Straw Dogs was done by Sam Peckinpah.

Dude, next time that reality ring comes around you might just think about grabbing it.

'Tis odd; he doesn't look that out of touch.

...assuming that's the music legend himself.

Hey? Where'd it go? Remember the "preperation" scene just before that hot date in "Something About Mary"? Most pleasently disturbing indeed.;)

bizarre moments
 

Bizarre moments:

--Pulp Fiction: the rape scene, the adrenaline shot

*Oh hell yeah! Don't remember the rape scene (guess I'll get to revisit it while watching our DVD copy of it), but that adrenaline shot...*SHIVERS*. Another bizarre rape scene was in "What's Love Got To Do With It", because it was so quick and extremely violent!

--Misery: where Kathy Bates destroys James Caan's ankles

*Yeah, that *was* pretty fucked up.

--It's not a movie, but the first episode of "ER" this season, where Paul McCrane's arm gets whacked off by the propeller blade.

*ARGH! That was such a shocker (since I hadn't read up on the spoilers on the ER newsgroup on Usenet), so I had no idea that was coming. Gyah!!!!

:eek:

Some others:

*Many moments from various horror flicks like The Exorcist, The Omen, Amityville Horror. As a rule, I try to stay away from most horror films (I'm such a chicken!).

I should have mentioned this, much more priorly-
 

Of the "diary" pictures. I swapped places, several times with the stage performer. I am the one who is wearing the white outfit, and also the one standing sideways and holding his arms up high and shirtless. I actually had very small nipples at the time but thanks to a tube of my mother's lip stick at the time...and for the tattoos around the left wrist I used an eye pencil. Just telling it like it is. I was sure to forget to mention it once again anyway. Please feel free to have fun with this information as you see fit. There are no dummies here, although it is something of an acceptable open channel to discuss such things. If you don't believe me, then perhaps you may have noticed that there haven't been any outside questions at all as to the otherwise questionable reality I only know as truth. Whenever I am wrong I tend to over apologize before re-wording my posts. I am hardly ever wrong about anyhing I care to share with you, but sometimes the memories of the work I have actually performed are, I hope somewhat understandibly fuzzy after all- I volunteered to be driven crazy to produce such an enormous volume of works by so many names. My needs are met by the sweat of my brow to this day. I cannot be bought. I cannot be played. I am keeping what is mine on BOTH sides of the spectrum of reality. I am so tired from all of the ignorance I have volunteered to suffer. I'd really love to leave a joke that would have all of the members of this forum fighting for breath, right now it seems that I am just too tired to want to laugh myself.

Jed and the gimp and Bruce Willis in the pawn shop? I guess Marcelis was there too, but not really...

[b]What do you feel is the most disturbing movie scene you can recall? Whether it is disgusting humor, graphic violence, or horror it doesn't matter. Something that when you saw it for the first time, you almost had to avert your eyes, or just felt like throwing up. And still gives you that feeling whenever you think about it or see it.

For some reason I don't really understand (because there's lots more graphic and awful stuff on the movie screens these days), my most disturbing scene is from the film "Never Give A Inch" (now retitled to match the book from which it was made, Ken Kesey's "Sometimes a Great Notion"). There is a scene when one of the logging family members is trapped underwater by a log, and his brother tries to buddy breathe with him until the water rises enough to float the log off of him. The brother who is pinned finds humor in having to "kiss" his brother through this predicament, and begins to make goofy faces, finally breaking out in laughter...underwater. And he drowns.

It is a very disturbing scene in so many ways. Anyone else seen this very fine and often overlooked Paul Newman film?

Yes, absolutely, one of the nastiest scenes ever. The whole thing being prefaced with the beatings as Malcolm McDowell performs an apocalyptic version of "Singing in the Rain" is absolutely chilling; really throws one off kilter emotionally.

For those who enjoyed the film at all on any level, you simply must read the book as it much more fully fleshes out the real meaning of what is going on...namely, is it right to commit atrocities in order to prevent them?

The Deep-
 

This was always another one of those movies that kept me on the edge of my seat, even though I already knew the outcome(s) in advance. The scenes that depicted the agony of others fighting for life and for air while under water was a most effective spine tingler.

I was eight when I saw "Jaws" for the very first time. I remember it was a very long time before I ever went swimming again, even in the baby pool.:)
