Tell me the hardest scene to watch on film..
 
For me ..there is a scene in Opera where the killer is in a dressing/sewing room and is stabbing someone and the victim is holding there hands in front of there face and the killer is stabbing through the persons hands and penetrating the victims face (eye's)... Very hard to watch.. But worth every second.

Ive never seen that movie. Sound ok though. Watch one of the Guinea Pig Films, Sickest stuff I have ever seen.

ChEEbA 08-30-2005 07:21 AM

A few animals were killed onscreen in cannibal holocaust, I didn't like that, yeah, I know, it happens...but, for the sake of a movie?
That's not cool, and I didn't like watching it.

The razorwire scene at the end of audition was kinda fucked up, but IMO, only the last 15 minutes of that film re actually worth watching. Check it out if you feel like being bored as hell MOST of the way through.

I always found the "puppet" scene in NOES 3 fascinating, yet disgusting at the same time.

Also, I haven't seen it, but I understand Rosemarys Killer (aka prowler) was pretty greusome.

GorePhobia 08-30-2005 07:35 AM

the part in Evil Death Trap (Japanese) where the killer slowly pushes a knife into a womans eye

looks very real and disgusting

The scene in May where the blind kids get into the broken glass was tough for me to watch. It's funny, but I can watch any number of other eye-related scenes with no problem, but that one really got to me for some reason.

As mentioned above, the animal killings in the Italian cannibal genre are exceptionally hard to stomach (but are sadly essential to give the likes of Cannibal Holocaust their "edge" over other jungle capers).

Slaughterhouse footage from many mondo compilations is similarly distressing (yet I eat meat, so I'll sit with the rest of you hypocrites).

The protracted stabbing sequence from Saving Private Ryan is very ugly, as are the baseball bat-attacks and head-vicing in Casino.

As far as out-and-out exploitation movies go, there are far too many contientious scenes to mention.

Try the erect cock/suicide scene from the end of Nekromantik - incredible how such a challenging scenario is made so cinematic by Jorg Buttregeit's direction and the fabulous soundtrack.

I seem to recall thinking that the last fifteen minutes or so of SUSPIRIA were almost unbearable to sit through...such an overbearing feeling of demonic evil. Jesus Christ, what kind of a wacko would make a movie like that.

the scene in clockwork orange where they put the clips in alex's eyes...and the drops.

the scene in zombie where the women gets pulled through the door and her eye gets pierced by a bit of wood.

the scene in plunkett and mccain with the guy getting his eyes gouched out.

the scene in terror at the opera where the killer tapes the pins on the woman's lower eyelids.

i also thought the scene in land of the dead where two zombies rip a dead body's arm lenghtwise down to the elbow was pretty gruesome.

Yellow Jacket 08-31-2005 10:27 PM

The scene in Dead Alive when the group at the dinner table are eating the pudding. The one dude was eating the old lady's (who was now the living dead) blood and then, I think, he eats her ear. She might've eaten her own ear though. Haven't seen it in awhile.

Anyway, that, for some odd reason, was the hardest scene for me to watch. I actually had to look away from the tv just so I didn't puke. Disgusting scene, man!

GeekLove 08-31-2005 10:30 PM

I can handle any type of torture, killing, & maiming of humans, but I can't handle the killing of innocent animals in movies. Guinea Pig movies, Cannibal Holocaust, Men Behind the Sun-difficult to watch.

BH14 08-31-2005 10:33 PM

Probably watching the puppets have some hardcore sex in the movie "Team America World Police". This was a long scene too. Very weird.

Oh, that reminds me...
The sex between the puppets in Peter Jackson's " Meet the Feebles. " I wanted to gouge my eyes out! That movie was disturbing.

I always turn my head away...have never managed to watch:

- the scene when the splinter enters the woman's eye in Zombi.

- when the ghost crawls down the steps in the ending of (japanese version) The Grudge.

- when Asami gleefully stars torturing the man in Audition.

Elvis_Christ 09-01-2005 03:15 AM

Anything with Tom Hanks in it.

