I did't find it so effective. Apart from the talking fox it was mostly some brutality which is surely somewhat ed up, but lacks creativity. Compare to Being John Malkovich, which I raked equally, but which is full with bat crazy ideas.
In the end it comes down to the fact that you can't possibly compare crushed testicles with door into Malkovich's head on any thinkable scale. But while Antichrist mostly sucks BJM is, of course, pure briliancy.

Agreed. As I said, there are a lot of movies that can go in there with one :wtf:.
Edit: Let me post this awesome scene from Southland Tales once again:
"Scientists are saying the future is going to be far more futuristic than they originally predicted!" :stongue: :stongue:
People can say whatever they want about The Rock, but in this movie he's brilliant.

an honorable mention in this category is the introduction to the movie 'Mother(Madeo)'. When i first saw the intro, i was thinking to my head that the movie was going to be a mind tripping film.
not really much of a f*cked up, but more of a haunting touch with the scenery and the music.

You're letting your personal opinions influence what you think of as being a "ed up movie". A graphic depiction of Charlotte Gainsbourg taking a block of wood to Willem Dafoe's erect, followed by him ejaculating blood deserves more than :wtf: :wtf: on your scale. I totally disagree with you on the merits of Antichrist, I'm a big fan in fact, but that's neither here nor there. What's more important here is how "ed up" of a movie it was. The prologue was so totally ethereal and what followed was undoubtedly a "very ed up movie". When that fox intoned "chaos reigns" he meant it for the rest of the film.
Being John Malkovich was a Mind Screw, and a very well done one at that. But ed up? I suppose the ending was...
Antichrist was more visceral, more terrifying, and ultimately more ed up.

im still going to say Cannibal Holocaust is the most ed up probably of all the ones mentioned here.
Cannibal Holocaust achieved notability because its graphic violence aroused controversy. After its premiere in Italy, it was seized by a local magistrate, and Deodato was arrested on obscenity charges. He was charged with making a snuff film, due to rumors that some actors were killed on camera. Although Deodato was later cleared, the film was banned in Italy, the UK, Australia, and several other countries due to its graphic depiction of violence, sexual violence, and the slaughter of six animals. Some nations have since revoked the ban, but the film is still barred in several countries. The critic David Carter suggests the film is a commentary about civilized society.[2][3]
Check it out, and compare it to the others mentioned here. Maybe I'm wrong but i think the killing of a large turtle over 10 minues is pretty sick, even though the actors stated it was eaten...not to mention what happens to the crew is sick.
