Very Bad Things was quite disturbing to me, as was Training Day, Gummo (i just wanted to smack that kid when his chocolate falls in the water for some reason...), Fire in the Sky scared the living shit out of me as a kid, as did Predator. Pet Semetary was freaky, as was the first Texas Chainsaw Massacre. I Spit on Your Grave was some shit indeed...but to me, more disturbing are Cannibal Holocaust, Cannibal Ferox/Make Them Die Slowly, and pretty much all the other 70's Italian cannibal films.

Ah Very Bad Things was one I kinda liked kind of a dark comedy. Cameran Diaz is in it and the first hour is very interesting and what people will do to cover things up.

Actually a simallar Movie came out called Stag? I think but it was much darker.

So watcha guys think of 8mm very disturbing for a big budget film.

Yeah, Very Bad Things ripped off Stag. Stag was much better, no comedy, just group of people trying to deal with the sudden problem they had. I liked it when I seen it on HBO.

Hated VBT though. It was worthless.

Well this is in the theatres right now but Frailty GO SEE IT amazing film.

I've seen plenty of funked-up movies, but there's something about Event Horizon that is extra funked-up. Something about hell-posessed people being ripped apart by other hell-posessed people's bare hands...

Anyway, that movie disturbed the heck out of me.

Gummo made me feel bad.

For a great, yet disturbing movie, try Tetsuo: Iron Man. Best use of stop-motion ever. The ending is one of my favorites, too.

yeah tetsuo is really cool. never saw the second though..

i didnt even like gummo..but it was disturbing

one time my friends downloaded some videos off of stile project or something of a guy cutting of his finger and some other things i probably shouldny actually describe. that was pretty damn disturbing..bdgah..*shudders in rememberance*
for something GOOD and disturbing david lynch dilivers usually. eraserhead and blue velvet could be life changing.

Martin Scorsese's Casino gets rather disturbing at times. *SPOILER!* In the scene with Nicky Santoro and his son getting clobbered with a shedload of ball bats, they basically get beaten to the point where they look like raw hamburger. */SPOILER* It's not a good dinner movie.

I saw Alien as a kid, and regretted it later that night. I woke up at perhaps 1 AM in tears. It's more dark and foreboding than the action-powered sequel Aliens that came out a few years after.

RoboCop 2 had some scenes in it that gave me a sharp pang of nausea. The first RC has nothing on it. Starship Troopers also gave me that same feeling at times (Paul Verhoeven has the knack for that).

Thir13en Ghosts will make you jump at times, but it has nothing on Alien. The lawyer death scene is one to see. The house has some infernal machinery inside it that looks quite foreboding- actually moreso than the ghosts.

The hands-down most unsettling film I've ever seen was Jacob's Ladder. heh...it's also my all-time favorite. It documented hell and insanity perfectly IMO. I recently got the special edition DVD, and the deleted scenes make it all the more harrowing.

Session 9 also freaked me out.

So does John Carpenter's Prince of Darkness for some reason - it's not a very good film, but it pushes my freak-out buttons.

Poltergeist and Poltergeist 2 cost me many nights of sleep as a kid.

The razor scene in Reservoir Dogs always makes me sick.

When Harold Perrineau got eaten by the bear in The Edge, I got very upset. I hate it when people get eaten by animals in films. *shiver*


Nothing personal, Korian, but I thought Frailty was terrible.

[Despair]

I like Prince of Darkness too, Bio. Something in that movie really scares me. Atmosphere, music, the way those people become posesed by evil liquid Great film.

Exorcist 3 is also great, creepy film. One scene will definately freak you out

I also like Poltergeist 3, that one is also very creepy.

[Korian]

BioMechanic what didn't you like about Frailty? I thought it was very good.

Event Horizons is pretty good. Seven's also one of those "shake your head in disbelief" movies. The king of disturbing has to go to Pet Semetary though. The whole issue of a child dying is just such a terrible thought that some people thought that the movie would be unfilmable. If you wanna see something less disturbing and more on the creepy side, try watching The Wizard Of Oz and listening to Pink Floyd's Darker Side Of The Moon
