Spoiler-box it for us, please.
The call’s coming from inside the house!!!
If you check out the plot summary on Wikipedia, it does sound like a pretty dark ending. For a comedy, that is; it’s probably not in the same league with some of the gross-out fare listed here.
I have to say, I’ll probably check out the Taxidermia one listed by the OP. It sounds good.
“In the Company of Men” is a terrible first date movie but it’s really great. One of my top ten films ever.
Here it is: The Telephone - Wikipedia
Doesn’t sound all that terrible to me. Guess you had to be there, er, see it.
Yep, the whole movie being a delusion and stabbing someone sounds like the Disney movie of the week.
I saw it with my wife, but I’m lucky in that as we were talking about the film afterwards, she told me that I wasn’t anything like either of the men in the film.
What the hell happened to his career? Some really great films then terrible remakes of The Wicker Man and Death At A Funeral. His last films never appeared to even open as far as I can tell.
I think he’s been focusing more on his plays. He seems to identify more as a playwright anyway, and he’s had way more success on the stage than the screen.
Henry Portrait of a Serial Killer.
I was disturbed by the original Italian Job. Its a crime to push Mini Coopers off cliffs.
Send it my way.
If anybody ends up wanting to see Bad Lieutenant, make sure you view the uncut NC-17 version…
My standards are probably pretty low (I have no interest at all in ever seeing Salo or Serbian) but I wish I could un-see the Broken video by Nine Inch Nails.
I’ve seen nearly all the films mentioned here but not this one, so I watched it on YouTube last night. Yep, it wins.
For a much less visceral definition of disgusting/disturbing, I would pick Jesus Camp.
I wonder how many people have watched Caligula expecting to be aroused, hey it’s by Penthouse, but repulsed instead.
I told my mother I was renting Deliverance and she hinted that it got ugly, my guess is it ruined an evening out to the movie theater for my parents and their friends, but I didn’t foresee the “squeal like a pig” scene.
Since we’re heading into documentary territory, I haven’t seen “Jesus Camp”, but I have seen “Citizenfour” and “Dear Zachary”.
I knew nothing about “Dear Zachary” before I saw it, except that it had to do with an international custody dispute, and I’m glad I didn’t because of the pivotal event.
“Dear Zachary” I get, but what was so disturbing about Citizenfour?
Come and See is, I think, an astonishing film. It disturbs in a way that makes many other films - ones that intend to shock/disturb for that reaction alone - look painfully amateurish.
I’m not sure I’ll ever watch it again, but I’m glad (-ish, kinda) I’ve seen it.
*Jacob’s Ladder *really bothered me (still does).
As with many, The Thief, The Cook . . . and Whatever.
Well, this was a movie that disturbed me at age 5, but the memory of it is even worse now: “The Cube,” by Jim Henson of all people. The idea that you have no control over your own fate, in a universe indifferent to you, impressed me more deeply than any bloody monster could have.
X2 It is a great film, well written with a great cast at the top of their game, but I’ll never watch it again. I would not discourage anyone who hasn’t seen it from watching it though, one viewing will be enough.
