Finally, one of these disturbing book icebergs that isn’t just “uhh this book is disturbing” and then moves on with no elaboration

WARNING, SPOILERS: Let's Go Play at the Adams' is a sadistic romp pretending to deal with disturbing-but-necessary themes such as the cruelty of children, the relationship of torturer and victim, the power imbalance inherent in adult-child dynamics, peer pressure, etc. It doesn't deal deeply with any of those issues, but it utilizes them as props to assault readers with a story of torture, r@pe, cruelty, murder, and impunity crowned by the five young psychopaths finding a scapegoat they kill so as to successfully get off the hook for murdering a woman. I cannot see anyone "enjoying" this novel except those who get all tingly at sadism. The author fortunately died shortly after the publication of his "masterpiece," so he didn't have a chance to regale us with more samples of his "genius." He did not write any other fiction, as far as I know, so that is another plus. Sadism has always existed among humans and, at times, the novel reads like a cheap approximation de Sade's worst excesses, or like the novelization of one of the many violent, graphic adult movies from the 1970's that, in the next decade, became impossible to produce and film legally. Those adult films were honest, at least. Nobody pretended they were adding anything to the 7th Art, or to thespian nuances, dialogue intricacies, or juxtapositions of story arcs. Let's Go Play at the Adams' plays at being literature and, as usual, plenty of readers and critics took the bait and have elevated this sad, angry bag of vomit into something "respectable." It isn't. It's just the last, cruel swan song from an author who seems to have written it because he just couldn't bring himself to live it. If so, we are fortunate.

4chan: We are the masters of shitposting! William Burroughs: Hold my heroin needle.

"Wiesel" is pronounced "vai-sill", I think.

I skimmed through _120 Days of Sodom_ out of morbid curiosity. I am grateful that I do not remember what I read, because it gave me a _shit ton_ of psychic damage. It was like reading the Necronomicon. But what disturbed me the most was that it was written as if it all came from personal experience.

Lol Kapoat

i saw novel on a lpwer level called the drift and im like its not that bad at all. The girls he adored was gross af The boy in stryped pajamas could never happen because the familie were unaware what was happing and you couldnt hang out by a gate or any fence

I love this iceburg series! You should do more 😊

where did bro go

I'm super late but hey, thank you for this! I'm a 23 yo woman, and see mostly other young women recommending horrors/thrillers.. I've noticed that I must be more desensitized than them, because what they find disturbing is mild to me. No hate!! It is what it is. I'm so happy to have finally found a different and decent perspective. Men do tend to have a thicker skin with this sort of thing. Anyway, thanks again!

I'm an avid horror reader, The Girl Next Door is the only book that has made me tap out because I couldn't handle it

Have you read all of these?

Currently attempting to read every single book on this iceberg. Currently at 79% with about 60 books to go.

Just a note: you got the wrong version of "The Room", the book listed on the iceberg is the book by Hubert Selby Jr

i read 'a child called it.' the mom literally stabbed him, made him eat his infant brother's feces, locked him in a bathroom with ammonia and bleach mixed together in a bucket (created a dangerous gas), made him drink ammonia, bleach, and dish soap, and broke his arm and then lied about it to the doctor. among other things

No JG Ballard ? Crash would be in the Deep

Great video but its pronounced ellie wai-zel

this is sooo besides the point of anything but this guy is FINE. like so attractive. gr8 vid too tho

May I know name of the music in background? Thank you

How is fight club on this list? It's one of my favorite books, but hardly "disturbing". Palahniuk's "lullaby" or "haunted" would easily be better options for this list.

The wisdom tooth story is hard to believe. I was eating hamburgers less than 8 hours after mine were cut out, and I had general anesthesia- not just novocaine and nitrous oxide. Even dry sockets heal faster than that (2 weeks) usually, as rare as they are!

4:09 You're mispronouncing inexorable. You added an entire syllable that isn't there AND emphasized the wrong syllable.

Bro, if you're going to do this, please learn how to pronounce words? Tf is inadsorbable?

Please come back bro

Giggity lol

I mean, Pet Sematary came out before it happened, but Stephen King was actually hit by a car and almost died.

I cant find these books anywhere!

Our teacher showed us a clip of the last reel of the BW film of LoTF, I was about 9 or something. I was a bit traumatised by it, but when I realised my parents had the book, I just couldn't stop myself. Never go on a school jaunt if the choir's involved!

Fallen FLoyd: (explains white torture) Sad Beige Moms: oh em gee that's my baby's nursery

Dude where did you go?!

The room was a brilliant book, as was the movie. It was moving. Not a thing to bring disgust (except for the man that kidnapped the mother). It was a well done story.

Good video.

Weed species is inspired by pual bernardo and karla homolka.

I want to read the bighead.

I read In the Miso Soup.... It's like "Collateral" With Tom Cruise and Jamie Fox... But instead of a hitman, he is stuck with a psychotic murderer...

In Let's Go Play... what the kids do to the babysitter is half the horror. Why they do it is the other half of the horror. I read this last year and it still haunts me.

3:13 the reason for so many trucks is because pet semetary was based off a real life event where one of kings sons nearly got hit by a truck.

Also, why do so many extreme horror stories have such a emphasis on shit. Is it because people are grossed out by it or is it because the authors are coprophilia loving motherfuckers?

Cows is just pure insanity. 🤣

The way this series feels so plagiarized is what's truly disturbing

If Slaanesh was an author:

come back king we miss you

It's pronounced l-e we-sell

Nobody's mentioned martin amis's earliest works " Dead Babies" and " Success" which introduced him to the world very much as the l'infant terrible before he eventually wound his way to intellectual emanant gris. These books will fuck you up and I ain't playin'. Nabokov's Ada was just as pervy as lolita as it's about an incestuous brother and sister who plot to make the baby sister part of a thrupple. Don't forget The End Of Alice and Geek Love, either. Honorable mention to The Collector, which depicts the inner monologues of both the demented incel kidnapper and his victim throughout her captivity. For the intellectuals among you, Kafka's Metamorphosis will instil in you a proper fear of capitalism run amok and some strangely ambivalent sympathies for vermin.

The room has a movie as well

i'm ngl, i'm not at all one of those edgy "nothing phases me" ppl, but what the hell is ROOM doing that low on the list??? below stuff like cows, american psycho, haunted, etc? ik it's all subjective but there's basically nothing graphic in room and it's on the bottom of the iceberg??????

When will you return?

I can’t believe you didn’t put Hogg on any of these lists, it’s one of the most Disgusting books ever written.

Blood Meridian has by far one of the best and scariest villians I've ever read about, the Judge. Such a good book.

Dude it's been a while, you still here?
