The Sick Twisted F*ck YouTube DVD Competition 2010

I've been meaning to do a The Top 10 Most Disgusting, Grotesque, Exploitative, Splatter, Gore, Vile Horror Movies list but I wouldn't be able to do it justice. Back in college, Insano Steve and I tried our best to see the most fucked up movies ever made. And we actually saw a lot of flicks that were disturbing as all fuckin hell.

But then I had to enter the real world, got a job and became a pseudo young internet professional and had to put my horror viewing on hold. I kinda waned a bit on finding the extra saucy insane flicks. Then with some spare time, I created the jaded viewer to sorta catch up on what I missed and write up what I had seen. A diary so to speak of what I had seen back in the day.

However, people have decided to see the recent sickest shit and I'll admit I'm jealous. I found this blog called Sick Twisted Fucks and it brought back all the memories of what it was like to see these fucked up films the first time.

These guys are having a competition on YouTube where you share your most sick and twisted flicks in your DVD collection. To put yourself on YouTube and go though a list of what's in your collection is kinda ballsy. I mean to say you own the Vomit Gore trilogy or Squirmfest is telling the public....I like sick shit and I'm proud of it. I mean I own an autographed copy of August Underground Mordum signed by Fred Vogel himself and I think it's the most vile shit in my collection.

In any case, I'm not making up a list but posting these YouTube videos of the members of Sick Twisted Fucks and their entry videos of what's their sickest of the sick. I agree that most of these flicks are sick and twisted. Ironically, I've seen most of these.

The fact you can start breaking it out to subgenres like "vomit gore", necrophilia, scat eating and serial killer is a testament to the fact that these genres were made because their is an actual audience for it. Jeezus Japan, you guys need to watch more 3D Holographic anime characters.

So you can go all voyeur and see if you own any of these films. They are all fuckin hilarious as they describe the atrocities and plots in these movies. I mean it's almost ACME cartooney to say this movie is "about defecating on somebody's face and then eating the shit that was just defecated". But calling somebody the f word because they don't own Philosophy of a Knife. Let's tone it down a notch dude.

OK ready?

Meet the competitors!










***********************************************

These guys and girl all know their stuff. I have to say I'm floored by Ms. Fangirl Sarah. Watching sick and fucked up films I've always thought would fall into a horror super charged alpha male realm and seeing this very hot, Avril Lavigney girl talk about some messed up flicks is crazy awesome.

I'm not sure what you win or who judges this thing. But the lists of DVDs these guys have are unbelievably stellar and very fucked up. It reminds me of a story I heard that a Japanese man was arrested for mutilating people in Tokyo back in 90s or something and when the police searched his apartment, they found many fucked up movies in his collection. They were led to believe that these sicko movies were inspiration for going all homicidal.

I would hate to think what a psychologist would say about my DVD collection.

If you're now looking at your own DVD collection and realizing your most demented DVD is Halloween, well then keep yourself mainstreemy. I mean there are a few hardcore fans out there that take it up a notch. If you decide to cross the line into a fucked up horror universe, you need to see some of the movies they mentioned.

I mean who wouldn't want to see a lady eat a plate of maggots and spaghetti?

5 Foreign Movies that are Shocking as Hell (and that you may not have heard of)

Clearly, my post on the new freakishly bio-torture film, The Human Centipede has got me thinking of other foreign flicks that have been labeled as "most disturbing" or "totally shocking". I had to search long and hard to figure out what I HAD seen and what I could put comprehensively on a list. What I have down below is what I can remember and probably just a few of the movies I've seen that are disturbing as hell.

Sure there are others, but I tried to think of the ones that you may NOT have heard of. So sit back and relax and feel comfort that you probably haven't seen it (applause if you have). Note that all these films are either from 1992 or 1974...weird.

5.) Man Bites Dog

Country: Belgium (1992)

the jaded viewer says: One of the first serial killer movies that was funny, yet highly disturbing. It's a mockumentary as a film crew follows Benoit, a sadistic serial killer.

So why is it shocking?

Well the fact that our protagonist kills without any remorse and the crew though appalled does nothing the murders and even helps in some cases.

Also the ending is by far ironically twisty. Just a good indie flick but with some of the blackest humor you will ever see in a movie.

4.) Dr. Lamb

Country: Hong Kong (1992)

the jaded viewer says: Sure the easy pick from China is to go with an Anthony Wong Ebola Syndrome flick. But for some unknown reason Dr. Lamb sticks in my head.

Simon Yam stars as Lam Gor Yu aka Dr. Lamb, a disturbed loner who drives a taxi at night, looking to rid the streets of what he considers to be human garbage.

This is Category III stuff which has graphic scenes of mutilation, necrophilia and serious amounts of splatter, gore and carnage.

It's one movie that sticks in my head as the pinnacle of HK splatter and shock.

3.) Benny's Video

Country: Austria/Switzerland (1992)

the jaded viewer says: It's a Michael Haneke film that's NOT Funny Games. Haneke's Benny's Video is disturbing as shit in that arthouse sort of way.

The subject matter is pig slaughter, kid on kid violence and some haunting family issues. It's methodical (as Haneke shows in his other movies) and the violence is a look into Haneke's thesis of violence on film.

It has a lot to say and leaves an impact you soon don't forget. Mostly because of Benny and his video.



2.) Vase de Noces aka The Pig Fucking Movie

Country: Belgium (1974)

the jaded viewer says: It's a movie about a guy fucking pigs...but it's done all avante gardy.

So I will leave you with some phrases because there really is no plot in this black and white grainy film.

Pig Fucking
Pigacide
Human/Pig Hybrids
Feces Urine beverage
Suicide


1.) Sweet Movie

Country: Canada/France/West Germany (1974)

the jaded viewer says: Coprophilia people. Yup. This movie has it. That's eating shit for pleasure for the uneducated.

But more than that, Sweet Movie loads up on all sorts of no no's that will ban your film in many countries. Pedophilia, real sex on film, childacide.

Read the insane plot at Wikipedia involving 2 separate narratives, one of a "Miss Canada" and the other of Anna.

For some unknown reason the only thing I remember is the second narrative of Anna luring kids with candy and doing the unspeakable to them.

Hell I have no idea what the themes are in this. All I know is my jaw dropped after watching this flick.

********************************************************************
Well there you have it. I hope this was somewhat educational. If you decide to hunt down these flicks, be warned you have to have some uber warped mind to get through them. They easily will make you sick to the stomach.

Did I miss one? What are your most disturbing or shocking films you've seen (American or foreign)?
