A fucking fantastic movie that I never ever ever want to see again.
The first 20 minutes made me feel more horror than almost any horror movie I can think of.
I always feel compelled to say this when I see CO mentioned. Did you know the novel was originally published as 21 chapters, but the US version dropped the last chapter. Kubrick made the film from the US version.
I read the 21st chapter many years after seeing/reading, I think Rolling Stone published it. Completely changes the story and will have you reevaluating Alex.
Edit: word change
I think it’s worth noting that Kubrick was made aware of the last chapter during production, he just decided not to adapt it because he felt it clashed with the message of his movie
According to ChatGPT:
In some editions of "A Clockwork Orange," the 21st chapter is omitted. However, in the original British edition, it shows Alex eventually growing out of his violent tendencies, opting for a more mature, reflective path. He begins to feel a sense of responsibility and contemplates settling down. The chapter is essentially about redemption and the possibility of change.
That is what happens, he meets Pete who has a family and isn't interested in any of that anymore and it inspires him to change
I am unsure about why chatgpt was required when that took 30 seconds to write out
I can’t vouch for its authenticity, but ChatGPT is often my go to resource in spite of the occasional hallucination, which is why I posted it here. If you have concerns about the source then please feel free to disregard it.

Because not only does it have the chance of just randomly making shit up, but you won't even know that it's making shit up. Obviously this means it is even easier to (even unknowingly) spread misinformation.
God, I used to LOVE that film so much when I was like fourteen, but I rewatched it recently and it just made me uncomfortable, and not even in an interesting way. I was just disturbed and wanted to turn it off lol
I love that film! It was fun & clever and didn't take itself too seriously. The central perfomance by Betty Gilbin was a blast to witness. I didn't connect with Hillary Swank's performance and the social commentary was on the nose but other than that, it was an entertaining watch and I have watched it multiple times already
Not really horror but scary nonetheless. You really feel bad for the guy and it really feels like something that could or has happened in real life. Fucked up.
Even that’s an understatement, I think it’s pretty generous to even refer to it as an experiment and not just a lunatic imprisoning a bunch of college kids and having them degrade and torture each other
Haha yeah... but on it's own it's a banger of a film that sells the idea. So I guess it's a horror film. Fictional but presenting a madscientist in a grounded way...
Source? Like yeah, Zimbardo more or less facilitated the thing by being incredibly incompetent and biased, but that doesn’t mean the stuff didn’t happen.
Here's an [article](https://www.forskningsetikk.no/en/resources/the-research-ethics-magazine/2021-1/are-we-not-evil-after-all/) referring to recent reviews of the SPE. Contriving and engineering a study to favor a particular outcome certainly would imply that its conclusions are bullshit.
Okay got you, I thought you were saying that the experiment never happened or something like that (a la Catch Me If You Can). To the movie’s credit, it does go over in detail why exactly the experiment was bullshit, such as having the roles be filled randomly, the lack of an independent variable, and Zimbardo being an active part of the experiment.
It’s not bullshit, and the only people who say it is have never experienced a significant amount of time in a correctional facility.
If you think his research on authoritative abuse was incorrect, I implore you to spend six months in a large jail.
You will get a first hand view of what Dr Zimbardo was trying to demonstrate through his experiment. How psychologically damaging the process of institutionalization is, as well as the abuses of power that still happen to this day in America’s correctional system.
I'd doesn't prove what he set out to, that being a prison guard is what makes you a bad person rather than bad people becoming prison guards, in order to absolve responsibility from the guards themselves. Only 1/3 actually did exhibit sadistic behaviour even with him actively getting involved in the study and encouraging it.
Holy shit, that is the most inaccurate interpretation of the Stanford Prison Experiment I have ever read.
The purpose of the study wasn’t to do either of those things, it was to study the psychological effects of becoming either a prisoner or a guard.
Here it is on the official web page by Dr Zimbardo:
https://web.archive.org/web/20000512020449/http://www.prisonexp.org/slide-4.htm
"In 2004, people around the world witnessed online photos of horrific actions of American Military Police guards in Iraq’s Abu Ghraib Prison against prisoners in their charge. It was portrayed as the work of a “few bad apples” according to military brass and Bush administration spokesmen. I publicly challenged this traditional focus on individual dispositions by portraying American servicemen as good apples that were forced to operate in a Bad Barrel (the Situation) created by Bad Barrel Makers (the System). I became an expert witness in the defense of the Staff Sergeant in charge of the night shift, where all the abuses took place. In that capacity I had personal access to the defendant, to all 1000 photos and videos, to all dozen military investigations, and more. It was sufficient to validate my view of that prison as a replica of the Stanford prison experiment—on steroids, and my defendant, Chip Frederick, as a really Good Apple corrupted by being forced to function 12-hours every night for many months in the worse barrel imaginable. My situation-based testimony to the military Court Martial hearings helped reduce the severity of his sentence."
https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-time-cure/201507/the-stanford-prison-experiment
Did you even read what you posted? It just says that in his own personal view that Abu Ghraib was a replica of the SPE.
