Most Difficult Movie to Watch?

[sabrinathecat]

Some movies try to be tough.
Some succeed.
Some fail.
Some only end up being crude or gross.
Some come off looking foolish or silly.


I just saw "Africa Addio". If there is a tougher movie to watch, I don't know what it is. It isn't bad, but very, very disturbing.
Anyone else seen it? Thoughts?

What is the most disturbing movie you've ever watched?

 

[Kramodlog]

A Serbian Film.

Irreversible.

Edit: Martyr.

That is all.

 

[Hand of Evil]

Misery messed with me

I tend not to watch "difficult" movies (seriously, where's the fun in not enjoying something?), but my wife can't watch Muriel's Wedding.

 

[Viking Bastard]

As much as I do enjoy a good trashy slasher flick--the gorier the better--I just cannot sit through torture porn (like the Saw movies).

Alive

Stomach couldn't handle it the first time I saw it.

The Cube - cuz it's bleepin' awful.
Requiem for a Dream - cuz it's srsly messed the bleep up. So much better than the book, too, and that's a rare thing indeed.

Really? I kept falling asleep during Requiem, except for a few scenes with Jennifer Connelley.

 

[Steel Steed]

Open Water (2003). It's not that sick, just overly exausting and sad.

Yeah, it's pretty tough to watch, IMO. I also happened to see it during an odd time in my life which probably made it have more of an impact. Too bad the book was so preachy.
