What's the most disturbing thing you've ever seen in a movie?

The breast feeding scene from Takashi Miike's Visitor Q.

The entire 91 minutes of the M. Night Shyamalan "The Happening". After seeing it in the theaters I was extremely disturbed that I wasted $7.50 of my money to see that steaming pile of %^&*!

I don't want to say a word here. mahalo.com/answers/european-history/do-y....

I think it was in Step Brothers and Will Ferrell was playing the drums with his jubblies.

The most disturbing thing I've ever seen in a movie would be the entire Cannibal Holocaust movie. This movie has everything from brutal rape scenes, people being burned alive, people being impaled, and even real footage of animals being dismembered. The wikipedia page for it has this info: "Cannibal Holocaust is a well known exploitation film because of the controversy following its release.

After premiering in Italy, the film was seized by a local magistrate, and Deodato was arrested on obscenity charges. He was later accused of making a snuff film due to rumors which claimed that certain actors were killed on camera. Although Deodato was later cleared of these charges, the film was banned in Italy, the UK, Australia, and several other countries due to its graphic depiction of gore, sexual violence, and the inclusion of six genuine animal deaths" It's not for the squeamish, but anyone who gets a kick out of overly gory horror movies will probably enjoy it.

This may seem like a strange answer, because of the many things in many movies that a lot of people would consider worse or more disturbing. However, due to the matter-of-fact way it was portrayed, something about this really got me. I'm sorry if I can't remember some details exactly, but this was fifteen years ago and the experience has still stuck with me.

When I was a teenager a movie came on one evening and I had nothing to do, so I began to watch. Something just got to me about the way it was presented. It was a black comedy, which in itself is pretty disturbing.

But at the time, I didn't know what I was watching - it just appeared on TV and I started watching to see what the movie was about. A rather strange young teenage boy had developed an obsession with poisons and the idea of poisoning people. After a while, he felt the need to act on his obsession.

Watching this weird kid just become intrigued, excited, obsessed, and thrilled by systematically poisoning the people in his family and those around him was just.... gross. In the movie, the character kept detailed, long-term records in notebooks, about who was receiving what poison and what kind of effects they were having over time. The dark excitement of this kid, while his perplexed family tried to figure out what on earth was wrong and why different people around them (and including them) were experiencing such ill health, just made me sick.As soon as he was finished with one person, for whatever reason and whatever outcome came about, I'd watch him move on to someone else, and see his mind working in the most disgusting, weird way.

You could see what he was thinking. I think to a point in the movie, this strange character had only been experimenting with using his "talent" to make people sick, and watch the effects of what he did. Now after a while, his stepmother was in need of a certain medicine every day, (I can't remember if this was a prescription to try to deal with an effect of a previous poisoning)... and he at this point decided to take this opportunity as a new, interesting, systematic way of poisoning someone.

He graphed her decline in great detail. I wondered what was going to come of this - as I remember, they had a reasonable relationship and there was no hatred between them or anything. I felt particularly gross as the normally unemotional, "get on with it", working-class British father began to cry, lamenting that "She's never been ill in her life, you know.... Strong as an ox, that woman!

" The comedic, kind of light tone of the movie just really bothered me in terms of the events. I wondered, "Is he REALLY going to kill someone? S parents will probably just find out and he'll get in big trouble, and it'll be hilarious.

" When the next frame came on and it was a coffin and a funeral, with no stepmother in sight, it just made me feel really sick and have to stop watching. Now that you've shared my experience of "What the heck IS this?" and the "OH MY GOD. HE ACTUALLY KILLED HER.

"... I can share with you that I later found out that the movie was The Young Poisoner's Handbook, an elaborated, dramatized look at the life of Graham Young, a real-life murderer by poison, who was clearly obsessed with his craft. Another time I was really disturbed was the scene in Schindler's List where the main baddie just decided to use an unsuspecting woman walking below him in the concentration camp as target practice, and shot her dead just like that, on a whim. I also couldn't watch past this point.

I sometimes wonder whether what is happening is the more disturbing, or the way it's presented... I think the matter-of-factness, and insignificance to the killer of the taking of these lives in these two scenes, was a big part of what got me.

I usually am not disturbed by movies at all, torture and gore is played out and not shocking, and it seems like I have a pretty high tolerance to obscence things. I did get deeply disturbed by the art film "The Anti Christ" with William DaFoe. The movie is shockingly sexually graphic, including full male nudity, and has a climax that made my stomach churn.

Altogether I liked the movie for the amount of emotions it conveyed, not that I felt good about the things I saw, its just hard for me to be made uncomfortable or scared from a movie.

Sometimes, if I am thinking something deeply, I can see some different view in my eyes like, a virus lying in one, who is very close to me.... I am really disturbed in finding that who is the one and what is the problem with him...

The scene in a movie that gave me the worst chill was in American story X where Edward Norton curbed this guy. He made someone bite the curb and stepped on the back of his head.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
