to watch violence and blood. they might even try to seek out and find every bloody movie they can in order to see as much as possible, similar to what this guy is doing. is that an unhealthy obsession, too? if so i should think we are all guilty of it, because even though we may not post a thread on a movie forum asking others to give us titles of movies that fit that criteria, we still like watching movies that have raw, disturbing images.

so saying stuff like "it really bothers me why someone would want to watch movies with rape in it, that's disgusting and creepy" um, we all watch movies that have way worse in it - for entertainment, no educational purposes.

Sexy Celebrity 01-19-10 12:39 PM

This is indeed one of those weird threads with a funny title (to me) like the "non-porn incest movies" thread. In a way, this thread is titled similarly -- this person wants "R-rated" rape scenes. I'm sure R rated rape scenes can be pretty bad graphically and with how it is depicted, but I imagine someone who is possibly more twisted would want NC-17/X rated rape scenes.

I guess it's funny that they would ask for "R rated" rape scenes. Why R rated? Is it possible to film a PG-13 rape scene? If you were doing some kind of study for school on rape scenes in movies, why stick specifically to R rated rape scenes? I suppose it can be done, but I'm sure most people would find it odd (as we do with this thread).

The R rating is practically going away these days, anyways. It exists in movie theatres -- but far too often nowadays, the R rating changes to "Unrated" (which could have made it NC-17 in theatres) when it's released on DVD. Thus, I imagine, a lot of "R rated rape scenes" exist in old films, but I'm sure there's still some new ones, I'm just not aware of them (though, maybe I'll learn a few things from this thread!)

As for Ash_Is_The_Girl's comment about gory and bloody horror films... I have never really watched horror films for the blood and guts. I don't seek out these films to satisfy some inner urge to please myself by looking at blood and dead bodies. Sometimes I'm pleased by the special effects and the overall ghoulish effects, but I can get squeamish looking at that stuff. I think possible motives for me watching horror films is because A.) Monsters have always intrigued me (this applies to some horror films), B.) It's fun to get into a spooky, scary mood sometimes and C.) It's a coping mechanism to face death -- I can usually take most of the fake scary stuff, all the blood and dead bodies if it's in a movie, but don't ask me to look at dead bodies in a hospital or something. That takes more strength from me. Also, D.) It's nice to root for the heroes of horror films, the ones who are battling against the evil people.

As for rape scenes... I can't say that the person who started this thread is addicted to rape scenes or something like that (obviously, he or she needs to build up their collection!). The fantasy may be there. I'm not sure why.

I have no interest in building up a collection of rape scenes -- however -- if I get word that Jake Gyllenhaal, Portrait of a Rapist is being released, completely NC-17, shows off everything he has to offer -- I'm getting the Blu-ray. No question.

"Raw, disturbing images" aren't just rape scenes and horror films -- any war film has raw, disturbing images. I think that there's been a lot of praise on films that are "arty" and show things you don't normally see -- a woman goes to a bank, gets raped by a homeless man on the way (it lasts 20 minutes and is very graphic), she withdraws $5,000 and gives it to the homeless man, they have sex again but this time it's consensual, the woman moves to Sicily and becomes celibate, but for some reason she can't resist making love to kitchen knives, so she dies -- something like that is praised, called "original", wins all sorts of awards and praise for its "raw, disturbing images" -- meanwhile, horror films, war films, etc. don't matter, aren't praised, are seen as useless. What we like watching depends on us -- what's considered "raw, disturbing images" depends on how we feel about it. I can watch horror films and not even think during them, "Ooooh, these visuals are so raw, so disturbing! Ooooh!"

The original The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is one example of a horror film that was praised by some critics at the time for being "raw" and "disturbing" -- and I guess it is. At the time it was. But now, it's very... eh... the film doesn't even show that much blood!

In some cases, absolutely. I won't presume to know when such things are a problem, or stem from a problem, or need to be addressed, but I don't think it's a stretch to suggest that this is sometimes the case.

Rape is a really terrible thing. I'm not sure why we should brush this off as not being your or my cup of tea; I don't know that a perfectly well-adjusted person could fixate, or derive pleasure, from the thought of such a horrible thing. And I find it hard to believe that most people would do so without some sort of trauma in their lives.

I keep going back to the point I made in my first post: is there any fetish that would offend you, or that you would think of as unhealthy in some fashion? I think it's pretty safe to say that there is. And if there is, then the idea that all fantasy is completely harmless goes out the window, and it becomes case-by-case.

