oh, i don't know that one, please give more details.

It's called "The Smilie"

1. He threatens some kid to put his mouth on the curb, as if to eat it.
2. He kicks the kid in the back of the head, making his jaw/head split.

The start of Trainspotting when Ewan Mcgregor dives in to the nasty toilet. The other scene where one of the characters shits himself while he sleeps.

The scene in Apocolypse Now when Charlie Sheen covers himself in blood after killing Marlon Brando

The scene in Full Metal Jacket when Gomer Pile shoots himself in the head

A few more I can think of-

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest- When Jack Nicholson gets lobotimized.
Goodfellows - When Joe Pesci and his brother get whacked with baseball bats
Saving Private Ryan- The normandy scene (all of it)
Braveheart- Mel Gibsons last scream of freedom while seeing his dead wife

How about the puking scene in Stand By Me (I hate seeing people puke)

Really? I had to stifle laughter during that one. Not because I get off on stuff like that, but because of how ridiculous the whole scene was. :eek:

Thats Casino, not Goodfellas. Pesci gets shot in the face in Goodfellas.

In the movie Passion of the Christ when Jesus was being flogged with the barbed mace and the barbs were sticking in his flesh, and the guy doing the flogging just swung the mace back up tearing pieces of flesh of his back.

Any scene in any movie involving the poking of or pulling out ones eye.

I hate it when people touch their eyeball. Skeeves the hell outta me. I can't even put drops in my eyes without cringing. Which means, after I'm done working 13 hour over night shifts, if an officer pulls me over for anything, I'm being breathalized and made to walk the white line.

That whole movie was just so laughable. They really tried too hard on that one.

The opening scene to Saving Private Ryan was probably the most brutal though.
