Most disgusting scene in a film?

Heh, I found "The Exorcist" hilarious when I saw it a few years ago.

But that's probably just 'cos I'm twisted.

Could well have been, but it was a long time ago and my memory is'nt what it used to be.

The Exorcist is a highly overrated film. I have it in my DVD collection purely due to its place in the history of cinema, not because I necessarily want it as a film to repeatedly watch.

Definitely agree that it's overrated. I saw it in the cinema when it was re-released, & found it a combination of boring and unintentionally funny. I can perhaps see why it caused such as fuss originally, but now....nothing special.

Not that I've ever seen it, but the scene in Luis Bunuel and Salvador Dali's famous film Un chien andalou where a woman's eyeball is slit open probably rates a mention.

You could be right........can't remember now......last saw it 20 yrs ago

I'd have to say blade 2 with the exploding vampires when Wesley snipes injects the serum into the vampires and they explode

There are many films with disgusting scenes but they all appear to have one thing in common. The disgusting bit usually occurs when we are sat in the lounge having a take away.

You know, I always thought that bit in the film "Event Horizon" where you briefly see the guy eating his own arm extremely quickly was pretty disturbing .

Yet another famous film that I haven't seen is Pasolini's SalÃÃâ€*’² or 120 Days of Sodom. I believe that terms such as sick, disgusting, vile apply to it.

not exactly a film, but the video 'Executions' that created an uproar about 10 years ago was pretty bad. Real footage of actual executions including a middle eastern chap being shot in the face at close range, and gasping for breath. The first half of the 'film' was pretty tame.
On a similar subject, someone emailed me the clip of the Western journalist being beheaded recently. That was pretty sick & didn't last long on the hard disk.

The first time I watched Dawn of the Dead I bit into a pancake roll just as a "zombie" bit a chunk out of a guys arm. I momentarily considered the visual parallels, and then continued to tuck away into my takeaway.

You don`t do film reviews for the Daily Mail do you, I seem to recall that was the same approach they took with their condemnation of "Crash."

Reminds me of Duel at Diablo (I think) where a guy is strung out in sand over a spike, the sand that's supporting him is gradually running away and he finally gets impaled on the spike. Ohh ow.

Not a movie, but I know a lot of people say the cover to NOFX - Heavy Petting Zoo" is disgusting. How they have it on sale here, I don't know. I would say posting a link to the album cover would be offensive, but considering Amazon and HMV have the cover on their site, I doubt it matters that much, but i'll play ti safe. If anyone wants to see it, goto Amazon (UK or US) or HMV UK (Only has a small pic there though, large on Amazon) and see for yourself. If you are wondering what it is of, well, the title "Heavy Petting Zoo" should give you a clue.
