What are the most sickest, shocking, disgusting and gruesome films you have ever seen or heard of?
I've seen A Serbian Film which is quite bad but isn't very watchable and then recently I've also heard of The Gateway Meat, August Underground's Mordum and Nekromantik which sound quite shocking.

One of the films that got to me the most was Jack Ketchum's The Girl Next Door. It was very brutal and uncomfortable to watch. Seeing a girl get beaten, tortured and raped by her own family is bad enough, and knowing it was based off of a true life case made it even more disturbing.
Nekromantik to me wasn't all that disturbing. Most of my friends found the film to be quite boring, but I myself enjoyed it. People focus on the necrophilia aspect of it, but I look at it as a film showing a man slowly losing his sanity before finally committing suicide.
Mermaid in a Manhole is another one I found to be really sick. A painter finds a mermaid in the sewers and takes her home. She is sick and then she begins to get covered with sores which bleed many different colors, which he uses to paint with. Other stuff happens too but I don't want to give it all away.

The Girl Next Door is definitely a very disturbing film. I haven't seen Nekromantik in a long time, but I don't remember being particularly disturbed by it, and A Serbian Film did nothing for me at all.
Cannibal Holocaust is pretty shocking at times, and some scenes are disturbing. And Eraserhead is just nuts from start to finish. I still need to see Mermaid in a Manhole Tomas, that trailer looked good.

I think the whole movie is available on youtube. I know seeing it on the computer isn't the same as watching it on you television, but that's your best bet unless you find a download or torrent.

Watching Eraserhead now, and I'm just freaked out at what's going on. I really am. It's a film that still catches me off guard.
Cannibal Holocaust is a screwed up film because of the real animals used. That's what really gets to you. Not even the killing of the animals or the field dressing of them, but how the documenters relished in the fact that they were killing and maiming. They loved every minute of it. That was sickening.
I'm going to throw the recent Maniac on here for shocking and disgusting. The deaths in it were brutal, but the real shock of the film comes from the first person perspective. That feeling of that point of view, experiencing those deaths in such a way, not as a spectator but as the murderer, that is what gets you the most in this film. You are him, you are committing these horrible acts, and you can't do anything to stop the madness.
This is not a horror film, but I think it fits because of a few scenes in it, and that's Casino. That scene where Pesci and his brother are beaten and buried is one of the roughest things I've watched, especially as a teenager.
Yes, I am bumping this thread for the new people on the forum to comment on.

Caligula is probably the only movie that I ever walked out on in a movie theater. I saw it when it first came out in the movies because I really liked Malcom McDowell from A Clockwork Orange in '71, but it was just too freakin' sick for me to sit through.
Hands down, the most disturbing and disgusting film I have ever partially watched was Salo, 120 Days of Sodom. I rented it from a Blockbuster Video Store many years ago. It was in the foreign section and since Blockbuster didn't carry "bad" films, I was caught off guard by how graphic it was. I was so freaked out, I brought it right back to the store half watched. Somehow this film is considered art...look at one of the critiques:
The notorious final film from Pier Paolo Pasolini, Salò, or The 120 Days of Sodom has been called nauseating, shocking, depraved, pornographic . . . It’s also a masterpiece. The controversial poet, novelist, and filmmaker’s transposition of the Marquis de Sade’s eighteenth-century opus of torture and degradation to Fascist Italy in 1944 remains one of the most passionately debated films of all time, a thought-provoking inquiry into the political, social, and sexual dynamics that define the world we live in.
Interesting review of several disturbing films, some already mentioned:

I think gorepolice and I talked about Salo before, but I have yet to see it myself. I want to just out of morbid curiosity. I'm kind of messed up like that and would like to see something so disturbing I'd have to turn it off. I thought the Human Centipede films would do it, and then A Serbian Film, and both were graphic but not disturbing to me. NDX Maniac was disturbing because of how it was filmed and putting the viewer in the first person perspective and I loved it. Brutal murders and in the first person definitely put the movie over the top.

I thought Salo was stupid. I didn't finish watching it, not because I was disturbed, but because it just came off as ridiculous and silly instead of shocking.

Man, the remake of The Hills Have Eyes disturbed me more than the movies that were pegged as "disturbing". When they lit that dude on fire...I had to take a break.

The only movie I had to actually turn off was Human Centipede 2 and this is because there was a pregnant woman involved and it looked like he was getting ready to cut her up, sorry but I could not watch something like that having a daughter myself.

The Strangers was a pretty rough watch, them stabbing her boyfriend to death in front of her. I'd add Snuff since it was supposed to be real, but it sucked so bad. Even if it was real it was only disturbing in the sense that I paid money to rent it, lol.

He didn't get to cut her up, but what happened after might have upset you more. Probably for the best you turned it off. Personally, I thought Human Centipede 2 was more of a comedy than anything else.

I felt the same way about it. I was disappointed with both HC films really.

For some reason, The Last House on the Left remake messed me up. Well, mostly the scene in the woods where they stab her friend and they start to rape the girl. I was in the theater watching it, and I nearly hurled into my popcorn. Just, the sound of her being raped.. and.. ugh. I can't.

Rape scenes are always a tough watch.
