The part in Caligula when Caligula is fisting the guy, that's totally brutal.
Raw bacon is GREAT! It's like regular bacon, only faster, and it doesn't burn the roof of your mouth!

AVP Requiem was, for me, not a terribly enjoyable movie. Found most of it dull and rather nonsensical, but inoffensive. Then they just had to put the aliens in the maternity ward. I really could have done without seeing that.

That was the best bit of the film for me.
It was the first time i could actually see the monsters do something...all that horrid dark ,flashy light stuff...barely watchable film...
                                             

If God exists, why did he make me an atheist? Thats His first mistake.

Well yeah, I do have to agree that it was one of the few scenes lit well enough to show anything. :teddyr:

I believe it was the 3rd Hellraiser movie I had to stop playing in my VCR.

I can handle gore, but they took gore to another level that I didn't need to see.

The exploding frog in THE REFLECTING SKIN although that is one of the more memorable scenes.

Most of THE LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT and STRAW DOGS. Tough sloughing.

I didn't think the 3rd was as bad as the second.

Savage Vengeance...this movie had no redeeming qualities. lots of rape scenes with fully clothed victims. WHY CAMILLE!?! WHY!!??

Although it is not thankfully shown, Colin Farrell's comment about he and Bridget Moynihan going to the Smithsonian to see John Dillinger's penis in The Recruit was a little tooooo much information for me.  :buggedout: :buggedout:

Whichever Austin Powers movie had the 'coffee tasting' scene. That could have been left on the cutting room floor.
Frogs with their endless croaking, croaking, croaking in the night.

I have to agree with the Last House on the Left....that film has NO redeeming qualities for me whatsoever. 

The tongue cutting scene in Oldboy.....I love gore, but it was almost too much, for some bizarre reason.  Maybe I was still reeling from the previous revelation...

I have one that's a little different.  But there are several threads on the board right now about specific scenes in movies that were bad and mine fits into this one the best.

It's in the 2005 remake of King Kong.  Near the end, Kong escapes and rampages through the streets.  In order to calm him down Ann Darrow goes to Kong.  When she arrives, the movie just sort of stops for a moment.  Ann walks down the street, back lit in silohoute while heavenly music plays.  I guess it was to show she had an angelic nature or something, but I thought it was a little much.

It didn't ruin the movie for me, and really wasn't a WTF moment.  It was just sort of out of place, and could have been done better.

I know a lot of people also didn't like the scene where she and Kong played in the snow-but I really didn't mind it that much.
At least, that's what Gary Busey told me...

I really likes that bit.
It's kinda sad as everyone knows how it ends...
An underrated film King Kong (2005), it's much better than Transformers.

There is a scene in Michael Apted's Gorky Park which still makes me go  :buggedout: :buggedout: after all these years and I wish I hadn't seen it.

When Irina (Joanna Pacula) refuses to believe that her friend Valerya is dead (she thinks Valerya is free), the dogged Russian cop Arkady Renko pulls Valerya's reconstructed head out of a hatbox and shows it to Irina, causing her to scream and collapse on the floor.

Judging by her reaction, it's no wonder Ms Pacula was honoured with a Golden Globe nomination for that film.  :thumbup:

Watch that scene without sound and it is still damn scary.  :buggedout: :buggedout:
