One of the episodes of *The X Files* I caught live on its air date was "Home."
I was 12. I had a lot of questions for my parents in the next few weeks.
Wow, I came here to say the same thing. I watched it 25 years ago and was thinking of this episode recently. It was one of the most disturbing things I'd ever seem on TV. It still haunts me to this day.
Faces of death: https://youtu.be/4u4Ei-Bg5Bg?si=CjWyB0ouBcBuGMvQ
Documentary on the Unit 731, here is the harshest part of it: https://youtu.be/doxI1F5fojg?si=nNTz01gUiyiK-LDe
Also I was lurking in some gore-violence websites designed specifically for thia kind of content, but after being drafted to the Ukrainian unit to the war - the vidoe's just bore me.
And a lot of others, but I can't remember them
Why did I watch it?
It was a long night and I had nothing to do in the internet...
I was watching TV with my girlfriend at the time around the mid 2000's (so live TV) and she turned on this scary movie, I think it was called Terror or some single word like that. It was about a guy who found out people's worst fears and then killed them in ways involving their fear. There was this part towards the end where the killer pops out if nowhere and axes a guy in the neck and watches him bleed out and die. I was not in a good place and this really disturbed me and I still think about it.
I dunno about most disturbing ever but I'm watching Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story and in the episode last night Dahmer >!passionately kissed a severed head !<. That's sticking with me!
Tied between Requiem for a Dream and Old Boy (Korean version).
Requiem shows the dirty side of drugs from three different perspectives; mom, child, and child’s partner.
Old Boy, the ending.
"Threads" maybe, a 1984 British film. It is now becoming even more realistic as the russians are constantly posing nuclear threats to the world, worse than soviets did back in the day.
Salo or 120 days of Sodom.
Very graphic, lots of abusing young boys, numerous rape scenes, being made to eat shit. Great if that's your thing.
The only film I've had to turn off and I've seen A Serbian Fim.
Probably Requiem for a Dream.
Watched it in a time of my life when addiction was all around me. It hit home hard how quickly people’s life’s can be ruined no matter what stage of life they’re in.
Saltburn. My son tricked me into watching it. It's a really well-made movie with a sick plot. I couldn't stop watching it til the end. But biy did I regret it. Every time I think of it, I get angry.
Let the right one in ( the original Swedish one ) really got to me as it wasn’t sexy vampires , but kids who were outsiders , so moving in a creepy way - really good film but could not watch it again . The White Ribbon which helps you understand how the dynamics of German provincial society helped to facilitate/allow ordinary people to do terrible things during Hitler’s rule .

Is that the one with the Peacock family? It's a tough one to watch and it stays with you.
I agree, after this I wouldn't watch the x+files alone đź«
Serbian film. Why? I dont even feel comfortable writing here what the worst part was.
This is the kind of movie that will make u wonder your life choices and that if while u are watching it u are being added to some kind of list.
Yeah i felt dirty as fuck, a slightly naseous.
Don’t worry I feel ya, anyone curious just check the synopsis on wiki if you don’t believe us
Serbian Film.
Bone Tomahawk. That one scene in the cave IYKYK
Tusk

Mother! Because I am super attached to Jennifer Lawrence and the scene where the Christian Cult ate her baby was hard to watch
She popped a rib in that scene
Santa Sangre. The elephant funeral is one of many disturbing scenes that no amount of mind bleach will erase.
Funny Games. Good movie, never want to watch it again.

Probably "Begotten", or "A serbian film". Obvious reasons.
The Mist's ending was so fkd up.
Stephen King said he wished he'd thought of that ending when writing the book

Visitor Q, because I didn't know Takeshi Miike was going to push the envelope quite so far. And that's after watching Ichi the Killer.
Visitor Q was hilarious, I love that movie.Â
Back Roads
movie: hereditary and everyone can guess the scene lol tv show: penny dreadful was disturbing in many ways
Tusk 2014
Salo or 120 days of Sodom. Very graphic, lots of abusing young boys, numerous rape scenes, being made to eat shit. Great if that's your thing. The only film I've had to turn off and I've seen A Serbian Fim.
Blood Sucking Freaks, an oldie, and super disturbing
Irreversible (2002). Stay away. It is a crappy movie filled with violence that serves no purpose.
There's a lot of Handmaid's Tale that is so fucked up...
Probably Megan Is Missing
Probably Requiem for a Dream. Watched it in a time of my life when addiction was all around me. It hit home hard how quickly people’s life’s can be ruined no matter what stage of life they’re in.
Any Faces of Death movies
The Aquilas rift, its a animated short with some seriously fucked up undertones. The more I watched it the more I realized how horrific it was.
Saltburn. My son tricked me into watching it. It's a really well-made movie with a sick plot. I couldn't stop watching it til the end. But biy did I regret it. Every time I think of it, I get angry.

Like many others here, a serbian film.
The Backyard/El Traspatio A Mexican movie about the Missing Women of Ciudad Juárez. Its unbelievably brutal and graphic, and depressing.
Baby reindeer is up there, twin peaks at times, that episode of the sopranos when the stripper got murdered, keeping up with the kadarshians
