What's your most shocking scene in a film?

[colinlindsay]

What scene completely caught you by surprise in a film, leaving your breathless or exhausted or maybe dumbfounded.

 

[Nienor]

Ummm, one seen in Crash, with the Latino guy's daughter. But I don't want to spoil it, so yeah

 

[Saritaaa]

K well in the movie "House of Wax" I got really scared lolz even though people say that it's not a scary movie at all. At one point in the movie they're looking for the bad guy and he's right behind the window. So you know that he'll come out any moment but you're sort of waiting for it (I hate those moments!!). When he appeared in the window, I jumped up and punched my friend in the face. It wasn't intentional but when I jumped up my fist just went lol. Yeah, so now no one watches horror movies with me anymore

What? That scene was corny.

The scene in the club, in Irreversible, with the fire extinguisher.

And the pedophile sequence in Running Scared.

 

[CrusaderKing]

I'd have to say Darth Vader's revelation to Luke ranks up there. That's something no one expected and it was kept so top secret that the only members of the cast that knew about it were Mark Hamill and James Earl Jones.

I reckon Hard Candy when the girl operated on the guy and shredded the er, left-overs.

Eh, it wasn't so shocking. The girl's voice was annoying, though. Shocking to my ears!

Her calm and casual manner was pretty shocking to me considering what she was doing.

[Truffle]

the scene where Calypso uhm..lets say she just "comes apart" POTC

 

[PoundingMetal]

What? That scene was corny.

Eh, it wasn't so shocking.

antiarte, you gotta stop being so critical. Anyway, let me know if these are not shocking to you

Meet Joe Black - The initial impact when Brad Pitt gets hit by the car.

Silent Hill - When Pyramid Head rips the flesh off the woman.

 

[walant]

The first Saw movie when the guy gets up off the floor.....

So I can't give my opinion now?

Anyway, let me know if these are not shocking to you

Meet Joe Black - The initial impact when Brad Pitt gets hit by the car.

Silent Hill - When Pyramid Head rips the flesh off the woman.

No. I try to stay away from bad movies.

Janet Leigh in the shower in 'Psycho'.

 

[radhead]

The opening scene in "Exorcist 2: The Heretic" where the girl sets herself on fire.

 

[walant]

Psycho remains to be quite a scary film... Hitchcock was a genius at directing.

 

[colinlindsay]

Boy, we Christians have seen so horrific films.
I got upset with the transformation scene in "An American Werewolf in London".
Remember the scene in John Carpenter's "The Thing" in the days before digital effects where the head stretches itself off the burning corpse onto the floor, sticks out a tongue and pull itself under the table where, upside down it sprouts 6 legs and 2 eyes on stalks!! No wonder the character says "You've got to be ****** kidding!!!"
I didn't know whether to laugh or scream!

 

[Ladybug7]

I went to watch a movie with my husband. It was either "Scary Movie 1 or 2". I don't know which, since I only saw one movie. Anyway, we were watching it at the theater, and they actually showed a penis on there!! I was very shocked, and totally insulted! Needless to say, I never watched one of those stupid movies again!!

 

[Elife3]

There was one scene in The Exorcist where it seemed like the possessed girl was actually going to die during the exorcism.

 

[faith177]

we went to see an oprah movie in the theatre cant remember the name, however there was a incest scene that sickened the daylights out of me, in fact the movie was so disturbing we ended up walking out of it

 

[Theogonia]

Her calm and casual manner was pretty shocking to me considering what she was doing.

Digit

Yeah but she wasn't actually doing it. :\

A mistake in my opinion and it kept the film from being as rough as it could have been, but otherwise a good film.

Let me think.

There were a couple parts in John Carpenter's The Thing that had me going what the **** was that?

The rape in Blue Velvet.

The bit with the crucifix in The Exorcist.
