Horror Movies That Were Almost Too Disturbing To Finish
By NATALIA KEOGAN
Cannibal Holocaust
Arguably the first found footage film, Ruggero Deodato's 1980 "Cannibal Holocaust" pushed the genre to the limits in terms of torture and gore.
The movie's hyper-realistic documentary approach and intensely crafted gore sequences led many to believe that "Cannibal Holocaust" was actually a snuff film.
Poughkeepsie Tapes
"The Poughkeepsie Tapes" is another found-footage horror film. It chronicles the horrific exploits of a serial killer through a collection of 800 tapes.
While the film wasn't explicitly banned, MGM delayed its release for seven years after it premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival in 2007.
A Serbian Film
The directorial debut of Srđan Spasojević, "A Serbian Film" heavily depicts scenes of pedophilia, necrophilia, and incest throughout the storyline.
The horrendous scenes of "A Serbian Film" aren't for the faint of heart. Its violent depravity can be too much for even the most die-hard horror fan to endure.
