Bible Black is just sick. If you want to be angry/horrified/profoundly-upset by something then it is definitely for you. It wins most extreme brutal messed up Anime series ever I think.
I'll also repeat everyone with Elfen Lied. We are all saying it because it is a MUST see. You are really missing out if you haven't.
If you want to just go with messed up awesome Death Note if you haven't already.

Baccano has a bit of gore in it, so id reccommend it maybe. Also angel sanctuary, i havent seen the anime but i read the manga and it was pretty gory. Also Black Lagoon and Gantz r awesome.
( adding everything i havent got here to my list )

Hellsing, the manga, I know you asked for anime but the anime adaptation of Hellsing is toned down and has very little to do with the Manga. There is a series of OVAs, Helling Ultimate, that follow the Manga ad verbatem but so far these are up to vol 6 (or 7?) of 10. I'm surprised that no one has mentioned the twisted mind game of forced murder that is Battle Royal. First it was a book, then it was a movie, then a Manga and OVA adaptation. Not sure if the OVA was ever released outside of Japan and it may not be subbed yet either, but check out Battle Royal anyway.
Im glad that someone ninja'd gantz. That anime is batshit crazy. And I watched a fair bit of Elfen Lied, but i'd say that Gantz is just brutal in comparison.. I mean.. A chick loses her bottom half via acid, spine hanging out and everything, thats just epic.
Hmm Higurashi isn't THAT gory apart from a couple of scenes. I did love those scenes in the Shion answer arc though.
Bible black isn't gory either, think the only scene with blood is the ritual as far as I can remember. There are so many things so much worse in terms of gore and sex.
OT: Highschool of the dead has been mentioned a few times and it looks to be pretty gory, if only they didn't censor some of the scenes

The X/1999 film is pretty violent, a lot more so than the anime later on I think.

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni (my personal favourite [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/groups/view/Higurashi-no-Naku-Koro-ni]): Excels in build-ups to it's horrific scenes, even if they aren't that common.Darwins_Folly said:
Elfen Lied: Rampant ultraviolence by and towards minors. Probably the best fit to your description within retail anime.
Baccano!: Much explicit Brutality, if few deaths.
Berserk: Gory and gritty dark fantasy.
Highschool of the Dead: From what I've heard of it.
Gantz: From what I've heard of it. Might even rival Elfen Lied.
If you're looking for truly messed up Anime though, I'm not sure the mainstream retail (i.e. known outside very specific subgroups) scene is where to look. You'll probably have to go much deeper underground than The Escapist to find the most ultraviolent stuff Anime has to offer. Not sure I'd recommend that though, as the Anime mentioned here are plenty brutal for most tastes, and some already border on disturbing.
I really didn't like the Umineko anime and I had high hopes for it after reading the first 4 episodes of the VN. If you want to experience Umineko you have to read the VN for the full effect.Sacman said:
Violent animes, well Mobile Suit Victory Gundam was done when "Kill Em All" Tomino was depressed which led to a lot of main character deaths. Space Runaway Ideon which probably holds one of the highest body counts in anime. Both are pretty messed up in "Kill Em All" fashion.
Claymore, though while a bit tame, is basically just about every extremity possible flying off behind a stream of blood, and it has a good story. Check that out.
Respec for all the people suggesting Gantz, i would personally recommend reading the manga rather than the anime on that one, not to say that the anime is bad cause it rocks, its just really frustrating how the anime is to the letter faithfull up until the last few episodes and then does this whole bullshit non-ending that i wont detail due to possible spoilers for those who havent seen it, when they should have waited for the manga to progress enough for a new series.
If you want to see the most ultraviolent fucked up shit ever then look for:
GENOCYBER
its a bit old school, part of the old cyberpunk collection along with cybercityedo and AD Police, but hands down the most disgustingly brutal ultraviolent anime ive ever seen.

Everyone's already said Higurashi and Elfen Lied because those are the two really good and obvious ones but humor me here because you probably won't believe me at first.
The show is called "Rainbow". Yeah. Sounds not especially violent right? Its about a bunch of kids in the 50's surviving prison. Sadistic guards and inmates make this a very misleading title to give to the series.
Still ongoing however.
