What's the most disgusting piece of media (contentwise) you've enjoyed?

[nondescript]

Anything on Facebook; it needs a better brain to mouth filter. I've seen all this on there and more, and people for some, against others, and debating them all. Seriously, either stop giving 10-year olds smartphones or add a screen asking the poster "Do you REALLY want your friends to tell everyone you just said that?"

Probably the only thing I can think of with a truly shocking moment that I still enjoyed is The Revenant. The scene with the bear is one of the most brutal moments I have ever seen in a film. Yet, you can't look away. And they don't sugarcoat the aftermath, either. This isn't torture porn or meant to shock. It actually drives the plot forward from there. And it's a beautifully shot film. A lesser film would have lost me on that moment.

Just saw The Revenant today, and yeah, it's quite squick-worthy in places. One of the grimiest, dirtiest, heaviest, most raw, grim and brutal viewing experiences I've ever had. The final fight scene reminded me a lot of the Dan Dority fight from Deadwood's 3rd season with its sense of weight and grime. The bear scene had me genuinely wincing, especially when it was raking Leo's back. Here in Scandinavia it's got a 16+ rating, but IMO it could easily have been 18+. Not only was the violence raw and ugly, but the atmosphere of fighting for your life was utterly overbearing.

Yeah. It finally made me stop thinking of Leonardo DiCaprio as "the guy from Titanic". He's been great in some amazing movies, but I've always had that as a sort of shorthand for him in my mind. No longer.

My only complaint was that the CGI on the animals was a little lacking. Thus, I never thought they were there. Not even the bear in that scene. And it was still among the most brutal things in film.

I refuse to watch the Saw movies and such as they are just torture porn.

What if you just watched the first movie, since it's the only one that actually tries to have a "logical" plot?

Kinda pointless. I know the big twist simply because the film is so famous. I'd really just be watching for the torture porn, which I am not a fan of. So why bother?

I guess the manga of Battle Royale is the only thing I can remember as something I found disgusting, i'm pretty hard to gross out just from gore but volume one of BR is horrible.

I mean there was a Visual Novel simply titled Yandere and yeah it pretty much does what it says on the tin, typical romance VN but all of the girls are hardcore yanderes, it was some legit psychological fucking horror, holy shit. I got decently far into it but then Meiko was like "top kek, i'm going do some disgusting shit to myself for fun" and I quietly uninstalled. Well played game, you baited me into picking the one that looked least threatening then fucked me for it.

Seriosuly the gore in that manga was crazy pretty much every death scene had a gorey end to it, no open caskets.

I also like to volunteer Rikioh both the film and the manga makes fist of the north star look like Fairy Tail in comparesion

 

[RedDeadFred]

From Filthy Frank, the Hair Cake.

Horrifying, but I laughed a lot. I may have gagged a bit though...

 

[Fox12]

Well, berserk has all of the above and more, but it's a work of art, so I'm not sure if it qualifies. I mean, it's not shameless.

The most lurid thing I've probably "enjoyed" is Song of Saya. It was weirdly fascinating in its awfulness. It wasn't good by any stretch of the imagination, but it was sort of interesting. Like a train full of amputated feet crashing into a blind baby orphanage. And then the survivors get eaten by cannibals who look like Tim Curry from The Rocky Horror Picture Show. And then they start fucking each other. I'm bad with metaphor.

Which one? The one involving Jigsaw or the one involving why the "victims" were even there in the first place? If it's just the formal that you know, then you can still watch it for the latter... Can't say the same for the other way around, though, unless you're actually trying to watch the Saw saga...

I suppose Corpse Party, both the Vita version with audio and the anime OVAs, would qualify for the most gruesome work that I thoroughly enjoyed. Watching and hearing grade school kids being stabbed, sliced, drowned, hanged, eaten, smothered, and crushed to death tested my limits more than I predicted.

Along the same lines, Elfen Lied (anime) was equal parts fucked up and fucking great, with themes ranging from rape to child abuse to many things in between. Like a train wreck that just kept getting worse, I couldn't pull my eyes away until it was over.

I think you have the wrong impression about the first film because the later films are torture porn. The first film is a lot more psychological in nature. That is, "two people stuck in a horrifying situation" as opposed to the later films, which are, "a group of people stuck in a horrifying situation...as an excuse to watch them die in grisly ways."

If the twist you're referring to is specifically for the first film, and not the series as a whole, then, yes, it's a major spoiler that would kill all of the effectiveness of the reveal, but the film still has plenty of merits that, in my opinion, warrant a viewing. It's not torture porn, unlike its sequels. It's not exactly easy to watch at times, but there's a HUGE thematic difference between showing torture and torture porn.

 

[EyeReaper]

I'm the kind of guy who likes to find really horrible hentai games. Like, the sick guro, ryona stuff. No, I'm not aroused by it, but the fact that other people are is just oh so intriguing, you know? anywhere else, A schoolgirl impaled on a stake, stomach gashed open, organs spilling out would be horror. Here? it's what's getting someone off.

That being said, I think Fairy Fighting takes the cake. There's only so far a 4" stalagmite should be able to go into a 5" fairy. And spoiler? it's not all the way. Bodies do not stretch like that.

 

[DudeistBelieve]

The Battle Royale manga... I actually have the ultimate Editions sitting on my bookcase. Between the gore and a rape.... yeah it's a pretty disgusting dark read...