That certainly can be an unhealthy obsession, sure. Is this really such a controversial opinion? The torture porn genre contains some pretty messed up stuff; I would certainly worry about some teenage kid who excitedly devoured all these sorts of films and took a strange amount of glee in them. This obviously doesn't mean being a horror fan makes you deranged, but there are different types of ways to enjoy horror films, and some of them can certainly be disconcertingly detached from human suffering.

It's not really the same thing, though; we're supposing that this person is interested in it for purposes of fantasizing about it. As much as I might find many horror films distasteful, I don't think most people watch them so they can fantasize about killing people themselves. If they did, wouldn't you worry about them?

There are people who there who do the "rape roleplaying" -- someone's inside a house, minding their own business, but then their lover (husband, or hell, perhaps even a total stranger I'm sure) "breaks" into their house and rapes them somewhere.

It's pretend because it's set up, but it could almost be close to the real thing, I'm sure, in some situations.

Some people -- probably mostly guys -- probably mostly gay guys -- are THRILLED and excited by the idea of forced sex with a stranger. Go on Craigslist in the Male For Male personal ads anytime and you'll find countless ads with men looking for other men, whom they don't know at all, wanting you to come over to their house, find them naked and blindfolded and waiting to service you...

Is this rape? No, but close to it!

I don't think that many women desire these types of scenarios -- although I have heard of women that fantasize about being raped.

I would be terrified of being raped because, A.) It'll be going somewhere that usually takes some preparation before you fool around with it, and you better fool around with it gently. B.) The chances of getting diseases, especially HIV.

Not everyone likes these things, and certainly not every gay guy, but it does happen.

Yoda, i'm not. having a sexual fantasy about the idea of being raped/raping someone else and actually partaking in a real-time rape are two totally different things. of course i don't want to be raped for real; the idea of it happening would be as terrifying and humiliating for me as it would anyone else. well, this same mentality can be said for a person on the other end of the equation (i.e., "the rapist"). the roleplay may turn them on, but the idea of actually raping, hurting, humiliating someone like that, in a non-fantasy and real life situation wouldn't. you honestly don't think that's possible? i have a hard time explaining it, but as far as i'm concerned, when you indulge a "weird" fantasy like this, you're in a completely different world. you aren't in the same mind-set as a person who actually lived through the trauma! does that make any sense? in other words, just because someone is into the fantasy doesn't mean they really want it to happen outside of an actual set-up role play, you know? believe it or not, there are people who get off on this kind of thing who would find the real thing completely wrong and terrifying. i don't have statistics or hard-based proof other than real anecdotes. that probably doesn't mean much.

wait, are you saying that anyone who indulges the fantasy will most likely experience trauma from it, or most people who have the fantasy probably once experienced a traumatic incident that led them to have the fantasy to begin with? (i think i just used the word fantasy and trauma about 36 times, sorry).

offend me? no. but i don’t see why it should. why should i feel offended by what others choose to do in the privacy of their own homes as long as they aren't involving an unwilling participant? i agree something like this is obviously case-by-case, but i have a really hard time jumping to some general conclusion about people and their fetishes. it's like what Caity said. she's seen a lot of connections to criminals and weird sexual fetishes, and so it raises a red flag for her when anyone shows such an interest in it, and fair enough. but you still can't speak for the whole human race and say, "okay, because all criminals seem to be obsessed with rape and stuff, that means anyone who has a weird fetish is obviously messed up in some way." is it really that black and white?

i don't think there is such a thing as an unhealthy fetish, because i don't think the fantasy is what makes the behavior unhealthy - it's the person. here is what i think constitutes as unhealthy:

1) when you partake in said fetish but still do not feel satisfied, meaning this: role-playing the fetish out on a fantasy level isn’t enough. you want the real thing, be it rape, incest, or any other kind of fetish which involves having power over another person or thing.

2) if immediately after you feel disgusting, worthless, or wrong. here is a link to a guy who gets his kicks [no pun intended] by being kicked in the balls [i kid you not]. this is obviously unhealthy, and not just because it’s probably not a good idea to abuse your nads, but the guy specifically says he feels disgusting and worthless immediately after doing it. if doing it makes you feel that bad, then it’s unhealthy. but what if it doesn’t? some people like to spice up their sex lives, know what i’m saying? it doesn’t make them feel bad at all, either; it’s fun, exciting, and a fresh spin on things. if doing this is enough to satisfy some deep-seated feeling from where it derives, where’s the harm? i just don’t see it.

You don't need to cite any statistics, because I can't imagine any reasonable person disputing anything you just said. I am not in any way, shape, or form, suggesting that someone who has a rape fantasy or fetish secretly wants it to actually happen. I'm kinda dumbfounded that you thought I might have. We're clearly not on the same page here, for whatever reason.

