Honorable mention: Cuties
Honorable mention Martyrs
All of them
It feels like you guys redo this video like once a year
the interview and the exorcist
'Kids' was basically grim and realistic when it comes to adolescents doing drugs and committed crimes plus HIV.
So…….Degrassi but without Drake?
That came out wrong, great now they are watching me
I never an std so no
I watched Kids so many times when I was in high school. I absolutely despised Telly. I wanted to bitch slap him for being such a deplorable douche.
So basically being 19
Snuff (1976)
I Spit On Your Grave (1978)
Last House On the Left (72)
Human Centipede franchise
Yes
Absolutely
Yeah still wish I could remove the memory of witnessing human centipede , oh well
'The Exorcist ' may be one of the most controversial films, but it also became one of the greatest horror films ever made.
My all time favorite horror movie!
The Exorcist and The Shining, two of the best horror films of all time.
And I think the first horror film to be nominated and win a academy award.
One of the first horror books I read. Both it and the movie are amazing.
It's definitely on my top 10 list of all time favorite movies, not just horror movies
After seeing #1, I think Caligula should've made this list & also 'I Spit on Your Grave' given when they were released. Heck, even the original 'Hills Have Eyes' should be here too...IMO
Bruh I spit on your grave made me so uncomfortable watching that movie
Blue Velvet and Evil Dead as well
Caligula, definitely. Now that you mention it, I'm shocked it's not on here.
Actually, "Caligula" may have been shocking, but I doubt it was ever meant to be a serious historical piece.
It takes Stanley Kubrick to turn the most controversial movie ever into a masterpiece of cinema... Clockwork Orange is amazing as a film featuring both directing and acting genius.
Proper horrorshow.
The r*pe was horrible
The book and the movie had different ideas. In the book, it was the idea of rehabilitation failing and you were supposed to be horrified. In the movie you were supposed to celebrate.
Yeah an absolute classic, also love eyes wide shut for the intriguing weirdness
The Exorcist is the scariest horror film I've ever watched.
It doesn't need gore or jumpscares to be scary. It needs psychological torment, and uncomfortable imagery
What is also amazing is, The exorcist was nominated for best picture & Linda Blair for best actress.
The spider walk scene will forever live rent free in my mind 😂
Okaaaay -- but I mainly remenber "doober" giggles at the Drive-In theater...
Hmm I dunno. That barf scene I would consider gore. I’m not a 70s kid tho so that barf looks so fake to me but it was probably convincing beck then
I’m tired of all the jump scare hate. Yes you don’t need it for movies to be scary BUT it’s apart of the horror genre and there will always be room for it. It’s about execution
- A Clockwork Orange
- The Exorcist
- Apocalypse Now
- The Life of Brian
- The Last Temptation of Christ
It's amazing how many of these films are now considered cinematic masterpieces, within their respective genres!
And pink flamingos to me
Some say that salo is a masterpiece
Most of the people condemning those films when they were released hadn’t even seen the films. “Last Temptation” was branded blasphemy 30 years before Scorsese walked onto the set.
You forgot, cannibal holocaust
1973’s ‘The Exorcist’ is still one of my most favorite horror movies of all time.
Still the scariest movie I ever watched!
My mom made me watch it with her at 8. I think thats where I got my fear of priests and Nuns. Who knows 🤷. I wasn't afraid of them before
The Shining would like a word with you.
@@Thespeedrap I did think The Shining was a bit scary but nothing like The Exorcist.
@@bambifrazz ok everyone has a opinion but we're both right.
When the Archbishop of Canterbury was asked if he had seen Life of Brian he said "I don't need to go to a pig sty to know it stinks" Python put this quote on the video release of the film as an accolade.
I love “The Life of Bwian...”
Monty Python was brilliant!! They still make me cwack-up!! 🤪
@@corinnepmorrison1854
*Brian
I didn’t know that. That’s hilarious 😂
It's a silly movie but Silent Night, Deadly Night caused physical protests b/c the producers ran commercials of an axe-wielding Santa during prime time hours when kids could see it. Many irate parents.
Garbage day!
@@therunawaykid6523 It's been decades now but once a week when I take out the trash I have to say "Garbage Day!" I must do it. I must! There is no other option.
