... Can't do Yogi Bear. That scene whether was a reference, a call back, or a sick joke- it was too vile for my tastes.
It'd be like going in to see Captain America: Winter Soldier expecting action and some drama ... only for a scene to involve Black Widow getting a rectal examination in a graphic manner. Like, you didn't expect it nor does it make a lick of sense for the scene to happen in a movie like this. I went in to see a horror movie, not a hentai scene involving a black slug going into a teenage girl like what the hell?
I hope that makes sense. You can't have your cake and eat it too, especially if you smear the strawberry cake with peanut butter.
That comparison doesn't work, one is a family-friendly action movie and one is a horror/thriller/slasher flick. You can't agree to watch it and then have any right to be surprised when something vile happens on-screen, now that's a correct usage of "having one's cake and eating it too". And she was not a teen-aged girl, but a fully grown woman struggling with a heroin addiction, and it's not comparable to hentai because it wasn't meant to be sexually titillating. Except maybe to some very demented individuals.
And if it helps, I'm pretty sure that scene was meant to be a metaphor for possession, I don't think she went through the entire movie with an actual, physical demon vine inside her womb. Especially since she gets cured from her possession later.
Honestly, just be glad seeing things like that
does make you uncomfortable. It'd be pretty worrysome if it didn't.
OT: I'm seeing a lot of teases in this thread! You can't dangle these scenes in front of us like a tasty worm on a hook and not show us. So I've taken the liberty of scaring a few up for those of us who want to exorcise our movie/videogame demons
Keep in mind, I'm not trying to re-traumatize anyone here, so don't click unless you want to be grossed out, appaled, scared and/or triggered in some fashion. This is more for the morbidly curious such as myself. Click at your own risk.

Not a fan of the eye part in Dead Space 2 either. I've never screwed it up--nor have I seen clips of people screwing it up because oh God, why?--but I always look away just before the needle goes in because ew...

Silent Hill movie, where Pyramid Head tears off the girl's skin and then throws her remains against the door. I literally shouted in the theater, "Oooooh SNAP!" because it was so gross (I don't swear in public).
Thankfully, it was just me, my friend, and two old ladies sitting in the front who looked like they were in their sixties or seventies.

Annnnd this is one of the few that makes me genuinely uncomfortable. Good gravy, this one is just demented, fair warning for those of you who haven't seen it.

Just for good measure, I'll add one of my favorites, incidentally from one of my favorite movies. The infamous tooth torture scene from Oldboy.
