That's good to hear... Seems Mel Gibson found his calling in directing some great epic like stuff, "Braveheart" is one of my all time favorite movies ever and if this one is anything like it I know I'll love it...

Neversin.

i rented that from the video store...never got to watch it...all i know it was a colab. between Craven and the TCM dude...hmm, think i'll actually watch it next time i get it...BUT NO SPOILERS!!!

Graffiti Bridge.

Pearl Harbour I was shocked at how filmmakers could take a real life tragedy and turn it into an awful film with absolutely no emotional resonance whatsoever! Truly frightning!

He watched his mother get friggin' shot!

Brubaker early 80's?
that movie scared the living hell out of me. That was the day I knew I was going to live on the straight & narrow.

Angeldust-70's
This was the movie that told me I would never ever ever never ever do hard drugs still love the occasional budda/anime fest.

Audition-asain film
This move gets truly twisted can't watch but won't take eyes off the screen.

Jaws
saw it when I was 8/9 went to beach(lake michigan) on a fieldtrip the next day would not get into water.

Rosemary's Baby & Exorsist were scarier reads, had to sneak and read them in the attic when I was a child, U get lost in the book & look up & it's night & the attic gets awfully dark at night me, my lamp & all of that dark space. Ran as fast as I could down those steps.

oh yes DANCER IN THE DARK was disturbing

Yes it is the same movie.....This is a very good horror movie. It´s a mindblowing experience. Like "The Ring", "Dark Water", "Tetsuo" or other "absurd" masterpieces it really wakes you up to the horror of day to day reality. Some of the scenes in "Audition" (Oodishon) are so disgusting that I cannot recommend it unless one is a horror"fan". Anyway. It´s really good. It´s like "American Psycho" on screen. Very realistic and sadistic. Some of the horror was very scary. What´s up with these cute Japanese women as monsters? (The Ring also - Hidako and Asami - maybe they should make a Hidako vs. Asami like the American Freddy vs. Jason). One of the scenes in Audition, by the way, is so disgusting it almost made me puke, and it´s worse than Se7en. It had the disturbing feeling i had when i watched Misery.....

The Last Temptation of Christ. I saw it when I was 19 and I couldn't sleep for 2-3 nights afterwards. Not because of the violence, but because of seeing a fictional account of Jesus tormented and unsure of himself. When your Lord and Savior is depicted as lacking direction, it causes you to think.

I have a much different perspective now.

Hopefully, "The Passion" won't give me similar fits.

Its not scary, just disturbing...

there just aren't that many 'horror' movies that are really, truly scary., but, i do love horror flicks. lately the ones i've seen that are disturbing are

13 gantry row

chasing sleep

Don't laugh, please. I can think of 2 horror flicks that have disturbed me. An American Werewolf in London is one of them. I first saw this at Summer camp when I was 11, and it just scared the bejeeezus outta me.

Also, A Clockwork Orange was pretty crazy too. I haven't seen all of it, I'll admit, but from what I had seen and read about in different sources, it was pretty disturbing.

I'm pretty sure these flicks are not scary at all to some of you. But for me, it is. I don't know why, but it just is.

the honeymoon killers

requiem for a dream and the ring.

both of those movies got under my skin and i still think about them sometimes. requiem for a dream has it's own fucked up little website that only makes things worse. The ring scared me for months at at time. I had a hard time sleeping in a room with a tv in it for quite sometimes. it'll still get to me if i'm tired enough and not thinking straight.

Oh...I dont need 2 bother watching it now then seen as u have given away pivotal plot points Chris!!!

I'd go for: 'Faces of Death' - I know this is gonna sound fucking lame, but when i was a young and impressionable teenager I used 2 hang with this older 'metal' crowd - long story short, this 'film' got put on one night, and It really unnerved me - but I couldnt get up and leave, cuz they were taking the piss that I couldnt take it and all that crap, so I had all these shitty images imprinted on my mind...like that poor fucking monkey getting its skull smashed in with a mallet after being locked in2 that table with a hole in so it couldnt move...TRULY fucking disturbing and exploitative SHIT.

It still messes with me if I think about it. Some fucked up bastards out there.

requiem for a dream

the piano player with isabelle huppert

blue soldier, I think that´s the name of the film, I dont remember it very well as I watched when I was a kid but it´s kind of a western from the 70s and it includes a terrible last part where an entire village of American Indians get horribly massacred

The scariest film i have seen, well wot i can remember of it is "The Candy man" i was young when i watched it, well 3 years ago
[This message was edited Thu Feb 26 14:05:50 2004 by andykeen]

yes

its called the evening news


allot of sequels being churned out on this one

shausler said:

True that. When I was living in the USA I had to stop watching the news all together because I found it to be much too disturbing, more terrifying then any movie. I was relieved to finally go back home to Oz.

Film wise though I must say the most disturbing I've seen are The Exorcist, Omen (I & II), Rosemary's Baby, One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest & Apocalypse Now.

Tobe Hopper ROCKS!!!! He also directed Poltergiest and the tv version of Salem's Lot.

HAS ANYONE NOTICED THAT THE SINGLE FOR MICHAEL JACKSON'S BUTTERFLIES HAS ALMOST THE SAME ARTWORK AS THE POSTER FOR SILENCE OF THE LAMBS? (WITH THE BUTTERFLY ON THE MOUTH)



THAT SCARED ME.




.

oh wait, and 'the talented mr ripley' which wasn't really done in an overtly 'horror' format, but i found it really disturbing/horrifying also silence of the lambs and hannibal.

XxAxX said:

And just imagine it is the same director who directed this yeatrs "Cold Mountain"....Anthony Mingella...

I usually tend to find psychological horror films the most disturbing and I suppose the one film that really sticks out in my mind is The Shining. There is a real sense of terror and unease throughout right from the opening shot of the family car driving through the mountains onwards to the Overlook Hotel. This is not helped my the film score! Legend has it my Mother nearly had a miscarriage with me as my Father and Godfather laughed uneasily on seeing it on release at the cinema!

Yeah, I seen that. Shame the single never made it out of the pressing plant.
