The most startiling movie scene ever!!!

[florige]

For me it has to have been the scene from "The Forgotten". For those of you who've seen that movie you know EXACTLY what scene I'm referring to. If you haven't seen it check it out. And don't worry, you'll know what I'm talking about when it happens. What other movies made you jump out of your seat? That one was the only one that caught me that much by surprise. (Oh and make sure you are watching it at a decent volume)

- car crash scene in 'The Mothman Prophecies'
- end/dream sequence in 'Carrie'
- the sloth victim not quite dead in 'Se7en'
- the clown attack scene in 'Poltergeist'

but by far, the one that didn't necessarily make me jump too much, but gave me weird chills for weeks:

re: Carrie...and then having your mom hide in a closet and grab you as you walk by right after watching the end of the movie.

I still won't watch Se7en again. That movie was too disturbing.

Se7en is one of my top three movies! I love that movie. I can't get with those demonized movies. They creep me out probably because most of that crap really happened. The only movie that I got through was the one with Denzel Washington, and Dan Ackroyd. I forget the name. But my gf convinved me to watch it and I did. But afterwards I couldn't get that freakin Rolling Stones song out of my head for weeks. (time is on my side) :lol The Final Destinations aren't too bad for me because you kind of brace yourself from when death starts hunting them down. So you know its coming. But I'm telling you in this movie Forgotten I and everyone else I talked to got caught TOTALLY by surprise by this one scene. Actually that movie has a couple of them, but the one scene I think EVERYBODY in the freakin theater jumped. Me and my gf watched it on DVD and she literally yelled out... :lol

How about in Frailty when Fenton takes the ax to his dad (I might be off on this because I havent seen it in awhile, but I know I jumped when someone took and ax to someone when the camera was panned away)

[CuckingFunt]

I startle REALLY easily, so my list would be too long. The Sloth cough in Se7en ranks pretty high, though.

[CuckingFunt]

Oh, and I'll take my lumps and admit to being one of the few people on the planet who got sucked into the Blair Witch Project enough to have jumped at the guy standing in the corner at the very end.

[Mister Sinister]

The movie is Fallen. lol @ Dan Akroyd in the movie. It was John Goodman.

Scene that freaked me out was the pistol whipping in Pans Labrynth. Pretty graphic scene. There is also a few scenes in The Grudge that made me crap my pants.

[PeterBurns]

The curb stomp in American History X.


Yeah....The Curb Stomp was nuts
Also, the Nude Wrestling scene in Borat

How about in Something About Mary, when you see the old lady's rack?

:lol Man I was way off. Yeah thats it though. I sat through it because I wanted to see how it was going to end, but other than that I say no sir to those type of movies. That crap is too real for my taste...

yeah....i think you are right. either way its a pretty fucked up scene.

[Cry Havoc]

For me, nothing will ever compare to the opening scene of Saving Private Ryan.

Sorry guys/girls, I like scary movies just like anyone else, but my brain has a certain suspension of disbelief that goes along with it every time I know I'm about to watch a Thriller. I let myself believe it's real, but deep, deep down, I have that bit of reserve that keeps me from totally buying in.

Saving Private Ryan is absolutely visceral. It's shocking. And it's an accurate representation of what really happened that day, to the extent that it gave many veterans devastating flashbacks. My dad is a Vietnam vet and he absolutely abhors that scene, and respects it at the same time.

Never in my life have I ever wanted to vomit upon watching a movie. But I was damned close to leaving the room in SPR's opening battle sequence. Sad, horrific, and utterly, utterly brutal. A horror movie afterwards just seems tame to me in comparison.

