What I mean is, a movie that you saw that left you like, "oh man, that movie was a whole new level of F#(@ed up!". What was the movie and tell us a little about it with no spoilers.

I remember watching Snuff for the first time. You know, the one with Nicholas Cage. Wow. I just remember walking out of the theater thinking, I need to pray or something.

The exorcist did the same thing to me.

Brazil (1986). I was young when I saw it and left the theater having no idea how the movie ended or what was going on for most of it. It was just a random series of unpleasant images.

Is that movie titled "8mm" in North America?

"Naked" by Mike Leigh always makes me want to take a shower. David Thewlis' performance is awe inspiring, but his character is one greasy mother. "Requiem for/of a Dream" is also pretty hard to take. Oh, and on the just toooooooooo awful to be believed theme, I would submit "I Spit on Your Grave" and "Very Bad Things"

It was titled '8mm' in all the western world.

I agree about 'Naked'. That film rips parts of you out.

'Baraka' should elicit some emotional response from those able.

Has anyone else had the misfortune to view "I Spit on Your Grave?"

The Passenger (Jack Nicholson) did that to me. Also Videodrome and Tetsuo.

I walked out of the theater after seeing Darren Aronofsky's Pi, thinking "What the hell did I just watch?!" but after a couple of days, I decided I kind of liked it. I love Brazil, but then again, I didn't see it until I was an adult.

A friend of mine just told me about a movie entitled Deadgirl. This looks to be one of the all time WTF movies. Not to be mistaken with The Dead Girl. Here is a link to it (shudders as he pastes the link...)

I'll be watching it manana.

Don't say I didn't warn you guys.

The odd Japanese sci-fi film, 'Parasite Eve'. Concept was really interesting, but there were just parts that made you go 'Well, wtf was that?'.

Hard movie to explain to friends as well. They just give you an odd look when you try to explain what's going on in each scene.

I have to admit, the new movie Orphen made me go Wtf as well .It just the whole answer to all the crazy things going on. I wouldn't have guessed what it was by a long shot.


Last one for now is one that I watched with my mom once dreary Sunday since nothing else was on. Terrible film called 'The Revenge of Pinocchio'. I think that just takes the top of bad films I've watched. Don't get me wrong, I like possessed dolls just as much as the next person, but it was just so...weird.

Gummo was probably one of the most disturbing movies I've ever seen. Dogville left me pretty disturbed as well, but I think that has more to do with my state of mind when I watched it.
