Anything by Atom Egoyan ("The Sweet Hereafter" is one of the most upsetting movies I've ever seen).

Naked Lunch
Begotten-oh man, if you've seen this......not everyone can make it through this first film by the Shadow of the Vampire filmmaker. (I ad that to sucker people into seeing it.....)
Elephant Man (often refered to as the best movie I'll never watch again. You have to be willing to feel bad for a really long time)
I'm blanking, I know there are more movies that I afterward thought 'that ain't right...'

Passion of the Christ

Disturbing, but for all the right reasons

Agree on Naked LUnch - crazy sheeyat

Crash


PeeWee's Big Adventure

The Exorcist- EEEEEEEEEEW!
Disney Movies....

that strap on knife thing *shudder*

oh yeah... Se7en!

that strap on knife thing *shudder*How do you pronounce that? Se-seven-en?

The entity (I think that's what it was called.... it disturbed me.)
Deadwood

For depressing try Gallipoli.
For stomach churning uncool violence try Hannibal.
For "Oh my God, I wasted two hours of my life watching this crappy movie that 'everyone else' said was good" try The Piano.

Donnie Darko
The Virgin Suicides

The two I can think of off the top of my head.

Where do I start.

A Clockwork Orange

The Battle of Algiers

Die Experiment (sp?)

The Passion of Christ (people actually thought it was historically accurate)

Crash

Shivers

Battle Royal.

Lost Highway

If...

Gangster No.1

Man bites Dog


That's what I was trying to think of, the strongest case of 'that ain't right' I've had after a film....damn that's disturbing.

Neal LeButte films.

Mayweather!

That movie is SOOOO disturbing...you have to have a really twisted mind to watch that film.

Ghosts Of The Civil Dead

1) A Cinderella Story with Hilary Duff.
2) Mona Lisa Smile
3) The new Pink Panther without Cato
4) Did Barney make a movie?
5) The quick and the dead.

:P

5) The quick and the dead.

:P

omg, it took me about a week to get over that cultural train wreck.

American History X is pretty disturbing.

Neal LeButte films.

Interestingly that film was allowed into Britain uncut because the censors thought that there would be little interest in a independent, black and white Belgian film.

Cannibal Holocaust.

Even with the rape scene? My understanding of whats allowed in Britain is that rape is a complete no-no. If there is a standard that small films are more relaxed than large films then that's actually a pretty kickass artistic enviroment, in an odd kind of way.

Cannot find anywhere that says it was banned/etc. over that scene. But many places say that the British version is the only English version not to be cut (for the aforesaid reason). iirc the rape scene was very explicit, but that British law (until recently i think) banned anything depicting actual penetration so it may have been allowed. I have been thinking of similar films, with rape scenes. The first one to spring to mind was a Clockwork Orange, but that was withdrawn by the director (kubrick) rather than banned or cut. Otherwise I don't know. With luck it might be on Film Four again soon, (in case you don't know Film4 tends to have a small introduction for these films which would explain it)

I also agree with "Reqiem for a Dream". Also "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" and "28 Days Later".

Cannibal Holocaust because of the genuine animal death.

Cannibal Holocaust because of the genuine animal death.

I have never seen it, what do you mean by genuine animal death? Is it only a few or is it a whole scale massacre (as suggested by the movie name)?

Titus with Anthony Hopkins... Seeing his daughter with no tongue and sticks for hands..that's creepy.

only a couple scenes good sir.

But how concentrated is the killing? A few I could handle, since I've seen it first hand, but it is loads then I reckon I would find it disturbing.

i dont think its that concentrated.

I'm surprised that no one has mentioned "Basie Moi". It's the only film I know of that they banned in Australia.

Try being forced to watch fatal attraction, 3 times in a row, when your only 8.. When the wind blows, again when i was 8, screwed me up for a while.

More recently, red dragon was actually quite disturbing for some reason.

---------------------------------

Completely unrelated, i dont think rape scenes are banned in the UK. I remember seeing straw dogs a little while back, and that was quite famous in the 70's, that had a rape scene in it.

Cannibal Holocaust because of the genuine animal death. I personally found the castration scene to be the most disgusting, but the real animal deaths were also very offensive, especially the turtle dissection scene.

the beheading of Berg, though as short as it was, deeply disturbed me. heck i couldn't make it past the 1st five seconds
