I'm gonna say: Requiem for a Dream
-
Bruh i watched that movie just because the soundtrack was everywhere and i wanted to know what is origin was. Well done but one of the most disturbing and sad movies ill never watch again.
-
Yes, I was thinking Requiem for a Dream or The Fine Art of Love
edit: Pi is another one from Aronofsky that's fucked up
-
You don't like ass to ass?
-
Great movie, very well done... But it's disturbing as fuck.
-
-
Grave of the Fireflies
It is the greatest movie that I will never, ever, watch again.
-
It was originally screened with My Neighbor Totoro…..
Btw I agree. It’s an absolutely devastatingly beautiful movie.
-
I'm usually not a particularly emotional guy but damn that movie messed me up for a while.
-
That is a heavy movie.
-
Reminds me of the movie "Nobody knows", also from a real story, also Japanese.
Whatsoever, anything relating to kids' suffering is...it's hard.
-
-
Event Horizon
-
Yea there's something to this movie, even though it's kinda b-grade sci-fi horror. The idea and its presentation has something can get under your skin ... including "that scene" (if you know you know).
I watched it as fairly young kid, at home alone, with most lights off (never being really bothered by horror), and no horror movie has troubled me more than that as I fell asleep thinking about if "that place" actually exists.
-
The movie has an interesting story about how so much was cut or couldn't even be filmed and the editing ended up all over the place, the movie ist barely coherent at times. But the feeling I got just thinking about that place was captivating nonetheless, great movie. Captures the vastness and loneliness of space well imo
-
-
Man that's weak sauce
-
-
This may be a basic film-bro™ answer, but Oldboy is a good baseline for "kinda fucked up" but also "really really good". It's even better on the second viewing. I even recommend watching Spike Lee's misguided remake, because it makes you seriously appreciate the artistry behind what Park Chan-Wook was doing.
-
Hardcore Henry.
It's an easy answer. It's a very pulpy, violent, action film shot entirely in a real time first person vantage. A guy gets experimented on, escapes from the mad scientist, then goes on a 90 min video game quest to save his kidnapped wife. It's all explosions and train fights. It's the kind of thing you worry that people will respect you less for having enjoyed, but it's honestly an outstanding use of cinema and very fun.
-
Lovely movie. It's done so well, I'm surprised nobody else attempted it.
-
If you like cheesy b horror and practical effect demo there is one called Hotel Inferno that is first person continual shot similar to Hardcore Henry but it can be a bit rough at times. The English dubbing isn't great for example. At times the practical effects almost feels like the finisher kills from Doom 2016.
-
-
Can't wait to watch this, thanks for the info 🙏
-
-
Kids
Very good, but very fucked up. Hit close to home in the lifestyle I lived as a teenager, just luck that things didn't end up like they did in the movie.
-
I downloaded this one to watch on a long plane ride recently and I guess I forgot what all was involved with it. It did not play for more than the intro credits before I was fumbling to close the app.
-
-
Midsommar…fucked up but a nearly perfect horror flic
-
What do you mean, this is how us Swedes celebrate the summer solstice each year 🤔
-
Agreed lol. Finally had the heart to watch it last weekend (after having known it was by A24 films). Suffice it to say, it fucked me up at different parts of the film. Amazing juxtaposition between cult/psychological horror and colorful, vibrant scenery. Great film, but probably won't watch it again.
Have heard a lot about Hereditary too, but not sure if I have enough courage to watch yet.
-
-
"Requiem for a Dream." It's a great movie to watch once. I loved it, never have any interest in watching it again, and saw the book and thought, "Oh I liked that movie I'll grab the book." I started reading, and the first scene (as in the movie) is the junkie is at his mom's place trying to steal her TV to sell to buy drugs, and she's begging him not to because she wants him to get help, and he finds she's chained the TV up so he can't steal it as he's done before, and he gets really mad at her because she's chained the TV up so he can't steal it.
I thought, "Oh, right," and put the book down immediately. I have no interest in picking it up and reading the rest of it.
-
I can relate. Will never watch that great movie again.
