I Made My Own Horror Movie Iceberg

I have seen almost 40 of what I consider to be the most disturbing horror movies of all time, so I made my own iceberg ranking them! what is the most extreme movie you've seen?

Sinister 1000% deserves that title. The fact that it’s still just as disturbing today as it is when I first watched it in theaters when it came out over a decade ago is proof.

[@itskierstenalexandria]

I was a teenager when it came out, saw it in theaters, and it became one of my favorite horror movies almost immediately because of how dark and _sinister_ it was.

[@heyitsella117]

People's boundaries are so funny because that movie did not disturb me that much. Like yeah the "deep web footage" feel of it brought back some weird nostalgia and yeah disturbing but at the same time by the time I was done with it I was literally chill. By the way saying this not to say that I think people getting disturbed is funny or anything, I just think it's interesting how some things are disturbing or not depending on the person.

[@petitemarguerite9530]

My sister and I watched it when we were very young , having no idea was it was about.. i couldn’t get those last scenes out of my head for weeks.

[@WishAtElevenEleven]

This made me realize that a lot of horror movies I’ve enjoyed are not disturbing, or maybe not even horror. The only movie I’ve seen below the iceberg is hereditary, and I was able to handle that one because it only had one really disturbing moment. I found hostel far more disturbing than that because rather than one (truly) shocking moment, it was a whole movie of depraved people. Seeing the original Reddit list and 100 days of sodom being towards the top, there’s no way in hell I’m watching anything on that list!

[@treeshanklondon]

One of the more disturbing movies I’ve recently watched is The Loved Ones, an Australian movie from 2009. One of those that I find a lot of value in and has REALLY great filmmaking with a surprising sense of restraint for WHAT gore they show…but I don’t particularly want to watch it again 😅

[@samanthaw8837]

Yes! I rarely hear anyone mention this one.

[@bookshelfhoney]

Yes that's a great movie and very disturbing in some scenes

[@bri.b6448]

For me, the level of disturbance I feel is often proportional with the acting. Hereditary was one of the best acted horrors i can remember. Toni Colette-i felt that pain. I hear that scream. It's utterly horrifying and shocking.

[@Razieleatssouls]

For me Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer takes the cake on leaving an impact. Something about it just left a dour filter over me for a few days. Some others I'd add to an iceberg are Bone Tomahawk, The Devil's Rejects, I Spit on Your Grave.

[@cheyenneschroeder3824]

I really liked this idea! And I always thought the same about the original Disturbing Movies Iceberg, the bottom couple tiers are just snuff “films”, some of which are up in the air about the existence of them anyway, and that’s not really the same as a disturbing horror movie.

[@darkwriter_xx94]

As someone that’s gotten to level 4 on the original iceberg, by that point they stop being films trying to tell stories. I remember watching those movies as an exercise in “how far can I push myself” and “how much can I take”. I was no longer watching to see a film with a plot. I like your list a lot more. Also, I recall having to torrent most of those films because of how many of them are banned in places so that should’ve told me that I should quit long before I got to Slaughtered Vomit Dolls.

[@Dan-Null]

I really like that you did this. The funny thing about the OG disturbing/horror movie iceberg or other peoples similar ones, is that the farther down you go, the worse the movies get. I don’t mean worse as in violence and disturbing stuff, I just mean the movies get more bad and unwatchable. A lot of them are laughably bad. Also the further down you go the more pornographic they get and I feel like some people are just watching them for that, which is weird, because the internet exists and there are better ways to see that stuff without mixing disturbing violence(unless that’s your thing). It’s also just the quality of film is worse with smaller budget and little to no story. I love an indie film but these just aren’t it. I guess, like you said at the beginning, lets cut out the crap and make an actual “watchable” iceberg. Where the movies are at least decent and not embarrassingly bad.

It's kinda funny that this mirrors the 'classic' iceberg - the more real it is, the deeper down it is. In the case of the classic there's actually literal 'real' stuff, whereas this of course is just mimicking reality. Just an interesting parallel and it makes sense to me.

