Hello Friends. Due to what we’re talking about the chances of this video getting demonetized are very high. The only reason videos like this are viable for me is because of my patrons, and so if you’ like to help keep these videos weird and spooky, you can do so here: www.patreon.com/Supereyepatchwolf As ever, if you don't have the means to contribute (or just aren't up for it for whatever reason) that is 100% totally fine, it still means a lot to me you’d just check out this video.

hearing about real life situations like “The Baby,” are horrific. where people are abused so badly as kids that they never mentally age past a certain point.
Me and my partner go through momentary age regression time to time when stressed over whatever we are worried for. It sucks that it’s caused by trauma.
its more common than youd think. i was sa'd when i was 12 and wver since then i have a hard time acting my age and often regress back to a 12 year old. it fucking sucks. but thats life
I've seen some comedies and horror movies that can only have their genres identified based off the soundtracks and sound effects. Add a laugh track to many horror B movies and you get comedies while some absurdist and dark comedies could easily be horror films if you took out the laugh track. Even some Sitcoms could easily be horror movies with an audio change. Add a sinister score and remove the laugh track and Two and A Half Men is darker then most horror comedies. Remove the cutesy voices and Boku No Pico goes from disturbing to truly horrifying
it is, the more you repeat it in your head, the more you realize just how far gone they must be -that you would even notice the meals being somewhat normal 🤔
I was in an abusive work situation and lived through it by obsessing about the movie Silent Hill. In that movie the protagonist, Rose, goes through literal hell for her daughter. I tried to mimic her strength to survive my work hell so I could support and care for my own children. It got me through till I could escape.
The most disturbing horror movie I’ve seen is watching a man livestream shenmue 3 only to have his soul and hopes of the series being revived crushed realizing he wasted his time waiting for it all these years.
Fun fact: the whole Satan sequence in The Adventures of Mark Twain is based on Twains book The Mysterious Stranger. Highly recommended to anyone who wants a darker type of religious, existential horror.
Absolutely loved that book! The Adventures Of Mark Twain is such a good movie that I just discovered too... I almost started screaming in excitement when he started talking about it!
@@sleepingchaser You know I found a pile of DVDs of The Adventures of Mark Twain at the dollar store, along low-budget Christian films and other movies that were just crap and they made too many of. Made me sad. Also a million copies of Robocop on Blu Ray for whatever reason. Of course I bought one.
@@pickles3128 yeah, I’m all too familiar with the kind of Christian movies you’re talking about... seen my fair share of them. It’s a shame how forgotten that movie is. I recently bought my copy on Amazon, and it’s probably going to be one of those movies I watch every couple years, cause it’s just so good, and as a Mark Twain fan growing up, it feels like it was somehow made for me specifically, in a weird way.
Isabella, in the movie Possession, later stated it took *a year* for her to overcome the trauma of that Subway scene..I will say though, the ending still baffles me 😕

i still think the remake is better i mean its by the same director and writer Michelle Hanike (Amour, The White Ribbon) it was just updated technically and imo had a better cast but other than that it is the exact same movie, so i happen to like it more
@@alilweeb7684 exactly... she had connections with people in the show biz. That’s how a lot of famous people (not all) get to where they are. Without knowing people in the business, it’s hard to make it tbh. It’s not a bad thing though! But it’s just harder to make it without knowing some people. For example, I wanna pursue music full time. However to get there, I’m gonna have to do lots of gigs, advertise my stuff, get people to know my name, be on social media constantly, etc. but it’s really difficult to do that stuff without some people to help. It’s good to have connections so you’re not just alone and ranking up 10 views every day. To be like, VEVO famous though, you definitely know some people already and have lots of skill and talent. (Not to say Katy Perry is only famous because of her connections, but that connections definitely help :))
You wouldn't believe how scared I was of Disney's Pinocchio as a child. I'm so traumatised by it that even now I remember it as one of the creepiest movies I've ever seen.
for me pinnochio was scary in himself. dude we as kids live our lives rooting for the protagonist and learning AND idealising them but this lad was hella dissapointing in himself to me , like lieing all the time and getting into such dangerous situations coz of it and hell his long nose everytime he lied . even tho the story is teaching us morals but the movie is not for sensitive kids or like me who used to root to the stories and the characters .
My parents bought Watership Down for me as a child because they thought it was just another cute cartoon to keep me occupied. That suffocation scene was so disturbing to me, I couldn't get it out of my mind. I began to think of how the rabbits felt and how terrifying it must have been for them desperately trying to find a way out, dead bodies blocking every tunnel. I think it was one of the first moments of strong empathy I had as a very small child.
I remember seeing that scene and the deep disgust I felt for the British countryside in which I live, how this was just a chore that had to be done to maintain land for human interest. It made me think so hard about how we view animals and wildlife. Very disturbingly in the UK a lot of laws to protect ecosystems have been revoked and challenged for industrial interests in various ways, so this scene feels disturbingly relevant. It reminds me to be angry, to not let this happen.
@@misterantrobus I agree! I read the book for class when I was 14 and it is so disturbing it’s one of those books that just numb you out for the rest of the day
My Mom borrowed the DVD for it from a library along with a little, violent show about forest animals called The Animals of Farthing Wood (and I guess Harry and his Bucket Full of Dinosaurs but that wasn’t scary). My sister was completely and utterly terrified by them, though she already was creeped out by older animation, and all I saw were the cute woodland animals. The violence did not phase me. In retrospect, I can see a pattern in my earliest memories of deep sadness and empathy I had from watching stuff. Wreck it Ralph’s scene where Ralph betrays Venelope, a documentary about owls in which the mother is forced to feed her weakest child to the rest of her family, Anakin murdering the younglings (although that scene has been memed so much that I can’t help but laugh when I see it nowadays), a film in which a man kills his son in the name of God…the pattern appears to be that younger me had an intense feeling of dread from watching children be betrayed by adults. I suppose there’s just an inherit helplessness in a situation like that- a type of feeling which clearly unnerved me.
Great book. A wondrous and sometimes frightening story that really puts you through the experience of being the "other". The rabbits not only must survive predators, but also humans, who seem bent on rabbit murder for incomprehensible reasons. The rabbits try to explain it all with a complex mythology that emphasizes the importance of clever observation and quick action for survival. Had a huge impact on me. Bigwig is my spirit animal 🐰💕
I watched Last Summer as a child on a cruise ship that would repeat the same set of movies on a channel throughout our expedition. I don't know who on earth approved of the movie, playing not just once but MULTIPLE times throughout our stay on the ship, but the ending completely gutted me. As a kid i didn't really understand what had happened at the end until searching up the film's synopsis, but i cried after realizing what they had done to the girl. I wonder if the movie was inspired by a personal event that was as jarring as the one the film portrayed.
I did some research, and the movie was based off of a novel of the same name, written by I believe a detective, or someone who worked in criminal activity. So could be something like that. He wrote a sequel too.

it's funny to me because i'm chilean and when i was twelve, the creators of the movie came to my school and played a chunk to my class. we all left the theater a bit traumatized, because of the unsettling imagery but also because the topic (torture in the middle of a dictatorship) hits close to home to all chileans.
As a Chilean, born and raised, as well as the classmate of the nephew's guy who made 'Casa Lobo' I must point out the underlying topics of torture and kidnap regrading the period of political haunt we lived during the regime of dictator Augusto Pinochet during the 80's, particularly related to a certain psychopath and torturer that lived and ravaged people in my country. Certainly an interesting take on the real horrors of our reality. Great video, SuperEyepatch, love your content. Keep it up!
@@ahmedio5289 Since 1961, Paul Schafer, an ex army official and known nazi living in the south of Chile, administered a settlement in the region called 'Colonia Dignidad'. There, he and his peers exploited people of all ages, subduing them to torture and abuse. Afterwards, when general Augusto Pinochet took over the country and became the head of a dictatorship that lasted from 1973 until 1990, the place continued to be used as a den for torturing prisoners, political and otherwise, captured people and abused children. The movie depicts a girl that escaped the place but continues to suffer from trauma and the horrors she lived there
@@WillCorvinus No tenía idea que esta película (de la que me vengo enterando recién con este video) fuera chilena. Por lo general trato de no ver nada que trate sobre este tema en particular, por que siento que a veces es sólo recoger la manzana más cercana cuando hay muchos otros temas que podrían existir en el cine chileno, pero siempre eligen lo más fácil para llamar la atención. Sin embargo, cuando lo presentan como esta película, más sutil y con más metáforas, no puedo evitar considerar la idea de verla, pero creo que no saldré muy bien de esta D: Gracias por la explicación, quizás algún día le dé una oportunidad.
@@Bane_Amesta Qué hermoso ver una chilena fan de SuperEyePatch! Sí, la peli es bien densa. Siento que, como dices, resulta más o menos siempre en ir a la segura con el tema, pero esta se luce con la animación y las escenas más surrealistas.
hey i'm from chile! the casa lobo is inspired by the horrors inside paul schaffer's cult like colony where children were constantly molested and abused. the main character is re living her traumas and the wolf is basically paul schaffer talking to her. i saw it when it first came and i was amazed. it is so good, and i'm glad that you gave this movie a shoutout because chilean cinema is not often talked about. great video!
19:33 “Those at the fringes of society are most vulnerable to the insidious forces that lie beyond it” literally one of the most poetic things I’ve ever heard. I’m actually going to remember this line for the rest of my life. It helps me understand something that’s confounded me for my whole life.
I put this film on my watch later list after seeing this video. Later I saw it came back to this video after having watched it, and I'm struck by just how much this line fits the exact impression I got from the movie.
@@thisrandomdude_ I grew up in the projects in the Bronx. Half my family were in gangs. I have cousins in jail for life. My dad was addicted to heroine. I say all this to try and give you in as few words as possible a perspective into my emotional state when I ask this question. one of my cousins in jail for double murder was also the cousin who would bike to my house every day when I was a kid to help my mom when my dad wasn’t around. He was only 16. My dad, he would help everyone in the neighborhood. One time the cashier gave us too much change back by mistake and he made us get back on the bus for 40 minutes to return the money. Mind you we were on welfare at the time lol. He would run out in the rain to help someone change their tire. Literally give you the shirt off his back. I’ve seen real evil. And I’ve seen pure genuine kindness and goodness. And it’s always bothered me. The question is hard to put in words even now. But I guess it’s as simple a, why do good people do bad things? Or maybe more specifically, why is there so much suffering and cruelty in the hood? What makes a 16 year old pick up a gun and shoot someone? I’ve thought a lot about this since this video and while I still don’t have a satisfying answer it’s helpful to at least have this perspective of vulnerability. That the evil doesn’t come from us but is right outside, psychological, social, and economic forces preying on the vulnerable.
Yeah, i remember it as a young boy. Something seemed so off for me. Alweys felt this feeling dread in the teens eyes. Plus the very very intimit relationshit beteewn those 3
@@TheCostimen I don’t know if the movie was supposed to be as creepy/scary as it is. I haven’t seen it yet but I want to, and it’s hard trying to find the movie online. Is it actually a horror movie? Or is it really a drama/coming of age story?
@@Eldorrado452 the film is definitely meant to be creepy and unsettling. Eyepatch Wolf does a great job of describing it in this video. Why IMDb and other websites list it as a “coming of age” film is pretty confusing to me because the film is definitely going for an upsetting tone. The footage in this vid of the (100% real) bird repeatedly smashing into the ground is enough to demonstrate that

