I'm sure you people will have me beat in record time - probably with something from Japan - but I thought this might be an interesting topic to talk about. What are the movies that offend the senses? Let's start with my three that I've seen despite my sheltered life (I still cry when Bambi's mother gets shot so I haven't gone out of my way to see any of these films):

Salo - Or, The 120 Days of Sodom (1975)

I think what I liked most about this movie is a guy eating another guy's rear end while he rapes a young woman. That's when I knew I was in for something special and heart-warming. It's also got poo poo-eating in it, almost constant rape, torture and other fun stuff the family can enjoy. I'm not sure I've seen the whole thing as this film was banned as Hell in Australia and I may well have seen a version that was cut to shreds just to get an R18+ rating.

Sweet Movie (1974)

The seventies were a fun experimental decade. I haven't seen this whole movie because I was watching it at my University library (it was set for a film course I was doing) when I got kicked out half-way through the movie for watching offensive material. I'm still amazed I landed a job at the library a year later. Anyway, I'll let the IMDB comments sum this one up:

quote:

The intercut story of two women: a nearly-mute beauty queen who descends into withdrawal and madness, and another who captains a ship laden with candy and sugar, luring men and boys aboard for sex, death, and revolutionary talk. The beauty queen passes from a wealthy husband whose honeymoon delight is to urinate on her (with a golden dick, mind you. Subtle imagery really makes this movie -Ed), to a muscular keeper who punches her, stows her in a suitcase, and ships her to Paris, to a lip-synching rock idol with whom she has a love spasm, to an Austrian commune complete with a banquet of vomit, urine, feces, chopped dildos, and wet nurses. By then she's in a fetal position, until everyone's rescued by reminders that "it's just a movie."


quote:

In the contest of the "most virgin" Miss Monde 1984, Miss Canada wins, and prize is the marriage with the milk industry tycoon with his fifty billion dollars fortune. In their honeymoon, Miss Canada "does not accept" the golden penis of her husband, and with the support of the black man Jeremiah Muscle, she runaways to Paris. There she meets a Latin singer, El Macho, they have an intercourse in Eiffel Tour and they get stuck together. She moves to a weird anarchic community and later she becomes an actress working in a chocolate advertisement. Meanwhile, the revolutionary, pedophile, and mad killer Anna Planeta makes candy in her boat while sailing through the canals of a city that seems to be Amsterdam. She meets the sailor Potemkin and they have a torrid affair. Meanwhile she uses her candies to seduce young boys and kill her lovers. In the middle of the story, it is presented what seem to be footages of a Nazi doctor and a slaughter in a war with many dead bodies.

Finally just to round it off...

Begotten (1990)

Gory more than anything, there's probably horror movies that have topped this easily but I don't watch torture porn. My accountant copied this for me at my request back in the 90s and decided to watch it for himself. He was freaked out at the visuals which were accompanied by the sounds of insects constantly buzzing. He refused to copy anything for me again, I had to get my own DVD burner horror of horrors.

So that's my conversation-starter. Whaddya got?

i haven't seen it and wont, but ive read the wikipedia summary. Anyway, psychological violence is way more disturbing than gore, so i recommend haneke's Amour if you want to feel bad.

Haneke's Funny Games was pretty frickin' bad (except he deliberately hosed it up with the rewind scene).
