When Bjork's character gets executed in Dancer In The Dark,,

more than fuckin' enough already what she's been encountering all along the film for her daughter, and she ends up THAT way, lord have mercy, it struck me badly the whole weekend

That was the 1st & last film that impacted me that way

is this towards the end of the film or something? i totally tried watching it a few weeks (late at night) and ended up falling asleep never to see the imfamous sceen.

her son, you mean?

and yeah, the end of that movie messed me up, too. i think it's because you don't expect a movie to have an unhappy ending like that.

That was a staged scene - the only scenes in Faces of Death that weren't staged are ones taken from stock footage or documentaries (vietnam footage, things like that). Everything else was faked. The whole film is basically a nastier take on mondo films from the sixties. The notion of restaurants in the middle east or africa providing live monkeys for customers to kill is an myth that mostly came from the FoD movie.

Do you ever cry at movies?

I had to fight from bursting into tears while watching the movie 'Serenity' the first time. Having been a fan of the 'Firefly' TV series and having grown attached to the characters, to see them being put through what they experienced in the film was almost too much. Joss Whedon has that effect on me.

I just watched The Descent again last night and forgot how freaking unnerving and disgusting and long that scene is where the girl broke her leg.

i almost rented that yesterday but the video store was out of it...if there's a long, grueling scene involving a broken bone, i won't be able to watch it. that's one thing that gets me light-headed for sure.

Anx said:

There are a lot more disgusting things in there than that. Especially the first encounter after the girl has broken her leg.

But the only that has made me gag was on the show Wild Boyz, with the dudes from Jackass. Steve-O actually drank some old mountain man's tobacco spit. I almost threw up for sure.

. ever see that movie 'the princess and the warrior' where they do an emergency tracheotomy with a ballpoint pen under a car?

Anx said:

I've yet to find the film that has made me throw up, though other people have vomited while watching some of the films that I own.

be that as it may, i really like your avatar.

I don't wanna think about the end of Pink Flamingos to much before eating....!

YUCK

Repulsorama!

i don't know why people get so hung up on that scene when there's far worse in that movie. the chicken fuck scene, the incest blow job, the singing pootyhole, the artificial insemination. the whole movie is just skanky!

Anx said:

Divine himself gags... Getting sick = throwing up = digestive function= eating feces

assholes, dead chickens, bj's, don't make me want to hurl, but the thought of eating some liquidy fresh dog shit, makes my stomach frown. In the grooves of your teeth, just the proximity of the smell would make you gag.

ufoclub said:

i guess that's true, but we all have our own gross-out triggers. like i said, i can't deal with broken bones in movies. or needles. or tracheotomies. that stuff gets me lightheaded to look at. a drag queen eating poop? sure, whatever. bring it on.

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.

In the whole rape/revenge genre, I Spit On Your Grave (hard to watch as it is) is actually one of the less sleazy options. Ever see House On The Edge Of The Park or Thriller: A Cruel Picture?

I watched the Faces Of Death movies,and I didn't know most of the scenes were staged. Most of them look pretty real,but then again I was younger when I saw them. I remember the scene with the monkey as well. When then showed the electric chair execution and the eyes popping against the bandages and then bleeding,that was faked as well?