I mean he’s not wrong, Satan is an angel. He went against God which resulted in his banishment from Heaven to Hell becoming a fallen angel. The dialogue does make it kind of funny though
@@SugarRush1990 Satan was a servant of God/Yahweh (re: Job) prior to its reinvention as Lucifer the fallen Cherubim within Christian theology. This iteration of Satan in particular is based on Twain's character Satan from his short story The Mysterious Stranger. In that short, Satan represents a more existential motif, a personification of the end of consciousness, the perhaps meaningless of existence and even the strange benevolence of non-existence. He's not really an evil character in the short, just strange and unknowable (much like the concept of ceasing yo exist/nothingness is).
2:31 "...who begins to suspect that his mother and father are not ordinary people, but that the meals that they are feeding him are..." that sentence made me lag for some seconds until I got it
As a kid, young enough I barely knew how TVs worked. I turned on the TV in a hotel. As I was channel surfing I caught a glimpse of something that left me horrified for years. A scene of gore, blood, and body horror. I turn off the TV. Years later I’m an adult. I’m watching a movie and then, the scene happens. I realize this, this is the scene that scarred me so many years ago. And that movie was Hot Fuzz. I really like Hot Fuzz, its a pretty smart horror comedy, maybe even the best of its trilogy. I find it poetic that what was trauma earlier in life, transformed into comedy.
@VMKjelly in fairness that scene is really gory, I think any child would be traumatised by seeing it. How valuable to have that experience reframed later in life though!
@@pundertalefan4391 Difficult to tell off top of the hat, but many CGI animated movies and family movies have some creepy innuendos and suggestions of violence.
I don't like the horror genre, I can't like it. I'm very paranoid and disturbing imagery has kept me up at night with anxiety several times in the past. But, for some reason, I love watching you talk about horror. Hearing you talk about what makes something scary is just so fascinating.
I completely agree! He makes me want to get into it.... But I know my limitations, even though I foolishly step out of my boundaries every now and then.....and I definitely regret it.
@@KatieandTyler he also made the end of the video so wholesome! I think not to overstep our boundaries with horror movies would be more likely if we are enjoying them with company
OH MY GOD, I have been looking for the last movie - Last Summer - ever since I saw it when I was a little kid!! I don't have words to describe how much this movie absolutely disturbed me. The night that I saw it, my parents had taken me to a horror movie earlier that day (I believe it was Drag Me to Hell, but I'm unsure) because they were under the pretense it wasn't scary. I was too scared to sleep in my own bed, so I made a pillow fort on the floor of my mom's room. She left the tv on and sometime later, long after she had fallen asleep, this movie came on. As the movie went on I didn't understand why I was so uncomfortable and scared; I just hid under my blanket, peeking out at the tv and feeling a pit in my stomach. For some reason the scene where two of the teens are kissing on the beach won't leave me; even now I can feel that weird, awkward, uncomfortable knot in my stomach just thinking about it. Looking back now, the stilted dialogue and hazy dream-like visuals definitely contributed to the sense of dread I felt. I was not able to sleep that night at all. The movie genuinely messed me up for a long time.
I know the feeling of seeing one when I was too young to understand how/why being affected... I have been looking for one I saw when I was young... before I knew to search google for film title... was not English, maybe German or Russia or French or some other Euro language... Set in early 1900...? Color (not B/W) I only remember a few scenes... Two men have consensual relations with a woman, then she dies... A man and woman spin somebody around, at first like playing, but quickly escalated to violence, slam the person to death.... An old man tells a peasant woman to milk him, she says “you can’t milk a bull”, and then he kills himself... I was too young to understand what the scenes were implying. Trying to remember it, seems there was theme of class or race or something like ‘people viewing/treating others as equal to cattle, or as not human...? I wish someone could name the film???
it stars barbara hershey and richard thomas. i saw this on cable back in the 80's and wasn't very impressed by it all. except for hershey's nude scenes which were all too brief. but i did forget the ending. maybe i should rewatch it, uh? thanks for not including any damned torture porn. there's a huge discrepancy between "horror and disturbing" and "shock, gross-out and pretention." torture porn is a perfect example. its not designed to scare you. its designed to shock and sicken you. and they're so damned pretentious in the process. torture porn is sick and disgusting and those who like it are too. i can name a few movies i'd include in this video. "extremities," "freaks", "nosferatu," "irreversible," "the sailor who fell from grace with the sea," "the innocents," and the "haunting." and there's 2 movies about the very disturbing "Sylvia Likens" case. and many, many japanese and korean horror movies. (sorry, i just can't list them all.) thanks for the video. (just imagine how cool this video would be without the "f" word being spewed. you could do the ENTIRE video without one "f" word and NO ONE would miss it or complain. TRY IT SOMETIME! as it is, this video needs to be age restricted JUST because of that word.)
Personally, one of the most disturbing movies I've seen is almost never put in the genre of 'horror' or 'disturbing', which is Godzilla 1954. I've watched more horror movies than i can count, and at this point I'm literally SEARCHING for a movie to scare me because I've seen so many movies, but i don't think a movie has ever really made me feel the same way Godzilla 1954 made me feel. It's not just a monster movie, it's a real look at what would happen if a monster destroyed the place you live. The scene showing the aftermath of Godzilla's rampage is one of the saddest things I've ever seen in a movie and it moves me so much, this movie takes a fictional idea and shows the most real version of it. To top it off, Godzilla 1954 is based off of the events of Hiroshima, the monster itself being a physical form of the destruction the nuclear bomb caused, so in a way, it's even harder to watch the movie knowing that the destruction caused in it is real. (Apparently, the design of Godzilla is actually based off of the bodies of victims of Hiroshima, and the 'scales' on Godzilla's body are actually scars, so there's a fun fact) If you haven't already, give the original Japanese version of Godzilla 1954 a watch, some might see it as cheesy, but to me, it's the most disturbing monster movie I've ever watched.
Finally someone who gets it! And there are some camera angles that made me uncomfortable during the vision. It's something the modern movies can't replicate
the hokey, fake miniture sets and fake monster didn't turn you off? sorry, godzilla is one of the silliest movies ever made. its one of those "so bad its funny" films. thanks for not including any damned torture porn. there's a huge discrepancy between "horror and disturbing" and "shock, gross-out and pretention." torture porn is a perfect example. its not designed to scare you. its designed to shock and sicken you. and they're so damned pretentious in the process. torture porn is sick and disgusting and those who like it are too. i can name a few movies i'd include in this video.

This video got me really tense. I knew he wouldn't put any jump scare in the middle, he's not that cheap, but that actually made things even more frightening because I knew that the tension would just keep building up with no ending in sight, and it got to really uncomfortable levels. In other words, this video is scarier than most of the "horror" films I've watched recently. Keep up the good work
last summer is most certainly the most paralyzing film I've ever watched. never heard of it before this video, and this segment got me sold and wow, it's exactly as he described it. I felt suffocated throughout the entire thing. I legit couldn't breathe during the theater scene, despite it being canonically consensual, it's just so disturbing and invasive, a masterpiece of a tense scene. the third act actually felt like a nightmare, the feeling the date scene gave me was a genuine 1:1 recreation of a specific feeling that I've had in a few nightmares before. never fucking seen a movie do that. and the ending is pure evil, it speaks for itself. I'm really thankful that john recommended this movie, and I recommend anyone with a cursory interest in this movie to immediately watch, and not rewatch this video multiple times like I did. let the imagery and sequence of events shock you. TLDR: an actual nightmare, 10/10
Luis Buñuel, actually. He was just as much the surrealist as Dali was, if not more. And he had the added benefit of not being a fascist sympathizer like Dali.
@Jo Jo Because it doesn’t matter? You understood what he said, and mispronouncing a word isn’t tantamount to a hate crime. Ease off. Why is it funny to make fun of the way that an Irish accent sounds, but it’s not okay to mispronounce a word by mistake?
@Jo Jo Low effort? Damn. Think that’s the first time anybody’s accused him of that. Fuck the rest of his production design, I guess, because he pronounced a French word slightly wrong.
actually, torture p0rn can be done masterfully (altho very few is actually doing this) for this kind of stuff where it actually sticks I would highly suggest looking into the french horror wave from around the 2000s that is literally named "gorep0rn" extremely disturbing and uses the device as a way to show the banality of evil in humans and so on
Wow, you weren’t kidding about the animal abuse part in Last Summer 😢 It’s so awful of the producers (or whoever) decided it was okay to abuse that poor seagull for the film, that’s just real-life non-fiction evil 😭
I will never watch that motive, for that reason. I even looked away from this video and just listened to what he said so I didn’t have to see it, and I’m _still_ feeling nauseous just from his relatively light description. I love birds so much, they are such wonderful companions and a lot more emotionally intelligent than most people realise, and watching a helpless bird being literally tortured on screen would break me completely.
@@Di4B7O Nature is cruel, you're not wrong there. But the producer still made the conscious, willful decision to inflict massive pain on an animal for... entertainment. They have the budget to make it fake, there was no excuse to hurt on an innocent creature that cannot defend itself just to save a little green cotton-linen paper.
Excellent video. It's refreshing to see a RUclips video about "disturbing" movies that isn't just Cannibal Holocaust, A Serbian Film, The Human Centipede and half a dozen other movies everyone's already heard of a thousand times, and which doesn't just gleefully relish in the content it covers but actually delivers some thoughtful commentary on why the more extreme end of cinema has, at its best, more to offer than simple shock value. Between this, your videos about wrestling, and the video about Yakuza which just happens to be my latest obsession, I think I've found my new favourite content creator on this site. :)
@@karlo125 a movie called “A Serbian Film”. One of the most disgusting, depraved, sickening, depressing movies ever made. Featuring every type of rape imaginable.
Welcome to the club. On the left we have horrific videos that the commentary will make you think on the subject matter for an hour, and on the right is funny wrestling video.
Too difficult a watch for me. I love disturbing things and love the analysis of said disturbing things but it gets a little too real for me when it involves animals and even animal animations. I feel like im missing something by being unable to finish the video.
So that Mark Twain clip is one of the main inspirations for the show Infinity Train. Which is a kids anthology series that covers complex topics and has disturbing imagery, that gets more complex and disturbing with each season (the finale of season 3 having one of the most horrifying moments in children's media). I bring this up because I want more people to know about Infinity Train, its a really good show.
@@crowscrawl It depends where you live. If you live in America you can watch on it HBO Max. Unfortunately in Ireland and the UK there is no legal way to watch the show without using a VPN.
People who see Plague Dogs and shrug and say, "They're just animals," should be immediately informed that the film also represents how the most average humans are complicit in the mistreatment of the most powerless humans due to the decisions of the most powerful humans.
People should realise that being “just animals” isn’t an excuse for inflicting incomprehensible suffering on them when they feel that pain and cannot understand it. Understanding the movie as human suffering really diminishes the core message tbh.
yes, its called "blind compliance to authority." which was demonstrated in the milgram experiments. people are bloody idiots. they'll do anything they're told, commit any horrific acts if they're convinced by their corporate masters that its acceptable or necessary.

