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

[–] RedditRefugee69@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So… you gonna drop the movie name or what?

JFC I thought you were joking

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!

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 1 year 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.

[–] Catsrules@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

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

[–] KittyCat@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

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

What the fuck does sleeping loose mean lol.

You better figure it out before the bed bugs bite.

[–] craftyindividual@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year 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 1 year ago

Bed bug bit her?

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

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

[–] qisope@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

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

What the fuck does sleeping tight mean?

[–] Shiggles@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 year 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.

[–] BruceLee@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

J'ai toujours cru que ça voulait dire de dormir bien bordé.

[–] MxM111@kbin.social 7 points 1 year ago

Opposite of loose. Duh.

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

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

[–] Severed_Fate@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago
