- DirectorJohn Erick DowdleStarsStacy ChboskyBen MessmerSamantha RobsonIn an abandoned house in Poughkeepsie, New York murder investigators uncover hundreds of tapes showing decades of a serial killer's work.Upsetting beyong belief..

- DirectorTakashi MiikeStarsRyo IshibashiEihi ShiinaTetsu SawakiA widower takes an offer to screen girls at a special audition, arranged for him by a friend to find him a new wife. The one he fancies is not who she appears to be after all.Brutal!! the last 20min will disturb the hell out of you.. nothing can really prepare you for what you see.. A must see, brilliant film!
- DirectorLars von TrierStarsWillem DafoeCharlotte GainsbourgStorm Acheche SahlstrømA grieving couple retreat to their cabin in the woods, hoping to repair their broken hearts and troubled marriage, but nature takes its course and things go from bad to worse.WOW!

Generally i can take violence, but i battled to watch some of these scenes.
- DirectorTakashi MiikeStarsYûta SoneKimika YoshinoShohei HinoA yakuza enforcer is ordered to secretly drive his beloved colleague to be assassinated. But when the colleague unceremoniously disappears en route, the trip that follows is a twisted, surreal and horrifying experience.it's extremely strange and surreal. Some of the images are totally shocking and disgusting and some of them disturbed me alot.
- DirectorSimon RumleyStarsLeo BillRoger Lloyd PackKate FahyA descent into Hell is triggered when "Ex-Lord" Donald Brocklebank finds that he must leave Longleigh House for London to find a way to pay for the medical treatments for his wife Nancy. Alone, his over-protected, delusional, adult son, James, fancies himself in charge of the manor house with his terminally ill mother, and barricades the two of them into the house for a series of ever more panicked home treatments, mistakenly protecting her from the arrival of Nurse Mary and any outside help.Incredibly underrated.. it disturbed me, alot, yet i'm still not exactly sure why.. See it for yourself..
- DirectorGaspar NoéStarsMonica BellucciVincent CasselAlbert DupontelEvents over the course of one traumatic night in Paris unfold in reverse-chronological order as the beautiful Alex is brutally raped and beaten by a stranger in an underpass tunnel.Uncannily realistic.. the first 40min will upset you no matter your age, sex, sexual oreintation, whatever.. if this doesn't disturb you i don't think much else will, but it's an amazing film none the less.
- DirectorDarren AronofskyStarsEllen BurstynJared LetoJennifer ConnellyThe drug-induced utopias of four Coney Island people are shattered when their addictions run deep..the best film in the whole world,, but powerful and disturbing,, the final images that Aronofsky leaves with you of the four characters (particularly Ellen Burstyn) will stay with you for a long time,,
- DirectorChris CunninghamStarsShelly WeissElvis FeticPercy RutterfordAn experimental music video about a wheelchair-bound boy who morphs and moves to an Aphex Twin song. The experience gets weirder when he takes cocaine and everything gets out of control.it's only six minutes,, but you won't forget them,, watch it on youtube,, it's not rough, it's genuinely strange,, and disturbing..
- DirectorOlatunde OsunsanmiStarsMilla JovovichElias KoteasWill PattonA thriller involving an ongoing unsolved mystery in Alaska, where one town has seen an extraordinary number of unexplained disappearances during the past 40 years and there are accusations of a federal cover up.call me what you like, but i had to sleep with the passage light on and the curtains closed.. wow! this genuinely scared and disturbed the crap out of me,,
- DirectorFabrice du WelzStarsLaurent LucasBrigitte LahaieGigi CoursignyMarc, a traveling entertainer, is on his way home for Christmas when his van breaks down in the middle of a jerkwater town with some strange inhabitants.this upset me alot.. especially the dinner table scene,, if you like non-graphic/ violent disturbing films, then this is the one to watch.
