Have any of you seen a movie that was so disgusting, disturbing or just plain f’ed up that you will never forget it? My vote goes to an obscure move from Hungary called “Taxedermia”. The plot is basically three barely connected shorts that follow three men from one family over three generations. From what appears to be WW2 to about the 1980s. The first man is a horny, perverted soldier who is living in a chicken coop/barn and is basically a slave to his commander and the women who live in the farmhouse. He masturbates multiple times. At one point he is playing with a candle and manages to ejaculate fire! Another time he dreams himself into a book and talks with a young girl in Victorian dress. He asks if she wants to see “the stars” and the scene ends with him in the barn, in a tub, in his long johns, dick in hand, shooting CGI cum into a CGI night sky, screaming, “I’m flying!”😕 He also get’s his dick pecked by a chicken and has sex with a tub full of meat. The next guy is a morbidly obese man who is some kind of eating champion. This one is basically eating contests, spar with rival, court girl, lose girl, get girl again and get girl pregnant. Interspersed with vomiting and eating. The last guy is a scrawny taxidermist who looks like a vampire. He takes care of his father (the eating champion) who now resembles Jabba the Hutt. This one is so f’ed up I can’t even describe it. Taxidermist gets a “job” from a doctor, dad makes him clean up after his obese cats, Jabba the Hutt dies and his son “works” on him before doing himself. ---

I once (not entirely voluntarily) watched a short film - more of a video clip, really - of a [Botfly](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Botfly) being removed from someone’s skull. Urg. ---

Not a movie, more of a short video clip but ‘3 guys 1 hammer’ about the Dnepropetrovsk maniacs killing someone was one of the most disturbing things I’ve seen. ---

It’s probably not the most disgusting, but it comes to mind because I just saw it and really, truly wish I hadn’t. Goodnight Mommy, a film that I thought would be a dark and clever horror picture that just devolved into torture porn by the end. ---

It’s a good movie, but the first time I watched _Battle Royale_ I had to stop watching a few scenes in. ---

Salo: 120 Days of Sodom There is a scene in Robert Altmans film The Long Goodbye that is so cruelly and randomly violent that it might be the most disturbing act of violence I have seen. Dont want to spoil what is otherwise an excellent film. ---

“The Grifters” has a pretty consistent low-level hum of ‘disturbing’, with blips of unpleasantness rising to the surface like trout pecking at waterbugs, and one mind-bogglingly burst of horror like a killer whale leaping up out of the ocean. ---

Deadgirl, two highschool kids find a female zombie in the basement of an old abandoned hospital (or mental institution, i forget), spend rest of movie raping her. The last ten minutes or so is closer to a regular zombie movie, but there was a whole lot of zombie rape for the rest of the movie. ---

I saw the film mentioned by the OP (Taxidermia) and found it odd. I believe there is a school of thought it is making a deep political point about Eastern European modern history. It reminded me of an Australian (I think) film called Bad Boy Bubby about an adult man who could have learning difficulties although equally could just be a victim of his upbringing. His upbringing is his (now) aged mother confines him to their windowless basement flat by telling him there has been a nuclear war. The mother uses Bubby for sex but then her estranged husband returns and the husband is the preferred sexual partner. Bubby becomes suspicious about the ‘deadly radiation’ keeping him in the flat and ventures out and explores the world. The film is a black comedy but I found it quite funny. Unlike Taxidermia which just seemed deliberately weird. TCMF-2L ---

Goodnight Mommy, a film that I thought would be a dark and clever horror picture that just devolved into torture porn by the end. I’m really bummed to hear this. I’ve been looking forward to seeing this movie just based on the premise. I’m surprised that it’s so graphic; it was Austria’s entry for the Best Foreign Picture Academy Award. ---

I’m surprised that it’s so graphic; it was Austria’s entry for the Best Foreign Picture Academy Award. I guess it might not be THAT graphic…I mean, I guess I’ve seen worse things on screen. Maybe it’s more the how? I don’t know. I know it has gotten good reviews, though a few folks also feel as I do. I’d see it and make up your mind…it may have been that it hit a nerve with me just because there are certain things I personally find upsetting. (Sorry to be so vague. Trying not to give away just what upset me!) ---

What I can think of right now is fairly mild. My family and I were watching television one evening, and Children of the Corn came on, or maybe one of its sequels, and it opened with children immediately killing lots of people in a diner or something. Blood, blood, and more blood. We’re were all like “Let’s not watch this” and changed the channel. A co-worker lent me Pulp Fiction, and I watched like a third of it, and I had this strong feeling that Tarantino was genuinely getting off on the violence. And everything I’ve read or seen about him has continued to give me that same impression. And then there were those like Lilya 4-ever, where I saw a third or a half, and knew where it was leading, and found that I wasn’t really up for experiencing that much more bleakness. But that’s not the same thing as the aforementioned simpleminded blood, blood, blood.