IMPORTANT NOTE ON OCCULT: Don't watch the full ending. Cut it off just before they "play the tape", you'll know when, then read a transcript of the ending instead of watching it. The budget was comically too small to capture what the director... envisioned for the ending, so reading the text form of the ending is a strictly better experience than actually watching it after having watched such a masterfully produced low-budget film prior to that point.
Also watch Noroi, by the same director. This is not a request. Honestly, Koji Shiraishi is required watching for anyone interested in non-western takes on cosmic horror.
I've tried looking around online to find the original vision for the ending but didn't have much luck, just a lot of reviews. Would you by any chance happen to have a link?
@@bass626 this one seems to have the... ending. ruclips.net/video/I6qri3HnUQQ/видео.html but, again, I wouldn't advise that. It's never going to live up to what you hope it will from the text version. Movie's a classic but maybe could use a remaster.
Is the script easy to find online? And the movies as well, both Occult and Noroi? I watched Noroi years ago but I barely remember much of it besides some really fucked up shit in a village.
The lab rat scene shown from Plague Dogs instantly reminded me of the lab scene from The Secret of NIMH. Those scenes bothered me as a child, & they eventually even inspired me to do one of my first paintings.
Fun fact: [SPOILERS for The Plague Dogs] . . . . The book Plague Dogs is based upon, had a happy ending. However, the author wanted to keep it ambiguous if the dogs make it out alive or not, which was rejected by the publisher. Later, the author became a scriptwriter for the movie and kept the ending the book was intended to have. Therefore, the movie is an adaptation more faithful to the source material than the source material itself
I think I had read a version that had both endings. One being the original then you read a bit of info about what the publishers wanted so you go on to read the happy ending. Which admittedly feels like more of a cop out to give you the happy ending so it's not as good.
Honestly I gotta give you props for the transitions you did between movie to movie. They were seamless and I didn't even realize you were changing movies until you pointed it out. Kudos to your hard work!
The scariest thing about horror movies is how visceral they can be in terms of interpreting reality. Sometimes its so uncannily possible that it becomes horrifying.
The best horror are the ones that blend real fears with that movie magic to tweak your mind in that special way only fiction can. That's why you can get even G-Rated shows planting existential dread in a child without using overt cues.
Very true for most of the genre! And, in a weird way, it can be a positive (depending on the person consuming the medium with the genre involved) - it helps most people face parts of reality to function better in it! ^^
One of my favorite quotes about eldritch/cosmic horror and why it's so hard to make into a movie is: when you actually encounter the Old Ones, it's like finding a pair of unfamiliar underwear in the bed you share with your partner. The underwear itself isn't horrifying, but what it implies is. In the case of the underwear, it means your partner doesn't love you. In the case of the Old Ones, it means God doesn't love you. Anyway: "In the Mouth of Madness" is an underrated gem of a horror comedy about the slow dissolution of reality and the role that both celebrity and mass-media play in our lives.
I am honestly so high as I read this that I genuinely thought for a split second while reading this that you were saying encountering the Old Ones means you're being cheated on somehow 😂
I'm pretty tolerant of most horror but even those few clips of Plague Dogs absolutely fucking broke me. I don't think I'd be able to watch it without bawling my eyes out the entire way through.
holy shit same. through this entire video the only part that affected me was him talking about plague dogs and watching the dog drown in the beginning 🥺 only to be part of an experiment 😭
Somewhere in the middle of that segment, I started crying like crazy and had to take a break. I saw this movie already and it's open, bittersweet ending doesn't make it any better for me. It took me some time to calm down, then I went and found the book the film was adapted from on my shelves, and swore to start reading it in the near future. Glad to hear this video segment has the same impact on other people.
Same here. I can watch a lot of disturbing horror but when it comes to animals..I'm extremely sensitive to their suffering. The fact that it's really happening to thousands of animals across the world in labs every day is just soul crushing.
When you said the title "Last Summer" I got a sudden memory, and now it feels like I have always remembered it.I was up past my bedtime scrolling through channels and my hand stopped when Last Summer came on. I watched through the movie and as that seagull torture scene happened, my body froze I had goosebumps all over. I couldn't move for the rest of that movie, I like repressed that memory, because I think I just couldn't handle what I watched at that age. I didn't know what the feeling of hopelessness was until I saw the look of true and utter despair on the face of that red head girl. She was totally hopeless and that just hit my young mind somewhere that was painful and stopped my heart. I can't tell if I should be mad or happy that you allowed me to remember this, so fuck you and thank you at the same time, because you helped/burdened me with this knowledge. Good video regardless
I get the thank you-fuck you sentiment because whenever I'm reminded of repressed/partially-repressed memories, I'm fascinated by the mind's ability to block something out completely for so long and move on BUT then I'm just as affected by the memory as ever. The pain/uneasiness/cringe always seems to retain the original intensity
@@Lwoods1717its insane and extremely fascinating navigating through life and understanding just how powerful and protective the brain can be as you get older, from a first hand perspective. I have pretty clear memories of some stuff happening to me, and I was told about other things that happened by the person that did those things and its just completely blank. No matter how hard I try to remember or envision it, my brain has completely blacked out and damn near erased those other events just to protect me. I'm getting kinda emotional thinking that at least someone was looking out for me lmao. It's intrinsically an egotistical concept for us humans to think so highly of ourselves, but God our existence and perceptions and subconscious functions are truly the most fascinating and wondrous things ever.
@@jonah_da_mann a serbian film is more shocking than disturbing. I think disturbing is more subtle and insidious and for sure, A serbian film is neither lol.
Yeah I consider those three movies to sort of "go together". They all have varying degrees of disturbing imagery and similar themes and I recommend watching all three!
It could be just me, but I consider Felidae to be the most tame of the 3. I can't comment on how it compares to most movies on this list because I haven't seen them.
The most scared I've been by a movie was Mulholland Drive. I've been watching horror literally for longer than I can remember (thanks mom and dad) and I've reached a point where I need something deeply psychologically chilling or disturbing to really stick with me. Despite Mulholland Drive not exactly being a horror movie, the directing, framing, and descent into a nightmare left me sleeping with the lights in my room on for two nights after. I watched it when I was 17. I vividly recall the tension when they find that dead body, and how moved I felt during the theatre scene with the woman singing, and how much that performance and it's implications had on the story. Obviously the last 15-20 minutes live in my mind rent free, thats David Lynch for you. I watched it, and every other David Lynch work I've ever seen, with my dad, so I had the fortune of his years of theorizing and forum reading to help explain certain parts of the movie. I never got to watch Eraserhead or Inland Empire with him, though it was on the list. I think he was really glad that the movie stuck with me so deeply, because it did the same to him when he watched it's premier in theatres all those years ago. Horror is a tricky genre, cause it's themes and tones and such can leave a lasting impact on you, for better or for worse. But as much as I joke to my friends about being scarred by my parents letting me watch horror movies growing up, I think it genuinely had an impact on how I think about the world and how I consume media. Watching a horror movie with my dad and discussing things during and after the movie, and ultimately feeling like I left with a bit more of an understanding of the world really are some of my best memories. Getting to discuss theorize about each episode of Twin Peaks: The Return with someone who had been waiting 25 years for it, and have my observations and theories affect his viewing experience, like we were building our own interpretation of it together. Sorry that went off the rails, but that is something I love about media interpretation. It feels like you can learn to understand others better through it, both from what you see on the screen and how you discuss it with others. I always meant to watch some of the movies from this video with him, but there's only so much time, and I never got around to it, but I do think when I watch them I won't do it alone, I'll have my friends there, and I'll have his memory there too.
The Baby was a very messed up movie, the Baby character was a victim big time, the ending of it was just really kinda depressing and made you feel hopeless for him.
How you described Last Summer is exactly how Ringu came to me. I was going in and out of sleep, lying down watching TV at midnight. Scrolling through the channels, only boring program after another when a scene catches my attention. I don't know what program it is, it just gets me curious. My intention was to go to bed after a couple minutes but the movie just kept reeling me deeper and deeper into the plot. I ended up watching the whole movie and sitting at the end credits a little paranoid to turn off the TV. Knowing it was just a movie but also with it feeling like i had just fell asleep on the couch and dreamt it all. A surreal feeling, that no other film has managed to create for me. The aspect of just stumbling upon something great is such an exciting feeling.
There is a Batman quote I really like that relates to this video "That's fine be scared. Everyone gets scared. But, remember that all that means is everyone gets the opportunity to fight that fear. Everyone get's the chance to be brave." This was on Gotham's origin at the beginning of Batman Rebirth.
insects out of hand supposedly references a french expression for when your hand or body part falls asleep, it feels like ants crawling over that area.
Ew I could've gone my whole life without thinking about this, but now that I do it does feel like that! So thanks I guess. Maybe this will finally help me sit properly and not on top of one of my legs
can i just say that i really appreciate when people make "weird" kink jokes that don't actually make fun of the kinksters? like it seems so small but a "this probably kickstarted someone's fetish" is way funnier and more respectful than making a "eww gross ppl get off to something i personally find uncomfortable and that makes them evil" joke like so many other folks would have done. love that, keep it up man
I'm a native speaker of Russian and I watched Threads almost by accident when I was about 14 and at the time my english wasn't good enough to properly extract the meanings from the lines. Yet even through the language barrier it shook me to the core, so sickening and truthful to reality, that I fell sick the very evening and it took me more than two weeks to recover. No regret regarding having seen it exactly when I had, since I've found it a gateway to an accute, but honest and responsible contemplation of mortality. Ty Wolf for helping relive a genuine experience
im only asking this because you’re russian and my russian fiancé RAVES about this movie, so… have you seen “come and see” ?? i love horror movies but the description alone of that movie makes me not want to watch it!!
I knew I didn't need to bring it up. I was going to thank him for the 300% amount of syllable he offers with "films.". He didn't need to add them, but he did
This is an excellent video. It's honestly SO refreshing to see a video on 'disturbing movies' that isn't just a montage of fucked up scenes, gore and other gross stuff.
my favorite movie with body horror has to be black swan, the transformation nina endures throughout the runtime is just incredible. i love how much of a puzzle it is on the first watch, it’s very successful in putting the viewer into the main character’s point of view. jennifer’s body is pretty good too but it’s more of a comedy than a horror.
@@BurningBlackScarlet He’s dead. Passed away peacefully in his sleep on December 24, 2016 at 96 years old. Incidentally, this was the same year I discovered Watership Down. It’s my favourite book.
Tbh a horror movie being someone's fetish probably means it's a scary movie If two girls one cup taught us anything about life is that human sexuality can be truly terrifying sometimes
Exactly. Seeing gross, messed up stuff like that really reminds me how we humans are still animals at the end of the day. Animals who still act on our disgusting primal instincts, no matter how “advanced” we claim we are compared to other animals.
Yep. People who genuinely love, enjoy, and partake in an activity are so much more intimately familiar with the nuances and realities of that activity. You're absolutely right
Some of my favorite films surprisingly were mentioned in this video: The Plague Dogs for its incredible introspection and depiction of not just animal abuse but trauma in general, Possession for how unsettling and overpowering the force of the Divine is and how it slowly affects all the lives involved in it, and Watership Down is in fact my all time favorite film because of how powerfully it portrays its own implications of war, religion, and death. But if you ask me, there is absolutely no film more disturbing, haunting, and scary than Come And See. A Soviet war film from 1985, it puts you in the mind of the protagonist Flyora, a teenager who gleefully joins the Soviet troops in WWII, only to be thrown into a complete whirlwind of chaos, death, and loss of hope for humanity as Nazi solders move to exterminate every Slavic civilian... and you feel *everything* he feels. The film is shot and mixed much more like a general horror film than a war film to let the viewer experience the confusion and insanity of the crumbling world around Flyora, from the first attack to the last powerful scene. I don't want to sound pretentious on behalf of so many other brilliant war films like Schindler's List and Apocalypse Now, but they simply cannot match up to the rage, anguish, and true pain that Come And See portrays. It's title says it all; it invites you to experience humans at their most evil.
I watched the film sometime ago, I think it's great. I wouldn't categorize in the horror film genre, I think it is a war film like every single other in existence, the difference with this one is that it is stripped of everything supposed to be in a war film, by that I mean the heroic narrative of the soldier and his love for his patria. The best word to describe the film imo is "Raw". The film portrays WWII in Belarus as aimless and without motive, no military success only or grand strategy, the only thing we see is Nazis killing civilians for the hell of it and the civilians reacting in a realistic manner to violence, with no embellishments, cool music, Marlon Brando or Tom Hanks. Everyone should watch the movie and if you are scared of it, don't be pussy and just do it, it's a feat in the world of cinema.
I included Come and See in my comment as one of my top recommendations for disturbing films. Nice to see someone else got so much of veiwing it like I did. I haven't met anyone irl who has seen it or even heard of it.
I am so happy to see this content on your channel. Not particularly because I love the topic you are talking about as much as anime or games you may cover, but because it’s amazing to see your diversity in content get the credit it deserves. Keep going man, you are a true inspiration
Eff me the Plague Dogs section is exactly what breaks my soul and so i avoid it at all costs in order to avoid OCD intrusive thoughts and depression spirals. The suffering of animals and children do that to me and i cant handle it. Uuuuuugh Other than that i love horror and horror media. You did a great job on this video!!
Threads might be one of the most brutal and important movies ever made with a total crushing ending. Because as long as nukes exist, it could happen, anywhere at anytime and your life, hopes and dreams are totally negliable. Doubtful any nuke proponent wouldnt flip after watching.
I haven't seen Threads, but I have seen The War Game from 1965. It's also a pseudo-documentary, complete with a narrator clinically describing the effects of nuclear war on Britain. It's amazing that a black and white movie can be so stark and shocking.
Except I fail to see how fire bombings and mass gang rapes are any better? I'm not even necessarily pro nuke, but nukes have saved the world a LOT of death up to this point.
If both countries are able to destroy each other in a press of a button then the war between them is extremely unlikely. This is one of the reasons of why there was so few wars in comparison to let's say 70 years ago. A lot of lives saved by that. Stop dramatising things for no reason.
I was convinced up until now that I was the only person to have ever seen 'The Plague Dogs'. Parents rented this when I was a little kid. You know. Because it's a cartoon! Huahahaha. Oof.
I loved your commentary at the end and horror movies being a welcome distraction from the horror of our real world that we can't as easily turn away from.
It's not a horror film, but Johnny Got His Gun is possibly the scariest movie I've ever heard of. I've only seen a scene or two from it, but what that film portrays is true horror to me.
I remember reading the book for the first time and then just having to take a walk to process everything I read. For whatever reason I couldn't stop reading no matter how much I wanted to.
I actually use that pronunciation when I want to denote a movie is a cut above being a movie. I've been doing it so long, I forget it's really how some people say film.
Possession is exhausting to watch in the best possible way. I was looking forward to the ending not because I wasn't enjoy it but because I didn't know how much more insanity I could handle. It's delightful!
I watched it with my ex and decided to leave the room. Amazing how he could stand to watch such things happen on screen. It really shocked him when life began to imitate art.
Good God I remember Last Summer , what happens at the end shook me forever.. I am 60 and saw last summer at the theater when I came out and I have seen it just that once and I have never forgotten the sick to my stomach feeling as I walked out of the theater. That was 42 years ago.
I know it's not a movie, but Texhnolyze is still one of the most bone-chillingly disturbing things I've ever watched. The ending had me just staring into my ceiling the entire night after I watched it, basically catatonic. I cannot in good faith recommend it to anyone, but I can for sure say it's a work of art.
Fun facts about Un Chien Andalu (from a spanish guy ^^): not only the main purpose of both creators (Dalí and Buñuel) was to make a short without any logical sense, they also wanted to get on rich people's nerves especially, making sure of that with some imagery that was considered "forbiden" or cursed at the time. Also (this is a really accurate theory, in my opinion), the name is a reference to Lorca, a legendary spanish poet from Andalucía (Spain) who some people think dated Dalí. Dalí then cheated on him with Buñuel and named the film after Lorca (Un chien andalu = un perro andaluz = a dog from Andalucía) to make fun of him! Thanks for recommending this beautiful unknown pieces of media, Wolfie ^^
According to wikipedia tho most of the rich elite that were supposed to be offended actually really liked the movie much to the suprise of the creators
I had the impression the name could have been an insult to a religion (which one , depends on the creator's views and affiliations) related to that period...i hope i'm wrong tho...
I was looking for a war movie and I found a Russian film ‘Come and See’. It was about a young boy who experienced the horror of World War II. I remember I thought about it a lot after watching it alone because of how scary and disturbing it was. Probably one of the movies that I won’t watch twice, including ‘Possession’. Now I’m curious to see ‘The Plague Dogs’.
The reason why I don't like horror is that it makes me sad, rather than scared or disturbed. The "killer" (be it human, natural, or supernatural) has its way with mostly innocent people and gets away scot free with absolutely no justice what-so-ever. We get enough of that in real life. I don't need to be reminded of that.
Yeah it is an "honorless genre". I dont know if you understand what i mean... for someone like me that has grown with 80s manly action movies and myth heroes stories this genre is pitiful at best. The only exeption is lovecraft
@@SIGNOR-G ...eh? honestly action movies are kinda fluffy and idealistic, don't get me wrong I enjoy them but they don't make me doubt existence say something like threads.
@@satan9487 to each their own i guess. I for example dont really need to "doubt existance". Im a simple man. When i watch a movie i just want to enjoy sone good action and cheesy one liner. P.S why is Satan on youtube?
I feel like another reason I like disturbing movies is because it makes me feel more normal. Not just in a “at least I’ll never have it THIS bad” way but because I really do have a lot of emotional struggles and trauma in my life, and movies like this help me process those kinds of feelings in a way that’s externalized instead of trapped in my own head.
I get the exact same out of it tbh, I feel like it's less of a 'it could have been worse' and more of a 'im not the only one who knows what it's like to suffer' Makes you feel like less of an outlier in the world, and that's both heartbreaking and comforting in a way
This is a completely different form of media but I feel the same way about certain albums. Atrocity exhibition by Danny brown carried me through so much of my formative years and I didn't even understand until now that it being so fucked up and experimental and weird was helping me deal with how confusing life can be. I first heard of this idea from a video of Mos Def praising the MF Doom album Madvillainy. He heard the album and immediately bought it on vinyl without even having a record player and was just so attracted to the album because it was just as weird as he had always felt. The relationships we can have with different artforms is truly a fantastic thing
holy shit, just this video gives me chills. I love horror, but I get scared very easily and makes me stay awake at night a ton, it gets very annoying as I can't stop exploring a horror topic once found.
I’m glad you took the time to talk about Occult, honestly an underrated work from that director. When it comes to Koji Shiraishi, everyone only really talks about Noroi, but his lesser known films are great too.
So question: found the film to honestly be very engaging and had one of the most genuine frights I’ve ever had in a film. But, the very last 10 seconds. Is there a story behind that? I have some theories but am curious if there is a definite answer out there
@@x-mobius0ne Yeah I probably should have clarified. By “story behind it” I guess I meant why it looked so terrible without even trying to hide it hahah I felt the effects for the most part were obviously low budget but worked in this other worldly sense. And I can understand if the intent was to make something so abstract and not comprehensible by our brains that that’s what the hellscape looked like. But I was also thinking beyond a filmmaking point, because god damn it looks hilarious. So I think it could just be a way of the director to shit on terrorists and those who believe they are carrying out acts of God. To end the film on something like that, there had to be some larger purpose behind that being the pin point.
@@sickmondo2333 I see. From what I could find out, the film was already low budget so maybe that's the best they could do. I definitely got a HP Lovecraft of Junji Ito feeling from the ending but I do agree it looked pretty hilarious when it really should have been a more disturbing and nightmarish ending that leaves you with a haunting feeling. I still enjoyed it for the most part.
@@x-mobius0ne Yeah, super Ito and Lovecraftian for sure. Defined enjoyed it a ton and the scare at night fucking got me real good. Just yeah, the ending got a good laugh out of me hahab
Concrete is a movie I randomly remember occasionally from time to time. The movie is disturbing enough, but the most disturbing part is the knowledge that the real life victim it is based off of, Junko Furata, never received proper justice. Her kidnappers that tormented, r@p3d, and unalived her before dumping her body into a barrel and sealing it with wet concrete were given lenient sentences due to them being underaged and given new identifies after serving their sentences, much to the public’s outcry.
Yo, i remember in facebook as a teen reading about that case, that case still makes me sick to my stomach and sows my mistrust in people. What would you're warnings be on concrete? I would love to watch it but at the same time I'm not sure if I'd be able to stomach it
You said 'Threads' and a chill went up my spine. Part of my GCSE History (UK high school exams) stuff was being taught about the Cold War, good GOD it worked. Didn't help Sheffield is about an hours drive away, if that
For me, one of the absolute most terrifying films I had ever seen was Come and See. A foreign film that documents just how the most vile and evil thing on the planet are human's and ideology.
oh yes i wanted to suggest it too!! it absolutely broke me and one of the scenes lives rent free in my brain. and it also teaches you about previously unheard of horrible massacres in belarus :) worth watching

