Most Disturbing scene in a movie

[Kaiser of Arabia]

I have to say that the most disturbing scene in a movie is the Man Rape in Deliverance.
"Now, I want you to Squeal like a pig. Ok? EEEEE! Come on! EEE!"
-Capo

[The Blind King of Bohemia]

That delivarance scene is nasty

Here are mine:

1/ The spiderwalk down the stairs from the exorcist

2/The family dinner from Texas chainsaw massacre

3/ The whole family being murdered in Man bites dog

4/ The male rape scene from Scum (totally brutal)

5/ The death of lennie played by jaime foreman despatched by the great paul bettany in Gangster Number 1

6/ The woman being raped by robert de niro in once upon a time in america

7/ The russian roulette in vietman in the deer hunter

8/ The death of the poor con Del in the green mile (the nasty prison guard doesn't put a watered sponge on his head and his death is horrific)

9/ The head in a vice scene in Casino, that is nasty, his eye pops out man! ~:wacko:

10/ The whipping of Jesus in The passion, god was that brutal ~:(


Also i hate john c reilly character stevie, from state of Grace when he gets his throat slit by ed harris and one of his goons, god its horrible man and the little vampire boy who flys and tries to get into his friends window in Salems lot. Christ man that makes you want to pull the curtains at night :saint:

[Steppe Merc]

I tend to stay away from horror movies (yeah, I'm a wimp). One really distirbing movie on the whole was Apocolapse Now. The whole end was very disturbing.

[The Blind King of Bohemia]

Oh and the Orgy scene at the end of 'Society' - unforgettable!

[The Tuffen]

The scene in American History X (I think) where the main bloke kicks the back of the guys head when he's got the pavement inbetween his teeth.

Also in Resevior dogs where Mr Blonde cuts off the cops ear while listening to Stuck in the middle with you.

[Longshanks]

The scene in We Were Soldiers where they try to lift a mortarmen wounded by napalm, and the flesh peels off his legs. ~:(

[DemonArchangel]

Hannibal
Where Dr. Lecter gives the brains to the kid

[Fragony]

The rape scene from Irriversible, man that was grim.

[Hetman_Koronny]

The scene in American History X (I think) where the main bloke kicks the back of the guys head when he's got the pavement inbetween his teeth.

Oh, yea, most definitely. I couldn't help closing my eyes. My "favourite" uhm. *shudders*

[LeeJackson]

I think the new movie SAW might top all of thoes.

[Lazul]

yeah SAW seams... scarry to say the least...

but has anyone seen Switchblade Romance?... french movie, now THATS a movie with some really disturbing scenes. It shows everything... how a man slits a womans throut open, and a how someone rams a "chansawlike machine" in to the stomach of a man... and it doesnt cut to another angle or anything... you get to see it all ~:dizzy:

... enough blood in that movie to compete with Braindead (wich is the best splatter-movie ever done!)

[KukriKhan]

Although the 'hack and slash' movies are not my taste, I know they appeal to a large audience.

Please remember that those movies are always rated "R" (restricted), and that this board is rated "PG-13" (and that we have 10-year olds registered), when writing your descriptions. Thanks.

[The Blind King of Bohemia]

Some of the scenes in Sleepers are disturbing, that scene when they are taken down into the lower levels is so sickenening to watch. Great film though

[R'as al Ghul]

So far, most of you posted "bloody" or "gory" scenes.
Not disturbing.
Now, "Blue Velvet" is one of favourite films and at the same time
one of the most disturbing films. It makes me feel uneasy. It's eery.
If I would meet Dennis Hopper asking me "What's up neighbour? Ready for a tour?", I would just drop dead.
"Wag the Dog" is another superb movie. The paralells to real life make it disturbing for me.
If you want funny/ memorable killing scenes then it's Tarantino for me.
Travolta shooting the guy on the backseat in Pulp Fiction, De Niro shooting Bridget(?) Fonda in Jacky Brown etc.

[Kaiser of Arabia]

Yeah, the Jesus scene from Passion was disturbing. The whole movie was disturbing in an enlightening sort of way. But any man-rape is disturbing.

[InsaneApache]

I wonder if any posters have seen 'Man bites Dog'....... now that film gave me nightmares for years...and I was 34 when i watched it.....it's all disturbing ~:shock: ~:wacko:


lol sry BKB should have read ur 1st list better.... ~:rolleyes:

[The Blind King of Bohemia]

Amazing film but even i flinch when he smothers the boy with the pillow....harsh stuff indeed ~:eek:

[LeeJackson]

If we are using 'I cant watch it' as our yard stick for disturbing how about that scene in Swingers where the guy calls lthe girl over and over again. That's so painful to watch I have to get up and leave.

[The Blind King of Bohemia]

Hs anyone seen a film called happiness? The scene when the paedophile father lures his sons 10 year old friend into his room is horrific, it isn't graphic but its what you don't see that makes it scary

[gaelic cowboy]

Starting at No 5 and working my way down most disturbing scenes would be these.

No 5 Anything to do with the latest star wars incarnations. Lucas is so obviously dark side what with the hype and marketing machine not so much a disturbing scene as a whole ethos of grab the loot.

No 4 When they find the baby in trainspotting

No 3 The lack of emotion in shindlers list by the man in charge of the camp (the rifle scene)

No 2 Any scene in event horizon

No 1 Deliverence need I say more

[Mount Suribachi]

The Omaha Beach scene in Saving Private Ryan. I saw an 10am showing of that film on a beautiful summers day in Australia and it ruined my day. I hardly spoke the rest of the day, I just sat on the couch thinking about what I had seen.

[solypsist]

James Spader and Rosanna Arquette getting it on (you had to be there) in Cronenberg's movie Crash.

