I tried watching it a year or so back. I didn't make it to the end either...I got exasperated with the jerky camera movements and murky visuals.

Worth the price of admission for the opening scene alone--Scarlett in sheer undies.

I'm thinking you won't feel the same way, however.

Another one I have heard odd stories about is 'I Spit On Your Grave'. Has anyone seen that one?

sextonseven said:

Yes, I'm guilty of seeing that one as well. It's an extraordinarily tasteless (and poorly made) rape-revenge movie. Pardon the cliche, but it's one of those movies that's so sleazy you will feel like having to shower afterwards.

I've never been on the verge of throwing up or passing out, but I have WALKED OUT out many a shitty movie.

Seriously though, aside from herky-jerky camera movements, the idea of images in a film actually causing someone to feel physically ill is a totally alien concept to me. Maybe I really am just a cold and unfeeling person, destined to walk this planet forever alone. Woe is me.

VoicesCarry said:

I've never done that either. I'm too cheap. I'm going to get my money's worth and see a film to the end even if it's pure crapola. I've even suffered through terrible free films in their entirety (like pre-'Mysterious Skin' Gregg Araki) because I feel my time would be wasted even more if I didn't see how the story was resolved.

sextonseven said:

I just go and take 2 minutes and read about the conclusion online. Besides, most of these movies you know how it's going to turn out, anyway, if they're formulaic Hollywood bullshit at least.

sextonseven said:

I actually paid to see Doom Generation. Only redeeming feature: Rose McGowan. It's still amazing and puzzling to me that someone who made something so worthless could make Mysterious Skin.

i have a friend who is friends with Gregg who i think is pissed at me for saying that Gregg's previous films were shite.

but cha know what? i can not tell a lie...those films are all horrible. HORRID.

That girl is stunning. She was born to star in B movies. Look at some of these lobby cards for Planet Terror.

damosuzuki said:

I saw that on cable. Then, not having learned my lesson, subsequently watched 'Nowhere'. Fool me twice...

sosgemini said:

It's really puzzling that I agreed to see 'Mysterious Skin' with friends considering I didn't even know Gregg didn't write that movie beforehand (which I'm sure is the reason why it didn't suck). I'm a real masochist.

VoicesCarry said:

she is painfully sexy.

Guess Im the only one who can tolerate 70's satanic sex porn

Do you ever cry at movies?

Not throw up or pass out but because of my dentist phobia...



...I have to turn away every time Sir Laurence shows up with his "tools" in Marathon Man.

My own dentist actually told me about some Nazi film where someone gets tortured by getting their teeth drilled.

The Blair Witch Project made me feel car sick because of the way it was filmed....

DanceWme said:

It was pretty bad. The 1st was great, the 2nd, the return with the military to the outpost, then the 3rd with the prison crew.....I never liked the last one.

"Crash" -the Cronenberg one

jerseykrs said:

lol. first time that was on tv over here i was in my room watching
it and my brother was flicking channels in his room and when he´d
got to Graffiti Bridge, prince was just doing New Power Generation
with his face painted in stripes and he called

"omg prince turned into adam ant. do you like this? are you gay?"



i think prince actually made me gay that day

anyway, my friend works at the local morgue, so i´ve seen a fair share
of dead people. even accident deaths so i´m used to "gore" so to speak

it isn´t until it is used as screenfiller in actionfilms that it kinda
makes me sick cuz you have a real life reference of the people being
killed in a crash or something. it´s not just 2 seconds on celluloid,
but a whole grieving family and friends etc

but the one movie that made me sick to my stomach was something i´ve
seen a few years ago on tv in the middle of the night. it started out
quite normal so i thougt "great, an italian arthouse film"



i wish i´d fallen asleep though cuz at one point there was some guy
setting up a film camera in his garage and he had this victim on a
chair and cut of their hand and then stuffed it in their mouth and
later put it on their head.... amongst other things.

it was just really really disturbing

I don't get queasy at all except for.....PINK FLAMINGOS. The famous dog shit eating scene. That was the only one.
