Apart from the documentary "army medicine in vietnam" (neither torture or a movie.Just footage from real-life weapon injuries and surgery) which we had to see in the army, only "men behind the sun" can top it, and in this movie the torture scenes are s-i-c-k. Actually there was real-life torture in this movie, on cats and rats. In one scene you can see a cat beeing eaten alive by hundred of rats - a gruesome scene indeed, and yes its real. Later they pour gazoline on the rats and ignite them..
But for the parts of the film that depicts the torture on the chinese, they are sick and many. Probably best to stay clear of this movie if your not interested in a mashup between war movie and exploitation movie.

I did a thread called Cannibal Holocaust vs. Men Behind The Sun where we talked about the issue of non-simulated animal killings in film (people had a lot of interesting things to say).
An addition to Memorable Torture Scenes:
Philosophy Of A Knife - a brutal 4 hour documentary/art-house/torture-porn film about Unit 731.
