- DirectorDanny LeeHerman YauStarsAnthony Chau-Sang WongDanny LeeEmily KwanMacau cops begin to suspect a man running a pork buns restaurant of murder, after tracing the origin of a case full of chopped up human remains that washed ashore, which leads them to him.This movie starts out as a comedy and then turns extremely dark. And by dark I mean horrible.
- DirectorJörg ButtgereitStarsBernd Daktari LorenzBeatrice ManowskiHarald LundtA street sweeper who cleans up after grisly accidents brings home a full corpse for him and his wife to enjoy sexually, but is dismayed to see that his wife prefers the corpse over him.If you want to see how far you can take it, see if you can find this one. This movie has a subversive quality that sets it apart from most of the rest on this list.
- DirectorPier Paolo PasoliniStarsPaolo BonacelliGiorgio CataldiUberto Paolo QuintavalleIn World War II Italy, four fascist libertines round up nine adolescent boys and girls and subject them to 120 days of physical, mental, and sexual torture.Notorious Italian film from the 70's which shows the brutalities and atrocities in WWII in graphic detail for all to hate. A seriously great film. The director was murdered for making it.
- DirectorHideshi HinoStarsShigeru SaikiMari SomeiMasami HisamotoAn artist rescues a mermaid in a sewer who develops bleeding sores all over her body, paints a portrait with her oozes and eventually disjoints her.Upsetting to say the least...
- DirectorRuggero DeodatoStarsRobert KermanFrancesca CiardiPerry PirkanenDuring a rescue mission into the Amazon rainforest, a professor stumbles across lost film shot by a missing documentary crew.The pre-cursor to all pseudo-docudrama horror flicks (ie Blair Witch) where we find 'lost' footage from an experiment.
- DirectorLars von TrierStarsWillem DafoeCharlotte GainsbourgStorm Acheche SahlstrømA grieving couple retreat to their cabin in the woods, hoping to repair their broken hearts and troubled marriage, but nature takes its course and things go from bad to worse.A new and VERY unsettling film with Willem Defoe. He is nuts for doing this one no pun intended.
- DirectorGaspar NoéStarsMonica BellucciVincent CasselAlbert DupontelEvents over the course of one traumatic night in Paris unfold in reverse-chronological order as the beautiful Alex is brutally raped and beaten by a stranger in an underpass tunnel.Absoultely disturbing vision of the destructive violence that stems from the crime of rape.
- DirectorJoe D'AmatoStarsTisa FarrowSaverio ValloneSerena GrandiA group of friends and a hitchhiker become stranded on a tourist island where they are stalked by a disfigured cannibalistic killer who is prowling the island after killing its residents.He's gotta be the only director who managed to jump between porn and horror so easily. This one features a lot of disgusting scenes, but one in particular that you cannot unsee.
- DirectorNico MastorakisStarsBob BehlingJane LyleJessica DublinA couple of perverted and maniac killers get loose on a Greek island.Take a shower when you're done this one.
- DirectorTun-Fei MouStarsGang WangDai Yao WuRunshen WangJapanese troops round up Chinese and Russian prisoners of war and take them to unit 731, where they're horribly tortured and experimented on to test new biological weapons.Another WWII atrocity film, this time about the Japs using the Chinese for human experiments.
- DirectorTakashi MiikeStarsKen'ichi EndôShungiku UchidaKazushi WatanabeA troubled and perverted family find their lives intruded by a mysterious stranger who seems to help find a balance in their disturbing natures.Supposedly this movie is a comedy. It must be the darkest comedy ever. Twisted and grim look at the possible future of reality tv in the modern age.
- DirectorJoe D'AmatoStarsKieran CanterCinzia MonrealeFranca StoppiA disturbed young taxidermist exhumes his recently deceased girlfriend, brings her body to his family villa and proceeds to embalm her corpse, with help from his strange housekeeper. But his bouts of insanity are just beginning.A good intro to the world of disturbing films. If you watch this and like, it, keep going. Without a doubt a fun scarring. Awesome soundtrack by Goblin. Poor dubbing makes it easier to handle. But it's still not for the faint-hearted.
- DirectorJohn McNaughtonStarsMichael RookerTracy ArnoldTom TowlesArriving in Chicago, Henry moves in with ex-con acquaintance Otis and starts schooling him in the ways of the serial killer.A grim and gritty look at a short period of time in the life of Henry Lee Lucas as he is living with Otis Toole, fellow scumbag whom, at one point, attempts to rape his own sister. Disgustingly realistic, like a documentary in parts.
