    Re: The most disturbing film

    The first JEEPERS CREEPERS had came out on VHS. My friend had rented it and invited me to watch it with his brother. I ****ing loved the movie. But that ****ing song, man. Oh my god it's so unsettling. Then that scene where he falls down into the pit with all the bodies laced together. Their faces... That film is so underrated. SO UNDERRATED! It's such a great flick...

    But that song!

      I second (third?) Derek's call for Happiness. Which disturbed me on so many levels, but was also incredibly good. Maybe that's why?

      Two more: Once Were Warriors - Didn't speak for some hours after seeing it at the cinema. I couldn't speak. I still feel breathless when I think about it.

      I'll make a prediction - Snowtown is getting lots of Cannes talk right now. "Disturbing" and "unrelenting" seem to be the most consistent cries. Worse, too, because it's a true story.

      Once it's released in the US, I'm going to guess it shows up on one of these lists.

        I found the trailer for Snowtown disturbing.

            One of the few that comes to mind is HOUSE OF A 1,000 CORPSES. Mostly because it was so over-the-top that I was waiting for the girl to get away, for the family to get its comeuppance, but when that didn't happen I was pissed and it took me a while before I was willing to give Rob Zombie another chance. And other than THE DEVIL'S REJECTS I regret having given him a second chance.

                Any film where animals are genuinely maimed/killed during production.

                  That's like every western, and every movie made up to about 1980.

                  And a movie where you'd think there wouldn't be any issues with animals: The Great Train Robbery. The dog killing the rats was...a dog killing rats. according to Crichton, apparently animals were harmed in the making of that film. But they were dirty rats so no big deal, right? RIGHT??

                            As Martell pointed out, The Rapture with Mimi Rogers ... Holy effin' religious figure, Batman! The poor woman starts out as a swinger, then becomes a religious nut, and it goes downhill from there. I won't say any more, in case someone wants to watch it.

                            But the most disturbing scene that I remember was in a film about some herpetologist who loves cobras. He keeps trying to turn a person into a cobra and has a botched experiment along the way. He turns a young man who is a friend of his daughter into some caterpillar-looking lump of a snake. The daughter comes along and sees him in a carnival. You can see in his face that he recognizes her and that he knows what has happened to him. It was gruesome!
