Thane
02.24.12 | salo and cannibal holocaust are the two that left me with the worst feeling after watching them...haven't seen A Serbian Film yet, but seen some clips. need to see Irreversible |
Coast
02.24.12 | Irreversible is tough but from what I've read those other 3 are hard to stomach. |
Thane
02.24.12 | Salo wasn't as hard to watch as I had thought, when it comes to the, you know... only a couple scenes involving feces and stuff that were a bit much. I thought the overall feel of the film was much worse. its really dark |
Coast
02.24.12 | The dark and sadistic ones usually stick in the mind more than the all out gore fests. |
Thane
02.24.12 | very true. i'm very interested in seeing Shame though, i've heard some good things about it. and martyrs sucked imo :/ maybe thats a strong word. it wasn't all that good though haha. |

02.24.12 | Begotten is pretty intense at the beginning but then it gets boring. Cannibal Holocaust is just fucked. |
Thane
02.24.12 | yeah CH is fucked. must have been even more fucked if you saw it when it came out with all the rumors floating around about it. |
Coast
02.24.12 | Shame is really well made and the director leaves a lot for the viewer to work out themselves. It's about a sex addict and as more is revealed about his lifestyle the film gets more and more uncomfortable. The depressing aspect of his condition really hit me late in the film. Martyrs wasn't the best but still intense. What didn't work for you?
Haven't heard of Begotten. Does Cannibal Holocaust have scenes killing real animals? |

I think some animal killing were real, like the turtle. |
Thane
02.24.12 | martyrs started out being interesting, and it had a nice twist i guess, but it just got too ambitious for its own good. when they started skinning the girl and stuff with all this high tech equipment? idk. it was just a bit too much haha. the final scene was cool though.
yes they kill a turtle in cannibal holocaust. not cool. |

02.24.12 | Black Moon is the weirdest most fucked up movie i've seen. |
Coast
02.24.12 | Overall Martyrs gripped me but also left me with something not quite working about it.
Begotten - The film opens with a robed, profusely bleeding "God" disemboweling himself. (Haha I get the idea)
Harder to watch tortured animals than humans. |
Coast
02.24.12 | Not seen Black Moon. Great creepy, disturbing, weird films from the 70's still hold up today. |
