[Disturbing Movie Moments: Can't Unsee *That*!]

 

Martyrs - Hands down the most horrible film I've ever seen. And yet, I'd also call parts of it brilliant, so I end up totally conflicted about the whole thing. One of the few films that I've found value in, and yet can't recommend to almost anyone. Flirts with being a "torture porn" film, though I personally distinguish between trash like Hostel, and this film, which again... there's something to this, even in the middle of the gore.

The movie is a three act meditation on torture and the limits of a person's ability to endure even the most horrible things. There are some extremely gory portions, but honestly the parts that affected me the most were the mundane tortures inflicted on the protagonist in the last third.

 

Agree completely. The whole second half of Martyrs is devastating. But its for a reason and its just horrible!

Oh, The Fly with Jeff Goldblum as the fly, dissolves this guys hand with stuff he spits out of his mouth-I felt like  I was going to faint.

 

Don't ever watch Cannibal Holocaust. Trust me, just don't. 

 

Speaking of Cannibal Holocaust, I was at a screening of The Green Inferno from Eli Roth. There is some extremely sick stuff in it

[Snowpiercer (2013): Post Apocalyptic Fun. And Trains.]

Does anyone know what Weinstein has cut from the american version? I heard rumours it was stuff featuring the two Korean characters. That would be disastrous though. Excellent film