But I like the love story between Shuuya and Noriko. Shogo's whole character arch.

That or that hentai visual novel about the dude who falls in love with the Eldritch Abomination.

 

[Scarim Coral]

Heh for some reason I view "disgusting" as in the likes of South Park and Family Guy.

OT- The torture scene in Audition was just so cringy as if you can feel like it's happening to you too (the sound the string makr)!

 

[Level 7 Dragon]

Shadow Warrior, the original. So much misogynistic humour and fake asian accents. Nontheless, it made me laugh.

Well of course I had to look that up. And hoo boy, that one's a doozy and then some. Things that happen in it is something I'd imagine Slaanesh doing if the chaos god materialized in our world. Hot damn!

 

[Evonisia]

I wanted to see at least a few more seconds of the blood orgy from "Event Horizon".

 

[sageoftruth]

What, you mean like hentai or something?

Because when it comes to actual fucked up, brutal, horrid, mind scarring shit, I don't think I've ever genuinely enjoyed that. Even with something like Franken Fran, it's more akin to a morbid curiosity that keeps me reading rather than enjoyment. And afterward I don't feel in any way enriched by it.

I guess Berserk comes the closest, since it certainly isn't for the faint of heart, as it features rape, torture, and people generally coming to a grisly end, but the gratuity never takes over from the absolutely brilliant story and characters.

I was going to say Battle Royale the manga, but I've got to agree with you. I enjoyed Berserk far more. On the other hand, the former made me far more uncomfortable.

Damn, bartholen! You beat me on it!
The funny thing is that, omitting the sex scenes, it's a descent Lovecraftian horror novel. Add to that the background images, music, voices and sound effects; and it becomes pretty engaging. I don't know if it was my usual delight for eldritch horrors or just morbid curiosity what kept me going.

I pay attention to the political scene in the United States. Does that count?

 

[Ravinoff]

Crossed. It's the kind of thing that, if you were reading on your computer and someone happened to walk in, you'd switch the tab to porn because that would be easier to explain.

It's a comic with an... interesting take on the zombie apocalypse genre. People who are infected get a distinct + shaped scar across their faces and are stripped of all inhibitions and shame and obsessed with inflicting as much pain and suffering as possible. If you're not a fan of torture, rape, cannibalism, mutilation, dismemberment, disembowelment, necrophilia, pedophilia, incest, suicide, bestiality, assault with a severed horse penis or clowns then it's probably not for you.

Don't Google image search it unless you have a strong stomach.

Stole my pick, I was sold on those comics as soon as I saw the guy holding a dolphin up with knives buried in it's body while fucking it in it's blowhole and later someone beating a woman to death with a baby, it's f***ing hype.

But yes its rather shocking and all that and very gruesome recommend 10/10

Crossed is...if you take it at all seriously, you're doing it wrong (and probably the kind of person who would protest about it). But if you get that kind of humor, it's fucking hilarious. It's basically the comic equivalent of Sharknado, the kind of over-the-top absurdity that's usually scribbled on the back of edgy high school student's notebooks. There's plenty of stuff to analyze as satire and the like, but honestly, if you can't appreciate a six-foot-tall fatass cannibal in a biker outfit beating people to death with a severed horse penis (and yelling "HORSECOCK!" the entire time), I feel bad for your sense of humor.

More on-topic...probably Uber, which I need to check into to see if it's still on hiatus. Short version of the plot is in 1945, Germany discovers a way to create superhumans with immense physical abilities and energy powers (matter distortion, plasma-y blasts and more). The Allies immediately retaliate in kind with their own superhumans, and things get real ugly, real fast. A German Uber basically turns an American one inside-out while he's still alive, the Soviets mass-apply catalyst (fatal to anyone without the Uber gene marker) to their own troops and POWs, and the Brits kind of make a Hulk lookalike by tampering with activation levels. There's plenty more to it than that, but it's very gory and so far, the Nazis are kinda winning.

That said, the pre-hiatus teaser/cliffhanger/whatever is a German Uber essentially suicide-bombing a meeting of the allied leadership in Europe suggests shit is about to be crushed in a fucking epic turn, as it's revealed that George motherfucking Patton is an activated Uber, and as a result survived the attack. And is now well and truly pissed.

Well, when I first watched it, I thought 28 Days Later qualified all right - the eyes, the eyes! Watch where you're waving those thumbs, pal!

 

[Death Carr]

I don't actively seek out the gore for the sake of gore torture porn shit, cause most of the time I can't enjoy any narrative content it may contain because of the unnecessary gore

But I would say the goriest piece of media I have consumed would be the novel Valhalla by Ari Bach, with the training for the spec-ops style teams the main character is part of involving wading waist deep through a river of human remains and blood, and a graphic torture scene where the main character uses her toes to rearrange a pile of her severed fingers to give the character torturing her the finger.

It's been a few months since I read it and I don't recall any particular point making me queasy, it is a delightfully light-ish weight gore action novel that I would actually recommend to everyone (and it's the first in a three part series where the author promises that each novel is gorier than the last)

 

[Ogoid]

David Cronenberg's The Fly [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Fly_%281986_film%29].

I enjoyed it, I think it's an excellent film, but I'd probably need more than a few shots of some really strong stuff if I was to try and sit through it again.
