I was talking with a friend of mine about M. Night Shyamalamadingdong's Unbreakable today. He hadn't seen it and I was telling him about Sam Jackson's character "Mr. Glass", and I inwardly cringed when I described the scene with him falling down the stairs.
There are some scenes in movies that I cannot stomache for various reasons, and I'd like to hear about others.
American History X
Edward Norton's character "curb stomps" a poor soul. This was an absolutely horrifying thing to watch. This is easily the most gut-turning thing ever put to film.
Saving Private Ryan
A German soldier very slowly drives a knife into an American soldier's chest, while softly whispering to him. I've seen Saving Private Ryan a few times, but I've only watched that scene once.
Saw 2
Woman is thrown into a pit of hypodermic needles, and flails around searching for a key. UGH!
Pet Sematary
Zombie child thinks of new and inventive ways to slice up an elderly neighbour.
Cast Away
Figure skate versus toothache. Oh god no.
