7 Movies That Are Incredibly Hard To Watch

I'll go out on a limb and give a rough estimation that about 97% of movie buffs have come across at least one movie at some point of their lives that they just couldn't watch from start to finish. Everyone has vastly different tastes in films, different things that make them tick, differing thresholds of tolerance for certain things such as boredom, extreme graphic violence and gore, downright stupidity and endless cliches. There are countless reasons why someone would decide to hit the stop button partway through a film.

3) Tokyo Gore Police (2008)

Taking the number three spot is probably the most bloody, gory and ridiculous movie I have ever half-witnessed. I had to fit in one foreign film on this list and if there’s one country who knows how to disturb us in every way possible, it’s Japan.

Tokyo Gore Police is definitely for an acquired taste and not for the faint of heart. It isn’t even for the strong of heart. It takes someone with guts of steel to sit through this one. Director Yoshihiro Nishimura, who worked on special effects for other films in a similar vein, such as Machine Girl and RoboGeisha, brings us his trademark over-the-top, gross out violence.

I barely even remember what this movie is about, all I know is that there is a sword-wielding female police officer and a bunch of people having appendages sliced off and strange alien like creatures growing in their place. There was just so much blood and gore that I couldn’t really tell what the hell was going on. By the time the halfway mark hit, I was completely lost. I’m not a prude when it comes to violence, but in this case, I had to draw the line.

I can’t really say much more about this one. It wasn’t psychologically disturbing, the violence was just so continuous and graphically depicted that I couldn’t watch anymore, and it takes a lot for me to say that.