Out of all of the movies on this list,. A Serbian Film is the one that got me! I'm not easily disturbed by movies. But that one? Holy shit! The scene with his son near the end of the movie.....I just can't. I don't even want to think about it.
A Serbian Film is literally the only film that I regret watching due to how disturbing it was. I LOVE horror, but that one was wayyyyyyyyy too much
Same hear. This movie had me feeling like I was guilty of a crime just watching it! I broke the dvd into pieces immediately after watching!
I shut it off after the infant scene. That scene will ALWAYS haunt me!
@@onebobtwo
*here
Same bruh. Same. I've watched it twice. I thought it would be easier the second time. It wasn't.
A Clockwork Orange is in my top 10 favorite films of all time
Fun Fact about Salo: It started raining so production stopped.
The cast and crew met up with the cast and crew from the film "1900" which was also filming close by and they actually had a football game together.
I remember Life of Brian had warnings that it might offend those with religious beliefs. Someone in Ontario tried to have the theatre chain that was showing it charged with blasphemy. The case was thrown out.
The Exorcist(1973) is a horror classic
Apocalypse Now is a masterpiece
The fact that cannibal holocaust showed real footage of animal abuse sickens me
That's why I'll never watch it.
Yeah,that's the main problem I have with it too. It's a shame,cuz I like the film otherwise,but I wish all those animal deaths weren't in it. Those Amazonian tribes do actually do that in real life,tho. I think the director actually just filmed them killing their food in real life. It's been a while since I've seen it. But yeah,it's brutal to watch those scenes.
Bruh I STILL can't think about Antichrist without physically shuddering
I don’t even have a dong but just thinking of that one scene.. oof
@@KingOfGaymes Yeah, that scene was disturbing!
@@KingOfGaymes - What about when she cut her clit off?
Where can one watch this movie
@@christianepperly9246 - I’ve got the Blu-ray but it should be available on most streaming/download services. Failing that the DVD is very cheap.
500: My mom promised me not to watch The Exorcist and I can see why. My dad saw it in theaters as a kid, got nightmares as heck and my mom couldn’t go through it, she was a teenager at the time
A Clockwork Orange has been in my top 3 movies since I watched it at 10 years old. I have written more than a few analyses from every perspective. Classic art against torture.
You watched an R-Rated movie (which some people said should have been rated "X") full of graphic violence and gratuitous sex when you were only TEN YEARS OLD? Did your parents let you do that? If they did, then that's taking permissiveness to a whole other (and INEXCUSABLE) level.
Jesus, you watched it at 10 YEARS OLD?!?!
@@Ben-pd4wl I watched Kill Bill when I was 8 lol

@@NSHolt61 You're welcome! 😁
Thank you for the update, WatchMojo..!! 4:43 Apocalypse Now (1979) was an awesome movie to watch..!!
Surprised how few people have seen Kids. Really good movie.
Good movie but still is a bit controversial.
My sister's favorite movie, "The Clockwork Orange (1971)", the number one Most Controversial Movie Ever and that takes the top spot
Great list. I would add The Devils by Ken Russel which has never been released in its original cut, despite requests to the studio……it has been seen in very limited circumstances at film festivals, but the original version is unlikely to be released any time soon……
I have a dvd that’s as close to an integral cut as I’m gonna get. Surprised Sweet Movie didn’t make the list.
Excellent film.
I love The Devils! The set design and costumes,so good!
@@gibsonraymondaEww,Sweet Movie was interesting until it came to a part where they were eating tongue,or something,I can't quite remember and it just really turned my stomach and stopped watching it. I remember watching around the same time I watched Salo,and it grossed me out worse than Salo did.
The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and Her Lover gets overlooked in these videos.
Yup, I agree.
It’s a top 5 favorite. I remember the days of hitting the video store for tCtThW&hL, Wild At Heart, Boxing Helena… those were the days
Omg,I love that film!! So good
@@anal_enthusiastyes ❤️. There was something to be said for perusing a video store back in the day. It always makes me feel cozy and nostalgic thinking about it.
@@kittenface8577 I never got adjusted to all this streaming biz. My old library used to buy all of the Criterion Collection plus some other weirdo stuff. Most libraries share-ship in stuff for free from other libraries, so I saw a lot of obscure stuff I wanted to check out that way as well. Check out Belladonna of Sadness by Eiichi Yamamoto in 1973. It’s a Japanese animation film created from watercolor paintings. It wasn’t properly restored and released in the US until 2016.
I believe that the fact that Salos directors death came very quickly and suspiciously right after the film was completed said something about how controversial the film was.
I think he was murdered over Theorem moreso than Saló. He was a homosexual and a communist, but The Gospel According to Mathew is still one of the best movies about Jesus:
i remember having to watch the passion of the christ when i was like 8 for catechism 😂😂
Mel Gibson is a truly gifted actor and filmmaker...
That amounts to child abuse. But so is teaching children the slew of bad history and science that fanatics insist is sacred and unquestionable.
@@corinnepmorrison1854
And a possible Anti-Semite and racist!
Gibson a "truly gifted actor and filmmaker"? That's what a lot of people still say about D.W. Griffith, who, in addition to being a film director, was also a white supremacist who made the first motion picture epic, "The Birth Of A Nation" (1915), which, despite its cinematic achievements, was nothing but racist propaganda portraying black people as savages, and depicting the Ku Klux Klan as the heroes and saviors of the Post-Civil War South.
Brainwashed
I'm honestly not too surprised both Cannibal Holocaust and Serebian Film was on this list, the two most disturbing movies I ever seen.
I'm just glad two masterpieces were in the top two.
A Serbian Film was crazy sick and to think i saw it on youtube yearsss ago is wild
@@johnye2210 honestly I'm worried a lot of viewers are going to do the same thing I did and have the mentality of "how bad can it be?"
Believe me and I think I can speak for anyone who has seen it. Don't. Just don't.
@@NemmyBlade the newborn baby part really bugged me
Salo i think is one of the most disturbing movie i ever watched. Contracted too was horrible. Maggot coming outta her…. I died there🤮🤮🤮🤮
@@johnye2210 My jaw hit the floor when he beheaded a woman wife a machete while effing her doggie style.
I've never seen Salo nor Serbian Film, but after seeing their names on a "most disturbing movie" list, I got curious and looked up their plots on Wikipedia.
Never watching them.
Never.
Ditto. 😝Reading the PLOT made me nauseous.😝
Salo is a classic Italian film,and in my personal opinion,it's not quite as bad as it's made out to be. Yeah,there is some unsavory stuff in it,but it's watchable for the most part,by today's standards. Serbian Film,on the other hand,I have not seen it either and will never watch it. I know what happens in it,and I have absolutely no desire to watch that,I don't care if it's a well crafted film or not.
Yeah I refuse to watch that film alongside irreversible
The Passion of the Christ is IMO one of the greatest films of all time, easily one of the best of the '00s. That it did not win the Best Picture Oscar is the biggest travesty in the history of cinema.
Truth.
William Defoe went from staring in Spider-Man as green goblin to staring explicit movies 😂😂😂😂
Yeah and I didn’t realise he was in a film playing Jesus with David Bowie also in the film
A Clockwork Orange is actually part of 2001 universe along with Dr Strangelove and this movie is his last part of his visionary future trilogy. Really disturbing and controversial masterpiece.
Could make an entire list with just Lars Von Trier
I agree. Nymphomaniac is pretty controversial too. Especially that abortion scene.
I'm glad this is a list of actual films that were contested at the time of the original release. I see lots of times where people go back in time with today's values. We would probably have a video that goes on for days then.
I saw Apocalypse Now about 5 X's - a classic!
Had the hilarious moment of seeing crash in the theater n having a family sneak in with their kids only to have them run out about 7 minutes later after one of the more graphic scenes lol
The interview was actually a really good movie. I was surprised at how good it was.
I have a Pink Flamingos poster signed by Mink Stole and John Waters. Next to my autographed picture of Goober, it is one of my most prized possessions.
I have a signed copy of Cannibal Holocaust from the director.
awesome! I have an Odorama card (from Polyester) signed by John Waters.
I got to meet both of them years ago! It was fun.
Still annoyed I missed out on a signature from the legendary Brian blessed when I was in college
A WatchMojo video is the last place in which I would expect to hear Nikos Kazantzakis being mentioned... and in this one he is! I am delighted!
