What films do you wish you HADN'T seen?

[rubbishbin]

I have to say, I wish I'd never watched The Shining (at a sleepover when I was 14). It scared the pants off me!

Anyone else?

[Beebeeeight]

IT

Saw 2

The decent

Silent hill

The triangle

[CeciliaMiddleton]

Dawn of Justice. Absolutely terrible film. This list is hilarious www.culturewhisper.com/r/article/worst_films_2016/7671

[getoutofitnow]

Hand that rocks the cradle.. Found it really disturbing could never watch it again

[nonameavaliable]

Open water - never getting that time back

The rise of Hannibal - i don't mind horror or physiological horror but that film is just to disturbing. I think it is the believability of what it would take to turn someone evil.

Blair witch project - really,,,, just total crap.

[SomeDaysIDontGiveAMonkeys]

Wolf creek. Had to switch it off. No film should be that violent.

[QueenLizIII]

Not sure if I said it but The Road.

haunting but in a really bad way. Life was utterly pointless. Just nothing to live for at all.

[dannyglick]

Salem's Lot, where the vampire is floating up outside the window.
But inspired me for for my MN username.

[Shockers]

Scum. Some scenes haunted me for a long time afterwards.

[MrsPMT]

The Fly 2, the scene with the dog haunted me for years, horrid.

[LeavesinAutumn]

Room.

Too harrowing for me. Great film, dont understand why the child actor didn't get award for the role.
But what I didnt like was the strange turn at the end towards her parenting skills.

There is no way any solicitor would allow such a question on tv ( do you think you should have let the child go when born to be free) - what a stupid question, hand over child to kidnapping sexually deviant mad man? To kill? to rape? Then the path the film followed about her mother skills....

odd. Shame. Her own cold mother.

I knew it would be a challenging film, but I was given impression the second half when they escape was up lifting, I I suffered the first part in floods of tears, waiting for redemption, waiting for the second half when they explore the outside world, when they go out, to the beach, do simple things that will be amazing to them.

It never came, we just moved to another room her parents house, more drama and more upset.
Awful I have not been so traumatised since I accidentally watched the original Elephant man at 12 on late night TV. And before that, Bambi.

Irreversible, a man is bludgeoned to death with a fire extinguisher, a woman is anally raped, the scene lasts about to minutes, and then beaten to a pulp. God it is beyond grim, a bloody nightmare.

[Araminta99]

500 Days of Summer. SO depressing and left me determined not to get married! I got over it but still makes me feel yucky when I think of it.

[littlebillie]

Henry a portrait of a serial killer - I watched it at uni film club I'll never unsee it

[SunsetBeetch]

Wolf Creek. Just unrelentingly grim and gruesome. And I say that as a big horror fan

[cowbag1]

The Killer Inside Me - has some really graphic scenes of dv against women that I found really sickening and still haunt me now. Wish I'd never seen it.

[purpleme12]

Stephen King's The Mist

[purpleme12]

Leavesinautumn that's interesting what you say about Room. I've not seen it but I've read the book and it doesn't sound anything like the book from what you say. Doesn't sound good!

[Patriciathestripper1]

Final destination just before s long haul flight 😟😟

[BiscuitCapitalOfTheWorld]

The Lobster- when the dog gets kicked to death. Grim

Wolf Creek- all of it

The Devil Inside Me- pornified domestic violence

[purpleme12]

Quite glad I read this thread- just read the plot of The Road and don't think I'll be watching that either now!

[DeleteOrDecay]

Fast Times at Ridgemount High, think it was made in the 70's or 80's so it was a 'different time' I guess. But some of the scenes involving one of the under age female characters and an older male character made me feel really uncomfortable. Had to ask dp to turn it off.

[StopLaughingDrRoss]

Trainspotting - I think I just had a sheltered youth as watched this at 18 and cane our the cinema green, genuinely thought I was going to be ill. I've never watched it again

And Meet the Feebles is by Peter Jackson and is an awesome film

[LadyCassandra]

Just gone through the whole thread. I'm not a horror fan so haven't watched most of these. But of the non-horror movies:
12 years a slave
Precious
I was compelled to keep watching but would never again

The one film I will never watch again is Benjamin Button. The ending was so bleak. I spent the next couple of days in a state of shock/despair.
