I have seen a Serbian film and 120 days of Sodium.

Can you recommend any more?
 
120 days of Sodium.
:rotfl:

No offence intended but that's probably one of the funniest typos (auto correct?) I've ever seen, relative to the actual title of that particular film!
 
Some that come to mind:

Irreversible
Ichi the Killer
Cannibal Holocaust
The Texas Chain Saw Massacre
Midsommar
Legally Blonde 2: Red, White & Blonde
 
Jesus Rolls.

Guaranteed nightmares and waking up in cold sweats for weeks.
 
old movies that I think are just disturbing

Hostel
Serbian Film
Audition
original Suspiria
Human Centipede
Society
Street Trash

the people that make those movies, i swear theyre not right in the head or something.
 
For me part of what made Cannibal holocaust so disturbing is that animals were actually killed in it, which just added to the reality of it.
Not a film but some of the TV show Hannibal was the most f-ed up s I've ever seen.
A Serbian film and salo were both horrible
 
seeing Human Centipede (made in 2009) and A Serbian Film (2010), described as "old movies" is the scariest thing in this thread
 
I think there's a fine line sometimes between what we describe as scary and disturbing. The horror genre can sometimes be hard to define, especially nowadays with torture porn and the like.

A Serbian Film for me is just nasty. I wouldn't class it in the same league as Texas Chainsaw or Irreversible.

The original Martyrs was a shocker, the US remake a different kind of shocker.

The interesting thing about texas chainsaw is the violence is pretty much all off screen.
People apparently watched it and said it was gory and violent, because the film works so well on being horrible and unsettling. Even the music is awful and unsettling.

I do love a good "a slow building of dread" horror. The wicker man, Rosemary's baby, the witch.

The ending of the wicker man is one that most seem to know without seeing the film- it's even on the cover of the DVD. Imagine seeing that ending knowing nothing about it before hand. It must have been utterly shocking.

Seconds is a good slow burner and like someone from the USA on IMDB described it something like, came out of the cinema on a hot summers day but I was chilled to the bone.
For me the scariest has to go back to Alien never been beat by anything since for edge of the seat stuff all the way though.

I dont know seconds. Will have to check it out.
The horror Channel does throw up the odd gem from time to time.

Its a very slow burner in the middle.
I not seen for decades but pretty sure Richard Anderson in it very thin on top compared to other roles I seen him in.

I first saw it on C4 back in the 90s, late at night. I still remember the huge release of tension after the final scene, only then realising that my hands had been gripping the arms of the couch up until that point.

Actually that reminds me of another one that's good for tension: Haute Tension / Switchblade Romance. That gave me TCSM vibes too.

The only bad thing about Switchblade romance, is i dont think it really makes sense once you realise who the killer is. Its been years since ive seen it, but i remember at the time thinking that
 
Disney’s Blank Check.
 
Scary I would Say Ju-On, Shutter, Ring all the Asian versions not US remakes Mama is another one.
Disturbing - Irreversible, Hereditary, Midsomar, Hostel, Human centipede.

Hereditary was brilliant up until a point and then it got daft. Irreversible was nasty, but brilliantly disturbing

Grotesque
