Whether it is a gruesome injury, horrific conversations or just plain uncomfortable to watch, they are not something we just forget about. This list will go through 10 of the most difficult to watch movie scenes in existence. Be warned, these scenes are extremely graphic and unsettling and should be watched with caution.
10. Full Metal Jacket – Soap Beating
In Full Metal Jacket, a Stanley Kubrick piece on the Vietnam War, a hardened platoon of soldiers is focused on. This platoon, however, has one weak link in Private Pyle. Pyle is an overweight and out of shape soldier who drags the rest of his team down, so it is up to them to help him improve. In what can be seen as an act of hazing, the group ties him to his bunk and one by one whips and beats him with bars of soap wrapped in towels. The cries and shrieks from Pyle are without a doubt what makes this scene so hard to handle.