Didn't realise American Sniper was a Clint Eastwood film. I'll have to watch it, he's such a gifted filmmaker. ⭐️👈
A Clockwork Orange is Stanley Kubrick’s magnum opus and one of his best
In the early 1990's, a local TV station showed Apocalypse Now, commercial free, unedited and uncensored.
What station city , state was it please ?
@@akfreed6949
It's now KSEE 24, 24.1 over the air digital, Fresno, California.
@@DS-gg1pb up in Alaska back in the day , there was a few UHF channels run by baptist preacher Jerry Falwell . They were independent religious channels that ran 12 hours a day the other was as seen on TV infomercials . It was funny seeing Girls Gone Wild infomercials on a religious station at night . We had an Alaskan run music video channel in the late 80s which sadly died . They ran unedited music themed movies like Purple Rain & Pink Floyds The Wall . Anyway the religious owner , now retired was Jerry Prevo . He was on ABCs Night line arguing with the late Jerry Falwell .
Also worth mentioning:
Fight Club, Natural Born Killer, Child Play series,
3:27 I didn’t know that they adapted “Crash,” but you know what, now I want to see it, honestly… I don’t know if it could possibly be worse than the book, right?
Divine was one of the inspirations for Ursula in the little mermaid
The MAIN inspiration.
Fatal Attraction, The Silence of the Lambs and Philadelphia were fairly controversial at the time of their release.
I was about ready to say that you BETTER put A Clockwork Orange on this list! ;)
It took me way too long to get around to Life of Brian... classic. 😂
Borat is still one of the funniest movies ever.
Also if you make a part 2 I would suggest Ken Park, Gummo, August Underground and the Bunny Games.
Gummo was sick.
They did make a part 2.
Bunny Games? ah, Funny Games
I’d also include South Park: bigger, longer & uncut, fritz the cat and song of the south
@@MegaMaxiepad Bunny Games, it's a pretty sick movie
The Exorcist will always be one of my favorite horror movies of all time. It freaked me out the first time I watched it
I always thought Kubrick’s adaptation of Lolita would be more controversial than A Clockwork Orange. Surprising.
Willem Dafoe was in a couple of these listed films!
Caligula and Basic Instinct come to mind as possible adds to this list.
I'm surprised Dogma didn't make the list.
::Spoilers ahead:: Clockwork Orange and The Exorcist are Disney movies compared to "A Serbian Film". A newborn is raped right after it's born, and a man unknowingly has sex with his drugged child son, I could go on. Did I miss something from those other movies that's more controversial than that?
Look at spookyrices channel he covers disturbing movies. Really interesting but dark. He's great at it and some of the backstory
spoiler alerts are a good thing, just so you know
@@MegaMaxiepad Sorry my bad. I'll add a disclaimer
Serbian film feels too edgy. Clockwork orange is more subtle about violence and is actualy a really great movie.
Serbian film was never as well kniwn as Clockwork orange, and that makes Clickwork orange more impactful and controversial. Plus the movie inspired many real life events of teenagers breaking into people's houses and acting like Alex.
@@PolishGod1234
*known
“Take him out”
“……like for drinks??” Hahahaha
"The life of Brian" its Brilliant.
Agreed
In cannibal Holocaust, the cannibal stuff was a non issue really. It was that the missing people were seen as victims, the cannibles as savages for over half the movie. Then at the end, when they watch the footage they saw that the cannibals were just getting revenge for what the film crew did to their tribe.
The issue was mostly behind the scenes when they suspected the guy who made the movie actually killed the actors (he didn't thank god) all because of the animal deaths being real...yeah animals were harmed in the making of that film sadly.
16:43 I read somewhere in the Salo film that the 'poo' for the 'poo eating scene' was made with melted chocolate and marmalade of some flavor or another.
The Last Temptation of Christ is Martin Scorsese’s magnum opus
As a Serb, I have to say that Serbian Film is a metaphor, wild metaphor but still... and look! It's right, people love controversy, it made the movie stand out. Btw, as long as we are there, I would put Martyrs (french not usa) on this list. Scarred me for life.
I was also looking for Martyrs but it was not here.
They should add it because it's very underrated. The ending is so profound as well.
