I apologise if this topic seems redundant, or done before, but what movies have you seen that absolutely HURT? A few of my choices would be:
Flesh Eating Mothers
Scream (1981)
The Last Slumber Party
Blood Lake
Garden Of The Dead

I'll think of some more later....

Movies that caused physical pain to watch? Miss Congeniality comes to mind.

That's funny, Flick - I actually rather liked that film.  I do remember one time, years ago, my wife and I were staying at a motel 6, and they had a movie with Gene Hackman - I think it was called FULL MOON OVER BLUE WATER or something like that.  It was painfully bad - we were both looking at each other throughout, shaking our heads at the bad dialogue and utter lack of plot.

The Last Airbender
Zombie Strippers

There's probably a lot more but nothing comes to mind...

The most suffering I've ever done in a movie theater is when I went to see DUNE.  I was bored senseless and my ass was killing me sitting in those uncomfortable theater seats they had back then.  I kept thinking to myself, "When the hell is this movie gonna end?"  It just went on and on pointlessly.

I remember one: Gomorra. It doesn't look like a bad movie but I saw it when I was 15, and it was painfully boring.

Baby Geniuses & Batman and Robin  :hatred: :hatred: :hatred:

This! Can't believe I forgot about it.

Drag Me To Hell - last year. saw it in the cinema (mid-day screening) with a hangover still lurking from the night before and every scream/shock type moment pounded my head in a bit lol, it was pretty loud

The Last Airbender takes the cake for me in terms of theatrical viewing. It hurt even more since the show its based on is actually really good.

A movie that caused actual pain and not metaphorical?  The only experience I have with that was when I watched The Piano.  A plot point/turning point in the romantic drama gave me a headache as I tried to fully comprend what I was witnessing.

Watching House of 1000 Corpses at the show while trying to break-up with a girl I didnt like... (it's an odd/long story.)

I was really happy that I didnt like 1000 Corpses and she did, it made the break-up so much easier for me... :)

Larry Buchanan's "It's Alive"
The Wizard of Mars
The "Galaxy of Terror" Box set by the Polonia Brothers (Talk about deceptive advertising)
M*A*S*H* (to call it juvenile is too polite)

I'm still bitter about Starsky and Hutch

Super Babies 2 and Xanadu

Movies that actually, physically hurt?

Hulk (2003)
Popeye
Kill Bill
King Kong (2005 version)

I know I say this in most threads of this nature, but has to be clerks 2. Diary of the Dead still upsets me too. You are better than that Romero.

Huh? Why?

The plot, the dialogue, the visuals, the music, the action, pretty much everything.  It's as if Quentin Tarantino decided to make a movie specifically for me to hate.  If so, he succeeded.

Oh, good God, thats gotta hurt.

 :buggedout:

I watched it a few months ago and it was a painfull experience.

you sir and much bravier then I am

Transformers 3, The Garbage Pail Kids Movie and Epic Movie come to mind.

I dive right in, head first into these movies, not expecting anything. Guess I was wrong. :lookingup:

Rachel Getting Married - run like hell from this piece of trash unless you enjoy on some level akward and dysfunctional crap. The movie is actually painful to watch not because production is bad but because the characters make you desperately wish for either Jason or a hoarde of undead ghouls to come to the rescue by killing off every single person starting with the main "protagonist".

About Schmidt - traditionally considered a "good" movie which I don't doubt but on some levels I watch movies to escape from everyday life not to just have it reflected back at me.  Watching the antics of a retired/widowed actuary is about as much fun as learning what an actuary is and what they do.

Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen
G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra
Envy

Mentioned these before and man were they stinkers to sit through, and bores too.

The Mist - was painful for its ending. My girlfriend hated it even more than I did.

I have to go with "Signs" or "The Village"....I am already angry just typing that.

It's funny how different people's tastes are - those are two movies that I really enjoyed, especially SIGNS.

I saw Xanadu mentioned a couple of times and have to agree. I mean, from a bad movie appreciation perspective, it's a must-see, but yes, it makes me cringe at points, especially the big finale scene.

