most disgusting disturbing or just plain vile scene in a movie

[Andrew]

I have no time for random flame wars; nor posts that use the "f" word every other sentence.  We've been over this far too many times.

Now, I'd have to say that the most offensive movie I can think of is probably "Pink Flamingos."  Nothing like watching, ah, "it" pick up and eat dog crap.  (This was just one in a string of events.)

Movie violence very rarely does anything to me.  For some reason, fate has seen me at the scenes of a number of bloody car accidents, often alone and in the middle of the night.  Not everyone survived them, even with first aid.  It makes anything on the screen seem trivial.  You've heard it before, but let me reiterate to everyone: wear your seatbelt!  I've personally seen the difference it can make.

Sorry, but seeing obviously planned-out sections and eleborate death scenes just doesn't do it for me. And I HATE Blockbuster. They don't carry Troma.

I'll share an embarrassing little personal ditty with you (no, not that - get your minds out of the guttter, sheesh).

I am afraid of snails and slugs.  Silly phobia to have, ain't it?  But get me anywhere near those little slimey things and I will freak so bad I might hurst somebody.  Try to put one on me and my hair will probably go white whilst I soil myself. (I also warn my family, jokes involving the things are not in the least bit funny, unless seeing me reduced to a quivering, babbling, weeping moron is - then f you very much)  Probably rooted in a childhood thing.  Snails are the worst, so I can sit through the movie Slugs unfazed.

But Lucio Fulci's Aenigma, oh god.  That death by snail smothering gives me a creeping crawling case of the willies that sends me screeching from the room every time.  Nightmare city.

Also Ruggero Deodato's movie about the documentary film crew (Cannibal Holocaust?), the sight of animals getting tortured and killed for cheep thrills make me vomit (and no, I AM NOT a member, nor endorser, of PETA)

Yeah, it's the real stuff that gets me. At least Michael Moore had a point to including the rabbit scene in Roger & Me, but that didn't make it any easier to sit through. (I also winced at the nipple-piercing scene in Tromeo & Juliet, but on a much smaller scale).

[A.C. Snob]

Specifically, the singing colon, and of course, the semi-hardcore scene where Divine services "her" son.  I dare anyone to sit through that movie without saying "Oh my God" at least once.

The custard eating scene.  I had to stop the tape.  Urk...

hey i know of this real f***ed up scene in this Spanish film i saw "In A Glass Cage." it was of this real crazy young man and he does something like stabbing a little boy in the heart with a very long needle. that and every other scene in the film was really f***ucked up. Another was a French film i saw "I Stand Alone." There's a scene in that where this guy punches his pregnant wife in the stomach. Bad date film.

what about the not so gory, or disturbing but eerie reflecting skin? the little kid finds a dead fetus wrapped in newspaper in a barn and thinks it's his dead friend ,who was kindapped and probably molested by a bunch of greasers, who has come back as an angel and we have a seen where he's lying in his bed the only lighting is the moonlight coming from the side window and he's talking to the now rotting fetus in bed. man that was a f**ked (sorry andy) movie.

Either of scenes in Event Horizon in which a character gouges out his own eyes. The worse one was the video log, which shows the guy standing there holding them in his hand, speaking Latin. With such an essential and irreplaceble organ, one that is so fragile and vulnerable, it is very disturbing to watch, especially when the guy does that kind of damage to himself with his own hands.

Event Horizon really went overboard on the whole eyeless thing, as a cheap gimmick to make a lazy script seem more disturbing.

Theirs a scene in Max Hardcore's "The genital's daughter" where he is giving anal to this girl and she's practically crying, clearly not enjoying herself at all.  He's not particularly mean to her, it was just very disturbing, she was really young.

Ouffff... I don't know if you meant the more disgusting-but-yet-enjoyable scene or just plain disgusting and unnecesary.

Anyway, I have two that fit on the second cathegory:

1) ANY SCENE from Wes Craven's "Last house on the left". Never been able to actually finish the movie, and I don't think I actually want to.

2) A scene on David Lynch's "Twin Peaks: Fire walk with me" in which a man eats corn with his mouth open. I don't even know what the scene meant, i it meant anything at all, but it gave nausea for a few days everytime I was having lunch. The movie was bearable, though.

P.D.  In the first cathegory, I vote for the cannibalism flashbacks in "Event Horizon"
(somebody has mentioned them before) or Pazzi's death in "Hannibal". If killing has ever been an art, it is there.
