Cannibal Holocaust didn't bother me as a lot of other people. I thought the animal killings were essential to the themes of the film. I thought it was a dig at all the seedy Mondo flicks... but lets face it the film was being just as exploitative.
I found Franju's Blood of the Beasts documentary more disturbing than Cannibal Holocaust. But its a healthy dose of reality most people choose to ignore.
But back on topic... nothing is really to much for me to watch knowing that its staged/fiction. I enjoy getting disturbed every no and then nothing quite beats having a movie move you in that way. The eyeball scene (and overall tone & intentions) in The Devil's Experiment and the fucked up bathtub scene in Mordum two scenes that really fucked my shit up and I was questioning why I watch tiwisted films.
The headshot scene in the documentary Executions takes the cake for the most disturbing scene I've ever witenessed.
