Maybe a movie you watched growing up - during that impressionable phase
before we were all so desenzitised...

Maybe that's another argument for the classics being better. Directors were forced to use creativity and their craftsmanship to make movies whereas now, they waste time and money on effects or cheapening themselves by using shock factor ie. this is the basis for the recent trend for 'torture porn' or 'gornography'. The only one of those movies that I would say was a 'great' or ground breaking was the original Saw, the rest is pretty poor.
