Scary movies – Every genre of film has its own outliers, movies that burn a hole into your brain for all the wrong reasons. They are the movies that scar you, make you cringe when brought up in conversation and make you never want to see them again. People as a whole have always had a fascination toward the macabre, gruesome or tortuous things. Examples of this would be people paying to see pictures of dead bodies, going to freak show circuses and playing with a Ouija board in a cemetery.

The following list is full of movies that had shocking themes, gross outs or emotionally charged moments. These types of films are important culturally, because they are often the conversation starter, “I know exactly where I was in my life when watching that crazy movie.”
For a movie to make this list does not mean it was bad. On the contrary, for the most part, it might mean that it played with your emotions the way it was supposed to and deserves more accolades than it has received. Most of the movies on this list deserve to be seen in multiple viewings. This list includes anything from bloody murders, to worldwide tragedy, to cannibalism and everything in between. If the “water cooler” type of discussions still takes place, these are the movies we all bring up and then whisper about as the boss walks by. All that said, these movies are downright disturbing and maybe one viewing is enough.
12. I Spit On Your
Roger Ebert famously reviewed this film giving it a 0 out of 4 stars rating and called it, “The worst film ever made.” In the film, an aspiring writer is repeatedly gang-raped, humiliated and left for dead by four men whom she methodically hunts down as she seeks her revenge. I Spit On Your Grave, though not a good movie, incited conversations as well as controversies, getting released when aspects of the Feminist movement were really hitting its stride. The plot alone is what gets people riled up. That being said, the men portrayed in the film are disgusting and the idea that a man could look up to their actions seems very far fetched. If one feels like they have to take a shower after watching a movie, it is probably pretty hard to translate any part of that movie into one’s daily life. It is best to forget. Seriously, forget.