Yep. Martyrs should be top 3
metaphor for what? sounds like a excuse to make a controversial splatter movie and call it art afterwards
@@chaos-fk6fs Director said it's a metaphor for how government in Serbia f*cks people in the country, hence the title. Although, there are really some nasty people in Serbia. As someone who helps animals I get threats like I am a common criminal. So yes, Serbian film indeed. Can you take me away from here??? Please?
There is almost NO "graphic violence" in Reservoir Dogs...it's mostly implied. At NO TIME do we see Madsen's character's knife touch the cop's ear. It's all in the audience's mind.
There is an alternate take where you do see the ear get cut off (it can be found as a deleted scene on the DVD). Tarantino decided that panning away was more effective, plus the effect really wasn't very good.
How come "Straw Dogs" (1971) isn't on this list? Managed to get banned for 18 years under the 1984 Video Recordings Act.
I watched cannibal holocaust when I was 9 years old. Felt weird and somewhat traumatized.
I know animal cruelty rape of that tribal girl got impaled killing a baby beating up a woman crazy but the guy who played Alan yates I don't feel sorry for he deserved what he got but Fay no
That commenter who said he watched "The Exorcist" when he was ten years old was bad enough. But you watched "Cannibal Holocaust" (full of violence and cannibalism) when you were only NINE?
WTF!!! 🤯🤬😡😤
Your parents must have been sick in the head to let you see a movie like that!
@@michaelpalmieri7335 I should have said that I haven't watched the full film. What I can remember was that my mother started watching it alone when I was playing outside. When I went home I saw the scene where the girl was brutally being (censored word) on the river. It wasn't pleasant so I asked my mom what was happening and she told me what it was. She actually had me play outside again as she felt that I was not comfortable watching it due to some nudity and brutality. When I came back again it was already the ending where the protagonist realized who the true cannibals were.
She then lent the cd to one of our neighbors who is the father of my cousin. When DVD was rampant in those days, usually what the neighborhood do is gather inside a house and watch a movie. Even some had to be just outside the house to peep.
I watched some parts past the scene mentioned above when group watching happened. I was with some of my cousins, uncles, aunts, and some adults. When they laughed and mocked the brutality scene where the perpetrators got their karma, I also laughed with my cousins but still, I can't hide the fact that it felt disturbing watching it even though I watched it with a group of people. My cousins and I were aged seven, eight, and 2 nines(including me).
I'm from the Philippines by the way.
Crash(1996) is David Cronenberg’s masterpiece
that's quite an indictment of the guy's work... The Fly is good though
most of his movies are masterpieces: Scanners, Videodrome, Rabid, Naked Lunch... repeat viewings get better and better.
@@jeanlove8510 I know
It's a good one. I've always wanted to read the J.G. Ballard novel too,but it's kind of hard to find,at least it used to be. But Cronenberg is one of the greats. Senior, anyway. I've watched a couple from his son. Nowhere near as good or interesting as Cronenberg Sr.
@@jeanlove8510I will always watch videodrome whenever it’s on tv just so weird but watchable
All movies directed by Oliver Stone are the most controversial movies ever! He alters historical events and claims his depictions of them as if they really happened, but they didn’t happen the way he presented them at all!
Speaking of Malcolm McDowell, you left out “Caligula” (1979). I also would have given honorable mention to “Twentynine Palms” (2003).
Last tango in Paris aka I can’t believe it’s not butter.
I was surprised "Antichrist" was passed without cuts in my home country Germany back then - I still think it was because of its "artsy" style and the fact Lars von Trier directed it.
I imagine Pasolini's "Salo" wasn't on here because there were no scenes that could pass RUclips censors....
No,there are plenty of scenes they could have shown from it. It isn't absolute constant graphic obscenity. It's actually nicely filmed.
But it was on the list.
The dead baby scene in “Trainspotting “ was awful
When I first saw Clockwork, back in '71, I thought it was a masterpiece and that it was the beginning for the future of movies. The violence was satirized and I thought that was obvious, but the surprise was that people didn't like that. Instead, it turned out that audiences preferred the more realistic violence depicted in the movies which followed, and is even more popular today.
How old were you in 1971?
This is why you should never judge a movie by its cover. Usually, it's a book.