The second one. I'm saying that people don't just grow up and start fantasizing about rape; that something has to happen to spur this, to make it desirable to them.

I'm trying to be delicate about this, because this topic can become pretty disturbing pretty quickly. You really can't think of anything? I don't want to start tossing ideas out, but I find it hard to believe that we couldn't come up with things that we all find repugnant to the point at which anyone who daydreamed about them must have an issue of some sort.

To be honest, I kinda feel like the opposite is what's black and white: the idea that, as long as it's in your head, it's never bad, or the symptom of a problem, or anything like that.

I appreciate the live-and-let-live philosophy that I imagine is behind these kinds of sentiments, but I don't think it's applicable to this kind of discussion. It's more relevant in matters where actual interference or prohibiton is being considered. But this is just a discussion about what constitutes being perfectly well-adjusted, or ideal. That requires a far lower burden of proof that suggesting we start rounding people up or something.

That criteria makes sense, but I would add something:

3) If the person who partakes in the fetish is doing so as some sort of coping mechanism.

There's an abundance of evidence out there about the way things like trauma, absent parents, or various forms of abuse can have a dramatic effect on sexual behavior (and behavior in general). At its core, it's not a terribly controversial thought: not everything we do comes from some perfectly neutral and self-conscious center. Many of the things we like or dislike, or the way we behave, are greatly affected by the sum of our experiences. And not all of it is positive simply because we've chosen it.

Basically, behavior that exists to cope with some kind of negative experience is not generally regarded as healthy behavior, because it's done in lieu of actually resolving the issue. This is not to say that such things are abhorrent, rare, weird, or likely to lead to anything else. But I do think this means they are not ideal. That's pretty much the crux of what I'm saying.

That's fairly obvious, man.

I'm going to toss in my two cents (and this is not directed at any one person):

I don't think there's anything wrong with getting off on watching rape scenes in movies (not that we even know the OP's motives, mind you). Having a rape fantasy is no different than having bondage or S&M fetishes. It's all about power and domination. Some people are aroused by dominating other people and others are aroused by being dominated. Rape fantasies are just an extreme form of this.

And, While I'm sure in some cases these fantasies may stem from some kind of trauma, I don't think that's true for most or even a significant percentage of people who have these fantasies and I don't think anybody should ever assume that there's some underlying cause for it. I also suspect that rape fantasies are more common than most people think but many people are too afraid to admit that they have them.

Also, what exactly constitutes a rape fantasy? A lot of couples role play and engage in behaviors during sex that could be considered along the same lines of a rape fantasy, yet are considered more or less normal. For example: I know many couples who employ handcuffs or other restraints during sex, thus putting the power in the hands of whichever partner is unrestrained, just like the power is in the hands of the "rapist" in that type of role play.

As for myself, I have watched rape porn and actually found myself rather aroused by some of it. I'm also fascinated by the whole concept of bondage. This doesn't mean that I'm not just as repulsed by actual rape as anybody else and I have no trauma in my life that spurred these fascinations. It's just part of who I am. I've never actually indulged in rape role play, but I can see the appeal of it.

And while it certainly stands to reason that an actual rapist would find pleasure in watching scenes of simulated rape, I believe it's a fallacy of logic to assume that someone who enjoys watching scenes of simulated rape must themselves be rapists or be otherwise mentally unhealthy.

I think some people read too much into what other people like to watch.

Some years ago a friend of mine was running for governor of Texas and doing a pretty good job of it until during an outing with reporters on his ranch it started to rain. My friend--a real cowboy, not the urban version--commented that weather was a lot like rape--"you can't do anything about it, so you might as well relax and enjoy it."

Now this is just an old saying I've heard all my life, especially among cowboys, rig crews, hunting trips, and just anywhere a group of guys collect. But it's a dumb thing for a politician to say, especially when it showed up in newsprint.

Like I said, it was something I'd heard many times and never thought anything about it. But that was before I knew a woman who had been raped. Even though it happened years before I knew her, it still gave her nightmares--she would trimble in her sleep and cry out. I spent a lot of nights holding her just to keep the nightmare away, but it even undermined her self-image to the point that it came between us.

So for the first time I heard that old saying from a different perspective that made me sick. Rape is too horrible a crime to make light of in silly sayings or fantasies or as entertainment in movies.

That said, the most disturbing rape scene I ever saw portrayed wasn't in a film but in an on-stage production of Man of La Mancha. The actress wore a flesh-colored body suit under the clothes that were torn off by the rapists, and the portrayal of her beating and rape was graphic and very disturbing. Not at all entertaining.

