The First Film to Make Me Physically Sick
Jackie Blue:
If you haven't seen Begotten, you kind of need to. It's easily the most disturbing thing that's been mentioned in this thread.
Tetsuo the Iron Man is another great one, though that works on a lot of different levels, not just "disturbing".

Careful kid, you sound like someone who just loves how excited crack makes him.

Tarkovsky's Andrei Rublev, possibly?
--- Quote from: wikipedia ---Several scenes within the film depict violence, torture and cruelty toward animals, leading to controversy and censorship attempts upon completion of the film. Most of these scenes took place during the raid of Vladimir, showing for example the blinding and the torture of a peasant. Most of the scenes involving cruelty toward animals were simulated. For example, during the Tatar raid of Vladimir a cow is set on fire. In reality the cow had an asbestos-covered coat and was not harmed. However, one scene depicts a the real death of a horse. The horse falls from a flight of stairs and is then stabbed by a spear. To produce this image, the horse was shot in the neck and pushed from the stairs, then shot in the head afterward. This was done to avoid the possibility of harming a stunt horse. The horse was brought in from a slaughterhouse, killed on set, and then returned to the slaughterhouse for commercial consumption. In a 1967 interview for Literaturnoe obozrenie, interviewer Aleksandr Lipkov suggested to Tarkovsky that "the cruelty in the film is shown precisely to shock and stun the viewers. And this may even repel them." To this Tarkovsky responded: "No, I don't agree. This does not hinder viewer perception. Moreover we did all this quite sensitively. I can name films that show much more cruel things, compared to which ours looks quite modest."

I wouldn't really describe Tetsuo as similiar to the other films mentioned.
Ikrik:
remind me to never take crack then, and the thought sounds a lot less creepy in my head. The point is I like the films...even though they sicken me.
Tetsuo was......weird and really confusing. It's kind of short too, isn't it only 58 minutes or something? I watched it five or six months ago and I really enjoyed it, even though it confused the living hell out of me.
Guinea Pig 2 is like Hostel? No way.....don't tell me that I'm going to sleep through it.