-
I still didn't finish it... But mostly because it's boring and weird to be honest, not as much fucked up. In fact I guess I just don't get it. It's like... Trainspotting meets Donnie Darko? Both of those I like but this one doesn't vibe with me.
-
-
Natural Born Killers. Though it really depends on threshold. Pulp Fiction is a better film imo, and some people would consider it "fucked up". But I don't really.
-
Pulp Fiction is one of my favorite movies of all time, I can rewatch it at any moment
Overall it's not really fucked up, it's not THAT crazy of a story, there are just some fucked up parts.
-
I worked at a movie theater in high school in the 90’s, all the older employees were huge movie nerds. I asked them what the greatest movie of all time was. Got diff answers but pulp fiction and fight club were two common answers. Watched both of them and they still hold up for me to this day.
IMO Tarantino will never top Pulp Fiction. As good as his other movies are, they just don’t even come close to the magic of Pulp Fiction. And maybe that’s my nostalgia speaking but I’ll bet if I sat down I could make an objective argument if I tried. His other movies sort of drag in places but PF keeps the viewer locked in with seamless, brilliant editing. By the time it gets to the gold watch monologue you’re just riveted. The last time I watched it and it got to that scene I was like oh right, this is easily a top 5 movie for me still.

Pi by Darren Aronofsky
-
It freaked me out a little when the number 216 popped up. It used to be my home phone number.
-
Came here to mention "Pi", too.
-
But why did my clients list their money?!?
-
-
A russian War Film called "Come and See" Three hours of watching a young boy being mentally wrecked by the atrocities of War. Gruesom, fucked up but incredible Film
-
Just watched that a few weeks back. Took years to psyche myself up to watch it, due to it's notoriety. It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be, but it is NOT for the faint hearted. Truly a masterwork in acting and cinematography. The sound, in particular, was haunting and dissonant.
-
-
The ending to The Mist will follow me to my grave. Absolutely fucked up
-
Yeah an amazing movie and the ending is absolutely horrid just because it's completely fucked up.
-
Such a shame I can't find a 4k release
-
-
-
I don't watch a crazy amount of movies but I loved The Platform (2019). It's a horror movie and and a revolting, elegant metaphor for class inequality.
-
Another movie that essentially tells the same story in a different setting is Snowpiercer. Both movies are great imo.
-
-
A short stay in Switzerland. It's about an old lady who had a terminal illness and goes to Switzerland to end her life. It's incredibly depressing, there is a scene where she tries to suffocate herself with a plastic bag that I couldn't even watch
-
Basket Case (1982)
This movie is about twin brothers who try to find success in new york but one of the brothers is a murderous blob of flesh who lives in a basket.
-
That's a good one. First Joe Bob episode I ever watched was on that movie, fantastic
-
-
The Road.
Tough book. Tough movie.
-
Is that the post apocalypse one?
-
Yep
-
-
-
Grave of the Fireflies if you want to be depressed.
Nightcrawler if you want to be creeped out.
-
Gyllenhaal's performance was so disturbing.
-
-
Bridge to Terabithia
-
I've seen that when I was 9 years old. Didn't like it.
-
-
Enter the Void. That movie stayed with me for months.
-
Anything by Gasper Noe fits this thread. I've seen enough of his work to never watch that fucker again.
-
-
Primer
-
That movie messed with my head. And Upstream Color...insane.
Amazing.
-
-
Fight Club
Sorry, but that movie is fucked up. Awesome, but fucked up.
-
Honestly, the most fucked up part of the movie is all the young men watching who think Tyler is a hero and a role model.
Great movie. A little fucked up. Wanting to be Tyler Durden is more fucked up than the movie.
-
-
Jacob's Ladder
What a ride.
-
The Lighthouse
-
One of my favorite movies of all time just because of the psychological horror aspect
-
-
The Mist. It started off ok, but the ending was just brutal, and I'm here for it.
-
Deadgirl
Also I forgot the title... Vagina Dentata? Not good, more like silly.
-
Teeth sounds like the vagina dentata one - totally agree it’s not good but very silly!
-
That's the one.
-
-
Teeth is the one you're after.
-
-
Off the top of my head:
- Nocturnal Animals
- Mother!