[Xolotl]

I agree with the opening scene from Saving Private Ryan, but for me the worst one was when the guy was fighting the German and the scared American guy didn't help his friend and the German just slowly put the knife into his chest and told him to be quiet, then he just walked by the scared American guy coming down the stairs. That scene still bothers me today

[mrsmaalox]

When I first read this thread I also thought about Saving Private Ryan, but quickly blanked it out of my mind because it made such a huge impact on me. All I ever really experienced about that war was that I had 2 old uncles that were at Normandy and both of them were CRAZY. No wonder. The only other time I had ever had those same feelings was at the Viet Nam Wall. I read recently that up to now the number of Viet Nam vets who have committed suicide is equal to the number that died in that war!!! And for as much progress as has been made, we now find ourselves in the same old boat. My husband is an Army psychiatrist and believe me, the situation now is BAD. I'm scared that the emotional/mental/physical burden on our young (and I mean 17 to 25 yo) fighters will soon be too much for this country to bear. Sorry to get off topic, but I am feeling a little bitter/sad this Veteran's Day.

I meant that they were going to make comments about me digging on an older woman (she's 56 yrs old).

I was expecting comments on necrophilia and what not.

But, fuck it, she's still fucking hot.

Crossing the Rio Grande River.

It's quite a sight to see.

It was the butt of his pistol.

[Cry Havoc]

Oh, I forgot to mention one.

It may seem silly to some, but to anyone who's watched "Grave of the Fireflies", that movie is absolutely shocking. There's not a particular scene that really stands out above the rest, but the entire movie is a very different perspective of war than most of us are used to seeing. It should be required viewing for everyone who has studied, been involved in, or authorized a war.

Paul Sheldon's "Number 1 fan" smashing his ankles with a sledgehammer in Misery.

That was the only scene of any movie based on a Stephen King novel that was actually worse than what he'd written in the book.

[1369]

The entire 129 minutes of the abortion called "Starship Troopers".

How this steaming pile of regurgitated elephant crap ever saw the light of day is beyond me.

But then again, it did have a nekkid Dina Meyer in the shower.

Meh, movie wasn't that bad I guess.

[SpursWoman]

The scene with the 2 naked dudes wrestling around the hotel room in Borat wasn't very pleasant to watch, either. If by "startiling" you mean unexpected and nausea-inducing. :spin

[mardigan]

As Disgruntled mentioned, the castration scene in Hard Candy is really hard to watch, you never think they are going to do it until its done. The scene in 28 Days Later when he gauges the guys eyes out with his thumbs (also done disturbingly in the sequel) was horrifying to me.

Putting the block between his ankles and going to town was just worse for me than just cutting them clean off for some reason.

I saw that at the theater when it first came out, and when the movie was over and the lights came on, everyone very gingerly got to their feet...and you could see it in their faces they were expecting their ankles not to support them. That was awesome. :wow :lol

Somehow, I think that an axe cutting through bone and severing my feet only to have my torturer use a blow torch to stop the bleeding is just a tad bit worse than having a sledgehammer slammed against my ankles.

But, I can appreciate the horror of the sledgehammer thing.

[j-6]

How about when the lounge singer showed her crank in the Crying Game?

Do you want the sledgehammer or the axe for your left foot?

[florige]

I've seen some of the movies you guys have mentioned and I'll agree that some of them made me flinch. But I really don't think that any of them can hold a candle to that Forgotten scene. (if we are just talking about jumping) not all that horrifying or anything.

I didn't say that the movie ws good (even though I thought it was) when I saw it in the theaters everyone around me was like holy crap. We are talking about the same movie with Julianne Moore?

As Disgruntled mentioned, the castration scene in Hard Candy is really hard to watch, you never think they are going to do it until its done. I decided to watch this movie after I read about it here and... well it was disturbing. very disturbing.

If you haven't seen American Gangster you don't want to keep reading.. the part where Frank Lucas just shoots that guy in the head in front of everyone. That was definitely startling!!!! I jumped so high and my mouth dropped to the floor. I was like that for about a minute after that happened. :lol It just happened so fast.

There are scenes all over "Schindler's List" that are far more disturbing than that.

Oh yea, "Hard Candy" is pretty damn good . . . and creepy.
