I can't watch stuff like Cannibal Holocaust. And I've often wondered if that lizard in Argento's DEEP RED really is peirced by a needle. Sure looks realistic.

And of course, there's the (true) story of at least one horse dying during the remake of My Friend Flicka (just called Flicka).

They provide a LOT of insight to animal treatment in film, I've been there a lot myself. Good link. There are some HORRIBLE things done to animals in films, it's reprehensible how many movies have the "Unacceptable" rating.