I’m so glad that Climax made the second to last tier. I watched that film a few years ago, and I’ve never felt such intense anxiety while watching a movie. I had a panic attack shortly after it was over because of the tension that kept building and would not leave. I had a similar experience while watching Beau is Afraid, but that one just left me in a dissociative state for a few days after viewing

[@crazy.panda12]

A disturbing movie I really like ( and might not be so well known) is " In fear", a british movie from 2013. It's not gory, but so, so creepy and it was definitely one that had my eyes glued to the screen in suspense while watching it and also lingered with me for a while after. Not sure if you've seen it, but if not, I definitely recommend it. Love your recommendations as well

Then Ichi The Killer which I didn’t like as much as I thought I would but it would 100% be on this list!!

[@Emma-se5wm]

Great video, Sarah! I was typing a reply to ask where you would put Climax before you got to that part of the video. I found it sooo disturbing and upsetting. I also have enjoyed hallucinogens back in my day but I consented to take them, so that's a big difference. Between the themes of claustrophobia, eroding consent, and some particularly upsetting actions between characters, def not a rewatch for me even if it was well made.

[@itstiaamia]

[@fanvonvielem773]

Thank you for creating an iceberg with actual horror movies. I would never watch anything below tier 3 from the original "horror" iceberg, not in my life. I also like how you pointed out that everyone finds different things disturbing and has different limits. Personally, I can't watch gory/body-horror movies or many movies depicting torture, I don't like them. So Saw or Hostel would be way down there. Strangely enough, though, I'd swap Funny Games and Hereditary. Funny Games just made me emphasize with the family members much more, thus ended up making me feel much more disturbed. The other movie I'd add to the lower tiers would be The Ring and Salo. That one scene in Salo almost made me throw up, not going into detail. And those last ten minutes were unwatchable for me, I literally had to turn away from the screen. However, interestingly enough I could also see the artistic aim and message behind Salo and I did read behind-the-scenes info about how much fun the actors had while filming. So that made Salo very disturbing and a hard watch but... a movie worthy of being called one.

I appreciate this cause like you said the original/most popular Horror Iceberg aren’t really horror movies it’s just real life stuff that can’t be watched unless you have a physical copy or go on the dark web especially the end the last tier on the origin iceberg literally contains all “movies” that can only be watched on the dark web and I seen a video talking about that iceberg and the guy even said he couldn’t even describe or even look up those movies cause even just trying to look up information on them is risky and obviously he wasn’t gonna risk looki them up, some he was able to vaguely talk about from what people have told him but almost all of the “movies” he talked about in the last tier he couldn’t really say much cause of they are literally real life killings basically actual illegal found footage, when I think of a Horror movie iceberg this is what I’m thinking of not what the original one was

[@sunnytheo]

Maybe a bit embarrassing for me but Snowpiercer gave me the worst panic attack and I still haven’t finished the movie nor do I plan to 😅 Cannibalism freaks me out as do bugs and that movie’s got both which I was totally unaware of before watching it lol. Also I love this idea of creating your own iceberg! This was so fun to watch!

[@damattice23]

100% agree about Snowtown. I’ve seen A Lot of movies, and rewatched A Lot of movies, but I will never watch that again. The strangulation torture scene is way to real, cruel, and disturbing. Every time you talk about movies you won’t watch again, this is the only one that comes to mind.

[@thewinterland]

I agree with Climax. I will never watch that movie again. The opening dance sequence is amazing but the reckless child endangerment totally freaked me out!

2 movies not in this iceberg (but would definitely be in mine) are Buried and The Girl Next Door. I don't even know if they're considered proper horror, but both left me literally shaken, for very different reasons

the girl next door is based on a book that is inspired by a true murder case. It's so sad what happened to Sylvia Likens, I don't think I could watch those scenes.

[@Glub2]

I think it's interesting since it seems I'm just way less affected by psychological horror than I am literal body horror. Tusk scarred me forever in a GREAT way while I find Hereditary to be forgettable. Martyrs certainly scarred me for life too, I think about how much it disturbed me in a lasting way more so than Serbian Film or Megan is Missing. Extreme body mutilation while also not killing the person is the most vile stuff that gets to me, it's like the idea of taking away someone's humanity by physically incapacitating them beyond recognition is my biggest nightmare fuel

Oh, but the original Last House is SOOOOOOOOO much more disturbing than the remake! I wonder if it would fall further down the iceberg for you than the remake... Wes's first movie, too. 🤗

First of all, I really like your channel! So Sarah, don't know if you heard about a movie called Soft and Quiet... Very unsettling, and disturbing and... Without a single drop o blood. Can't say much without spoiling something, but oh boy it is another level of disturbing. Would love to hear what you have to say about it (as I always do ☺️) if you do watch it some day! Kudos to you from Brazil ❤️

[@leeshaolivier9298]

That movie is exceptionally disturbing!