I love that in many cases, disturbing horror scenes and absurdist comedy scenes are only separated by audio queues
HOW FUCKING DARE YOU BE SO CORRECT
This is a useful observation
I've seen some comedies and horror movies that can only have their genres identified based off the soundtracks and sound effects. Add a laugh track to many horror B movies and you get comedies while some absurdist and dark comedies could easily be horror films if you took out the laugh track. Even some Sitcoms could easily be horror movies with an audio change. Add a sinister score and remove the laugh track and Two and A Half Men is darker then most horror comedies. Remove the cutesy voices and Boku No Pico goes from disturbing to truly horrifying

@@sleepingchaser You know I found a pile of DVDs of The Adventures of Mark Twain at the dollar store, along low-budget Christian films and other movies that were just crap and they made too many of.

@@pickles3128 yeah, I’m all too familiar with the kind of Christian movies you’re talking about... seen my fair share of them. It’s a shame how forgotten that movie is.

@@korarain8190 no it doesnt, last summer is decades before katy perry got famous
@@alilweeb7684 exactly... she had connections with people in the show biz. That’s how a lot of famous people (not all) get to where they are. Without knowing people in the business, it’s hard to make it tbh. It’s not a bad thing though! But it’s just harder to make it without knowing some people.
For example, I wanna pursue music full time. However to get there, I’m gonna have to do lots of gigs, advertise my stuff, get people to know my name, be on social media constantly, etc. but it’s really difficult to do that stuff without some people to help. It’s good to have connections so you’re not just alone and ranking up 10 views every day. To be like, VEVO famous though, you definitely know some people already and have lots of skill and talent.

