    For me it has to the scene in American History x when the white guy makes the black guy put his mouth on the kerb and then stamps on his head. I almost cried first time I saw it. So what about you peeps?

    The rape scenes in the shawshank redemption... as hilarious as people seem to think men getting raped in prison and turned into someone's "bitch" is.

    Pretty much the whole of 'The Human Centipede'. I have no idea why I watched it in the first place. I am sure I have been scarred for life.

    Just remembered a French film I watched called 'Martyrs'. Sorry if I spoil it for anyone,but in the final scene,the heroine is beaten and skinned alive. Nice.

    I'm rarely disturbed by anything anymore.

    But when I first watched Reservoir Dogs at 13 with the ear-cutting scene I had nightmares for a week.

    Really? The movie is just a joke, it's incredibly hard to take it seriously at all.

    I gotta admit, Pan's Labyrinth, where he beats the guy's face in with a bottle. Saw? Nah. Captain Vidal? YES. D:
