Wait- there's a nude scene in life of brian? Really? I watched it when I was 6, I can't remember it being anything but a fun family film. Although it did have the word shit in it, but then I didn't learn what that meant for another 5 years or so.Quaxar said:
Great call with the mention of Super. That is the epitome of disturbing. What makes it so horrible is that it is uncomfortably grounded in reality, which is unusual for superhero/vigilante stories. So what you're left with is literally just a man with serious mental difficulties struggle to function in a dark world. That is disturbing.
There is a movie called Tideland, made by one of the Monty Python gang; Terry Gilliam. Now this may suffer from the same problem as 'A Serbian Film' (although I cannot stress how different those two films are) in that there is such a dark undercurrent running throughout, that nothing particularly stands out, as every situation is a dark and horrible one. In Tideland, we follow a very young girl as she gets on with her incredibly miserable life. I won't spoil it by detailing quite how terrible her life is, but suffice it to say that no one would want it. The movie is shot in an almost fairytale style, as we literally view life as the little girl sees it. But as you can imagine, the world can be a horrible place, and she is faced with some nasty stuff.
If I were to choose one part that made me feel genuinely uncomfortable (which is very hard to do), I'd have to mention a relationship that she forges with an older boy (with severe learning difficulties) who lives nearby. They become friends and eventually the older boy suggests some sort of sexual activity, I can't remember specifics, but I remember feeling incredibly uncomfortable. Like I said, it is shown through a child's eyes, and neither of them really understand what sex is, so neither is necessarily in the wrong, but nonetheless, it just didn't sit right with me. Funnily enough, it ends up being a very enjoyable and oddly sweet movie.

I believe they're talking about the movie Super, not Wedding Crashers.j-e-f-f-e-r-s said:
Speaking of Super, you learn something weirdly disturbing if you watch the DVD with the director's commentary on:
He says that in real life, God spoke to him. So Frank Darbo's (Rainn Wilson's character) hallucinations are based on what director James Gunn actually experienced.
The bit in Prometheus where...
the girl gets her stomach sliced open and the alien baby is pulled out of her. I'm not one to get sick during movies, but that bit nearly broke my streak.
No mention of Eraserhead? Really? Reaaaaaaaaaaaally?
That whole goddamn movie is disturbing.

I didn't either the first time, I only noticed when I saw it again a few years later. But it's right there, both Brian himself and Judith in <url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Monty_Python%27s_Flying_Circus_episodes#8._Full_Frontal_Nudity>full frontal nudity:Fractral said:

Although, come to think of it, it may be possible that first time watching it was in some lower grade in school and we might have jumped the scene entirely.
You guys remember Forest Gump, right? The scene were Jenny sneaks into his dorm room and has sex with him. How would people feel if the sexes were reversed? A male sneaking into a girl's dormitory to have sex with a mentally handicapped girl would be really creepy. This has already been mentioned before but after hearing it from the guys at RLM, it kind of stuck in my craw.
In The Crazies (the remake)
Also the bit towards the start of Dredd where a man is reduced to a screaming jack-o-lantern.
And, looking at you guys who have seen all these weird ass Japanese and what not films... Well, how? How could you do that?
when the guy is in the funeral home and finds a man with his "X"'s stitched into his eyes and another guy W? his mouth sown shut, followed by the electric bone saw bit... Ick.

It's not creepy at all. He travels to visit her and she sneaks him into her dormroom.("I think I ruined your roomate's bathrobe") It's only weird because it's very weird situation for him as a character and he shows it. At that point his only experience with sex was listening to his mom and his army mates fucking with him. But really it's just a mentally handicapped person losing their virginity to their childhood love. Akwardness is to be expected.BrionJames said:

Continuing with the thread:
Sucking another man's blood off the floor because it contains the brain-boosting drug NZT.
Jennifer Jason Leigh gets chained up as a human link between a semi and its trailer. Don't watch that movie. It's a bummer.
Young boy gets absorbed; a man gets broken in half and sucked through a small crack, just...yikes.
The ending. Oh man, the ending....
Guilty conscience: I'm actually using this thread to search for new movies to watch. So wrong.
In Game of Thrones Episode 6 (or the first book, if you prefer).
Drogo pours molten gold over Viserys' head. It could have been a lot worse, they didn't show his face melting or anything like that, but it's still unpleasant to watch, although unlike the female on male rape things that have been posted, thst's almost certainly deliberate.
Agghh! You made me think about Ichi the Killer!Shoggoth2588 said:
But how do you consider it not psycho-sexual? I mean remembering these bits...
The part where he "rescues" and the prostitute being beaten by her pimp, then
"reassures" her by telling her "from now on, I'll beat you up!"
Not to mention the exchange when he was being reminded of the false memory implanted in him to help
drive him over the edge and recalling the girl who he thought was his friend being gang-raped prompted
this "fun" little exchange....
"I wanted to rape her too."
"You mean you wanted to help her."
"No, I wanted to rape her."

please pardon me while I go throw up now.....
yeah that kind of got quite close to species 2 pregancy/birth scene. Almost made me gag(although it looks worse on a big screen then on tv.HeWhoFightsBosses said:
Girl gets impregnated with alien dna. Nine month preganacy happens in less then a couple of hours. When it is time for the baby to be born the womens belly opens up like a flower (to put it nicely) and the baby more or less crawls out)