Oh, by the way, my friend lost the election.

On a side note, I never realized how suggestive this scene is when taken out of context... Well, up until they mention Esmerelda. I am far too easily amused by gay jokes involving Disney.

Anyway, for whatever this person's purpose in asking for it, the only rape scene I can think of is in Boys Don't Cry.

Re: R-rated rape scenes in all kind of movies.
 
at least the title is specific and accurate, warns you to keep out of the thread.

Dog Star Man 01-22-10 01:28 PM

Why would anyone think this type of thread would be appropriate? I see no real difference between rape and child porn, they both are exploiting, torturing, and psychologically scarring to its victims! Whoever is the administer here. I hope you banned this sick ****. This is just on levels more disturbing than I think anyone here feels comfortable with, (and rightfully so). I had an experience yesterday that disturbed me on the same level that I hope never to experience again. I rented from netflix a movie called Jungle De Ikou, it was an anime movie from my "500 Animes" book... and they compared it to a series called GoldenBoy which I thought was hilarious. The type of comedy were big-busted women get the best of their male counterparts, its really funny stuff all in all. However I see this thing and shut it off within 15 minutes, if that... The series wasn't about that at all. What it instead was it was about a pre-pubescent girl going through puberty and "sexualizing" her. Camera angles showing her back side/underwear, crotch shots, shots of her chest, and even going as far as watching her go to the restroom and showing her have her friggen period... at which point I couldn't take this kind of sick trash anymore and returned it. I'm thinking of alerting netflix about the whole thing because I think they need to know about what they are renting out to people. I'm still flabbergasted by the whole thing, and I feel guilty about even taking a glace at it, let alone renting it, even though I know I knew nothing about it. Point is, rape and child porn, its all on the same level of sick. And after the whole incident that I experienced yesterday, it makes this thread even more disturbing because its almost reassuring the fact that their are people out there who actually engage in this type of thing.

Sick and wrong. There's really no other words for it.

Miss Vicky 01-22-10 01:55 PM

Dog Star Man -

There's no point in banning the OP. He/she hasn't done anything wrong. There's no forum rule that says that the subject of rape in movies cannot be discussed. Rape is a common theme and is found in all genres of film.

Additionally, we have no way of knowing why the OP is asking for suggestions. For all we know, he/she is writing a term paper on the subject for a psychology class or something similar.

As for your insistence that "this is just on levels more disturbing than I think anyone here feels comfortable with," clearly you haven't read the other responses in the thread, so please speak only for yourself. The rest of us, including the site administrator, were having a rational discussion on the matter.

Dog Star Man 01-22-10 02:00 PM

Sorry about that. You are correct I suppose... still though, I'm not comfortable with this thing. I think it's ill.

A rape joke can be funny, though. As in a scene in Girls Will Be Girls, one of my favorite movies of all time, when a drag queen called Coco wakes up from a disturbing dream and comes to the realization that a doctor at the hospital she was just at had raped her.

COCO: I think that doctor gave me morphine and then RAPED ME!!!!

Her friend, Evie, also a drag queen, and a lover of sex, chimes in with:

EVIE: Oooooooh! So, it's a sex dream, huh?

I was inspired to join this site because of this thread, I was ironically looking for rape scenes on the internet.....

I in fact not being a creepy old guy but, (and this is my opinion) a rather hot 22 year old girl, and i happen to be utterly repulsed by the very notion that I someone who, yes has a sexual fixation of sorts, am either unhealthy, or worse capable of hurting anyone in that fashion,

women DO NOT just fantasize about being the victim I sure don't. and most of the women I date have shared that fantasy, as common ground.

I am not trying to rock anyone's boats, but the truth is this is one of the most common sexual fixations there is. it does not mean any of us want to be raped for real, I think it has to do subconsciously with how much control one thinks the have over their sex lives.

Classicqueen13 08-05-10 10:19 PM

Re: R-rated rape scenes in all kind of movies.
 
Somewhat pointless post:

Wow, I spent way too much time of my life reading through this thread. Even if it was under half an hour. I don't watch rape scenes mostly because I'm a 16-year-old girl who finds the suggestion of being raped horrifying.

As for fantasies, I don't see what is so romantic or intriguing about having sex against your will. I will never have one because it would be insane for me, weighing in a little over 100 pounds, to imagine having much of any force over a man (that's my choice of partner) over the age of ten. Child rape is just sick. No excuses. And to be the victim, I already explained the lack of appeal.

There's my two cents. Take it as you will. I know this post didn't really answer the thread request, but it was more so my opinion on the debated topic here.

