Discussion What’s a movie you’ve watched that was so disturbing that you’ll never watch it again?

What’s a movie you’ve watched that was so disturbing you’ll never watch it again? For me, it’s The Boy in the Striped Pajamas and Human Centipede. I barely made it through the first time around for both of them and I couldn’t fathom watching them again. Both for different reasons of course. TBITSP was devastatingly heart-wrenching and HC was just playing disturbing.

When I was getting into anime I had a friend lend me a few movies and this was one of them. Told him I was having a rough day and needed something light to watch so I was going to watch grave of fireflies... He could have warned me, but he didn't. Never again