You wouldn't believe how scared I was of Disney's Pinocchio as a child. I'm so traumatised by it that even now I remember it as one of the creepiest movies I've ever seen.
same??? I literally remember being scared shitless because the black whale was so scary
i remeber it had a strange athmosphere thats for sure
for me pinnochio was scary in himself. dude we as kids live our lives rooting for the protagonist and learning AND idealising them but this lad was hella dissapointing in himself to me , like lieing all the time and getting into such dangerous situations coz of it and hell his long nose everytime he lied . even tho the story is teaching us morals but the movie is not for sensitive kids or like me who used to root to the stories and the characters .
You think thats scary? My dad read us the original story to my sister and me as a bedtime story when I was about 7 😅
same! i thought i was the only one
My parents bought Watership Down for me as a child because they thought it was just another cute cartoon to keep me occupied. That suffocation scene was so disturbing to me, I couldn't get it out of my mind. I began to think of how the rabbits felt and how terrifying it must have been for them desperately trying to find a way out, dead bodies blocking every tunnel. I think it was one of the first moments of strong empathy I had as a very small child.
i love watership down! i watched it for a history project
I remember seeing that scene and the deep disgust I felt for the British countryside in which I live, how this was just a chore that had to be done to maintain land for human interest. It made me think so hard about how we view animals and wildlife.
Very disturbingly in the UK a lot of laws to protect ecosystems have been revoked and challenged for industrial interests in various ways, so this scene feels disturbingly relevant. It reminds me to be angry, to not let this happen.
@@misterantrobus I agree! I read the book for class when I was 14 and it is so disturbing it’s one of those books that just numb you out for the rest of the day
My Mom borrowed the DVD for it from a library along with a little, violent show about forest animals called The Animals of Farthing Wood (and I guess Harry and his Bucket Full of Dinosaurs but that wasn’t scary). My sister was completely and utterly terrified by them, though she already was creeped out by older animation, and all I saw were the cute woodland animals. The violence did not phase me.
In retrospect, I can see a pattern in my earliest memories of deep sadness and empathy I had from watching stuff. Wreck it Ralph’s scene where Ralph betrays Venelope, a documentary about owls in which the mother is forced to feed her weakest child to the rest of her family, Anakin murdering the younglings (although that scene has been memed so much that I can’t help but laugh when I see it nowadays), a film in which a man kills his son in the name of God…the pattern appears to be that younger me had an intense feeling of dread from watching children be betrayed by adults. I suppose there’s just an inherit helplessness in a situation like that- a type of feeling which clearly unnerved me.
Great book. A wondrous and sometimes frightening story that really puts you through the experience of being the "other". The rabbits not only must survive predators, but also humans, who seem bent on rabbit murder for incomprehensible reasons. The rabbits try to explain it all with a complex mythology that emphasizes the importance of clever observation and quick action for survival. Had a huge impact on me. Bigwig is my spirit animal 🐰💕

I watched Last Summer as a child on a cruise ship that would repeat the same set of movies on a channel throughout our expedition. I don't know who on earth approved of the movie, playing not just once but MULTIPLE times throughout our stay on the ship, but the ending completely gutted me. As a kid i didn't really understand what had happened at the end until searching up the film's synopsis, but i cried after realizing what they had done to the girl. I wonder if the movie was inspired by a personal event that was as jarring as the one the film portrayed.
I did some research, and the movie was based off of a novel of the same name, written by I believe a detective, or someone who worked in criminal activity. So could be something like that.
He wrote a sequel too.
I had the same experience with an episode of Two and a Half Men on a cruise as a young teen. That episode will be cemented into my mind forever.
It's really brutal

it's funny to me because i'm chilean and when i was twelve, the creators of the movie came to my school and played a chunk to my class. we all left the theater a bit traumatized, because of the unsettling imagery but also because the topic (torture in the middle of a dictatorship) hits close to home to all chileans.

As a Chilean, born and raised, as well as the classmate of the nephew's guy who made 'Casa Lobo' I must point out the underlying topics of torture and kidnap regrading the period of political haunt we lived during the regime of dictator Augusto Pinochet during the 80's, particularly related to a certain psychopath and torturer that lived and ravaged people in my country. Certainly an interesting take on the real horrors of our reality.
Great video, SuperEyepatch, love your content. Keep it up!
I must say, I'm rather intruiged to learn more from a native who can tell me far more than an outsider.
Would you be willing to expand on the topic?
@@ahmedio5289 Since 1961, Paul Schafer, an ex army official and known nazi living in the south of Chile, administered a settlement in the region called 'Colonia Dignidad'. There, he and his peers exploited people of all ages, subduing them to torture and abuse. Afterwards, when general Augusto Pinochet took over the country and became the head of a dictatorship that lasted from 1973 until 1990, the place continued to be used as a den for torturing prisoners, political and otherwise, captured people and abused children. The movie depicts a girl that escaped the place but continues to suffer from trauma and the horrors she lived there
@@WillCorvinus No tenía idea que esta película (de la que me vengo enterando recién con este video) fuera chilena.

hey i'm from chile! the casa lobo is inspired by the horrors inside paul schaffer's cult like colony where children were constantly molested and abused. the main character is re living her traumas and the wolf is basically paul schaffer talking to her. i saw it when it first came and i was amazed. it is so good, and i'm glad that you gave this movie a shoutout because chilean cinema is not often talked about. great video!

19:33 “Those at the fringes of society are most vulnerable to the insidious forces that lie beyond it” literally one of the most poetic things I’ve ever heard. I’m actually going to remember this line for the rest of my life. It helps me understand something that’s confounded me for my whole life.
I put this film on my watch later list after seeing this video. Later I saw it came back to this video after having watched it, and I'm struck by just how much this line fits the exact impression I got from the movie.
could you elaborate in what it was that's confounded you for years? I'd love to hear your thoughts :D
@@thisrandomdude_ I grew up in the projects in the Bronx. Half my family were in gangs. I have cousins in jail for life. My dad was addicted to heroine. I say all this to try and give you in as few words as possible a perspective into my emotional state when I ask this question.
one of my cousins in jail for double murder was also the cousin who would bike to my house every day when I was a kid to help my mom when my dad wasn’t around. He was only 16. My dad, he would help everyone in the neighborhood. One time the cashier gave us too much change back by mistake and he made us get back on the bus for 40 minutes to return the money. Mind you we were on welfare at the time lol. He would run out in the rain to help someone change their tire. Literally give you the shirt off his back.
I’ve seen real evil. And I’ve seen pure genuine kindness and goodness. And it’s always bothered me. The question is hard to put in words even now. But I guess it’s as simple a, why do good people do bad things? Or maybe more specifically, why is there so much suffering and cruelty in the hood? What makes a 16 year old pick up a gun and shoot someone?
I’ve thought a lot about this since this video and while I still don’t have a satisfying answer it’s helpful to at least have this perspective of vulnerability. That the evil doesn’t come from us but is right outside, psychological, social, and economic forces preying on the vulnerable.

@@SugarRush1990
Satan was a servant of God/Yahweh (re: Job) prior to its reinvention as Lucifer the fallen Cherubim within Christian theology.
This iteration of Satan in particular is based on Twain's character Satan from his short story The Mysterious Stranger. In that short, Satan represents a more existential motif, a personification of the end of consciousness, the perhaps meaningless of existence and even the strange benevolence of non-existence. He's not really an evil character in the short, just strange and unknowable (much like the concept of ceasing yo exist/nothingness is).

As a kid, young enough I barely knew how TVs worked. I turned on the TV in a hotel. As I was channel surfing I caught a glimpse of something that left me horrified for years. A scene of gore, blood, and body horror. I turn off the TV.
Years later I’m an adult. I’m watching a movie and then, the scene happens. I realize this, this is the scene that scarred me so many years ago. And that movie was Hot Fuzz.
I really like Hot Fuzz, its a pretty smart horror comedy, maybe even the best of its trilogy. I find it poetic that what was trauma earlier in life, transformed into comedy.

OH MY GOD, I have been looking for the last movie - Last Summer - ever since I saw it when I was a little kid!! I don't have words to describe how much this movie absolutely disturbed me. The night that I saw it, my parents had taken me to a horror movie earlier that day (I believe it was Drag Me to Hell, but I'm unsure) because they were under the pretense it wasn't scary. I was too scared to sleep in my own bed, so I made a pillow fort on the floor of my mom's room. She left the tv on and sometime later, long after she had fallen asleep, this movie came on. As the movie went on I didn't understand why I was so uncomfortable and scared; I just hid under my blanket, peeking out at the tv and feeling a pit in my stomach. For some reason the scene where two of the teens are kissing on the beach won't leave me; even now I can feel that weird, awkward, uncomfortable knot in my stomach just thinking about it. Looking back now, the stilted dialogue and hazy dream-like visuals definitely contributed to the sense of dread I felt. I was not able to sleep that night at all. The movie genuinely messed me up for a long time.
Damn, that makes me want to watch it even more
Do you mind tellimg me how it ended?
I know the feeling of seeing one when I was too young to understand how/why being affected...
I have been looking for one I saw when I was young... before I knew to search google for film title... was not English, maybe German or Russia or French or some other Euro language...
Set in early 1900...?
Color (not B/W)
I only remember a few scenes...
Two men have consensual relations with a woman, then she dies...
A man and woman spin somebody around, at first like playing, but quickly escalated to violence, slam the person to death....
An old man tells a peasant woman to milk him, she says “you can’t milk a bull”, and then he kills himself...
I was too young to understand what the scenes were implying.
Trying to remember it, seems there was theme of class or race or something like ‘people viewing/treating others as equal to cattle, or as not human...?
I wish someone could name the film???

thanks for not including any damned torture porn. there's a huge discrepancy between "horror and disturbing" and "shock, gross-out and pretention." torture porn is a perfect example. its not designed to scare you. its designed to shock and sicken you. and they're so damned pretentious in the process. torture porn is sick and disgusting and those who like it are too.

