You forgot about Frontiers! A French film akin to the likes of Saw and Hostel, only slightly more tasteful, if you can call it that, and a better plot too! But again, more horror movies to add to my list yay!
Hey Daniel, thanks for your comment and welcome to my deluge of gore mwah ha ha! I will seek Frontiers out as obviously that is a deeply disturbing fikm that has passed me by! Shame! Shame!
You’re like the female version of me…never saw a girl into horror as much as you and it’s brilliant!
You won’t be disappointed either. Also it has one of the best end credit songs ever.
Hey Daniel I live breathe and wallow in horror and trash. My DVD collection has come alive and taken over my room. And the best of it is we are both wee Norn Iron people so we have to stick together! Make Ulster famous as a den of iniquity!
Question: When was the last time you slept??? Too many ghouls, so little tomb!
Why Baz I had eight refreshing hours last night
Inside is one of those films I just don’t ever want to see. I’m starting to feel that life just might be too short for relentlessly grim and depressing horrorshows such as Scum and Requiem For A Dream.
Give me trashiness any day; but when a film tries (and generally succeeds) to convince me that life’s awful, I can’t help but feel that I might need a different hobby.
I love depressing films. They make me really happy! If I was to sit down and watch Meet the Fockers I would be suicidally depressed.
I feel that way about music, certainly. I want to get a t-shirt that says “Sad Songs Make Me Happy”. The thing with “depressing” music, though, is that the sadness and suffering is always put through a filter of – well – music. Depressing films, though, frequently force you to watch every second of the misery. I find that hard to take.
Been very interested in seeing Infection ever since I heard about it (can’t remember where) Was half thinking Iron Man might be on this list.
I was half thinking Iron man might be on the list too, but its too popular. I cannot recommend Infection highly enough!
Some good picks here – I’ll definitely have to check out Inside and Infections. Martyrs was a horribly nihilistic experience from start to finish.
I’d highly recommend Jigoku. It’s a little dated now – being 53 years old – but it’s shockingly graphic, and has quite a disturbing depiction of Hell.
Even in the old skool, the Japanese knew how to do horror!
Hell yes, Inside! I remember putting that on randomly one night and getting properly creeped out. Great list, even though I wasn’t a big fan of Infection for some reason. I can almost always tell when a list is yours, simply because you’re pretty much our resident Horror/Grindhouse queen. Always a pleasure to read one of your lists, Ms. Simpson.
Thanks Mike! I aim to please, delight, disgust and appall all at the same time!
May?? I watched it once then i buried it because it was so bad followed by an ace ventura inspired mental breakdown washing my eyes with bleach yet it got out somehow for it to be on this list. May god have mercy on all your souls
Different strokes for different folks!
Let us not forget High Tension. Some people hate the ending. I love it. I’m sure you’ve seen it, but if not, without giving anything away – the end of the movie reveals that what we’ve been shown up until that point is merely one persons perspective.
Watch this space for Haute Tension
I love lists like these, I’ll be scouring the web to find out more about these obscure movies and see if I can view them.
Good luck Travis and happy viewing!
Another great read, Simpson.
Cheers Stewart
Your article was truly vile. Please do not write any more articles.
Love this list, though I think May is lower down (you’re right, different stroke) and would actually replace the top with A Serbian Film. Most disturbing I’ve seen though I can’t wait to catch up on some of yours. Thanks for this!
you’ve implied that you have large breasts. therefore, i shall watch every movie you suggested with the exception of that 72 flick. that just sounds boring
Could Irreversible pass as a horror? Hate (love) that film.
Well, I was hoping I’d find a list that would give me good suggestions and not ruin the plot entirely. This was not it. I would suggest not giving away the ending to your suggested movies in the future.

I counted one hundred "m"s in that text.
