I've seen I, IV, and V. On my first date with my current boyfriend we went to see Saw IV. I told him I was gonna pass out. He just kind of shrugged it off. The opening scene was an autopsy. About 10 seconds into the movie I got light-headed, I was sweating, and I had to put my head on his shoulder to keep from blacking out. He said after the movie, "I didn't think you were serious!" Not so funny at the time. Hysterical now.

Sidewalk scene in AHX was definitely awful.

Kill Bill when she slams some guy's head with a door repeatedly.

Basically anything with slicing/cutting or any violence to someone's head in any way, shape or form will pretty much make me cringe.. and pass out 95% of the time.

Agreed.

- Kill Bill 2 - When Uma ripped out Daryl Hannah's eye (not TOO bad, but still...)
- Urban Legend - When the dean is in the parking garage and has the back of his feet sliced
- Hostel - Again, when the blonde guy's feet are sliced. When the Japanese girl's eyes are burned. When one of the character's leg has a hole drilled into it.
- Hostel 2 - When Heather Matarazzo's (sp?) character is hanging and the woman is scratching her back with the blade (the actual cuts didn't bother me -- just the time when she was "warming her up"). The ending scene

The majority of Sweeney Todd (anything that involves him, um, shaving someone). The blood got to be a bit much in some parts. I love the musical, but I seriously had to shut my eyes during the scene where he is singing, and it shows him slitting like 5 people's throats. Ugh.

Pretty much the only reason that I saw that movie was because his first name is my last name.

Didn't really know what the whole thing was about. Found out quickly. Thankfully I rented it and didn't see it in the theater

Ugh sidewalk scene makes me cringe thinking about it.

Passion Of The Christ, when they are whipping him and his back is all cut and bloody.

Yeah, that entire movie made me cringe. Also, had the displeasure of watching some 70s movie called Cannibal Holocaust. Let's just say, CRINGE. Also saw another 70 movie called Last House in the Left or sumething like that. Rape scene was just brutal. And now I've herd that they're going to remake it.

Saw an ad for it last night. Didn't realize it was a remake, but I thought from just a trailer where you couldn't really tell what it was about that it looked kinda good.

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.

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.

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.
