What Is The Most Disturbing Film?

The fire hydrent scene from Irreversible was fairly dirturbing. It gave me a strange, unpleasant tingly feeling inside.

eraserhead,the shining,the descent,saw,the ring

The remake of Hitchcock's Psycho. I saw the first 30 minutes, and I am still disturbed.

Requiem For A Dream.. I couldnt do anything for a few days after I saw that movie for the first time.

Cannibal Ferox.

Just...gahhhhh.

American History X was pretty disturbing. The curb stomp, the shower scene, all of it was pretty disturbing. The Ring could be construed as disturbing, but that's because it scared the crap out of me!

Just teeth alone touching stone gives me the shivers even without the stomp. Like nails on a chalkboard. Goosebums galore.

I haven't seen Requiem For A Dream, but I'm gonna now.

I thought The Cell was pretty distrubing, though interesting the same.

I detested the Cell.

I hate movies that has allot of material made up from the mind of a character in the film.

I'll have to go with Requiem For A Dream. The arm mole.... scary.

The Shining was just a trip, the old lady in the empty room or the twins...But Deliverance, that Banjo-playibg kid jus freaked me out, that kid just watched em go down the river from the bridge..WTF?! Kinda reminds me of Apocalypse Now when you see the rear-end of a plane's fuselage sticking out of the charred ground, but in a backwoods-redneck way.

Id rather watch saw or House of 100 Corpses compared to the Shining.

Whaaa?

Are we talking about the original? I don't remember any ruthless torture, necrophilia, incest, pedophillia or sadism. Also, the rape wasn't even shown.

Either you're talking about the remake (which I've never seen), you're talking bullcrap, I have a bad memory, or my version is heavily cut.

Anyone ever seen HAPPINESS.....that movie was pretty disturbing.

"Men behind the Sun" is such a film for me.
Especially the scene where they capture that little boy just to cut
open his stomach and remove his entrails.. Or the scene where an
imprisoned person is forced into a pressure chamber and then his
bowels come out of his butt
That kinda made me loose my appetite for quite a while..

Most Disturbing movie would problaby be The Stendhal Syndrome. Weird movie.

It seems like some of the videos mentioned are just gross or scary, not truely disturbing. In my opinion A Clockwork Orange has to be the most disturbing movie of all time. Also Dreamers is a disturbing movie.

My list is realyl different. These are movies which are disturbing for personal reasons. The imagery may not be gross or unrelenting, but these are the movies which make me hurt the most emotionally, which I think is what disturbing is really all about.


5. The Accused

Not the entire movie. But that scene where Jodie Foster is raped scared me. The way all of the men in the group bent to the group will was the worst part for me.

4. Old Yeller

Listen, I know it's not disturbing in a traditional way. But I sob at the end. Every time. I am misty eyed just thinking of it.

3. Birth of a Nation

What startled me was how well this film was made. It bothers me everytime I think about it.

2. Kids

Wow. This movie was intense. Intense.

1. Munich

I was unsettled for the longest time after seeing this movie. It was just hard to watch. It resonated hard for me. It is rare for me to spend so much energy jsut reeling from a movie.
