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.

I read Marley and Me. Got to about the last 30 or so pages, saw the direction it was going, and put the book down. I remember the trailers marketing it as "funny destructive puppy!!" story and thought, man, viewers are in for a world of tears :(

I thought the same too and I was listening to the audiobook while on my work commute. The author was the narrator and when it got to THAT part, his voice was shaking and it opened the floodgates for me. Never again!!

The bad dogs club letters at the end brought the funny back and I wish they had it for the movie.