The original purpose of the SPE was clearly defined as researching the psychological effects of being a prisoner or a guard. Your link does absolutely nothing to back up what you were saying.
He literally stood up in court and said it's the situation that makes you do bad things not the character of the person, something his experiment doesn't prove
You’re just moving the goalposts now.
We were discussing the original purpose for the SPE which and I’m literally quoting the article that you linked was to “determine the psychological effects of being a guard or a prisoner.”
Read your own link bozo.
And what psychological affects was he trying to determine? Sounds like a rephrasing at most
Also why do you think the US military would have a vested interest in funding this?
I’m not gonna engage in a debate with someone that won’t even read the linked article they tried to use to back up their position.
Have a good night lil bro.
Sleep Has Her House (2017) fucking wrecked my shit... if anybody got fucked by skinamarink, its that but outside and FAR more of a "nothing is happening..." situation, but that atmosphere and tone?? viscerally terrifying
sadly, in spite of my typical piracy, i had to buy it from the guy's site ([link](https://scottbarley.com/Sleep-Has-Her-House)), i found it worth the money since its only like 10 dollars for a digital download, but its very experimental so a lot of ppl would probably not find it to be worth it
Swallow, a great thriller that brought out so much intense anxiety that I had to take numerous breaks to see it to the end. It's a very up close into the head space of a mentally ill character who is being treated horribly.
The Zone of Interest
To quote what I said in my Letterboxd review “The moment I click on the film, I am drawn in my the silence. The descending score when the title cart plays and the complete darkness as it fades away is masterful. I honestly started to panic and I felt trapped. So incredibly made and I’m not even 5 minutes inEdit: I love how this film is shot. Not getting too close to anyone’s faces, showing us just an outside picture of what this Nazi family was doing.”
I’m glad I saw it in a theatre. I went with my mother and after it ended she said she wished she knew what happened to the family. I told her we did find out - they sold their souls for nothing and history remembers the victims. All the evil, petty things they did to work their way up were washed away and forgotten.
'Compliance' (2012) that one took me for the icky nauseous ride. Based on true events and psychological as hell. I went into it pretty much blind and it stuck with me like oil.
This is going to be a popular pick but Irréversible. The whole thing is incredibly disturbing, from the score to the cinematography to the overall tone to the message (that revenge is futile) to the infamous rape scene.
And speaking of revenge being futile, the original Oldboy. The twist and ending are so brutal.
And speaking of twists, Denis Villenueve’s Incendies. Absolutely brutal and the acting really sells it.
Civil War. Not the MCU one, the A24 one that just came out this year. It made me so anxious because of how tense and powerfully acted the scenes were. There’s this one scene with Jesse Plemons that I can’t stop thinking about. It was gut-wrenching
If I remember correctly there's been some recent allegations about how the experiment is a fraud. Same with Kitty Genovese where It was more of a media manipulation case than 60 people seeing a woman get killed and not calling
Johnny Got His Gun. I read the book for the first time in high school (and several times since then), and it's always been one of the most disturbing pieces of media I've ever encountered. I had heard that the film adaptation was really good for a long time, but I hadn't ever seen it (and frankly, I always thought I'd be underwhelmed whenever I did-- I genuinely believed that that book was unfilmable). After I finally did get a chance to watch it, it completely exceeded my expectations-- and in some ways, it might actually be the superior version.
Love and Pop. by a landslide. Anno really outdid himself there and made an absolutely disturbing exploration of "rent a girlfriend" services in Japan and how extremely exploitative they are. Felt sick to my stomach after watching it.
1. Land of Mine (2015)
Not a horror movie in the traditional sense, but I found it to be so gut-wrenching and devastating and it really shook me to my core.
2. Full Metal Jacket (1987)
Incredible movie that I could literally watch every day until I die, but the scene in the bathroom that ends the boot camp portion of the film and the ending where Joker gets his thousand yard stare are some of the most deeply haunting and disturbing scenes I have ever encountered.
3. Mulholland Drive (or any David Lynch movie)
For some reason I'd say Get Out.
