> [@thelurkinghorror](#): > > Hardly the grossest ever, but bad because it’s credible: the “worst toilet in Scotland” scene in Trainspotting. That was pretty bad, but I was also pretty grossed out by the scene later in the movie: after a night of blackout drinking, Spud has completely shit the bed at his girlfriend’s house and is trying to discreetly sneak the soiled sheets to the laundry, but the mother insists on taking them herself. A tug-of-war ensues, and together they inadvertently fling shit all over everyone in the kitchen. In “The Running Man,” there is a scene where Schwarzenegger receives an “interphalangic injection:” a long needle is inserted between and parallel to his fingers, appearing to penetrate his palm to somewhere near his wrist. Just about barfed in the theatre watching that one. Used to watch “Deadliest Catch” on TV. At the start of each season, someone on the crew of the Northwestern would bite the head off of a herring. Not uncommon for them to throw up immediately afterwards. I saw this once or twice and then just started fast-forwarding through it during subsequent seasons; too gross to watch. ---

Not a movie, but my brother used to tell a loooong shaggy-dog story about a kid and a runner of snot that–to this day–makes me want to… Excuse me. ---

I have a history with this sort of thing. The first time I remember being so nauseated by something that I nearly left the theater was during Cronenberg’s **The Fly**. It was a combination of the fingernails coming off and the vomiting green slime on stuff to eat it. In my defense, I was like 13 at the time. Since then, I’ve become kind of an extremeophile. I seek out and watch the gnarliest movies I can find to check my endurance. Which means, I have a drawer of DVDs I can’t really show anyone, or they’ll just flee while yelling, “What the F\*$# is WRONG with you?!?!!” So, yeah. So I’m limiting myself here to the fictional stuff, because there’s plenty of godawful reality out there if you search for it, and it’s not fair to quantify actual human misery the way we’re doing here. I’ve seen the **Guinea Pig** movies, and they’re certainly realistic and gross, but they get increasingly bizarre and boring as the series goes on. **Audition** is a good movie for an introduction to what an extreme movie is like. It contains stuff most people haven’t seen, but it’s coherent. There’s a movie in my drawer called **Slaughtered Vomit Dolls** that is certainly nauseating, but it’s barely a movie, so I don’t think that counts. Loads of vomiting and a surprising amount of pretentiousness. It’s out there if that’s your thing. **Thanatomorphose** : not a great movie, but great special effects. Essentially, a woman starts to decompose while she’s alive. Check out the trailer. So, in the end, what’s my top repulsive movie? Probably one called **August Underground Mordum**. It’s a barely-coherent found-footage style movie that follows three psychopaths (two male, one female) as they torture and murder people. Absolute insanity, and it’s hard to pick which moment is the worst. I’ve been hearing about a movie called **The Gateway Meat** , but I haven’t found a good copy, just a glimpse here and there. Anyone, anyone? ---

The last 10 minutes or so of the _Vikings_ episode “Blood Eagle,” in which Ragnar gives Jarl Borg a truly horrific death. You don’t even see what he’s doing, but you hear about it earlier, so your imagination does the rest of the dirty work for you. Also, the actor playing Jarl Borg expresses the brutality very well without making a sound. ---

I thought of one that would qualify. _Homicide Hunter_ - great show in which a highly successful homicide detective recounts how he solved real-life homicides. Older man is found dead near a warehouse, no wounds anywhere on his body, blood on his face, it’s not clear what caused the death. His eyelids don’t look right. Investigator opens up eyelids and finds… no eyeballs. His mouth doesn’t look right. Investigator opens up mouth and finds… eyeballs. One perfectly blue, round eyeball staring out from between his lips. Everybody on scene is freaked right the fuck out. It turns out this was done by a woman drinking with him. He got handsy and sexually aggressive and she literally gouged out his eyeballs with her fingers and stuffed them down his throat. Cause of death was asphyxiation, obstructed airway. The poor bastard choked to death on his own eyeballs. This actually happened. Can you imagine? Turned my stomach. > [@Shagnasty](#): > > The ISIS “documentary” where they put the Jordanian pilot in a cage and burned him to death. It is even more disturbing than the beheading videos to me and I had a coworker get legitimately pissed at me after I suggested he watch hit even after I warned him. I can take almost anything fake but this one was real. Someone (who is neither trollish nor without compassion, so I found her choice inexplicable) posted these pictures \*on their fucking Facebook wall. \* This happens to be one of my greatest fears. I lost a year’s worth of sleep. I’m not even exaggerating. I began to have nightly panic attacks about being burned alive. I imagined being that man in prison knowing that I was going to be burned alive, anticipating, dreading, shaking, begging for a quicker death. I imagined every detail of the burning right down to my own exploding, melting eyeballs. It was godawful. I was so desperate I started doing self-directed exposure therapy, intentionally reliving every detail over and over in order to reduce the anxiety. The results were mixed, and then just as suddenly, the obsession vanished. Which isn’t to say I don’t think about burning alive every time I see a flame. But I don’t obsess. ---

> [@ivylass](#): > > This reminds me of something I saw in a documentary about Jodie Foster. After the rape scene on the pinball machine in _The Accused_ the male actors were so upset Jodie went around and comforted them. They couldn’t eat, they couldn’t talk, they could barely function. Does anyone here remember the TV movie “The Burning Bed”, which starred Farrah Fawcett as an abused wife who set fire to the bed with her drunken husband passed out in it? While they were shooting, the actor who played her husband accidentally hit Farrah, and he reacted in a similar manner. ---

I have a collection of old medical books, and some of them have some really shocking pictures in them. Most of them are shocking because they’re pictures of things doctors probably wouldn’t even see in the Third World nowadays, but there’s a 1908 gynecology textbook that includes a pencil drawing of an autopsy photograph of the perineal area of an 8-month-old girl who had been raped, which was also why the baby died. Unfortunately, that happens nowadays too. ---