I thought SIGNS was okay.  But THE VILLAGE made me want to throw things at the screen.

I'm still pretty traumatized because of Freddy Got Fingered.  :bluesad: :buggedout:

Agreed. The movie just lacks everything that made the first one so great. The dialogue was incredibly self referential and lame. Apparently Kevin Smith thinks that if he throws the word "cock" around a million times, he's doing something edgy and hip. f**k him for ruining one of my favorite comedies. BIG  :thumbdown:

I haven't seen Freddy Got Fingered, but I might watch it just to see just how bad it is. It can't get worse than Super Babies 2. (shudders)

I've also never seen this flick. I just can't seem to bring myself to do it.

Another one that is enormously painful is Bio-Dome. I've mentioned it before, but my wife is an extra in the big party scene. You can see her in her bikini a couple of times right at the front of a crowd, dancing with her arms in the air. Anytime I'm flipping through channels and see it I have to stop and see if it's near that scene.

Brilliantly put brother.  :cheers:

Just about any of the cheap imitations of the Abrahams/Zucker style of comedy. Wrongfully Accused or Silence of the Hams come to mind.

Bad comedy is always painful. It's easy to get an unintended laugh out of a serious movie that fails, but when it's trying like mad to make me laugh and doing a lousy job of it, I just can't find anything funny about that.

I just remembered my horrible experience with Mac and Me and Saw 3d. I got angrier and angrier as the films progressed.

I bought FGF when it first came out and thought it was funny, but now as i've gotten older its a pretty freaky movie. I'm really surprised how it even got made. They have limit of how much gore they can have in horror movie but I guess it's okay for Tom Green to abuse a horse/elephant ...where the F is peta when you need em'?  :thumbdown:

The Forest
Cannibal Ferox
Cannibal Holocaust
Freddy Vs. Jason
Thriller:A Cruel Picture-I actually liked Thriller but all the porno shots just took me by surprise though

I can't lock it down to one and these might not even be the worst of the worst but defaintly in contention. I didn't have to work to hard to put this list together.

X-Men III - Blasphemy
Transformers II - An Assault on my mind.
88 Minutes - What !?!.....okay.
Basic Insinct 2 - Terrible just teribble.
Dreamcatcher - The Name's backing this film, just look Kasdan, King, Goldman, Freeman, Jane, Lee, Sizemore, Seale and Howard. I only wish Cronenberg might have given this material a go.
Cold Creek Manor - I felt cheated.
Last House on Dead End Street - Deplorable
Another Stakeout - Hey, I liked the first one. What can I say. They got me.

One that I forgot to mention was Monster A go-go, I saw the MST3K version, but that didn't do justice.

I haven't actually seen the Eddie Murphy movie Norbit, but the trailer alone was enough to cause me terrible pain.

Norbit I wanted to see Ghost Rider with my buddy and it was sold out, got last minute tickets to Norbit. Spilled Coke on my good leather jacket, plus the place was fully packed with bored teenagers on a Friday night...had to strain my neck in the 3rd row.


Bad Teachers Walked out...it was so bloody horrendous and unfunny, only one good performance from the guy who plays Kevin Butler for SONY.

Gulliver's Travels  :hatred: Even for Jack Black, the movie was pretty low and stupefying.

Sorry to say ( actually I'm not ) I liked Freddy vs Jason.

I went to the theater to see Bean and Alien Resurrection, and had my head in my hands during much of the running time.  Ugh!
Same with Billy Madison.. terrible.
The Friday the 13th remake was one difficult ordeal, I gotta say.

Really, what is the hate with that movie? It reused concepts from the original F13 movies and barely deviated, except for how Jason gets his mask.

It's not nearly as a bad as TCM or NOES.

Honestly, the original wasn't that great either.  But I liked it better than the new one.

First time I saw Cloverfeild.  It wasn't because it was a bad movie, it was just that the shakey-cam gave me a massive headache.
