    Mystic River and American History X. Those are both great movies, but ones I can only watch on rare occasions.

    The King of Scotland.

    The image of that body on the table with its arms and legs cut off stayed with me for a long time.

    Boys don't cry

    ---sooo depressing

    This one too! We used to watch movies in my Gender & Sexuality class in college, and this was the first one we watched. We were supposed to discuss it after, but the whole class was so depressed and speechless after that the professor just dismissed us for the day.

    Natural Born Killers - I came out of that theater just dazed.
    Hotel Rwanda - we take so much for granted.
    The Ring - Any kind of static, radio or tv, would freak me out. I've never been so unnerved by white noise.
    My Best Friend's Wedding - Why did George have to be gay?
    GI Joe - WTF was that? My childhood felt violated.

    This one's going way back, but does anyone remember that made-for-TV movie "I know my first name is Steven." I think what upset me most was knowing that after all that poor kid went through his life was cut so short.

    Blue Valentine with Michelle Williams and Ryan Gosling. It was such a depressing movie. When my friend and I left the theater we were so down we had absolutely nothing left to say to each other.

    Ohh, I forgot about this one. But yes, I completely agree. Even though I LOVE it. The first time I watched it, I made it through the whole movie without crying and being okay, but as soon as the credits started rolling, I started sobbing uncontrollably for a good five or ten minutes. It was intense.

    Mine was definitely Requiem For A Dream. I was not okay for a long time after watching that.

    Marley & Me.


    I had just had my dog put down the year before and swore I would never witness another euthanization. Didn't know about the ending of that movie. I think I bawled for 2 hours.

    Last House on the Left
    Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

    Both had viciously-accurate rape scenes. I had to shut my eyes or fast forward through those parts. I've never been assaulted before, but those scenes just seemed so realistic.

    Let me tell you, trying to repair the damage Requiem did by watching Labyrinth was a bad choice.

    The worst that's ever happened to me was the Tracey Fragments.

    "Alpha Dog" was a pretty messed up movie. Just the realness of the situation is what was the most disturbing. Poor kid :'(
