E. Elias Merhige's Begotten.

And no, after countless attempts, I never did finish it.

Cannibal Holocaust and Dominion because I hate seeing animals getting actually murdered/tortured

But I also don't like watching it when it's fake either tbh

A Serbian Film or The audition

A Serbian Film

Just reading the plot summary was distrubing for that one. It shall remain forever unwatched.

Smart, i too wish i could be on your side of the table. If I could go back to my teenage self who wanted to be edgy and tell him to turn back I would have if he would have ever listened.

Irréversible

Bone Tomahawk has some of the most realistic and disturbing torture and violence I've ever seen on film. I went into it expecting a hard boiled western but its a straight up horror movie. Excellent film though, very underrated.

I found The Babadook deeply unsettling. I could never quite predict where the protagonist was going or what she was capable of. The creeping dread of ‘will she harm her child and blame this delusion?’ dominated the viewing for me.

Probably the only film I’ve ever literally watched from behind my fingers

Eraserhead did massive damage when I was ~17 years old.
