Acid scene (SPOILERS)


Okay, I know that everyone has been saying this movie was stupid and I subconsequently agree, yet the part where the acid was being poured on the girl and the part where Daniel is getting his tooth pulled out of his mouth almost made me run to the restroom whereas movies like "Saw" and "Hostel" had no such effect on me whatsoever. Did anyone else find those scenes disturbing? Acid really bothers me.

The acid? Eh. The tooth-yanking? Ouch. But if you haven't seen this movie, let me describe the sickest part for you...

Jennifer is tied down and unable to move. The killer reaches into the refrigerator and takes out a plastic Tupperware covered in gore. He opens it, and we see all sorts of human body parts, from a sliced eyeball to fingers and fingernails. He then proceeds to dump the contents into a blender, filling it up to the brim with blood. He grinds it up, and blood sprays all over jennifer. He crams a funnel down her throat and, while she chokes, pours the contents of the blender down her throat, forcing her to swallow it in order to breathe. We hear a disgusting gurgling as the blood and fingers make their way down her throat, and she coughs up a mixture of bile and vomit, but finally is able to finish it all.

Is that not disgusting? That goes on my top 5 goriest scenes of all time, right after Hostel 2 (you know, where the girl got an electric saw through her face, and the guys penis and balls were sliced off with scissors?)
Say what you will about this movie, but many of these scenes fascinated me.
Am i a sick person?

I have to agree with you. The people parts in a blender made me very uneasy. The other parts I was somewhat used to. Burning, cutting stuff off, pulling stuff out, etc. But drinking liquified human? No thanks.

Yes, I found those scenes deeply disturbing. I especially found it disturbing when her face was bandaged up and we think she is scarred for life.
