Okay, gore doesn't faze me in the least. I sat through the abortion scenes without batting an eye. But when she drank the water and dribbled it into the guy's mouth, I was rolling around on the couch and gagging.
Perhaps there is something wrong with me.
The crunching sound got to me.
shareYes, none of what the OP mentioned really grossed me out, but that crunching sound just, ugh, made me shiver.
"When the remarkable turns bizarre, reason turns rancid."
The crunching made me cringe. The water, while gross, was the least-gross thing in the movie.
shareThat WAS disgusting - I had to turn away...
shareI had to turn around away when she was in the bathtub and pulled out that long sharp thing. I'm thinking "Please don't show the blood in the water." Thank goodness it didn't go any further than that!!!
shareGore itself doesn't bother me but sometimes when someone in a movie gets a painful injury, I cringe and grab the body part that they hurt in the movie. So when that scene came up I was like, "oh god that probably hurts!" and held my lady parts. The tongue part at the end actually startled me.
shareHmm, I thought it was kind of hot.
Nothing in any of the three flicks bothered me except for the child being strangled in "Cut". That was a bit disturbing. The rest was a good time.

The part where she's staring at the camera with blood dripping out of her mouth creeped the hell out of me. Then to top it off she did that tongue thing, I screamed out loud when I saw that. It was a mixture of anger and disgust.
shareMaybe some other people with a deeper knowledge of Chinese traditions will correct me, but I think this is a twist on a source of youth for men. Drinking the saliva drooling from the woman mouth during orgasm, I was told,is rejuvenating for the man.
Again, I heard about this "Fountain of Jade" long long time ago, I read about this in a book in Spanish whose title I could not remember to save my life...
So I may be proven utterly wrong. But so far, and given the context of the movie, it kind of makes sense to me.

the scene when the dead baby pops out and u just see it laying there. A baby who doesn't cry it came out. A baby boy.
shareI didn't really find any of it unappealing or gross; The whole film was awesome and the 'gore' didn't turn me off one bit! I think it was done - for lack of a better word - TASTEFULLY!! Sorry, I couldn't help myself. ;)
share"Tasteful" is a good word for the segment. The crunching, the bleeding, the spitting, the eating were all devoid of gore and exploitation -- which actually made the film more shocking because it seemed rather "normal." That's a major distinction between Japanese and American horror.
shareEverything that woman did disturbed me. How vain can you be?
shareYeah that was gross. I'm not into food swapping or drinking water out of someone's mouth. One time my wife thought it would be hot to kiss me while she was eating a pop tart and shove the partially chewed up pop tart in my mouth with her tongue. And I was like.. "Gross! Why did you do that!!"
I'm quietly judging you.
@Yukandueet......I read your post and almost p'd myself!!! Soooo damn funny!!!! :)
