5 Torture Scenes That Will Scar You For Life

I've always had an issue with the term torture porn. I didn't like the idea of the word "porn" being added to the torture aspects of these movies because I felt that it implied some level of sexual gratification was taken from them, and I don't think that is accurate. Yet now, years later, you watch a show on the Food Network and people call it food porn. That is when the term starts to make sense, though. Some of these films really are torture porn, if you think about it.

 The Passion of the Christ – Whipping Scenes

Recommended Videos

You know what my favorite argument in film is? It’s the people who have the fucking balls to try to tell me that The Passion of the Christ is not a torture porn movie, but rather, a biopic or biblical movie. First of all, biopic? Anyone who says that deserves to get crucified. Is it a biblical movie? Sure, sure it is. But at the heart of it is a movie that FOCUSES SOLELY on one man getting fucking beaten and tortured. That, my friends, is the VERY definition of torture porn. Doesn’t matter who is getting tortured. Sorry.

Also, let’s factor in that Mel Gibson (who made this masturbatory bullshit) has since openly admitted to hating Jewish people. Guess who the torturers are in this movie? Do you not think the dude got some glee from showing close up, slow motion scenes of Jesus getting the skin whipped off his fucking back? Hell, he was probably sitting behind the camera laughing during those scenes.

Finally, anyone who wants to tell me that movie is to make a point for how Jesus died and suffered for my sins, don’t bother. These are the same people who would tell me I need to be good all year so Santa brings me the fucking Xbox One I want. Sorry, same ideology. So yeah, I am ending a list about torture porn with the whippings from The Passion of the Christ. Not the clit snip from Antichrist. Not the fucking Achilles scene from I Saw the Devil. None of that. Ending this list on some biblical shit is so perfect, and I can already smell your rage brewing.
