It all comes down to what disturbs you.
Rape? Eating vomit or excrement? Self mutilation of body parts? Ritualistic torture murders? Animal Cruelty? These movies have all of these and more. It depends on what disturbs you in what context. How would we do a rating system, __V__? This movie has made the list for: Nails through the penis:D

You could do a Joe Bob Briggs kind of thing: 10 dead bodies, 15 severed limbs, tongue slicing foo, vomit foo...

I dunno...its just a thought. Maybe a rating system - number of stars displaying the amount of disturbing content in it. But then, disturbing could mean both physical, gorific and sickening, OR mental, draining and affecting the psyche. Mind you, Requiem of a Dream might score more stars than say, Stacy, because its a deep study of psychological downward spiral into becoming a total mess. So I am undecided about the exact criteria here.

In all seriousness, I'll do some thinking about it.
PM me and let me know your ideas. Maybe we can come up with something.

Thank you for your input oh forefathers of HDC. I was just wanting to pick the brain of someone who had seen all of the movies. But I think that some type of countdown would be great. Your top 100 list was great so I would definitely trust the brains behind the judging.

One I can personally vouch for is Cutting Moments. I wrote the blurb for it in the HDC Hidden Gems list. Brilliant, ugly short film. I suggest you get Bucks Family Portraits, which has Cutting Moments and two other very strong shorts.

Not all the films on the list will affect everyone the same way, but all the films contain an element that several judges ageed upon as "disturbing" - which is of course, a nebulous term. this of every film on this list as having a big yellow "WARNING - view at your own peril" sticker on them. That's all the more rating any of these films need. If you want great films, go through the other lists (and I'm not saying there aren't some truly great films in this list) because these films are compiled purely for thier ability to make you cringe.

Say whether their funny, sick, torture, supernatural and then just rate them out of ten;
Inside - disturbing, gory 10/10 Irreverisble - rape, brutal 6/10 Murder Set Pieces (Uncut) - slasher 8/10 Seed - Serial killer 9/10 Audition - asian extreme T. Miike 9/10 Event horizon - scifi supernatural 8/10 Cure - japanese serial killer 8/10 and so on . . . . its the only way to get an overall idea of what everyone thinks, just sub genre it. You could do it by just simple types like slasher/ torture/ supernatural/ black comedy/ gore/ psychological etc.:) |

Oh i completely forgot about Philosophy of a knife. 9/10 extreme torture but beautifully filmed. Very good film but only if you ve got a very strong stomach. Ive seen alot of disturbing films but this really did push to the extreme and because its so close to reality it becomes more than just another horror torture movie.
