Sickest horror movies ever made

[Rassilon]

I think a film needs to have power rather than gore. A powerful film can stay with you far longer than gory scenes of rubber heads getting chopped off. Anyone can make a film with lot's of gore and zero storyline. Take Texas Chainsaw Masscare. Hardly any gore but it lingers with you after you view the film.
It's like a garage death metal band....yeah your angry and I can't hear a word your saying, yes your brutal because you don't have any melody but your not anywhere near as powerful and dark as Alice in Chains singing We Die young.

for eg masterbating someone of with a light bulb then breaking it inside her and then get asked to shag her not exactly in good taste realy there bad taste and just plain wrong....Not saying my opinions are right or wrong or people have to agree or disagree but surely you must have watched a film at some point and thought they have oversteped the mark slightly or the film has grossed you out you felt disgusted or dirty watching it..Surely there must be a film out there that from what you read or you know a certain scene has put you off it ...
(Anyhow ill shut up and finish my rant)

Inside is indeed an amazing exercise in tension, as for "overstepping the mark", i'm not really well placed to say one way or the other, yes elements of Srpski, Snuff 102, Life & Death of a Porno Gang were unpleasant to watch, but as it's all just FX so what?
I had far more trouble with the treatment of cats in MBTS etc, i've seen plenty of documentaries (Titticut Follies, The Animals Film etc) and don't really see them as "entertainment".....educational, maybe.
Yet again, most people wouldn't watch L&DOAPG for fun, but i DO recommend it as i always said and will keep saying that it was a different thing to Srpski.
End of line......

FOFAB and MERMAID IN A MANHOLE are good
sfx are good, but nothing effects me as to being sick etc

I have managed to watch the rest of the Guinea Pig series and i must say i expected more from them. Not as shocking or sick as i have heard. FOFAB stands way above the rest for me. Im a little let down if im honest.

Don't forget that they were made about 20 years ago

Try and look at them from a historical perspective

Seen all of those apart from the porn ones and Niku Daruma (never heard of it).

Many are tedious rubbish, but there's a fair few I consider classics (Aftermath, Emmanuelle in America, Cannibal Holocaust, Ilsa She Wolf of the SS (which is tame anyway), A Serbian Film, In a Glass Cage, Nekromantik 1 & 2 and Salo). All terrific films.

Niku Daruma = AKA Tumbling Doll Of Flesh, AKA Psycho Snuff Reels

would also add Girl Hell, Mu-Zan-E , Suicide Dolls, Womans Flesh:My Red Guts and Blood Sisters to the list

[Frankie Teardrop]

A random list featuring varying degrees of sickness:

ALL NIGHT LONG 1-3
GUTS OF A VIRGIN / ENTRAILS OF A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN etc.
FORCED ENTRY
FEMMES DE SADE
FETUS
HOUSE OF FLESH MANNEQUINS
BEAUTIFUL GIRL HUNTER
KILLER SNAKES
MERMAID IN A MANHOLE
REGORE-GITATED SACRIFICE

There are many way, way 'sicker' movies out there ie all the Daisuke Yamanouchi numbers listed above. Probably the harshest of the Ero Guros take first prize. Strange when something like 'Cannibal Holocaust' can come to seem quaint... somehow, that shouldn't happen. The most searingly bleak films, however, don't rely on in yer face depravity. 'Salo', 'In a Glass Cage', even something like 'Threads' base their soul shuddering impact on deeply sad psychological truths.