"extremities," "freaks", "nosferatu," "irreversible," "the sailor who fell from grace with the sea," "the innocents," and the "haunting." and there's 2 movies about the very disturbing "Sylvia Likens" case. and many, many japanese and korean horror movies.

TRY IT SOMETIME! as it is, this video needs to be age restricted JUST because of that word.)
Personally, one of the most disturbing movies I've seen is almost never put in the genre of 'horror' or 'disturbing', which is Godzilla 1954. I've watched more horror movies than i can count, and at this point I'm literally SEARCHING for a movie to scare me because I've seen so many movies, but i don't think a movie has ever really made me feel the same way Godzilla 1954 made me feel. It's not just a monster movie, it's a real look at what would happen if a monster destroyed the place you live. The scene showing the aftermath of Godzilla's rampage is one of the saddest things I've ever seen in a movie and it moves me so much, this movie takes a fictional idea and shows the most real version of it. To top it off, Godzilla 1954 is based off of the events of Hiroshima, the monster itself being a physical form of the destruction the nuclear bomb caused, so in a way, it's even harder to watch the movie knowing that the destruction caused in it is real. (Apparently, the design of Godzilla is actually based off of the bodies of victims of Hiroshima, and the 'scales' on Godzilla's body are actually scars, so there's a fun fact) If you haven't already, give the original Japanese version of Godzilla 1954 a watch, some might see it as cheesy, but to me, it's the most disturbing monster movie I've ever watched.
Finally someone who gets it! And there are some camera angles that made me uncomfortable during the vision. It's something the modern movies can't replicate

last summer is most certainly the most paralyzing film I've ever watched. never heard of it before this video, and this segment got me sold and wow, it's exactly as he described it. I felt suffocated throughout the entire thing. I legit couldn't breathe during the theater scene, despite it being canonically consensual, it's just so disturbing and invasive, a masterpiece of a tense scene. the third act actually felt like a nightmare, the feeling the date scene gave me was a genuine 1:1 recreation of a specific feeling that I've had in a few nightmares before. never fucking seen a movie do that. and the ending is pure evil, it speaks for itself. I'm really thankful that john recommended this movie, and I recommend anyone with a cursory interest in this movie to immediately watch, and not rewatch this video multiple times like I did. let the imagery and sequence of events shock you.

IMPORTANT NOTE ON OCCULT:
Don't watch the full ending. Cut it off just before they "play the tape", you'll know when, then read a transcript of the ending instead of watching it. The budget was comically too small to capture what the director... envisioned for the ending, so reading the text form of the ending is a strictly better experience than actually watching it after having watched such a masterfully produced low-budget film prior to that point.
Also watch Noroi, by the same director. This is not a request.
Honestly, Koji Shiraishi is required watching for anyone interested in non-western takes on cosmic horror.
I agree on both points here
I've tried looking around online to find the original vision for the ending but didn't have much luck, just a lot of reviews. Would you by any chance happen to have a link?
@@bass626 this one seems to have the... ending. ruclips.net/video/I6qri3HnUQQ/видео.html

Movie's a classic but maybe could use a remaster.
Is the script easy to find online? And the movies as well, both Occult and Noroi? I watched Noroi years ago but I barely remember much of it besides some really fucked up shit in a village.

The lab rat scene shown from Plague Dogs instantly reminded me of the lab scene from The Secret of NIMH.
Those scenes bothered me as a child, & they eventually even inspired me to do one of my first paintings.
Fun fact: [SPOILERS for The Plague Dogs]
.

The book Plague Dogs is based upon, had a happy ending. However, the author wanted to keep it ambiguous if the dogs make it out alive or not, which was rejected by the publisher. Later, the author became a scriptwriter for the movie and kept the ending the book was intended to have. Therefore, the movie is an adaptation more faithful to the source material than the source material itself
I think I had read a version that had both endings. One being the original then you read a bit of info about what the publishers wanted so you go on to read the happy ending. Which admittedly feels like more of a cop out to give you the happy ending so it's not as good.
Lol the publisher is an ass that is for sure.
Honestly it doesn't feel ambiguous. It feels very likely that the dogs simply didn't make it.
Interesting.
@@LadyBern honestly after all that hell you’d want anything to make you feel better
Honestly I gotta give you props for the transitions you did between movie to movie. They were seamless and I didn't even realize you were changing movies until you pointed it out. Kudos to your hard work!
True. The editing work is getting better each day.
The scariest thing about horror movies is how visceral they can be in terms of interpreting reality. Sometimes its so uncannily possible that it becomes horrifying.
The best horror are the ones that blend real fears with that movie magic to tweak your mind in that special way only fiction can. That's why you can get even G-Rated shows planting existential dread in a child without using overt cues.
Very true for most of the genre!
And, in a weird way, it can be a positive (depending on the person consuming the medium with the genre involved) - it helps most people face parts of reality to function better in it! ^^
One of my favorite quotes about eldritch/cosmic horror and why it's so hard to make into a movie is: when you actually encounter the Old Ones, it's like finding a pair of unfamiliar underwear in the bed you share with your partner. The underwear itself isn't horrifying, but what it implies is. In the case of the underwear, it means your partner doesn't love you. In the case of the Old Ones, it means God doesn't love you.
Anyway: "In the Mouth of Madness" is an underrated gem of a horror comedy about the slow dissolution of reality and the role that both celebrity and mass-media play in our lives.
I am honestly so high as I read this that I genuinely thought for a split second while reading this that you were saying encountering the Old Ones means you're being cheated on somehow 😂

I'm pretty tolerant of most horror but even those few clips of Plague Dogs absolutely fucking broke me. I don't think I'd be able to watch it without bawling my eyes out the entire way through.
holy shit same. through this entire video the only part that affected me was him talking about plague dogs and watching the dog drown in the beginning 🥺 only to be part of an experiment 😭
I instantly started crying not even joking
Somewhere in the middle of that segment, I started crying like crazy and had to take a break. I saw this movie already and it's open, bittersweet ending doesn't make it any better for me. It took me some time to calm down, then I went and found the book the film was adapted from on my shelves, and swore to start reading it in the near future. Glad to hear this video segment has the same impact on other people.
Same here. I can watch a lot of disturbing horror but when it comes to animals..I'm extremely sensitive to their suffering. The fact that it's really happening to thousands of animals across the world in labs every day is just soul crushing.
Which is why I have yet to make it past the first page of the book.
When you said the title "Last Summer" I got a sudden memory, and now it feels like I have always remembered it.I was up past my bedtime scrolling through channels and my hand stopped when Last Summer came on. I watched through the movie and as that seagull torture scene happened, my body froze I had goosebumps all over. I couldn't move for the rest of that movie, I like repressed that memory, because I think I just couldn't handle what I watched at that age. I didn't know what the feeling of hopelessness was until I saw the look of true and utter despair on the face of that red head girl. She was totally hopeless and that just hit my young mind somewhere that was painful and stopped my heart. I can't tell if I should be mad or happy that you allowed me to remember this, so fuck you and thank you at the same time, because you helped/burdened me with this knowledge. Good video regardless
I get the thank you-fuck you sentiment because whenever I'm reminded of repressed/partially-repressed memories, I'm fascinated by the mind's ability to block something out completely for so long and move on BUT then I'm just as affected by the memory as ever. The pain/uneasiness/cringe always seems to retain the original intensity
@@Lwoods1717its insane and extremely fascinating navigating through life and understanding just how powerful and protective the brain can be as you get older, from a first hand perspective. I have pretty clear memories of some stuff happening to me, and I was told about other things that happened by the person that did those things and its just completely blank. No matter how hard I try to remember or envision it, my brain has completely blacked out and damn near erased those other events just to protect me. I'm getting kinda emotional thinking that at least someone was looking out for me lmao. It's intrinsically an egotistical concept for us humans to think so highly of ourselves, but God our existence and perceptions and subconscious functions are truly the most fascinating and wondrous things ever.

Yeah I consider those three movies to sort of "go together". They all have varying degrees of disturbing imagery and similar themes and I recommend watching all three!

It could be just me, but I consider Felidae to be the most tame of the 3. I can't comment on how it compares to most movies on this list because I haven't seen them.
I feel like Felidae's too unintentionally funny at points, unlike Watership Down and Plague Dogs who are all sorts of effed up.

