The Exorcist is my favorite horror movie and I've seen it over and over again. And have the limited edition DVD. The vomit scene makes me cringe everytime.

It was split pea soup. I love split pea soup...but damn.

I just saw Quarantine last night. I liked it. The night vision scene at the end made me cringe. And I don't scare or gross out easily.

Battle Royale is one messed up book/movie/manga.
Clockwork orange and the rape scene from Irreversible. :shudder:

that rape scene made me cry. i'm a really big fan of old horror movies but i wouldn't even consider that a horror movie in the traditional sense.

a remake of that movie is just wholly unnecessary. i generally hate remakes because they try to get all glitzy and effects oriented. this particular movie was so horrifying because of its low budget and because they didn't "separate" you from the violence and brutality of that rape scene. it was real. it SHOULD make you cringe and want to look away. i just feel that by remaking it they can separate the viewer from the reality of that scene with effects and make and make it look like rape is cool. it only serves to show yet more disturbing, sexualized violence to another generation...

I'm glad you typed that because I had a soapbox about remakes.

90%+ of horror movies are remakes and mostly unnecessary remakes. I want writers and directors to get their creative juices flowing and give us some NEW, good stuff.

I hate gore...that is the one thing that ruins a movie for me. Saw movies = waste of my time even though the story line was good.

anyone seen Black Hawk Down? the guy had an RPG hanging out his side...that whole movie made me queasy, so did Saving Private Ryan...

Hannibal, the dinner scene... the skull.. I can't even describe it! But, that moment that you realize what's for dinner... ack.

In a nutshell (spoilers)












It's about 2 girls being raped and killed by escaped convicts. The escaped convicts then went to a house, who happen to be owned the parents of one of the girls. The parents find out these convicts raped and killed their daughter and went on a killing spree on the convicts. See the 70 version, very powerful, very raw. Does not gloss over the rape scene and you feel sick to your stomach watching it. It's Wes Craven's early movies.

How about the outhouse scene in Slumdog Millionaire....ack, ack...excuse me while I go vomit!

It's hard to even read some of these posts because I'm reliving the terrible movie scenes! The one that's getting me the most though is definitely the sidewalk scene in American History X. OUCH!

The sidewalk scene in American History X is the perfect example. Anytime I think about I have to thinking about something happy and pretty or go to cuteoverload.com because I can't even handle it. There are so many scenes that I can't handle but I still like gore in general. I think the gore that is less realistic is easier for me to watch, though. Any scene in which animals are abused or hurt is heart-wrenching to me. For some reason, it has more of an effect on me than abuse or hurt on people. Maybe because the animals have no idea why they are hurting or why people are being cruel to them. Of course this happens to children too, I can't explain it.

I've heard too many lectures on Lincoln this week. I was just thinking how really weird that movie would be if the main character's name was Mary Todd...

Cannot stress this enough: if you get the chance to see the 1970's version, PASS!!! I had nightmares for years over that movie, and probably will again tonight.
Men will cringe over one scene in particular; most will be grossed out over the whole thing. Even though the beginning is cheesy, it's horrifying.

I don't know how the guys on here feel, but my friend & I went to see Sin City with her guy friend and I thought he was going to throw up right there in the theater. There are quite a few scenes where this or that character's "family jewels" get pretty badly abused.

thank you for reminding me about Private Ryan.

he got grossed out over Sin City?

SIN


City???



fail.

Next, 300...yikes

Saving Private Ryan, when the Nazi pushes the knife through the American's throat.
Grindhouse: Planet Terror - there are a bunch of places in that movie that are just gross, but I find the beginning parts, when the sick people start coming into the hospital with puss-oozing sores, to be especially gross. When Josh Brolin squeezes one on a patient's tongue and it pops all over his face, I want to gag.
