Which film do you wish you hadn't seen (not because it was crap)

[GiganticusBottomus]

I saw Fennel posted on the 'we need to talk about Kevin' thread saying she's just seen the film and wished she hadn't

I really wish I hadn't seen 'Seven' I found it really disturbing.

Any other films you recommend avoiding?

Lilya 4 Eva. I knew it would be heartbreaking, and tried not to watch it, it left me depressed for a long time, and I still get flashbacks and can well up when reminded about it.

I watch a lot of films, but have managed to avoid most of the ones mentioned.

Juno? I love Juno!

Mirage that episode of X-files is horrible, you are right!

I haven't seen A Serbian Film but I wish I hadn't read the wikipedia entry about it, if that gives you any idea.

I saw Seven when I was about 13 and was depressed for weeks.

Irreversible - made me feel sick and scared and violated...awful film. 28 days later scared the poo out of me and when I watched the descent with my dh I actually screamed out when that things face appears behind the frightened woman...omg just thinking about it makes me want to turn all lights on.
Also Blair witch project gave me the worst nightmare ever straight after I watched it...dreamt a hooded figure came up the stairs in my house came into my room lent down to my face...I woke up paralysed with terror and made my then bf turn the lights on and search the house.
I don't tend to watch horror anymore as the few that I have watched still leave me with a fear of the dark and the necessity to have to run up the stairs at night for fear of something grabbing my ankles and dragging me down! Sad but true!

In the American version of the Descent, she gets away. We don't do so well with hopeless.

A Ray Winstone film called 'The Warzone'. It destroyed me. I still have flashbacks to the scene. I truly wish I could bleach it from my brain.

Ok so now i really want to see Eden Lake and Saw.

Cant believe people have mentioed Creep, its so lame!

Mine is anything catholic exorcist type thing so The Exorcist (which i now refuse to watch) and the Exorcism of Emily Rose. I dont like horror that is possible, i can cope with the made up shit.

Oh and Wolfs Creek really freaked me out too.

Has anyone got an old copy of 'lets go play at the Adams' that they want to lend me?

Oh Chicken 'The Warzone' was one of the most disturbing films I have (n)ever seen, I didn't make it to the end, truly horrendous. Bleached brain and eyeballs needed!

Isn't it heartbreaking, Fay? I actually can't watch Ray Winstone in anything else now. My logical brain knows that he is just, you know, acting, but my emotional primal brain wants to kill him and kill him good.

Sophies choice and Manhunter (the old version of red dragon) made me very nervous at night for ages.

To be honest, there aren't films I wish I hadn't seen, even those that haunted me for a while.
The few films I wish I had never seen were really the crap, pretentious waste of timers, like Lost in Translation.

Another vote for breaking the waves, and not just because it was depressing, but because she got on my nerves.

Wolf Creek for me as well. Had no idea what it was about when started watching it. Really disturbed by it.

Ring. The Korean version. The thing it's brilliant but the third time I watched it I had a panic attack in the middle and had to walk out. It wasn't as if I was watching it alone, either. Definitely qualifies as Most Creepy Film Ever.
Natural Born Killers was pretty bad too.

Another for Wolfe Creek . I didn't dare get in the hot tub afterwards .

Blair Witch. My Uni friend had to come and sleep in my bedroom .

Mum and Dad is just vile, vile, vile.

I was really disturbed but not scared by Pans Labyrinth and Apocylitpto (can't spell)

Chicken, I think the fact that it was Ray W made it even worse!
I had the same experience with This is England '86 and had to google the actor who disturbed me the most to remind myself that he was really just an actor.

Agree about Seven as well, and A Clockwork Orange is horrifying and not in a good way.

Oh, and Rosemary's Baby!!!

MadameWooovary has reminded me of one: Salvador, mainly because of the rape scene.

Goodnight Mother. Sissy Spacek and Anne Bancroft. Traumatic.

The Vanishing. I'd heard it was really good, very involving, remake a travesty etc. All true, it was excellent. I never normally watch horror and should have stuck to my rule. It's 90 minutes (?) of vague unease and gathering clouds and then an absolute explosion of horror and everything looks different afterwards. I still get images from it before going to sleep 15 years later.

Grave of the Fireflies.
Beautiful, beautiful film but absoloutely heartbreaking. It stayed with me for a looong time.

Oh, and any of the 'Saw' films. Just fucking awful.

Horror and gore, I quite enjoy

But films that have left me emotionally traumatised...

Sophie's Choice
Who will love my children
schindlers list
Boy in striped pyjamas
Beaches....prob cos I cry when I hear Bette Midler singing sad songs
And I watched that film (can't rememeber name) with Tom Hanks about the man who has aids, a couple of weeks ago, and I cried buckets!

Boy in the Striped Pajamas - upset me for ages
