Requiem for a Dream. The part where he shows his arm and its all nasty and drugged up.

Actually, that entire movie is disturbing, but damn good.

Scene from Pulp Fiction where they "bring out the gimp..."



Edit: Just saw Running Scared. The scene where the kid is taken to that couples apartment with the other boy and girl in the toyroom....

I still can't clear that scene out of my mind...
Definitely will NOT watch that again though.

Most of the scenes from Hostel. When i first started watching this movie, i was like "hell yeah boobies" then after it, i was like "F Amsterdam". I cringed a few times during that film.

There was some movie, who's name a can't remember, where some fugitive shows up to a house where a guy and his wife (Jennifer Tilly) live. He "kidnaps" them, but eventually hooks up with Jennifer Tilly's character. They have him tied up in the bathroom and they are in the bedroom. He makes his way to the doors because it sounds like there is a struggle going on and he wants to help his wife, but it turns out she's just riding the fugitive like a seasoned cowgirl. They make some smart-ass comment to the guy to stop being such a pervert and get back in the bathroom. I think he later hangs himself.

Anyway, I always found that scene disturbing, just because this guy loved his wife and was trying to help her, only to discover she was a b1tch-ass-skank-slut from hell.

The Shining when the kid goes into the forbidden room ... can't stop watching it, even though my childhood memories flood back of being petrified of that scene.

And he is smiling in pride as he is arrested.

I have to agree... it was the most disturbing I've seen.

I agree with that one


Also,

For those who've seen United 93(myself 3 times) just certain parts of that movie are wholly gutwrenching and they dont even have any gore.

Especially at the end of the movie when the plane flips over and is diving for the ground...that moment is so visceral and real and then just fade to black...that part just ripped at my emotions and probably explains why I went to see it 2 more times.

Oh, new worst scene for me.


Running Scared. The scene where the kids are taken to that couples apartment and into the toyroom.


OMG. Just the idea that people *may* be capable of that freaks the crap out of me.
