    David Lynch's 'Eraserhead' is the only film I've had to turn off halfway through ( I did end up watching it in full a few years later) and it's not that there's anything scary or super disturbing in it, but Lynch managed to create an atmosphere that I just found so oppressive i felt like I was losing part of myself watching it

    I didn’t walk out of this movie, this is just more of a funny story and how the marketing for the movie confused me (especially my mother). When Black Swan came out I really wanted to see it and so did my mum. My mum just assumed it was about ballet. I don’t remember exactly what I thought it was about but I wanted to see it. So we saw it together (which was awkward) and we both loved it. My mum was so confused that it ended up being a thriller. When we left the theatre, we talked to the ushers and my mum looks at them and says “I thought this movie was about ballerinas??” 😂😭

    i’ve had to turn off a couple horror movies, most of these i believed were too exploitative. i’m sick of horrors and thrillers using sexual assault against women as a scare factor. it’s can be extremely triggering for many people and i often get disappointed in a film that i am enjoying and then there is a graphic rape scene and i can’t continue watching

    • @ratfishking
      @ratfishking Před 2 lety +53

      I'm just hoping for the day the horror industry will stop using rape and sex as the main "appeal" of a movie. Like, are you guys seriously so uncreative that you don't know how to scare or shock without that? Weak. In my opinion, writers and directors that only make horror movies with scenes like that in them for shock value or to attract attention shouldn't be allowed to make horror movies. Go make something else, please. The world doesn't need more of this shit. (Sorry for being so abrasive hahaha it's something I'm really passionate about. I'm a little bit sex repulsed when it comes to the idea of real-life sex. But I do have reservations for fiction. The only horror movies that contain a sex scene that I remember enjoying are Jennifer's Body and Fear Street. Specially because they're gay, actually passionate, loving and make sense haha. Other than that, I always end up hating it.)

      @@milumav - Yes and no.
      People's tastes, triggers and limits vary and their are different kinds of 'scare'..... Plus; audiences are increasingly cynical and harder to effect as time goes by (compare censorship and social standards in relation to 30s horror vs 70s horror vs 2000's and beyond).
      Some films use extreme psychology and gore to pose difficult questions to the viewer. Someone in this thread began speaking of Henry and how horrific it is (even though it's not especially graphic), yet It's a perfect example in that it provokes relative sympathy towards Henry when compared to Otis (perhaps even hoping he can have a 'happy-ever-after' outcome) only for it to pull the rug from under you at the very end.
      Brilliant, brilliant movie.
      As for the above point about female victims; in most cases it's a mechanism of exploiting vulnerability to build empathy & vicarious fear around (rather than outright conceptual hostility towards women).... Comparatively, that just isn't there when positioning men vs men in similar confrontations. When considering the final girl trope one ought to consider two things in particular: 1) it's all the more triumphant when they do prevail and 2) the guys have typically already been wiped out by that point.
      (FWIW; to give context to these comments, I am a 47 y/old who grew up with gore but have since grown out of much of it........ Despite this; I don't condone a low censorship threshold.)

    After watching Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer, I decided to stop watching movies about people doing horrible things to other people. I gave myself a line to not cross because of that movie. Torture porn? Nope. Rape/revenge movies? No thanks. I'll still watch movies about serial killers or slashers, but if it's going to focus on pain or torture, I don't need that. I've never walked out on a movie, but I should have walked out of the Nightmare on Elm Street remake. Bad acting, bad visuals, and really nailed home the idea that Freddy was "into" kids.

      So what about I spit on your grave for example. I as a survivor of Sexual assault and rape myself really appreciate that the film doesnt shy away from the gross and disturbing nature that is sexual assult and the pain and rage it causes the victim like myself.
      If anything the movie actually helped me understand that what was happening to me as a child was not and never will be ok. Yes the movies are extreme and shocking but so is the world and I also feel as a victim myself that these films sometimes help victims cope with failed justice plus the real world will always be more disturbing.

The movie never shows anything but there's a scene where you see the boys scattering in their cages and screaming, trying to get away and I almost threw up.

When Hopper "died" at the end, I didn't feel emotionally invested and did not buy Eleven's feelings towards her former adoptive father, because what little screentime they shared together, it was unpleasant and they acted like they hated each other.

      I think several moments in the film are very impactful. And I certainly felt bad for all the characters involved. But Hereditary felt more like an examination of mental health and grief than a horror. Without the last twenty minutes it would have fallen squarely in "drama." I like my horror films full of horror and don't really care for the philosophical commentary. Don't get me wrong. It isn't a bad movie at all. It's just not the movie I want when I think of horror.

      Yeah, I couldn't finish that one either. House of 1000 Corpses felt way too out there for me, not my cup of tea just stylistically, but then I gave Devil's Rejects a try and it was waaay too gritty and realistic for me, it felt too much like something that would actually happen and therefore felt uncomfortable for me to watch as a sequel, when the characters we are familiar with are in fact the villains. I made it about halfway and quit. Never going to revisit that one.

    The one movie that disturbed me was "The Nightingale", although I did watch it two times during its theater run, because I loved it. I went in blind only having read as far as all the reports of people walking out . I was witness to one couple that left. It was on my 2nd viewing (the drive to the theater was very relaxing) that I saw a couple who left during "the scene". When the scene started a couple stood up and was about to leave. When they thought the scene was over, they were about to sit back down, but the scene got worse and they left. As horrific and violent as those "scenes" were in the movie, they still aren't as bad as the one scene I could never rewatch...and that is the subway tunnel scene in Irreversible.

