Not the most uplifting of topics, but what
what films chill you? I'd have to go with Day After Tomorrow and films that show destruction of the earth and Peril, I don't know why it just Creeps me out (says the girl that loves Hannibal Lecture trilogy lol)
The Day After Tomorrow disturbing? It's a big Hollywood-movie for god's sake.
Now, The Passion of Christ - that was disturbing. Requiem for a Dream - that was disturbing.
Has anyone seen The Wicker Man? Disturbing cinema at it's best.
I'll tell you whats not scary, Jaws. The music is great but the film and the shark are shocking (in a laughable way).

I cant believe you watched the Justin to Kelly movie! Tsk Tsk Tsk...
A disturbing movie is 8mm (millimeter)
The most disturbing movie I have ever seen was the Ben Stiller/Owen Wilson version of "Starsky & Hutch", but the reason might not be what you're looking for.
As far as truly heavy films go, probably either The Green Mile or American Beauty.
"American History X: amazing performance from Edward Norton."
That movie is very disturbing but very amazing! I watched it this summer. :O Wow, truly an example of how awful racism can be.
I agree on American History X. Wicker Man is also one of my old favorites.
Two others are Blue Velvet from David Lynch and
Dead Ringers from David Cronenberg.

Death to Smoochy was also pretty disturbing.
It was pretty hilarious also! *starts singing "Friends come in all sizes, that's a fact- it's true!"*
American History X is my second favorite movie of all time after 'The Shawshank Redemption'.
Other disturbing, but yet EXCELLENT movies are...
- Platoon
- City Of God
- The Exorcist
- Boys Don't Cry
- Goodfellas
- Silence Of The Lambs
- The Passion Of The Christ
I still don't get why so many people think that "A Clockwork Orange" is so good. I thought it was a good film, but certainly not among the top films of all time.
Yet again all the movies I mentioned before are as disturbing as 'Sesame Street', compared to 'FACES OF DEATH'.
'Faces Of Death' is not even a movie, it's a documentary that shows actual footage of people getting killed or seriously injured. I must admit that I downloaded 3 clips out of curiosity and I could barely stand watching anymore. I can't imagine how could someone sit through more than 1 hour watching something so incredibly disturbing.
One Hour Photo really was a bit of a creepy film. Just the whole concept could almost prevent me from getting my photos developed. Boys Don't Cry, is a terribly sad flim, but yet very good. I enjoyed it.
