I just accidentally watched a really violent horror . . .

[GuessingGownaGoGo]

It's was way too far in before I realised what was coming and it was really graphic. I usually avoid anything like this as the images show up in nightmares for years.

Has anyone got any good tips for cleaning my brain of this horrific film or am I stuck with it?

It wasn’t real. The violence was contrived and no one suffered. That’s what I kept telling myself when I accidentally watched Hellraiser

I won’t lie there were some finger in ears “LA LA LA” moments! I love horror but not a fan of gore.

This happened to me with ‘Under the Skin’ one night.

The beach scene with the baby.

I'll avoid that one then @ImDuranDuran

Hellraiser is nasty. Watched once, never again. Same with The Fly (80s version). Gross!!

And yet Evil Dead and sequels, The Thing, American Werewolf in London, I happily watch again and again. Maybe because there's some black comedy, scifi, action, romance mixed with those films. I don't know lol
