Hardest to watch scenes in movie history

Yahoo just put out an article about the hardest to watch scenes in film. And while they got a few, like the sodo scene in Pulp Fiction, I think they missed a few too.

Here are mine (the ones not mentioned)

1. Cop torture in Reservoir Dogs. This scene nearly made me puke.
2. Fight between Arquette and Gandolfini in True Romance. Same reaction.
3. Final scene in Bulworth. I won't spoil it, but it's different than the one they mentioned, which I don't think actually happened.
4. Car crash in Death Proof. Seems to be a lot of Tarantino on my list :)
5. Final scene in Point Break, the original. Totally unnecessary. Should have ended with the previous scene.
6. Shooting scene in Higher Learning. I hate seeing women suffering.
7, City of Angels/Message in a Bottle. The endings of both these movies are head scratchingly terrible.

The woman who was gutted alive in Turistas. Despicable scene in an awful movie.

To Live and Die in L.A.: Willem Dafoe shooting William Petersen.

Hannibal: Anthony Hopkin's cannibal serial killer feeding Ray Liotta's cop at the dinner with Clarice.

Cube: Getting sliced and diced by piano wire. Similar scene in Ghost Ship.

I was thinking of mentioning the Hannibal scene. And, yeah, seeing Peterson get shot does suck.

What rape scene in Pulp Fiction?

[–] [deleted] 2 years ago

iirc it was either Bruce Willis or Ving Rhames on the receiving end.

The worst rape scenes I remember are from "Strange Days" (1995) and "Se7en" (1995)

Joe Pesci and his brother being murdered in Casino.

Joe Pesci stabbing the guy in the trunk with a large kitchen knife in GoodFellas. That made me cringe the first time watching it.

[–] juviejay (456) 2 years ago

That scene in Casino was rough.

Haven't seen Goodfellas. I know. I'm sorry. I suck. I just never liked mob movies that much. The glorification of ultraviolent criminals never did it for me.