Zombee 09-01-2005 08:36 AM

I totally forgot about the wood splinter scene in Zombie..god that was hardcore.

pinkfloyd45769 09-01-2005 01:50 PM

I hate watching babies or children being killed, sacrificed, or anything that is just wrong. They have no idead what is even going on and personally I hate to watch it.

filmmaker2 09-01-2005 02:11 PM

At the moment, the hardest thing for me to watch is the hurricane devastation in New Orleans.

You'll love the third Omen movie then :)

Needle injections.

Cleopatra
 
Any scene in 'Cleopatra' in which Elizabeth Taylor is actually talking.

"Antony!!! I thought you were dead!!!"

(There's horror, and then there's HORROR.)

zomb5150 09-02-2005 06:22 AM

I think Mothermold mentioned this one already, the eye gouging scene in Zombie2, it made me cringe.

Haunted 09-02-2005 06:53 AM

The spider walk scene in the Exorcist. It's one of my favorite scenes, but it just makes me cringe.

The twisty-faces in both Ring movies. They just make me...I don't know. Faces shouldn't look like that....ever.

I agree with the spider-walk scene. Its one of my first memories of being scared during a movie.

I used to not be able to watch the twisty face scenes in The Ring, but I finally forced myself to. I liked it :)

EXTR3MIST 09-03-2005 06:25 AM

Wasn't the spider-walk scene only recently inserted into the movie, in the "Special Edition" and "Version You've Never Seen" releases?

The trouble with it is that it removes any doubt to all involved that Regan is possessed from that moment - making her mother's uncertainty that something is wrong with her daughter later on in the film somewhat redundant.

Plus, the whole special effect looked rather wooden to me - I think the original cut of The Exorcist is still the best, with the suggestive, brooding menace of the girl stuck in bed far more terrifying.

I also found the beginning of 'Irreversable' is pretty bad (skull caved in with a fire extinguisher)

SPLATTERGORIA 09-03-2005 11:34 PM

I have absolutely no trouble watching any scene in any movie.

Say, in the Exorcist, when reagan spins her head a full 360, wouldnt that kind of give them the impression that she is indeed possessed as well?

The scene at the dinner table in the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre is still the hardest scene for me to watch. There is just something about that scene that unsettles me to an absurd degree, no matter how many times I watch it.

Sorry about that, I wont make that mistake again. :eek:

RoLLiNLiGhTs 09-05-2005 12:25 PM

I'd have to say Dakota Fanning's whinning in War of the Worlds....
Not saying I don't think she's a good acteress or anything....It actually made it hard to watch...IMO:)

bwind22 09-05-2005 12:47 PM

No question about it... The savage getting his penis hacked off in Cannibal Holocaust takes the cake. I've seen it about four times and I could still swear it's not a prosthetic or prop! (ANyone know for sure?)

Real or not, that's the sickest fucking scene I've ever seen!

I also felt rather uncomfortable seeing a nun get raped by a crucifix in the unrated version of Bad Lieutenant. That was rather scarring...

A more mainstream scene that is pretty difficult to stomach is the girl shaving her legs in Cabin Fever and her skin just starts shaving off too. That was well done.

Exorcist is weak. Check out Cannibal Holocaust (If you can find it.)and then say you have no problem watching any scene in any movie.

Haunted 09-05-2005 01:04 PM

I don't think the Exorcist is weak at all. Give me EXTREME gore any day of the week. I can eat sausage spaghetti and watch Cannibal Holocaust. It's the psychological terror of a good supernatural horror fest that really intrests me.

Horrible gore is good, but it's like drinking five huge margaritas and not even getting tipsy. It was fun, but it doesn't leave me with anything. However, movies like the Exorcist or the Ring cycle get under my skin and crawl around to the darkest corners of my mind.

It's all about personal preference. You can't judge people by their prefence in horror. Everybody's got a taste for something.

This would make sense considering you seem to believe in supernatural things more than I do. To me, movies like those just suck because I don't see any realistic possibility in them.

And I didn't judge anyone, I just told him to watch CH before he said that.
