People Break Down The Most F**ked Up Movie Or TV Show They've Seen

As a film and television fan, aficionado and employee, I am sometimes dumbfounded by the insanity I see being made.

Like people actually paid money to make some of this?

I like horror and drama, but shock horror and drama are just over the top yuck.

But there is always an audience willing of you look hard enough.

Redditor Rockxzzy wanted to talk about the entertainment that has left us reeling.

They asked:

"What's the most f**ked up movie/tv show you've seen?"

I tend to skip even the mentions of over the top nonsense films and tv. So I have nothing to add. But I'll read along.

Twisted

"Round the Twist."

1BoiledCabbage

"I was just talking about this show with my sister to confirm it wasn't just some childhood fever dream. That creepy lemon tree fox with its glassy eyes has stuck with me ever since."

Henry

"An older movie called Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer. It’s an early role for Michael Rooker as Henry. It’s so freaking chilling. It’s not the most graphic or gory, but the violence is so casual. There is a family annihilation scene that I still can’t get out of my head and I haven’t seen it in 20 years. The fact that the main characters are watching their own crime on a camcorder they stole from the family is just somehow so much worse."

On VHS

I watched The Faces of Death on VHS when I was just a kid and some of that mess really scarred me for a long time."

"Traces of Death was another I watched a bunch of times. It had some really good Death Metal playing during the scenes and a narrator that would make really stupid jokes like 'Oh I bet that hurt' when a guy falls to his death."

“high tension”

"I watched a French film called Irreversible when I was doing a project on sub-sonic frequency and it's effect on human emotions. Even without the sub bass, that movie is f**ked up."

jbramm-audio

"So the tone thing is true? I remember reading somewhere back in the day they use a tone that can give people vertigo, but then I couldn't find that info again!"

Scampipants

"I got super high and went to watch a French horror movie called 'high tension' - was so glad when the girl I was with wanted to leave like 20 minutes in. Never watched the rest of it. And I’ve watched a ton of horror flicks since I was a little kid."

Tusk

"The movie where the guy gets kidnapped and turned into a walrus."

Strange_Phrase_784

"Yeah, that's Tusk, and it definitely is."

Rockxzzy

Who thinks up these stories? Like what kind of depraved mind... nevermind. I don't want to know.

Deep End

"Black Mirror: National Anthem. That show doesn’t even give you a chance to dip your foot into the pool, just launches you into the deep end on the very first episode."

ItStillIsntLupus

Poughkeepsie

"The Poughkeepsie Tapes It’s a Mockumentary about a serial killer who films all his murders on VHS tapes and you know it’s fake, but it feels too real and the thought the someone out there actually does this is what makes it so terrifying. If you have the chance please check it out."

GameBoy42069420

Shock Value

"The Human Centipede. Some things just don’t need to be seen."

2UnrequitedDreams

"I think the first movie was well done for the subject matter. The second one isn't really worth it, not even to watch it for curiosity shake. It was like they were only doing the movie to see how far they can push limits on violence and shock value. The story wasn't even that great. I never saw the 3rd one but heard it was pretty bad. Not sure about the gore or shock value but just downright stupid."

rpgmomma8404

Inappropriate

"Idk the name, but my dad made me watch it at an excessively inappropriate age. What I remember is POWs being kept in a cage 99% underwater. Sometimes they would dunk the cage just for fun. They would pull out POWs and have them play Russian roulette. One guy lost but the hole in his head didn't kill him. Yeah. Forget that."

100LittleButterflies

Evil Gross

devil satan GIFGiphy

"I Saw The Devil. It's a good film. It's just insanely violent and gory."

Lordof_NOTHING

Zach

"Dear Zachary."

Kitchen-Magnet

"Hands down one of my favorite documentaries, but it hit me like a dump truck full of cinder blocks. I couldn't stop sobbing. The grief and loss that family must feel is immeasurable. The way the story was told, however, was hauntingly beautiful."

idied4beauty

"I randomly thought about 'Dear Zachary' today, and my heart continues to break for the grandparents. I think of them from time to time and hope they’re doing okay."

Ewstefania

No thank you...

"Hereditary. There’s no sexual violence, just a lot of shocking things at once and really good acting. It got under my skin and I slept with a light on for three months. No thank you. I don’t need to see that again."

Kat82292

"Toni Collette f**king killed it in that movie."

aj_ramone

Samuel the Great

"For me, personally, it's Unthinkable. It's not as extreme as some of these other films listed here, but for me, it's Samuel L. Jackson's character, an interrogator for the US government. In his personal life, he appears to be a sane, normal, almost boring family man. But the things he does in service to the country are obscene. And it's how dispassionately he does them--only business, never personal--that is the real horror, even when it involves kids."

Devi1_May_Cry

Too Young

"Back in the 2000s when series were starting to become mainstream there was this show on cosmetic surgeons called nip tuck. It was pretty fu**ked up from the beginning but as seasons went on it reached depths of problematic and f**ked up stuff. It's probably not the most horrifying show but it was kind of casual in all of the problematic scenarios and situations. I was too young for this."

Erase It

"Couple for me: Irreversible for a couple of infamous moments, and Eraserhead, which made me feel strangely nauseous afterwards."

Itrieddamnit

"I definitely got that weird feeling after watching Eraserhead + Come and See. I kinda just sat and looked at my reflection in my laptop screen, trying to digest what I just watched."

kazoogod420

Viva France

"A French film called Inside. It's about a woman who's pregnant, the day before she's going to get induced for labor, and a crazy woman shows up at her house and tries with varying levels of success throughout the movie to cut the baby out of her. Extremely gory, very f**ked up, and actually a good story with some pretty interesting things that happen."

Beginning-Bed9364

With Dad

"1922. It was one of the last movies I watched with my Dad, who was a big movie buff. It was in between chemo and radiation. I hadn't even thought he had stayed awake through the whole thing because it had been a rough night before. But after it was over, my Dad looked at me and said 'What the hell was that!? That was f**ked from start to finish!'"

Kenaussian53

That Movie

"Requiem For a Dream is the first thing that came to mind."

UusiSisu

So here is a list "no thanks" movies and shows I'll be glad to skip.

U.S. special forces rescued the second crew member of an F-15 fighter jet shot down over Iran, according to three U.S. officials cited by Axios. The crew member, a weapons systems officer, was wounded after ejecting from the aircraft Friday but was able to walk and evaded capture in the mountains for more than a day.

MAGA Senator Gets Epic Reminder After He Shares Photo Of Himself On Vacation At Disney

Florida Republican Senator Rick Scott was called out for his hypocrisy after he proudly showed off a photo of himself at a Disney park amid TMZ's efforts to put members of Congress on blast for taking vacations during the partial government shutdown.

The shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is now the longest in history at more than 50 days and stretches on without an agreement between the House and the Senate now that lawmakers have left Washington for Easter break; neither chamber is set to return to Washington until the week of April 13.
