was there a reason that he remade it then, if it was just going to be the exact same thing?
yeah, i realized that i was so incredibly frustrated at the end because absolutely nothing went the way i wanted it to go, but that's what made it good i guess.
and is that what you personally think the director wants us (as viewers) to think, or did the director actually say something about our obsession with violence and pain? just curious.

You know that the guy didn't actually get castrated in Hard Candy. She numbed him and put one of those office clips down there. The whole point was to get in his head, not physically harm him. Besides eventually leading to his suicide.

The most disturbing scene has to be in The Hitcher. Both the original and the remake has this scene where one of the characters (girl in the original, guy in the remake) is chained to a semi truck between the cab and the trailer. It cannot accurately be described. It is just horrible.

That and in the new Texas Chainsaw Massacre when the chainsaw guy comes out with the main girl's boyfriend's face on his face.

The official explanation is that he wanted the film to appeal to (and reach) a larger audience.



He's not shy about his intent. I've read multiple interviews where Haneke talks about Funny Games as a way to show us our disgusting appetites. Although, I may be speaking a bit our of turn. In either case:

Most of the suicides from "The Happening". ESPECIALLY the 'lawn mower' scene. and when the dad steps out of the crashed jeep, sits down like a little kid and just starts to scrape his wrists with the broken class.

i see.
aw, he's french =) well, that was helpful in understanding what he wanted viewers to get in the movie. i remember being so happy when the wife shot one of the guys, then only finding that it didn't happen

He's actually Austrian. He does speak the language though, heh heh.

... and yet i am so certain I heard the sawing of the parts and saw her put his balls in a blender ...

Do you think the sawing of flesh would make an audible sound? Just saying.

I don't remember the blender part, but I do distinctly remember him looking down and taking an office clip off that area.

in SAW III with that pig-grinder thing, that almost made me through up, that was f**king gross...

and somewhere in my disturbed mind, it turned me on... but it was mostly just stupid and gross...

oh, haha =)


that's because she had a tape playing in the background or something. she definitely did not do the real thing.

I know she didn't actually do it, but...



having been a surgeon's intern and witnessing an entire summer's worth of surgery... yes, i do, depending on the area being "sawed" off.

That scene in Disturbia where they show all the dead bodies floating in the water and in the vents.

I KNOW.
the movie itself wasn't good at all (for me at least-except for marcia gay harden's acting and the little boy), but i really was not expecting the ending at all. so heartbreaking. i mean, it was his son. and if he had just waited like five more minutes. ARGHJHHHHK.

This horrible indie film called Palindrome.

I really don't like seeing girls throw up there food.
Or people crying hysterically at funerals.
Or an overweight girl have sex with a retarded person.


It was wayyy too much for me too handle, so I had to leave.

The scene in Pan's Labyrinth when the bad general dude smashes another guys face in with a bottle. That scene was horrible & sad.

i just watched bastard out of carolina and there were a few scenes that were pretty disturbing. but what was weird to me was that, even though the rape scenes were bad, i felt a lot more uncomfortable when the stepfather actually kissed her

[size="5"][/size] The most disturbing movie scene Ive seen was the rape scene in Scum where the 3 guys rape the young boy and the governer is watching through the window it looked so real and I think it had more impact because we were really stoned

the movie called Audition. the whole movie gave me chills. especially when the teacher stuck a long candle stick thing into her private area.

The part in Mirrors when Keifer Sutherland's sister gets her jaw pulled in half..

Oh, and pretty much every 2 minutes in the SAW movies..

The scene in Shutter with the girl's head fell off because of her body deteriorating after she had sat there for years.

well ,
i don't watch a lot of scary / horror movies, but the scene in Sweeney Todd when he finally kills Judge Turpin really stuck in my mind.

It may not be the worst, but bad enough for me.

That part in Funny Games where the boy gets shot and flies against the wall

I found the inexplicable bear felatio scene in The Shining rather off-putting.

I dunno, I kind of like being made uncomfortable/disturbed by cinema.

its really suppose to be funny but the thanksgiving 'commercial' in grind house where the girl is jumping on the trampoline and does a split landing on a knife (in her you know what)
omg.

also the scene in solider girl where one guy bashes the head of another with a bat.... i can't see head-trauma freaks me out... never got over that scene.


i felt bad for Turpin... I'm a Alan Rickman fan so that was the only reason.


oh yeah saw that in the commercial that was freaky.


that very last scene were the guy is standing in the corner and the girl freaks out... that scared me for a while when i was a kid. Refuse to watch it now.. and i'm 19.


oh yeah i didn't see the movie but caught the tail end... man that was sad. Imagine living with that for the rest of your life... sad.

I knooow!
I LOVE Alan Rickman.
