Anyone else have to cover their eyes during the strobe lights?


I occasionally go and check this board as the film always intrigues me enough to bring me back at times. I always forget to ask if others felt sick during the scene where the Japanese characters are dancing in the night club?

I remember when I first saw it, I tried to watch but I had to cover my eyes or look away because the lighting was causing discomfort and I almost felt like I was going to go into a seizure.

No... because I wasn't born defective

Yes, very much so. Apparently I was born defective.

I agree, that scene was an assault on the senses.