There's no contrast here
The most scared I've been by a movie was Mulholland Drive. I've been watching horror literally for longer than I can remember (thanks mom and dad) and I've reached a point where I need something deeply psychologically chilling or disturbing to really stick with me. Despite Mulholland Drive not exactly being a horror movie, the directing, framing, and descent into a nightmare left me sleeping with the lights in my room on for two nights after. I watched it when I was 17. I vividly recall the tension when they find that dead body, and how moved I felt during the theatre scene with the woman singing, and how much that performance and it's implications had on the story. Obviously the last 15-20 minutes live in my mind rent free, thats David Lynch for you. I watched it, and every other David Lynch work I've ever seen, with my dad, so I had the fortune of his years of theorizing and forum reading to help explain certain parts of the movie. I never got to watch Eraserhead or Inland Empire with him, though it was on the list. I think he was really glad that the movie stuck with me so deeply, because it did the same to him when he watched it's premier in theatres all those years ago. Horror is a tricky genre, cause it's themes and tones and such can leave a lasting impact on you, for better or for worse. But as much as I joke to my friends about being scarred by my parents letting me watch horror movies growing up, I think it genuinely had an impact on how I think about the world and how I consume media. Watching a horror movie with my dad and discussing things during and after the movie, and ultimately feeling like I left with a bit more of an understanding of the world really are some of my best memories. Getting to discuss theorize about each episode of Twin Peaks: The Return with someone who had been waiting 25 years for it, and have my observations and theories affect his viewing experience, like we were building our own interpretation of it together. Sorry that went off the rails, but that is something I love about media interpretation. It feels like you can learn to understand others better through it, both from what you see on the screen and how you discuss it with others. I always meant to watch some of the movies from this video with him, but there's only so much time, and I never got around to it, but I do think when I watch them I won't do it alone, I'll have my friends there, and I'll have his memory there too.
as you probably know by know, its part of the twin peaks universe, brilliant

Please spoil it for me, I couldn't watch it, but I really want to know how it ends.
How you described Last Summer is exactly how Ringu came to me. I was going in and out of sleep, lying down watching TV at midnight. Scrolling through the channels, only boring program after another when a scene catches my attention. I don't know what program it is, it just gets me curious. My intention was to go to bed after a couple minutes but the movie just kept reeling me deeper and deeper into the plot. I ended up watching the whole movie and sitting at the end credits a little paranoid to turn off the TV. Knowing it was just a movie but also with it feeling like i had just fell asleep on the couch and dreamt it all. A surreal feeling, that no other film has managed to create for me. The aspect of just stumbling upon something great is such an exciting feeling.

I'm a native speaker of Russian and I watched Threads almost by accident when I was about 14 and at the time my english wasn't good enough to properly extract the meanings from the lines. Yet even through the language barrier it shook me to the core, so sickening and truthful to reality, that I fell sick the very evening and it took me more than two weeks to recover.

Exactly. Seeing gross, messed up stuff like that really reminds me how we humans are still animals at the end of the day. Animals who still act on our disgusting primal instincts, no matter how “advanced” we claim we are compared to other animals.
Yep. People who genuinely love, enjoy, and partake in an activity are so much more intimately familiar with the nuances and realities of that activity. You're absolutely right
Some of my favorite films surprisingly were mentioned in this video: The Plague Dogs for its incredible introspection and depiction of not just animal abuse but trauma in general, Possession for how unsettling and overpowering the force of the Divine is and how it slowly affects all the lives involved in it, and Watership Down is in fact my all time favorite film because of how powerfully it portrays its own implications of war, religion, and death.
But if you ask me, there is absolutely no film more disturbing, haunting, and scary than Come And See. A Soviet war film from 1985, it puts you in the mind of the protagonist Flyora, a teenager who gleefully joins the Soviet troops in WWII, only to be thrown into a complete whirlwind of chaos, death, and loss of hope for humanity as Nazi solders move to exterminate every Slavic civilian... and you feel *everything* he feels. The film is shot and mixed much more like a general horror film than a war film to let the viewer experience the confusion and insanity of the crumbling world around Flyora, from the first attack to the last powerful scene. I don't want to sound pretentious on behalf of so many other brilliant war films like Schindler's List and Apocalypse Now, but they simply cannot match up to the rage, anguish, and true pain that Come And See portrays. It's title says it all; it invites you to experience humans at their most evil.
I watched the film sometime ago, I think it's great. I wouldn't categorize in the horror film genre, I think it is a war film like every single other in existence, the difference with this one is that it is stripped of everything supposed to be in a war film, by that I mean the heroic narrative of the soldier and his love for his patria. The best word to describe the film imo is "Raw". The film portrays WWII in Belarus as aimless and without motive, no military success only or grand strategy, the only thing we see is Nazis killing civilians for the hell of it and the civilians reacting in a realistic manner to violence, with no embellishments, cool music, Marlon Brando or Tom Hanks. Everyone should watch the movie and if you are scared of it, don't be pussy and just do it, it's a feat in the world of cinema.
I included Come and See in my comment as one of my top recommendations for disturbing films. Nice to see someone else got so much of veiwing it like I did. I haven't met anyone irl who has seen it or even heard of it.

Threads might be one of the most brutal and important movies ever made with a total crushing ending. Because as long as nukes exist, it could happen, anywhere at anytime and your life, hopes and dreams are totally negliable. Doubtful any nuke proponent wouldnt flip after watching.
I haven't seen Threads, but I have seen The War Game from 1965. It's also a pseudo-documentary, complete with a narrator clinically describing the effects of nuclear war on Britain. It's amazing that a black and white movie can be so stark and shocking.
Its cringe. Reddit has the worst taste
Except I fail to see how fire bombings and mass gang rapes are any better? I'm not even necessarily pro nuke, but nukes have saved the world a LOT of death up to this point.
It's easy to say this while your grandpa was the one who nuked Japan. If any country deserves to be nuked it's America or Israel.
If both countries are able to destroy each other in a press of a button then the war between them is extremely unlikely. This is one of the reasons of why there was so few wars in comparison to let's say 70 years ago. A lot of lives saved by that. Stop dramatising things for no reason.

Fun facts about Un Chien Andalu (from a spanish guy ^^): not only the main purpose of both creators (Dalí and Buñuel) was to make a short without any logical sense, they also wanted to get on rich people's nerves especially, making sure of that with some imagery that was considered "forbiden" or cursed at the time.
Also (this is a really accurate theory, in my opinion), the name is a reference to Lorca, a legendary spanish poet from Andalucía (Spain) who some people think dated Dalí. Dalí then cheated on him with Buñuel and named the film after Lorca (Un chien andalu = un perro andaluz = a dog from Andalucía) to make fun of him!
Thanks for recommending this beautiful unknown pieces of media, Wolfie ^^
I know of the film because years ago Esthero did the "Heavensent" music video that was a partial remake of it.
According to wikipedia tho most of the rich elite that were supposed to be offended actually really liked the movie much to the suprise of the creators
I had the impression the name could have been an insult to a religion (which one , depends on the creator's views and affiliations) related to that period...i hope i'm wrong tho...
I was looking for a war movie and I found a Russian film ‘Come and See’. It was about a young boy who experienced the horror of World War II. I remember I thought about it a lot after watching it alone because of how scary and disturbing it was. Probably one of the movies that I won’t watch twice, including ‘Possession’. Now I’m curious to see ‘The Plague Dogs’.
The reason why I don't like horror is that it makes me sad, rather than scared or disturbed. The "killer" (be it human, natural, or supernatural) has its way with mostly innocent people and gets away scot free with absolutely no justice what-so-ever.
We get enough of that in real life. I don't need to be reminded of that.

I feel like another reason I like disturbing movies is because it makes me feel more normal. Not just in a “at least I’ll never have it THIS bad” way but because I really do have a lot of emotional struggles and trauma in my life, and movies like this help me process those kinds of feelings in a way that’s externalized instead of trapped in my own head.
I get the exact same out of it tbh, I feel like it's less of a 'it could have been worse' and more of a 'im not the only one who knows what it's like to suffer'
Makes you feel like less of an outlier in the world, and that's both heartbreaking and comforting in a way
This is a completely different form of media but I feel the same way about certain albums. Atrocity exhibition by Danny brown carried me through so much of my formative years and I didn't even understand until now that it being so fucked up and experimental and weird was helping me deal with how confusing life can be. I first heard of this idea from a video of Mos Def praising the MF Doom album Madvillainy. He heard the album and immediately bought it on vinyl without even having a record player and was just so attracted to the album because it was just as weird as he had always felt. The relationships we can have with different artforms is truly a fantastic thing

@@x-mobius0ne Yeah I probably should have clarified. By “story behind it” I guess I meant why it looked so terrible without even trying to hide it hahah I felt the effects for the most part were obviously low budget but worked in this other worldly sense. And I can understand if the intent was to make something so abstract and not comprehensible by our brains that that’s what the hellscape looked like. But I was also thinking beyond a filmmaking point, because god damn it looks hilarious. So I think it could just be a way of the director to shit on terrorists and those who believe they are carrying out acts of God. To end the film on something like that, there had to be some larger purpose behind that being the pin point.
@@sickmondo2333 I see. From what I could find out, the film was already low budget so maybe that's the best they could do.

Concrete is a movie I randomly remember occasionally from time to time.

Her kidnappers that tormented, r@p3d, and unalived her before dumping her body into a barrel and sealing it with wet concrete were given lenient sentences due to them being underaged and given new identifies after serving their sentences, much to the public’s outcry.