Some of these are also some of the greatest films of all time too, btw.
In the Realm of the Senses?
Apocalypse Now is a masterpiece
So y'all would forget Natural born killers fucking perfect
I've seen movies far more shocking than A CLOCKWORK ORANGE. I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE was much worse and so were the remakes, which featured sequels, and all of them were absolutely gratuitous.
The Exorcist was a very sad movie to me; something took over this woman's daughter...how extremely sad and scary is that...not scary as in horror, just a MOTHER'S nightmare
Thank you I love A Clockwork Orange. I love this channel
Pretty wild that people still get upset at works of fiction for whatever reason
Well...
Atleast We Got An Reservoir Dogs Crossover Level In Payday 2 The Videogame.
I’m surprised Last House on the Left didn’t make the list.
Of the movies on this list, the only ones I've seen more than once--and approve of their artistry--are "Apocalypse Now" and "A Clockwork Orange"--the former for its updating of Conrad's novel in the context of Vietnam, and the latter for its stylized and politicized violence.
I’m surprised that The Passion of the Christ had an R rating, I thought it would’ve been a harder rating especially in the scourging scene
My undergrad housemate had to watch Salo for his Pasolini class; I sat down to watch and made it through to the end. I was fairly disturbed (my roomie pointed out he didn’t force me to stay), but honestly it was the ending that was the most difficult to endure. I would have walked away if that scene was in the middle of the film.
Well Apocalypse Now is my favourite film ever. Simply ethereal filmmaking
499: From this list, I’ve never seen any of these movies but I have a huge feeling that my cousins did
I've not seen numbers 13, 12, 10 though saw a clip when I studied film at university, number 9 I know of it's infamous scene, as with number 8 and discussed some things about film at university, know about the controversy of number 7, not seen 6, 5, 4 and 3.
Read that the actors on Salo weren't actually abused, and the actors playing the "teens" thought the film was pretty goofy while filming it (mostly because of how it was shot). No one was abused, tortured, and it was of course all a movie with consenting actors.
What's more interesting is that the widest release the film saw was in Sweden.
Also Martin Scorsese and Alec Baldwin were amongst several others who actually didn't want the film banned claiming it had "artistic merit" while also being extremely difficult to watch.
How on earth could to you put clock work orange before Serbian film!?????
Cannibal Holocaust is one of the very few horror films that seriously scared me. It's one of my favourites in the genre, but it still really gets to me after what must be a dozen watches.
I really want to re watch it,but it's SO hard to watch the animal deaths. I think I'll just try and fast forward thru those.
@@kittenface8577 yeah, don't think it would ruin the film much if you fast forwarded through those scenes. I hate them as well.
-Kids is my all time favorite movie. It's the film that has reasoned the most with my life.
-Salo is a film that at the time was irreverent. But today the scenes of torture seem nice.
-The Grand Bouffe/Blow-Out (1973) is also a great and very controversial film.
-battleship Potemkin is a great controversial movie too.
If that's true than you must have been one piece of s**t in your teens.i hate hate hate that movie and everything it stands for.
@@ericseitzler81
Oh no, I had a very happy and full childhood. Friends, loves and yes also shits. Skateboarding, basketball, weed, girlfriends. Spending afternoons in a friend's apartment listening to MTV. Flirting with girls, doing stupid things. It is more between 18 and 25 that some have had serious drug-related accidents.
@@trorisk well I hope you are doing well now.
The scenes of torture seem nice???
I still can’t believe that the dude in Passion got struck by lightning while playing Jesus. I’m not even religious, but I find that insane
No we didn't forget one of my favorite contentious films on the DVDs or on Hulu or on Netflix or on TV or on Apple TV like The Interview and Reservoir Dogs and American Sniper and Crash and Apocalypse Now and Borat and The Last Temptation of Christ and The Exorcist and A Clockwork Orange
18. This movie was the best of 2014. But that fake baby though...yikes.
14 & 11. This film was hilarious to me
7. I liked this powerful film but I don't think I could sit through it again.
2. Awesome horror movie
1. Loved this movie
The Passion of The Christ is brutal and not for the squeamish
I’m surprised that “Caligula” wasn’t even mentioned on this list, considering its raw and explicit content.
Not sure how Terrifier isn't on there
