Martyrs/Other Disturting Movies

Has anyone seen Martyrs? What did you guys think of the movie?

Also: General Disturbing movies thread

Best horror of the last 10 years.

My favourite horror for sure, had no idea what to expect going in but really glad I saw it.

I'm a coward, is it as disturbing as many people have said it was?

thought the film made the disturbing parts strangely beautiful

I didn't get disturbed by it and i thought it was just ok, overhyped. Liked the pacing of the film though

it's really a shit movie

Definitely not, the ending shit the bed but the cold open is incredible, and most of the imagery is really great.

is that the movie with the skinned chick? it was meh, but i'm not really into """"""horror"""""" flicks

It has a great first part but then switches to edgy as fuck torture porn with a pathetic excuse for a plot.

Avoid.

In general, horror movies are the least disturbing.
It's the reality of certain depicted situations that are really disturbing.

Some good "disturbing" movies:
>The Vanishing (Spoorloos)
>The Hunt
>Fail-Safe (1964)
>Zodiac
>Inland Empire
>Threads
>The Conversation
>Eraserhead

What makes it a shitty movie?

This. It was absolutely just torture porn, made me think of that Takashi Miike episode of Masters of Horror

no. every time i see people praising it it feels like i've seen a different movie than they have.

good post

I like the first 30 minutes of the movie but the end especially the shockind ending kinda dissapointed me

>somebody sees the afterlife and tell you how it looks like
>it's so terrible I kill myself

This just makes no sense.

Wrong.

Pretentious bullshit. It had an amazing opening, then the end fell flat and jerked off so hard it's dick was vaporized. Anyone who unironically likes it is either a child, or a pretentious idiot.

This movie was fucking garbage. This is one of the main reason i never trust Sup Forums recommendation. Like if you honestly thought this wasn't an less than mediocre piece of shit you're taste is absolute fucking shit. It was like slightly better than one of those giant crocodile vs mega octopus movies that Sci-fi is always shitting out.

The crazy chick who shotgunned everyone was hot

I preferred Haute Tension even if there were a lot of plot holes.

Perhaps I could interest you in some hard terror cinema?

What are some other disturbing movies that are decent?

here

it's because you dont know you dense lad

every time i see people shiting on this movie it's because they didnt get the ending.

so in the end you dont know what she tell to the lady, so the last thing she does can mean both


you just dont want to get it, it's not fucking complicated what the movie is trying to tell you, you should stick to fucking captain america

>so in the end you dont know what she tell to the lady, so the last thing she does can mean both
No, because if the afterlife is so horrifying, then you would want to live as long as humanly possible.

you can't accept that different people like different things eh?

There is nothing to "get", it's not like if you "get" the movie you automatically have to like it.
I for one totally forgot this movie existed because of the standard gore torture porn scenes with no plot or character development in it. The first act was interesting and that's it

I don't even remember how it ends how boring this movie was for me.

or maybe she told here that there is nothing ?

or maybe she indeed saw hell, and then lied to the lady ?

the whole martyrs thing is pretty smart i think, there are no major plotholes and at least the bad guys had a consitent plan in mind, and they were very creepy. then it's not a fucking 10/10 but people calling it garbage just completely missed the point of the movie

No, I understood the ending, it was incredibly forced and hamfisted. It had the subtly of an enema and the insight of a door knob. If I wanted to watch a pretentious movie, I'd watch The Mechanist and enjoy thinking about Kafka. If I wanted to watch torture porn, is watch real snuff. If I wanted to watch a French movie, I'd watch une chien andalou. You're about as entry level pretentious as you can get.

How can you miss the point so bad. The afterlife is so beautiful if you knew about it there would be no point to living and she understood that. Goddamned teenagers pretending to be smart.

>I don't even remember how it ends how boring this movie was for me.

that's because you are stupid, and if the plot is not explained to you clearly scene after scene like in every modern movie your nehendertalian brain just space out


that's the most fedora anyone can get around here, ' it was hamfisted duh ' and you are quoting shit like the mechanist and un chien andalou which are the most vapid pretentious shit ever made, you have no judgement you just spit fallacies and shit you heard


No it's not that, the director himself said that there were no real conclusion, fucking american misinterpreting stuff pretending to be smart

>this guy
user, you need to educate yourself in modernism before you talk about tripe.

Also,
>implying the creator knows what they've created.

>"that's because you are stupid"

Great argument friendo.
And I never said I didn't understand one bit from the plot or anything from the movie, I just find it incredibly standard and boring.

lol so you don't accept any complaints about this movie? You think it's a perfect 10/10?

If the director himself made a thread about it he would say he could've made some things better, but here you are defending it like it's the quintessential masterpiece.
Ofcourse you can like the movie, but to think it's anything more than above average is absurd.

The most uneasy sit I ever had. Great movie, never again.

Any films similar to it that you'd recommend?

>If I wanted to watch a French movie, I'd watch une chien andalou.
yes, a short film made by two spanish auteurs is so french, Buñuel is shit, everything he has made is shit

Brillant movie. When it was over it was cathartic and beautiful.

Don't know if I will watch again though.

It might be in my top 20 but probably just outside.

the girl told the old bitch that there was nothing, there is no afterlife and the old bitch finally felt the guilt of the shit they done was for nothing

My African American Friend!!!!!

No, some of us get it... In my mind, the opening and ending were great. The rest of it was utterly over-rated rubbish, though...