TBF, I don't think anyone said they thought it was romantic or intriguing. Simply erotic or sexy or just a fantasy.

Fantasies and fetishes can only really be understood by those who also have the same feelings. Personally, the thought of feet being sexy is ridiculous, however, I know Quentin Tarantino could talk for hours about how sexy they are. Different strokes and all that, if you'll pardon the pun. ;)

Michael_10 08-05-10 10:48 PM

Re: R-rated rape scenes in all kind of movies.
 
Fetishes are broad in their nature, some will and do find "staged rape" aberrant. Those who dismiss this, would be quite surprised that some women in loving marriages find been taken against their will and....for lack of a better word "used for sexual enjoyment" quite a turn on.

Admittedly, this subject, is better left for other forums, but, one has to understand. If nobody is getting hurt, and all parties are consenting, then all it is, and all it should be considered...is role play. I do concede, this subject matter is a balancing act, and to those Directors, and persons, who play this game have to be well aware of others who consider this something which only encourages others.

The OP probably reaped (or should I say...) massive lulz back in January.

But shame on you for bumping this! Shame on the mods for not locking this!

Rape is about power, folks; not sexuality. It's all about dominance. The erotic aspects are basically null and void here. Child molestation is even more about the power, mainly ultimate paternal power. When rape is about sexuality, however, it's mostly harmless. Like Earth.

And can I just say... YUCK.
Its the first one that popped into my head when I read the title of the thread.

I was watching this one during the day on Sky Anytime and my mum walked in from work just in time to catch that particular scene. I find such scenes just bloody awkward in films, especially in the presence of others.

As you mentioned that particular scene goes on for long enough to have you reaching for the remote. I think part of the curse of being a movie enthusiast like most of the members on hear is that we become enthralled in our films on a level that makes such things worse.

The OP said R-rated so I wasn't going to suggest La Blue Girl, Urotsukidōji and other fine names in Japan's proudest genre: tentacle rape.

I thought the point of rape is that it's non-consentual.

Miss Vicky 08-06-10 12:51 PM

Re: R-rated rape scenes in all kind of movies.
 
It's consentual if it's rape fantasy/role play, which is what Iro was talking about.

Cries&Whispers 08-06-10 01:26 PM

Man, this is a weird thread, but I'm gonna post in it anyway.

The movie with what is widely considered the quintessential disturbing rape scene is Irreversible. Given its popularity, that was probably already mentioned on here. But if you haven't seen it, basically Monica Bellucci gets raped from behind on the ground of a dirty hallway while some guy snorts coke. A guy walks in the background and just leaves, without telling the cops or anything. The whole scene is filmed in one low-angle shot and it lasts for the entirety of the rape.

I think the second most disturbing rape scene is the original Last House on the Left. It's just icky. I own the movie, and my dad walked into me watching that before and thought I was watching a sadistic porno.

Others are Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer and I Spit on Your Grave.

I don't think A Clockwork Orange was really disturbing, because Kubrick filmed those scenes in such a stylized manner. It was often humorous, but maybe that's what's supposed to be so disturbing, that we're watching the rape scenes as entertainment.

Man, this is a weird thread.

planet news 08-06-10 01:41 PM

Re: R-rated rape scenes in all kind of movies.
 
The OP already got off on Irreversible. He's searching for more films "like it". I almost wanted to say Memento.

There's only one explicit rape scene in A Clockwork Orange and that's the intro scene in the theater. I can't remember if they actually "raped her" though. I thought she got away when the other gang arrived. The other scene ("Singing In The Rain") didn't show the actual rape, correct? Just the lead up to the rape. For me, this is somehow more terrible, because then we are forced to imagine the rape.

mark f 08-06-10 03:39 PM

Re: R-rated rape scenes in all kind of movies.
 
We see her getting raped. You only see the top part of her but the conclusion of that scene I've always taken to be the rape. Now, you remember that long nose Alec is wearing in that scene... ? I would post a more-blatant pic but it would get deleted for having nipples.

The one film that I can recall any sort of rape scene was Houndog with Dakota Fanning. It was another one of those scenes that you only were shown so much although you knew what was occurring. To me this sort of scene especially with a girl the age that Fanning was at the time or even now is just sick.

wow i accidentally re-awoke this thread didn't i,
rape fantasy has nothing to do with romance, and everything to do with power, people who fantasize about it being done to them tend to be the ones with too many responsibilities and need to find a way to surrender power while people who fantasize about doing it to other tend to be the ones who lack and crave empowerment. (super large generalization) but there you go