- The Killing of a Sacred Deer
-
Yup, all 3 of those. Especially Mother!
Nocturnal Animals is an amazing movie but really difficult to digest.
Sacred Deer, as with most of Lanthemos' films is really really odd.
-
The Skin I Live in 2011 (Antonio Banderas)
The brief synopsis below gives nothing away about how this film is so messed up.
A brilliant plastic surgeon, haunted by past tragedies, creates a type of synthetic skin that withstands any kind of damage. His guinea pig: a mysterious and volatile woman who holds the key to his obsession.
Sorry to Bother You 2018
I defy anyone to guess where that movie is heading.
-
Man I watched "Sorry to bother you" with spoilers, but still was not able to guess those parts. Awesome film!
-
-
I see all your movies and I give you Oranus

Speak No Evil (2022)
-
"A Serbian Film"
Young and dumb I watched a movie suggested by 4chan, I still have flashbacks over 10 years later of 1 scene from the movie.
-
100%, it's not even a good story to go along with all that trauma.
-
-
I have never watched the full movie, but I think Eraserhead needs a mention.
-
Blue Velvet? Probably up there...
-
I lived in those apartments from 2005-2007. Had never heard of the movie until a neighbor friend said "hey check this out"...
-
-
I watched Funny Games in theaters in high school and it pissed me off so much. I literally shouted “fuck you” at a screen in a public theater. It wasn’t until much later that I realized that was the point.
I’ve been meaning to watch it again.
-
It's also entertaining and fun. Highly recommend
-
"Plague dogs" is the most depressing movie I have ever seen, I was in a funk for a few weeks after seeing it. In terms of conveying an emotion no other film has lived up to that movie for me.
I don't recommend it.
-
The Bad Batch was pretty fantastic, and those first few minutes especially are pretty fucked. With a cast containing Jason Momoa, Keanu Reeves, and a very sneaky Jim Carey, I'm honestly surprised it didn't get more attention than it did. Maybe it's the cannibalism.
Basically, the premise is that there's this big chunk of open desert around a town called Comfort out in the middle of a fenced off area in Texas where they dump criminals. It's got a very post-apocalyptic vibe. Highly recommended.
-
That one was lovely. Also, the amount of big names was surprising.
-
-
For the best fucked up movie as in THE MOST fucked up, for me it's Gummo.
-
Grave of the Fireflies
-
Can't go wrong with Riley Sterns. Faults and The Art of Self Defense are great wtf dark comedies.
-
Snowtown has been the one in my life which has really stuck with me particularly because it’s a true story. The murder scenes were so prolonged and graphic.
-
Cannibal Holocaust. That’s the most fucked up thing you’ll ever watch
-
The sequel is more wild.
-
Not for me, the first was enough
-
-
-
Freddy Got Fingered and Sucker Punch come to mind..
-
I think it was red letter media that did a whole thing about how Freddy got fingered was likely a middle finger from Tom green to the studio who paid him to make that movie.
I think it's this one.

13 Tzameri
-
El Topo
Thought it was a spaghetti western. Damn was I wrong.
-
I think the best one had to be that remake of a Kurosawa horror film called The Grudge with Sarah Michelle Gellar. That was the only horror movie to ever actually give me a true scare.
-
The Grudge is definitely not a Kurosawa film lol
-
Ach! You're correct. My memory failed me. I thought The Grudge was a remake of Ju-On and I forgot who directed Ju-On. I see that it is now a Netflix series. Might have to check it out. Ju-On

Martyrs (2008)!
Went in totally blind. That was a journey I won't forget soon!
-
Parasite, I was not ready for how upset that movie was gonna make me
-
-
A few picks:
- Braindead/Dead Alive
- Tokyo Gore Police
- Adam Chaplin
- Story of Ricky
- Body Melt
- Boxer's Omen
- Martyrs (2008)
- Pick something at random from Takashi Miike: Visitor Q? Ichi the Killer?
-
Going to second Martyrs. That was F-ed up
-
Romulus, My Father. Made me skip a semester exam, seriously.
-
No movie ever made me suffer as much as Climax by Gaspar Noé. I highly recommend it if you want to have a horrible time.