Who gets upset over the death of a completely made-up creature, which probably dies because it's trying to eat/roast people? There's a line between advisories about things which are totally understandable (we've probably all experienced the death of a pet and don't care to be reminded of it), and just enabling irrational issues which have nothing to do with reality.

    When it comes to Salo, I read the novel before seeing the film and I was completely traumatized by what I read. The movie has very disgusting scenes, but it’s an episode of Teletubbies compared to the stuff in the novel. Even though it was never completed, the contents of the book are 10000000 worse than anything they show in the film. At a certain point, the story stops and it basically becomes a massive list of vile and extremely graphic sexual acts described in vivid detail that left me wondering how anyone could be this sick to write these things down, and literally get off to them.. I won’t repeat any of the things listed, because they should never ever be repeated, but I will say some of the worst ones include pregnant women or women who have just given birth.

I put the book down and of course will never watch the movie. And others I won’t even mention. I don’t like realistic torture type stuff, especially with women/children victims. I’m not really sure why some things seemingly so much worse don’t bother me while other stuff that seems tame can linger for years. But part of the reason I keep watching/reading is this need to somehow make sense of suffering, especially of the helpless or innocent or good. There are other reasons I believe in God but one is that the alternatives are unacceptable to me. The idea of no God or an evil/apathetic one making this life random and suffering pointless- that’s true horror to me. I need to believe good wins in the end and that my creator is good. I can’t change the facts and believing hurts a lot less. But sometimes it’s hard. Horror movies exist because real life horror exists. My most recent scene that haunted me was from The Night They Knocked, the pool ball scene. I closed my eyes. But I’m glad I watched, I loved the character arc of the younger brother and the end had me actually say out loud this better happen because it’s the only bright spot in that hopeless bleakness I felt seeing the scene that revealed just what they’re up against in gruesome fashion.

    I love Headless/Salo/964 Pinocchio (I've covered Headless and have thought about doing 964 Pinocchio at some point), but I totally get why they're things other people don't want to sit through. The beauty of the genre is there's something for basically everyone, which is sort of funny, considering the subject matter. :p

    I can't do drool and body fluids and I watch some gnarly stuff. No one ever brings this movie up, and that's probably because it's not really a horror, but have you seen In the Realm of the Senses? It's considered a romance/drama but there is some pretty twisted stuff in it and it's based on a true story, which makes it even more effed up. Another film that left a mark is Takashi Miike's Visitor Q. No one talks about that one, either, which basically touches on every single possible taboo except for one, which I won't mention, couched in a very darkly funny (?) family drama.

    I've always been intrigued by disturbing cinema (if the film has some soul to it at least). The only thing I've ever had to put down was House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski. I wasn't in a particularly robust head space when I started it, and it just really messed me up. I was quite poorly for about 18 months. Basically became hyper-empathetic to the point where I really struggled with any fictional peril without it triggering a really thick sludgy anxiety that would pull my mood down really hard. I heard it had that affect on a fair few readers too. That's the power of extraordinarily clever psychological fractal and meta-fiction I suppose. That was a long time ago now though. Still, probably never going to bother having another crack at it...

    I watched “The house that Jack built” in the movie theater, it wasn’t packed or anything but by the end there were only 4 people left. I wanted to leave at some point, but just couldn’t bring myself to move. When I got to my car I was shivering for a few minutes. I’m surprised it doesn’t appear more often in these lists, it made a pretty huge impact on me…

    Wow, I actually agreed with all of your points in this one. I watched Salo 3 times trying to find any merit in it, and just can't. When you said it "feels like it's 4 hours long" I absolutely felt that. And I skipped on Stranger Things after season 2. It became clear that season 1 was inspired, and they had no real idea where to go after that. I'm just kinda over getting 80's slapped in my face constantly, instead of giving me compelling story lines. Yeah, I remember the 80's, they were fun, cause I was a kid.

Art can be used to explore the darkest and ugliest parts of the human condition, and there's value in that, but often at the cost of being what most would call enjoyable or even entertainment.

    I totally get what you are saying about Stranger Things. Season 1 was so good and mysterious, you had no idea what was going on, who Eleven was. It almost lost it's charm, when things got explained, and now "El" is just a regular girl. With season 3, the story has just changed so much, that it feels like a different show, it's a bit sad.
    I have never walked out of a cinema before, but I have turned off a movie from Netflix once. I don't remember what it was called, or really what it was about; something about a drug, or plant doing weird stuff to people? It was too weird and disturbing, I turned it off at a scene, with a woman twitching and screaming in pain, urgh.

    A chinese friend recommended "The Philosophy of a Knife" to me and... I think I finished it, but with breaks. It's about human experiments run by japan in ww2 in northern china. Basically, it's artsy torture porn with a loose plot and most disturbingly, stills from the actual site thrown in. I want to add that the experiments actually took place and that's why I watched it, because those atrocities happened and aren't spoken about that much. I basically learned about unit 731 through that movie and read more about it afterwards.
    I never walked out of a movie, but I did return my ticket an hour before the movie started after a friend warned me about a certain scene in "the shape of water". Really glad i did, it would have been a baaaad time for me. Probably a great movie, but triggers gonna trig and all that.