- DirectorSteven R. MonroeStarsSarah ButlerJeff BransonAndrew HowardA writer who is brutalized during her cabin retreat seeks revenge on her attackers, who left her for dead.a remake of the 70s video nasty.. i understand why, it's certainly not for everyone so i suggest that you approach it with caution,, depending on how feel about these types of movie, it will either: impress you and consequently disturb the hell out of you or; you will hate it and deem it a waste of time and nothing but torture,, i stuck with the first option,:)
- DirectorDarren AronofskyStarsNatalie PortmanMila KunisVincent CasselNina is a talented but unstable ballerina on the verge of stardom. Pushed to the breaking point by her artistic director and a seductive rival, Nina's grip on reality slips, plunging her into a waking nightmare.this movie somehow manages to squeeze beauty into this rather disturbing masterpiece,, Nat Portman's transformation is bewilderingly disturbing,, some of the images have stayed with me for weeks after watching it,,
- DirectorStanley KubrickStarsMalcolm McDowellPatrick MageeMichael BatesIn the future, a sadistic gang leader is imprisoned and volunteers for a conduct-aversion experiment, but it doesn't go as planned.Kubrick's masterpiece is as brutal as everyone makes it out to be.. with a primary theme or rape, this film (considering its context) holds nothing back even by today's standards,, a must see!!
- DirectorAlexandre BustilloJulien MauryStarsAlysson ParadisJean-Baptiste TabourinClaude LuléFour months after the death of her husband, a woman on the brink of motherhood is tormented in her home by a strange woman who wants her unborn baby.i love the French.. this is a violent one,, not as brutal as some of the others on this list but still a decent shock,, the images of the baby will make you laugh but otherwise there is not much else to laugh at..
- DirectorGyörgy PálfiStarsCsaba CzeneIstván GyuriczaGina MorenoThree generations of men, including a pervert that constantly seeks for new kinds of satisfaction, an obese speed eater and a passionate embalmer.this is the only film that has made me feel geniunely ill when watching it... it's really gross but an interesting film,,
- DirectorMarcus DunstanStarsJosh StewartAndrea RothJuan FernándezDesperate to repay his debt to his ex-wife, an ex-con plots a heist at his new employer's country home, unaware that a second criminal has also targeted the property, and rigged it with a series of deadly traps.this is just a gory film,, there is no substance, there is just harrowing violence throughout
- DirectorGideon RaffStarsThora BirchGideon EmeryKavan ReeceIn Europe, a group of American college athletes unknowingly boards a train that will become one deadly ride.this is the goreist fim i have ever seen,, Saw and Hostel could learn from this film.. it's actually really disgusting,, and the opening scene will gross you out,,
- DirectorSheldon WilsonStarsTimothy V. MurphyStan KirschLindsey StoddartA naked teenage boy covered in blood appears at a remote sheriff's station one year after the brutal unsolved murder of a local girl. Now Sheriff Jack Shepherd, guilt ridden over the girl's murder, must confront his own demons as he desperately searches for the boy's true identity and possible victims. Little does Jack realize that he has started down a path that will bring him face to face with an unthinkable horror. Before sunrise the living will pay for the pain the dead have suffered.a small, low-budget horror that makes no effort to sugar coat itself.. it boastfully displays some of the most disgusting and disturbing imagery i have ever seen,,,
- DirectorAlexandre AjaStarsTed LevineKathleen QuinlanDan ByrdA traveling family falls victim to a group of mutated cannibals in a desert far away from civilization.my first really disturbing film, so it has to be on this list,,, the mutants are something else,,
- DirectorEli RothStarsJay HernandezDerek RichardsonEythor GudjonssonThree backpackers head to a Slovak city that promises to meet their hedonistic expectations, with no idea of the hell that awaits them.this is the gory alternative to Saw... what happens to that poor asian girl made me feel sick,, a harrowing film of note..,
- DirectorJames WatkinsStarsKelly ReillyMichael FassbenderTara EllisRefusing to let anything spoil their romantic weekend break, a young couple confront a gang of loutish youths with terrifyingly brutal consequences.I have never hated a person so much as i did the main teen and his gang in this film..
The ending will make you angry, not because it's bad, but because it's just so damn good,,
-----Spoiler------
The scene when they have the guy tied up to the tree and when they necklace that poor indian chap upset and enraged me,,
just watch it.. - DirectorBryan BertinoStarsScott SpeedmanLiv TylerGemma WardA young couple staying in an isolated vacation home are terrorized by three unknown assailants.as the scariest movie i have ever seen, it just needed to be on the list,, it creates the most uncomfortable environment into which i've ever been placed..
