Hangie Creepiest: In Spy Kids when they play those flooples or whatever's speach backwards. That always just disturbed me .

Cringeworthy: Anything following a sex scene in Ilsa, She Wolf of the SS.

bigtimecow creepiest - i'm not entirely sure, but listening to the joker speak in the dark knight sends chills up my spine. another mention for mothman prophecies, that entire movie creeps me out. especially the scene when someone recaps their "experience" with the mothman, and you can kind of see the figure of the being. gah, it's f*cking creeeeeeeeeeeeeepy

cringeworthy - i'm not sure, but any movie when they show someone's hand get broken or something usually makes me cringe

Kitsa Oh, god, that preacher in Poltergeist II was fucking creepy.

IRL he was a hippie, though.

That entire movie was a mistake. Most cringeworthy all the way.

Creepiest would have to be any shot of the clown doll from Poltergeist. No thanks.

Kitsa The talking typewriter anus-bugs in Naked Lunch kinda creeped me out a little.

Then again, Roy Scheider with boobs kinda creeped me out a little too.

Ohhh...

That's a movie I'll probably be avoiding...

Kitsa I thought that about some parts of Life is Beautiful, too.

BurntToShreds Creepiest: In Schindler's List, when Amon is out on the balcony in the morning. He's shirtless, suspender straps hanging down, and smoking a cigarette. He grabs his sniper rifle, and shoots two Jews in the head. Afterward, he goes back in to take a leak. It's just how relaxed he is about it.

Harry Lime I've never seen Red Room, however, after watching the trailer i'm not sure i'd want to
Dec 6th, 2008 09:44 PM
Kitsa What about the broken glass scene in Red Room?
Dec 6th, 2008 09:01 PM
Harry Lime The Dali inspired orgy/human consumption climax to Society (1989) really creeped me out. Shitty movie but kick-ass special fx by Screaming Mad George.

Here's a taste

As for most cringeworthy, did anyone see Takashi Miike's installment of Masters of Horror? The episode is titled Imprint and Showtime banned it from airing it due to it's cringeworthyness. One unflinchingly graphic torture scene was quite brutal, as I was watching it I said to myself, "I am really glad they didn't put this on TV"

Quick sub-genre: Most Gag-worthy scene

The puss in the custard scene from Peter Jackson's Dead Alive (1992) remains the only scene from a film that made me gag. Many have made me feel like gagging but this one took the cake.

dude that scene is so crazy. I didn't really know turtles looked like that on the inside ;/

anything with a woodshipper is pretty gross ;o there's this one movie called eternal evil of asia where this guy keeps cursing people and for example he turns this one guy into a dick head but he turns this one guy into a HUNGRY GHOST so he starts eatting himself and everybody around him and he eats his forearm and is walking around with a bloody bony arm
there's also like a flying daoist sex fight in that movie it's pretty ridiculous
just imagine a guy doing some bitch doggy style while flying through the air at some guy

Speaking of Amityville Horror, I don't like scenes where they just have two red eyes staring out of the darkness.
I know! I think that the scariest horror is the most subtle. Little noises, seeing things moving out of the corner of your eye, eyes in the dark. It leaves it more to the imagination and makes it creepier.

Kitsa Speaking of Amityville Horror, I don't like scenes where they just have two red eyes staring out of the darkness. I think they did that in Mothman Prophecies too. The mothman stuff in general creeps me out because my grandparents live very near there. And I didn't like the bridge collapse scene where you could see the car headlights shining up through the water- that almost made me sick.

When I was a kid, that wolf's eyes in Neverending Story creeped me out, and (20 year old spoilers)

...

Artex dying...also freaked me out and made me feel sick.

ZeldaQueen That reminds me of another scene in a movie that I haven't actually watched, but I read about it.

It's a movie Nicholas Cage is in where his character is crazy to the point of being violent and dangerous. For some reason, the character thinks he's turning into a vampire and at one point in the movie, Cage grabs and eats a live cochroach for the film. Supposedly he had to do it three times, as the scene took three takes.

Tadao Oh wait, it was staring at the girl through a window, I think Amityville had it on a rocking chair. NVM
Dec 2nd, 2008 11:57 PM
ZeldaQueen I read about a movie called "Dolly Dearest" where a girl gets a possessed doll. Maybe that was it?

Or, I believe that there's an evil female doll later in the "Chuckie" series.

That might have been Amityville Horror

Most cringeworthy: In Cloverfield, when that chick exploded. I was cringing, and laughing my ass off at the same time. It's an awkward sensation.
She was my favorite character.

ZeldaQueen Creepiest - In the original movie, "The Haunting", when Elenor is in the dark and thinks that she is holding Theodora's hand while she hears children crying. When the lights come on, Theodora wasn't holding her hand at all.

Cringeworthy - In the remake of "The Haunting" (it had a different name, but I can't remember it now), when Owen Wilson's character is thrown into the fireplace by the ghost and his head is knocked off by the flue.

Zomboid Creepiest - The twins in the hallway in the shining. That was the first thing to ever permanently scar me, and maaaaan, it scarred me badly for a while.

Cringeworthy - Probably something from Salo. Some of the shit-eating scenes were pretty bad, but so were some of the rapes. Fucking hell, that whole movie is just a really good way to feel disgusted for a good while.

Asila Creepy: Most of Event Horizon. Maybe I'm a pussy, but "I am home" :fade to black freaks me out everytime

Cringeworthy: I'm a pussy, yeah? Sweeney Todd, when he slowly slits the throat of the italian barber. UUUURGH
Dec 2nd, 2008 01:08 AM
Mockery Pednaud, you just saw Irreversible for the first time? Wow... yeah, that one definitely had me reeling. Fucked up beyond belief in many ways.

Creepiest: I still maintain that Prince of Darkness is the creepiest I've ever seen. Dark Night of the Scarecrow always creeped me out a lot too.

Cringeworthy: as a few have stated, Irreversible would have to be at the top of my list. Also, it's not a good date movie.
