Irreversible
Directed by Gaspar Noé
A woman’s lover and her ex-boyfriend take justice into their own hands after she becomes the victim of a rapist. Because some acts can’t be undone. Because man is an animal. Because the desire for vengeance is a natural impulse. Because most crimes remain unpunished. From TMDB

I'm sure there are others, but these spring to mind: A Serbian Film Salo The Human Centipede Irreversible I've gathered that Salo and Irreversible are both worth seeing, while the other two are skippable.
neutral · AI labelView post →I remember being obsessed with the credits of Enter the Void in high school and when I saw the film itself I thought it was going to be the biggest film of all time except it wasn't and everyone hated it. Climax ended up his normie friendly movie and Irreversible still terrifies people.

neutral · AI labelView post →when i was taking film classes in college we had to give a critical reading of a scene from a movie - and my partners forced me to do a scene from Irreversible, so i picked this opening from I Am Cuba www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOLV...
neutral · AI labelView post →Irreversible. It’s a great movie but it’s too much to go through it again. That’s probably the only one. Climax triggered a mild panic attack when I saw it opening weekend in theaters and I still went back and saw it again the next weekend. So, I’m not adverse to “having a bad time at the movies”.
neutral · AI labelView post →Fiction often makes intentionally uncomfortable scenes to prove a point and nail into the viewer how fucked up it is. This is why the film Irreversible was critically acclaimed, as brutal as the rape scene is, the intention is to horrify and disgust the viewer and imprint how ugly it is.
positive · AI labelView post →Gal who has only seen Gaspar Noé's Irreversible , watching Avengers: Doomsday: Getting a lot of 'Irreversible' vibes from this...
neutral · AI labelView post →Gaspar Noe has created some of my favorite sequences in film history (the Climax dance, the opening credits to Enter The Void, the final moments of Irreversible) and I cannot recommend watching any of his movies in full
neutral · AI labelView post →Irreversible is not a movie about sex, it’s about rape
neutral · AI labelView post →#OctoberMovieChallenge #Moviesky 10/14 somebody hit in the face with something other than a fist Irreversible (2002) Director: Gaspar Noe I will never watch this movie again. The one time I saw it has seared a trauma hole into my mind. There is a fire extinguisher scene you don't need to see
negative · AI labelView post →Most disturbing film watched: Kidnapped (2010). Brutal and bleak watch. Some impressive technical feats like the long unbroken takes and a head smash that almost rivals Irreversible. But man, you just feel bad after watching.

neutral · AI labelView post →Like look man, Irreversible is not a profoundly deep film -- the first frames are literally the thesis stated clearly. If you go "what the point?" after that, I don't know what to tell you aside from watch out for low flying traffic helicopters. :p

neutral · AI labelView post →not a suggestion to watch the film but the most sincerely awful horror movie ever made is Gaspar Noe’s Irreversible. Even down to the music the film has a soundtrack in frequencies known to provoke anxiety and negative feelings in people it is an awful experience but it’s effectively anti-rape
negative · AI labelView post →I've watched some of the scariest movies: Hereditary, Irreversible, A Serbian Film, Cuando Acecha La Maldad, A League of Their Own... But I just got back from watching Obsession and I just can't seem to shake the terror. What a great film.
positive · AI labelView post →Sentimental Value Joachim Trier 2025 Norway Just gorgeous. Top tier performances all around. Also, a man giving a 9 year old Irreversible and The Piano Teacher as birthday gifts is fucking hysterical.
neutral · AI labelView post →GRAVE OF THE FIREFLIES and REQUIEM FOR A DREAM were both so profoundly-upsetting for very different reasons that I’ve just decided to never watch them again. Oh, and IRREVERSIBLE (the French film). No fucking thanks.

neutral · AI labelView post →Thanks to TBS and an indoor childhood I’ve seen The Legend of Billie Jean, dozens of times but still going to try to catch it tonight. It’ll be a second viewing of Irreversible. A darker but well crafted film. #FrightClub
positive · AI labelView post →Age yourself with a movie you saw in the theatre as a kid PERMANENT IRREVERSIBLE TRAUMA!!!!!!!!
neutral · AI labelView post →About 15 years ago, before I had a smart phone, I opened up my laptop on the subway and, in full view of like a half- dozen people, started watching the movie Irreversible. I had not seen the film before, and did not know it opened like that.

Children of Men 6. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind 7. Mulholland Drive 8. Melancholia 9. Roma 10. The Lives of Others
neutral · AI labelView post →Anyway Irreversible has the hardest-to-watch scene of any movie I've ever seen, but as far as the whole corpus of work goes nothing can top A Serbian Film (which just keeps gets worse and worse until literally the very last shot of the movie).
neutral · AI labelView post →I passed on all that and killing animals is a pretty fucking cheap way to get a shock. Worse than eating shit in Salo, that scene in Irreversible, or several scenes in A Serbain Film? Probably. Fucking cheap. #CultShelf

neutral · AI labelView post →4) despite being my most despised film of all time, Irreversible has a killer opening credits sequence lol
neutral · AI labelView post →I Am Cuba - maybe not the best as propaganda, it makes the hated Americans here look like they're having too much fun. but an all time great movie. also i'll give it to Irreversible that it's at least technically interesting to me even tho i hated watching it.
neutral · AI labelView post →Introduce yourself using only one food you refuse to eat, one movie you'll never watch again, and one song you can't stand - Eggs (the smell, taste and texture make me heave) - “Irreversible” (if you’ve seen it, you’ll know why) - “Muskrat Love” (nails on a chalkboard)
neutral · AI labelView post →Oh, ok — yeah, I don’t gravitate towards those films that are solely blood and guts — the Eli Roth stuff like Hostel, or the New French Extreme flicks like Martyrs, Inside, Irreversible. A Serbian Film. That’s just not my kinda horror.
neutral · AI labelView post →There probably should be a category for movie that you should only seen once. I would include Irreversible in this category for example. 7/x

neutral · AI labelView post →Those four I’ve not seen and probably won’t. Irreversible and A Serbian Film definitely not. Salo, I just kinda don’t care, same with HC (which seems gross but too silly to be upsetting). I dipped out of Terrifer 20 min in, because there was no film there, just loosely connected scenes. Martyrs.

neutral · AI labelView post →Not seen A Serbian film. Salo is excellent, Irreversible is a very good film ruined by two scenes, and The Human Centipede is just dross from start to finish.
neutral · AI labelView post →This might be the absolute best revenge film I’ve ever seen. It’s rough, but the violence pales in comparison to something like Irreversible. If you watch this, it will feel familiar, because it seems (at least to me) that other filmmakers have been stealing from it for decades. 4.5/5
