    Requiem for a Dream...I have a love/hate relationship with that movie. It is so well done, but it takes me a while to recover after watching it!

    For some reason I have difficulty watching the first Homeward Bound...even though it was a happy ending.

    And The It...I watched that movie right after being chased by a clown at a local fair and have had an irrational fear of clowns ever since. *shudder*

    I agree about American Me... BUT the worst ts that movie Precious.....

    Oh yeah!! Precious WAS the absolute worst. It was kind of like a train wreck in the sense of you knew it was awful but you couldn't stop watching it,

    The Killing Fields. [1984]

    A photographer is trapped in Cambodia during tyrant Pol Pot's bloody "Year Zero" cleansing campaign, which claimed the lives of two million "undesirable" civilians.


    I was like 10 when I saw it.... traumatizing. o.O

    For Colored Girls - I think I cried through the entire thing.

    Was angry, cried and cried again, that movie was too much for me to handle. Also Precious was a bit too much, I got way too emotional. Those are the kind of movies that I wouldn't watch a second time!!!

    Katyn, that really was the most depressing film I've ever seen. Pan's Labyrinth I also found upsetting, but then war is brutal - if I go see films about war I should expect it really.

    Event Horizon gave me the shivers the first time I saw it.

    The Fourth Kind really freaked me out when I first saw it, but not as much now.

    I think my tear ducts imploded through P.S. I Love You. Too sad to ever watch again.

    And this one movie I saw when I was a kid REALLY freaked me out, I was about 12. I don't remember the name of it, but it was sci-fi. People were either at some sort of base or on a ship out at sea and something took it over. All these bodies were hanging from the ceiling, and there was this man whose face was completely gone and just a skull but he was still alive and aware. His wife was part of the rescue team or whatever and walked up to him and said his name, and he kind of recognized her. But he was a SKULL. Yeah, freaked me out enough to remember it 13 years later.

    There are a few but the first one that came to my head was Atonement. It really depressed me.

    Meet Joe Black. It's one of my favorites, but it's a horrible movie to watch right after your dad dies.

    Se7en. Coincidentally, I was seven when I saw it. Yea, my parents didn't always use the best discretion when it came to acceptable movies. I love it now, though.

    Where the Red Fern Grows. Read the book, too. Cried for days.

    Marley and Me...my black lab that I had had since I was a child died not too long after I saw that movie. Ugggghh.

    The Hills Have Eyes. Horrible movie to watch before going on a road trip through the desert. UGH.

    The Ring. I wouldn't watch TV for weeks after seeing that movie.

    The Duchess. WHY ARE MOVIES SO DEPRESSING?

    What Dreams May Come. Again, horrible movie to watch right after your dad has died.

    The Exorcist. Another movie I saw way too young. I was convinced Linda Blair lived under my bed.

    Bambi. Screw you, Disney.

    Atonement. Again..WHY ARE MOVIES SO DEPRESSING?!

    The worst part of that movie was the reality of it. **** like that goes down everyday!! So sad!!!

    "Where the Red Fern Grows" and "Old Yeller" destroyed me as a kid. Never been able to watch them again.

    I read the book "Where The Red Fern Grows" and your description of destroyed was right... I never could bring myself to watch the movie.

    Last house on the left ( think that is the correct name).

    My husband and I saw this at the theater. The rape scene bothered me for a LONG time.

    The movies that I can't forget, and why my husband has banned me from picking Netflix movies are:

    We need to talk about Kevin
    Zero Day

    Hotel Rwanda. I cried for days after seeing it.
    I second The Butterfly Effect.

    Omg. I forgot about the butterfly effect. My best friend and I hysterically cried for like 15 minutes. Her dad thought we were insane.

    I've read that book so many times, I still cry. Read it to my son, we were both crying by the end.

    Movies though, Toy Story 3. Seriously, happy ending to a kids movie. WTF?

    Boys don't cry

    ---sooo depressing
  • My Girl....I was 11 when I saw it. Thomas J dying and all the other ****ty parts of being beginning puberty. Ugh. Even though it has a 'happy' ending the whole film just left me feeling unsettled and not looking forward to getting older.

    Feeling awful:
    Poltergeist. Great movie, but I had nightmares the entire night.
    Truth or Dare. I felt like I needed to take a shower afterward. Uggghhhh.
