- Well, once I saw this thread, I knew I had to mention
- a few films that I know. Soooo, here they are:
-
- 1. MEN BEHIND THE SUN - incredibly depressing and graphic
- story about Japanese soldiers experimenting with
- chemical and biological warfare. I showed this to
- a couple of people who thought they could sit through
- this, and they wound up quitting because the scenes
- were so repulsive. Not that I blame them.
-
- 2. SALO, THE 120 DAYS OF SODOM - I saw this mentioned, but
- I thought I would also mention it. Pier Paolo
- Pasolini's study of fascism is still considered one
- film that can repulse almost anyone. Except yours
- truly, who found it a bit boring.
-
- 3. BLOODSUCKING FREAKS - Everybody else has mentioned it, so
- I'll just list it here.
-
- 4. CANNIBAL HOLOCAUST - The cannibal movie people love to hate.
-
- 5. UROTSUKI DOJI (aka WANDERING KID) - It may be only be
- animated, but it still is quite graphic, at least in
- part I. The story really kicks in at part II, and
- the tantric apocalyptic storyline is what reels in most
- fans of this series.
-
- 6. BAD TASTE - Not really repulsive, but good for laughs. One
- of my favorite horror comedies, and I always feel sorry
- for that poor sheep. :')
-
- 7. NEKROMANTIK - Although this may be the most overrated gore
- film ever made (at least IMHO, since I found it so
- utterly pathetic and boring), I'm listing it here at
- the request of a friend who thought it should be
- mentioned.
-
- 8. PINK FLAMIGOS - Yes, that movie with Divine eating Poodle
- Poop. So far, I'm the only one of my friends who could
- sit through it, and I could just barely stomach it.
- Not really gory, but really and truly gross. John
- Waters did a real job on this number.
-
- 9. IN THE REALM OF THE SENSES - A fascinating and intense film,
- and not really gory, but the final scene had some of
- my friends grossed out.
-
- 10. SCOOTER TRASH - The only porn film in this list, but it
- grossed me and my friends the first time, the second
- time and the third time around. The most idiotic
- and incompeten porn film ever made; you don't know
- whether to be offended by it or be amused by it.
-
- Well, there's my top-ten list of fiction films--although MEN
- BEHIND THE SUN is based on fact. Anyway, have a Merry
- Christmas and don't try to gross yourself out with all these
- films.