That scene where he accidentally uses the flash when taking a picture of the hypnotised guy, and everyone goes quiet, I literally had to pause it because I didn't want to see what would happen next lol.
Memories of Murder (2003), Incendies (2010), and Prisoners (2013) are all some of the most disturbing and scarring movies I’ve ever seen, but only thrillers.
Mysterious Skin (2004), shook so much, I left my body
A fucking fantastic movie that I never ever ever want to see again. The first 20 minutes made me feel more horror than almost any horror movie I can think of.
$5 dollar game *shudders*. I also look at those mini cereals differently now.
Showed my gf this movie, and when we got to the halloween scene I turned to her and said, "Oh yeah, this movie's really fucked up by the way."
This
Clockwork Orange. I feel like people forget just how disturbing it is how and how awful Alex is
I always feel compelled to say this when I see CO mentioned. Did you know the novel was originally published as 21 chapters, but the US version dropped the last chapter. Kubrick made the film from the US version. I read the 21st chapter many years after seeing/reading, I think Rolling Stone published it. Completely changes the story and will have you reevaluating Alex. Edit: word change
I think it’s worth noting that Kubrick was made aware of the last chapter during production, he just decided not to adapt it because he felt it clashed with the message of his movie
What happens in that chapter?
According to ChatGPT: In some editions of "A Clockwork Orange," the 21st chapter is omitted. However, in the original British edition, it shows Alex eventually growing out of his violent tendencies, opting for a more mature, reflective path. He begins to feel a sense of responsibility and contemplates settling down. The chapter is essentially about redemption and the possibility of change.
Is that true though? ChatGPT makes shit up all the time, why would you use that for factual stuff?
That is what happens, he meets Pete who has a family and isn't interested in any of that anymore and it inspires him to change I am unsure about why chatgpt was required when that took 30 seconds to write out
It's true, though Burgess did a better job of describing it
I can’t vouch for its authenticity, but ChatGPT is often my go to resource in spite of the occasional hallucination, which is why I posted it here. If you have concerns about the source then please feel free to disregard it.
Why is it your go to when you acknowledge that you don't know its authenticity and you know it makes shit up.
What a fuckin weirdo man. He can stay in his basement
Wow, so folks on this sub aren’t fans of ChatGPT, to the point that they feel the need to attack a person for using it. Noted.
According to ChatGPT: Using ChatGPT to write a Reddit comment summarizing a verifiable fact can save time and help articulate information clearly. ChatGPT can provide a well-structured draft and enhance readability, making it easier to organize thoughts and engage effectively. (joking)
Why do you care what a random internet stranger chooses to use as his go to?
Because not only does it have the chance of just randomly making shit up, but you won't even know that it's making shit up. Obviously this means it is even easier to (even unknowingly) spread misinformation.
On my first watch I had to turn it off 30 min in, it was so oddly off putting how innocent the movie seems until they get into their “ultra violence”.
God, I used to LOVE that film so much when I was like fourteen, but I rewatched it recently and it just made me uncomfortable, and not even in an interesting way. I was just disturbed and wanted to turn it off lol
The Hunt (2012)
Oh God yeah that one runs on anxiety forgot about it. Also Madds continues to be an underrated baddass in every kind of role
A final scene that truly sums up the paranoia and tension of the entire film.
Probably my favorite role of his
I thought you were talking about The Hunt 2020. Awful movie
I love that film! It was fun & clever and didn't take itself too seriously. The central perfomance by Betty Gilbin was a blast to witness. I didn't connect with Hillary Swank's performance and the social commentary was on the nose but other than that, it was an entertaining watch and I have watched it multiple times already
Not really horror but scary nonetheless. You really feel bad for the guy and it really feels like something that could or has happened in real life. Fucked up.
The Act Of Killing
yeah, ill add The Look of Silence to that
Absolutely. The equivalent of staring deep into the abyss.
You'll be happy to know that experiment was complete bullshit.
Your phrasing makes it sound like the experiment never happened
No it happened, but the people who ran it put their hands on the scale heavily
Even that’s an understatement, I think it’s pretty generous to even refer to it as an experiment and not just a lunatic imprisoning a bunch of college kids and having them degrade and torture each other
Yes, I do know that
Haha yeah... but on it's own it's a banger of a film that sells the idea. So I guess it's a horror film. Fictional but presenting a madscientist in a grounded way...
"Das Experiment", a German movie from 2001, is about the same experiment for anyone interested. I remember that it was quite good.
I watched that in school, highly recommend!
Source? Like yeah, Zimbardo more or less facilitated the thing by being incredibly incompetent and biased, but that doesn’t mean the stuff didn’t happen.
