Most disturbing segments.


What would you guys say are the most disturbing segments from Pink Floyd's The Wall?

The RAF pilots with a dog named "N-word" in the movie Pink was watching on his hotel room tv.

Don't look too unkindly on this. The film was 'The Dambusters' http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0046889/. The dog was black and that's all that's implied here. Also, there's a chance (but I don't know) that this is a real even that happened as The Dambusters is based on real events.

Yes it is. That was the actual name of Guy Gibson's Labrador.

I'd say when that chick was trying to chill with him and he up and went ballistic...You never know with some people...

The bit in the limo where he tears his face off.

The Nazi rally. Always shakes me up.

For me, the most disturbing part is when Pink is shaving his eyebrows. Just have a naked blade so close to the eyes pushes all my squick buttons. There are a few seconds there that I still have not seen, even having watched the movie dozens of times. I always have to glance away.

And, really...the dog is, I think, a black lab, it's name is *beep* which, while not politically correct was legit when the movie was made and when the story was set. No one was called a name, it wasn't a put down. People should stop being so afraid of a word when there's no malevolence behind it. If I recall, the only racially negative part was the black guy and the white girl in back of the car getting beaten by the Nazis, and was shown as an awful thing to happen to them.

Well, that was bit of stupid editing...and proves my point.

I always get chills watching the What Shall We Do Now animated sequence. I've watched it so many times and know what happens but still gets me every time.

There's another split second in that sequence where I have to give a quick glance away, just for an eye blink. When the wall shoots past the two figures and the child becomes the soldier who hit's the other over the head and the...uh, body part flies toward the screen. Even though it only animation...ugh! But as the whole sequence, and the movie in itself, I love it!

I always get creeped out when it shows him in a stray jacket and he turns around and looks crazy. The lighting in that scene adds to the creepiness.

My gf FREAKED out at the part when the doves explodes into the great black eagle and the heavy synth from 'Goodbye Blue Sky' starts in.

reply

That's my favourite part. It's beautiful.

reply

The part when he slams the guitar into the TV set. I first saw that scene when I was about 7. Scared the crap out of me.

reply

not that I found much that disturbed in the entire movie, but when his hand gets impaled on the jagged broken glass of the hotel window. Yeah, that part kinda gets me a little bit.

reply

The Trial. I need not explain further.
