Most shocking scene you saw in a movie
 
One which left your jaw dropped on the floor and staring unblinking at your TV/theater screen. And a sledgehammer to your thoughts later.


(POSSIBLE SPOILERS AHEAD)


The brutal 30-minute rape scene of I Spit On Your Grave?

Equally brutal rape from Irreversible?

The extreme torture sequences from Salo?

The disembowellments from Guinea Pig series?

Girl impaled in Cannibal Holocaust?

The "hammer" scene in TCM?

"Scissors" in Inside?

Lawnmower massacre in Dead Alive?

End sequences of Requiem For A Dream?

Revelation and realisation of the "incest" in Oldboy?


Which one was it? Or was there more than one? Let's hear em.

The scene in Mordum with Maggot (?) and the little girl in the bathtub left me feeling pretty twisted afterwards.

Thanks for the spoiler on Oldboy.....

There was a scene in City of God (2002) where the Local drug lord Lil' Z went to exacts revenge on a gang of 9 and 10 year olds and forcing one of his own kid soldiers, to choose a kid from that little gang & kill. Faced with death, one of the kids starts crying and later on.. Lil' Z shoots on the kid's foot!! Truly...this is a scene that I think literally more horrifying and shocking than any gruesome or torture scenes of horror cinema in recent times.

No real spoilers here. The spinning overhead camera scene in Calvaire was a symphony of brutality. The brutality in the beginning of Irreversible was pretty freaking core as well. Nice list, by the way.

The wine bottle face demolishing death in Pan's Labyrinth. Pretty much everything listed so far was to be expected given the types of movies involved. But that scene in Pan's Labyrinth came pretty much out of nowhere.

The curb-stomp scene in American History X... ugh... just thinking about the sound of that dude's teeth on the cement makes my skin crawl.

Not the most shocking, but the most recent one was the end of the Mist. Especially the reaction of the crowd in the theatre. Just a few scenes earlier everyone was cheering the death of Mrs. Carmody, and after the final scene were walking out silent and disturbed. I of course had a big smile on my face.
Loved that ending.

Why would someone make a gif of that? I bet some Nazi fuckwit jacks off to that all day.

The scene or the fact you jerked off to it? Hardy-har-har.

That sounded funnier in my head.

I gotta go seconds on the face smashing scene in Pan's Labyrinth. It looked fake, but still disturbed the hell out of me. That whole movie depressed me for days.

That scene is actually delightful when compared to the face-smashing scene in Irreversible.

Shudder...

Not the most shocking but one that comes to mind is the staple gun in The Devils Rejects

SodaGirl 11-23-2009 07:49 PM

Hitman mentioned the end of The Mist but didn't call it the most shocking... Well, I think I will call it my most shocking. I'm rarely caught off guard, but this movie left my jaw dropped and I love it for that!
