Don't think that Irreversible didn't haunt me. Oh man....that movie.
Another one that made me cringe was Gaspar Noe's I Stand Alone.
When he beats the shit out of his pregnant wife...and a few other ghastly bits.

This still gets me to this day.
Oh yes... that girl's only purpose in this movie is to either get Jeff Goldblum in shit and that HORRIBLE scene.
Here's mine:
Goddamn you americans and your patriotism
It's so f***in Cheesy.
Patriotism done right and badass.
Will do.

Yeah, that's an awful scene. In fact, the movie had many scenes that were difficult to watch.
I'm not sure if many people know this but the pilot that they tried to rescue, Mike Durant, wrote a book a few years after Black Hawk Down came out about the crash and his capture by the Somalis. In the movie they depict him getting hit in the face by a rifle after Gordon and Shughart were killed, which wasn't actually true. In Durant's book he said that the Somalis had started mutilating the bodies of his crew and that they almost beat him to death with his co-pilot's arm before dragging the bodies naked through the streets. Terrible.

Anything in the prequels that had to do with Padme and Anakin.
You are an ass for reminding me of that. Why did I open this thread.

I really should see that one, but for some reason I haven't had a hurry to do so.

Un chien Andalou, probably the reason why this film is still famous.
edit: If there is a good reason to become a Film professor, then it is to show this scene to a auditorium full of freshmen.

I love Chasing Amy and I think Joey Lauren Adams is cute, but that fucking song is atrocious.

lol that was well acted but it was sooo obviously fake.... it was a fake body with his head through the floor...
The Swingers phone call scene is probably the top of my list. That whole movie has a lot of uncomfortable truth to it, but that one scene is the nightmare scenario.
In terms of "cringe at how awful it is," most of The Happening, but in particular the scene in which Wahlberg tries to placate the crazy old lady near the end. "MA'AM! NOO! MA'AM!"
His leaden writing made a lot of competent fiction authors turn in their graves first, so I say turnabout is fair play.

best part of the movie was the first 30 mintues... the knife scene just wasn't done good. I never like that actor or character either. but its just sooo fake looking

There's this one scene in one of the SAW movies (At least, I think it was SAW) where this chick lands into a pit of syringes. I had to look away.
And another in one of the Jackass movies where they give each other paper cuts with those manila envelopes. Cringe every time I think about it...

yeah I always liked Franco but this movie was amazing.... James is the fucking man.. one of my favorite actors. I was crying something fierce when sigur ros came on... it was a happy cry though. That movie will really show you some perspective... if you're having a shitty day, depressed... watch that shit. You will not complain anymore.

The "he fought the good fight" scene in Shawshank Redemption. Not because of the subject matter, but because of the terrible narration and music that literally made me cringe from how melodramatic and cheesy they made it.

I could just tell the way the done it instantly..... I watched the making of a few years after and was right 100% I usually never look for immersion braking things in movies you know mistakes and what not it totally takes away from the point of watching a movie. o well At the time it was just the best way to do the shot though. Now they would make the knife CG lol

Which scene? I've seen Splice but it was so forgettable I have no idea what you're referring to.
I always attributed that to the fact that he was crazy.

Forgot about that. Yeah, I think I covered my eyes the the theater for a few seconds of it. Horrifyingly painful to watch.
And that scene from Drive also. That was totally out of left field in it's level of ferocity.
It's definitely a very inspiring film.

American History X was full of cringe inducing stuff; I can think of at least 3 scenes that were super difficult to watch. This one was probably the hardest to stomach though...

He's condemned to continue living in hell.
Nothing's changed, his glance in his rearview mirror when we last see him confirms this.
He will continue to exist and for as long as he does so he will continue to suffer.
I'm not sure if this is 'Hollywood' as it's not as if he gets the girl and they live happily ever after or anything.....
