anyone seen the movie Creep?

[Mike]

I can watch zombie and slasher movies all day, but scenes like that one and the end of Saw where he saws his own foot off are really disturbing, although I have a morbid fascination with it. The gore does nothing...it's the context, feelings being conveyed by the actors, and psychology behind it that I find disturbing. Saw is a perfect example of it. It didn't even show him sawing it off, but you could hear him screaming coupled with the other guy begging him not to do it is really, really intense. Reality is so much more fucked up than fiction.

great scene, great acting, the more intense the emotions get in a "horror scene" the more realistic it becomes to me.

Watched it with some friends last summer when I was in Europe...
We had some space cookies an hour before watching this movie and let me tell you... it was ineteresting to watch.

Which scene made you almost puke, Laura?

You know, these are almost exactly the circumstances I watched the movie under.

The most disturbing movie I've ever seen was Irreversible. It was also one of the most thought-provoking and beautifully written films as well.

It was a very, very gruesome movie, albeit only in two parts. Still a great movie if you haven't seen it.

OH MY GOD! I'm so glad someone else knows about this movie!!
You are right.... one of the most disturbing.... well written...
oh my... I get chills thinking about that one scene...
(it it *NOT* a horror movie btw, but still worth seeing!!)

apparently that *one* scene from Irreversible is the worst scene of its kind ever. i'm fascinated enough to want to see it, but also really scared to.


ooo, this'll amuse people. i'm going to the women's hospital down the street to check into getting the pill, so i'll probobly have to get an *exam* and i'm STILL freaking out about that damn movie.

The thing that was so fucked up about *that* scene in Irreversible is that it was 10 minutes long and completely shot in one frame. The director didn't want to "eroticize" the scene by changing angles, as if one could eroticize something like that. He showed it in all it's disgusting, gruesome, terrifying, and despicable glory, not for shock value, but to give the viewer a real taste of what it would be like to be in that situation. I think I started crying when I saw that scene, literally.

You'll hate all men after you watch that scene.

The worst part about it is that when it finally shows that scene, you remember the very first scene, compare the two, and then you start to get pissed.

It's very real. There isn't always successful revenge or vindication in real life, and this movie is about as real as it gets.

There was another movie with a brutal rape scene. I forget the name of the movie though. I don't remember it so well, but it was like 4 guys raping a woman. It turned out to being 15 or 20 minutes longs, something like that.
Not as powerful as Irreversal, but still pretty fucked up.

I think all those Alpha male, cheauvanistic assholes should be forced to watch that scene in the same manner that Alex from A Clockwork Orange was forced to watch the films in that movie.

People actually joke and brag about things like that and it's disgusting.

Baise' Moi? Was it a French movie?

That movie had some really fucked up things in it, not to mention that it's practically a porno.

Could've been 'I Spit On Your Grave'. That movie looked pretty fucked up.

The double-rape in 'Straw Dogs' was fairly brutal in its day, at least.

That was it, I Spit On Your Grave

 

[Dead Winter]

But with I Spit On Your Grave, she got her revenge, so at the end the viewer feels slightly relieved/grossed out. Not so with Irreversible.
