The hobbling scene from "Misery" is a stomach turner. Also the curbing scene from "American History X" gets me a little sick every time I see it.

Mr. Hockstatter

In The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly, they come across a soldier they think is dead.  Turns out he's got a bullet in the stomach, and has just been laying there in excruciating pain for hours, trying not to move because it makes the pain worse.  That kind of stuff gets me.  Not just some special effect, but more a psychological thing.

In an episode of the X Files, there's somebody aimlessly walking down a road with blood dripping out of their eyes.  Somebody gave the person a labotomy by sticking s small knife through their eye socket and severing the part of the brain that connects the two halves.  That was yucky.

In Tom Clancy's book Without Remorse, somebody is tortured by putting them in a hyperbaric chamber, which pressurizes the air around them, and when the pressure is released it's as if the person ascended too quickly from a deep dive underwater, and gets the bends.  It's described in great and lengthy (hey, it's Tom Clancy) detail.  

Another favorite is in one of those Psycho movies, where Norman is calmly talking to his mother or somebody in the kitchen.  He asks her if she wants a grilled cheese sandwich, then whacks her over the back of the head with a shovel.  It's just so sudden and brutal.  Always makes me say "ouch".