[Orda Khan]

You guys need to take in some comedy

......Orda

[Kaiser of Arabia]

I do!

[Big King Sanctaphrax]

The bit in Pulp Fiction where Marsellas shoots Zed in the balls. It just makes me cry with sympathy pain...

[The Blind King of Bohemia]

BKS, that geezer just gave him some prison shower loving, i know i'd shoot the guy where it hurts as well! :saint: ~:wave:

[Kaiser of Arabia]

Zed dies anyway.

[Hurin_Rules]

Man Bites Dog-- I can't even think of a particular scene. The whole movie is just very, very disturbing, and at the same time fascinating.

[Big King Sanctaphrax]

BKS, that geezer just gave him some prison shower loving, i know i'd shoot the guy where it hurts as well! :saint: ~:wave:

Well, yes, but still...*walks off holding crotch*

[Plantagenet]

Hands down, the "California Smile" scene from American History X.

The mere thought of it is still enough to make me grit my teeth. Although you've all named some intense film moments, nothing disturbed me like that did. By comparison, the D-Day scene in Private Ryan was merely "exhilirating". ~:(

[ShadesPanther]

The guy eating the curb in American History X was horrible.The Dead bodies swinging inside out in the two predator movies was quite discusting or when Mr predator liked Bill Paxton's skull and spine in the second one.

[Tachikaze]

The torture seen of the cop in Reservoir Dogs
Quite a bit of Caligula

I have a copy of Saving Private Ryan and I haven't seen it yet because I have actually become more sensitive about witnessing pain and suffering in films.

[Shiro]

A Clockwork Orange. The raping to I'm Singing in the Rain just creeps me out.

[monkian]

Anyone seen Requiem for a dream ?

The scene where the main character wakes up in Hospital from ODing on heroine and his arm has been amputated is pretty harrowing as he starts screaming and twitching his stump ~:eek:

Then theres hisMum being given electric shock therapy after going insane after being prescribed amphetamine by her Dr for weight loss.

Then there the main character's best friend langushing alone in jail.

Then theres the main character's girlfriend (Jennifer Connoley) havign to peform explicit sex acts in a strip club to make ends meet.

Not a feel good film ~:(

[Plantagenet]

Ok, I forgot about the ear scene in Reservoir Dogs. Definitely right up there with the worst.

And...Jennifer Connelly performing explicit sex acts? Where might a fellow rent this wonderful film?

[The Blind King of Bohemia]

Hs anyone seen the amazing film called Chopper? What about when he gets a con in prison to cut the top of his ears off for him. That is seriously sick but great at the same time! ~D

[Snowhobbit]

Definatly "A Clockwork Orange" the whole thing is deeply disturbing, the whole attitude of everyone, the way it says "this is the horrible truth and it will never change", creepy movie.

[A.Saturnus]

It´s not a movie but the scene in Band of Brothers where they are under fire of an 88 and two guys lose their feet. I´ve wept seeing that.
Crossing Guard, when he comes for the first time to the grave of his child. The whole film made me so depressed.
The most disturbing movie I´ve ever seen is Jonny goes to war. I shiver every time I hear "One" from Metallica (it´s about that movie).

[monkian]

Ok, I forgot about the ear scene in Reservoir Dogs. Definitely right up there with the worst.

And...Jennifer Connelly performing explicit sex acts? Where might a fellow rent this wonderful film?

I can't really describe them on this forum but it involves another girl and an object.

The thing is you'll be so numbed and disturbed before you get to that scene that it won't be a all arousing.

So skip to the end first ~;)

If you just search on any p2p site you'll probably find that scene anyway.

[Cebei]

Any scene in the Exorcist movie is disturbing..

[Spartiate]

The scene in SEVEN when the cop leans close to the bed and says "you got what you deserved...." to what we assume is a long dead corpse and it (the corpse) started coughing.

[The Blind King of Bohemia]

Ray winstone's character abusing and having sex with his own daughter in The warzone. That film is emotionally draining ~:(

[King Edward]

I actually surprised my self at how disturbed i was watching the scene in Kill Bill vol 2 where they Bury Uma Therman alive! was a bit horrific in my opinion.

[Plantagenet]

Hs anyone seen the amazing film called Chopper? What about when he gets a con in prison to cut the top of his ears off for him. That is seriously sick but great at the same time! ~D

Yes, I've sort of seen it twice. First time I missed about the first half-hour, and 2nd time I missed the end. It was cheap and hard to follow, but I just couldn't turn the channel. ~:)

Certainly gave me respect for Eric Bana; I couldn't believe that Chopper (thick Aussie accent, huge bodybuilder type) was the same guy in Blackhawk Down (perfect southern US accent and 100 lbs. lighter) and the Hulk (middle-weight with a "normal" US accent). As bad as it was, Chopper made him one of my favorite actors.

[The Blind King of Bohemia]

Not to mention Hector in Troy ~:wave:

[Plantagenet]

Not to mention Hector in Troy ~:wave:

Haven't seen that one yet, but I've read the Iliad 3 times (Odyssey only once, wasn't as good IMO). Should I?

[makkyo]

The entire movie, "Mars Attacks" (especialy when the lady had the dog body... weird ~:confused: )

[Kraellin]

anything with barney the purple dinosaur.

yup. deliverance.

yup. clockwork orange.

yup. long green mile

yup. shindler's list

another along those lines was 'The Pianist'. those brutal scenes of nazi cruelty made my blood boil.

but the strangest, saddest, most depressing movie i ever saw was, 'They Shoot Horses, Don't They?' that will take you to an emotional low if ever a move can.

K.

[The Blind King of Bohemia]

Yeah the pianist is very sad film. That scene where the Nazi raid a jewish home and so casually throw the old disabled man out of his wheelchair into the street below. ~:eek:
