Single most disturbing scene from a movie that wasn’t rated R

[–] numlok@lemmy.world 15 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Seriously.
I've seen more than my share of extremely graphic movies, but for some reason, this one scene is forever etched in my brain near the top... and I've only ever seen it once (in theater). Something so horrifying about the way it moves, its glistening translucent flesh, and the casual nature of the violence.
Bleh!

JFC I thought you were joking

What was this from? It just makes me think of the brain bugs from Starship Troopers, but I know it’s not since they use a crazy straw.

[–] Catsrules@lemmy.ml 12 points 2 years ago

It was one of the King Kong movies. Bugs are huge and eat people. I just saw it once I don't remember anything else about the movie but the bug parts are burned in my mind.

[–] KittyCat@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Honestly that scene is more disturbing than a lot of traps from even the saw movies

[–] Catsrules@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Totally agree, Everytime I see a snail I get flash back of this movie.

You better figure it out before the bed bugs bite.

[–] craftyindividual@lemm.ee 7 points 2 years ago

Always keep a gun next to your bed, that way you can reach to answer a phonecall and accidentally shoot your neighbours through the wall.

My mom slept loose and here I am

[–] Llewellyn@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

Bed bug bit her?

[–] archiotterpup@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It means you didn't tighten your bed ropes, duh.

[–] qisope@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

ropes won't cut it, you're gonna need 4" ratchet straps

What the fuck does sleeping tight mean?

[–] Shiggles@sh.itjust.works 15 points 2 years ago (2 children)

The apocryphal story is that beds used to be supported/made of many ropes that would regularly need to be tightened to maintain form. So it was a reminder to snug up on these ropes.

Indian charpai beds are made with braided cords over a mahogany frame. Surely not related, just a fun fact.

[–] MxM111@kbin.social 7 points 2 years ago

Opposite of loose. Duh.

[–] fadingembers@lemmy.blahaj.zone 14 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Anyone that says this has not experienced the very real horrors of actual bed bugs

[–] Severed_Fate@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago
