Most Violent/Bloody Movies

[ExMem-LarjaThwei]

Have not mentioned Centipede because I have not seen either film, nor will I ever. I know more than I want to know already, just from reading reviews of them. [Which universally panned both films, btw.]

As for Argento, his films have never scared me. I've seen Suspiria and one other, so bad I dont even remember what it was called. Both of them struck me as poorly made; they tried hard to shock but never came anywheres near it.

I was really surprised, having heard Suspiria especially praised to the skies and beyond. "Repetitive" and "pedestrian" are adjectives that come to mind. The soundtrack was annoying.

Geez. Try a diaper change there, kiddo. You can resume postwhoring and referring to yourself as "we" after you're dry again.



I never seen either myself. Had them described to me.
Given the love of gratuitous torture porn today and the generally neophyte tastes here I was surprised no one had mentioned it.



So you've seen a whopping two of his films and can't even remember both titles . . . sounds like your memory may be impairing your ability as a film critic. His stuff can seem dated to someone born after 1990 . . .

Go watch Tenebre, Inferno, Mother Of Tears, and The Bird with the Crystal Plumage.
Or don't. Your ignorance is no one's loss but your own.

I watched both Human Centipede films and thought they were laughable. The first wasn't even disgusting and the second though much more gruesome after a while became so over the top with the gore it became funny.

And you can resume being terrible. So we're all happy. Except you. Because you're terrible.

I know this isn't the kind of movie for this list but when it came out Robocop was the most graphically violent movie I had ever seen. I saw it on my 9th birthday in 1987 and I had to cover my eyes a few times. As time went on I got used it but then I saw the director's cut in 2004 and that had extra violence like seeing how Murphy lost his whole right arm and the bullet to the head scene and the initial ED209 scene were longer and more graphic. To this day I have seen Suspiria and Old Boy and other graphic foreign movies, even Joe Pesci's beat down in Casino, but Robocop comes to mind first for me. I guess it was just the fact that I was younger when I saw it.

It's funny you mention Casino, but I recall seeing it in the theater where when they put the guy's head in the vice it actually shows his eye pop out. In subsequent viewings it never shows that part.

Anything Lucio Fulci is pretty sick to watch.
I've never seen the first one, but Nekromantik 2 is insanely violent and disturbing.
Salo or The 120 Days of Sodom has some pretty sick stuff in it too:

Especially the coprophagia

What motivation would I have to sit through *more* of Argento's questionable cinematic stylings? My inference was that the second film was so forgettable, I could not even remember the title. Not exactly a ringing endorsement. It wasn't even BAD ENOUGH for me to remember, and a more damning indictment could hardly be found.

This is sort of like my having said: "I dislike Kim Kardashian, finding her both repetitive and pedestrian." [aside: And that is being nice about it. My real opinion is considerably more pithy.]

You: "Go watch the entire Kardashian tv series, or dont. Your ignorance is no one's loss but your own."

This is predicated on the idea that I wish to become more knowledgable about Kardashian..... OR here, about Argento's questionable legacy, which I hold to be about on an equal level of worthiness. So I think I must decline your invitation, thanks anyway tho.

I'd say it belongs at the TOP of this list.
Either for its time, or for this time, or for ALL time, Robocop is a wildly bloody and violent movie.
Which is fitting, since it's primarily a satire on American gung-ho culture.

The sequence where step-van dude gets melted by the toxic waste and then pasted like an overripe tomato on Boddicker's windshield will forever be a "shudder-it-off" scene for me.

That's what is called a false equivalence, squint.

But keep on chooglin' . . . even a dead clock is right twice a day.*






*once if it's digital.
