Mordum is probably the top for me. It was a very tough watch. Most any other film that I've seen on the main list here (I've seen 40 of them so far) there is a definite disconnect for me. I might feel repulsed, disturbed, etc, but I always "know" that it's just a movie. Very few of them have had any lasting impact and usually when they do, it's not about the violence, but some deeper message in the film. Mordum... I don't know. I know it's fake of course, but just the way it's done, the brutality of it all, it just feels quite real. It's the only film of it's type that I've seen so far that felt like a real glimpse into a serial killer's world. Mordum stuck with me for days afterward and not in a nice, contemplative way either.