[@lip_djordann]

Oh the layers of disturbing this movie can reach is something else... And when you know who's the director and the message she wants to deliver, you appreciate it even more. Even tho the movie is made to upset you! It's all part of the idea. And oh, can I relate to her! Hahah

[@aaronshouting588]

Most disturbing movie for me is Grave of the Fireflies… and it’s not even violent!

[@siracornful]

Love this! We need to put our foot down with these disturbing/extreme movies. Just cause they sometimes overlap doesn't make them horror films!!! I find crime and detective film scary, should they be called horror? They would never!

[@maykruvi]

Yes! So happy to see your iceberg.

[@Odelay77]

I'm so glad I found your channel this year... You've introduced SO MANY great horror movies that I'd never heard of before. And I appreciate how you give kinda vague descriptions with no spoilers, but that are still detailed enough to let me know if it'll be something I'm into. Keep up the good work!

Thank you for making this! 🖤

My brothers and I were very sheltered growing up. We were raised to dismiss R rated movies as trash. Of course, that just made us want to see them. Their popularity with other kids increased that effect. After rarely viewing some movies at friends' houses and later after moving out, I felt a sense of satisfaction for having worked around the old parental restrictions and for making my own decisions for myself. I felt like a grownup. But I also noticed that a lot of so-called horror failed with me because it was low-budget and the effects sucked, or because they couldn't maintain the feeling of dread so they just resorted to lame humor or boob shots instead. (Of course, I like comedy and boobs as much as the next guy, but those are not why I decide to watch a horror movie.) I felt cheated, like they had settled for something less than what they had promised. There was definitely a level of disturbingness missing. And I think just like with us basically being deprived of horror movies as kids, being denied horror filmmakers' best efforts and results made me want them all the more. It made me want to push my boundaries and check out really disturbing stuff. So for a time, I did something about it. I researched disturbing horror movies, tracked some down, and watched. It felt good to see and know that there are people who care enough to follow through and not hold back, and not substitute something else instead. It felt like a meeting of the minds with people I will never actually meet. A meeting of our tastes and values. A validation. But as I continued, it didn't really take that many disturbing movies for me to reach my limit and tap out. I wanted disturbing movies. Yet what I was finding all too often were just disturbing scenes loosely strung together. Plot was a distant after-thought. It was pron of a different color. It left me dissatisfied, and sour on the whole thing. Years later, I worked up the courage to try a few YT summary-reviews of disturbing movies again, just to see what I was missing out on. Maybe somebody could be scary AND tell a well-crafted story? What I found was that the state of the art of disturbing horror films had progressed beyond me. People can make movies about literally anything now. Nothing is off limits. It can all be made these days--if the filmmaker is willing to put up with bans and censors and highly limited distribution. And a lot of those movies failed to click with me. They didn't make me feep like I had had a meeting of the minds. They felt like I was watching the work product of a strange, alien, vile, deranged person. That was not validation. That was a movie maker basically marginalizing me as too vanilla and normal. And that’s...OK. I'm cool with it. I have reached my limit, and I don't need to explore any further or deeper. I don't need the thrill. I don't feel any grand epiphany anymore. It’s just a bunch of weirdos pushing the limits of what they can make and get away with. It's a primeval, visceral rebellion against law and order, rules and structure, just for rebellion's sake. But I don't need any of that anymore. I like structure. I like consistency. I don't need to be scared. I'll take normal. In fact, make it a double.

Your vids got that extra flavor in October

[@johnnyskov79]

One of the ones that impacted me the most was "The girl next door", not because of jump scares or gore, but because of the emotional rollercoaster it takes you on. Such a depressing and disturbing film.

[@anonymoushumanhi]

The fact that it’s based on a true story and was actually toned down and inserted an empathetic character for the movie makes it even more disturbing.

[@haley5803]

I am also terrified of hallucinating and drugs. I don't even drink alcohol because I am so terrified of anything impacting my perception/brain 😅

[@maryellen9503]

I love your take on Human Centipede- I stopped at that one, never touched 2 or 3, but honestly, my word to describe it would be 'sterile'... Most of the movie is shiny chrome and gloves and medical settings and yeah, body horror isn't sterile, but there's a remove to it all...

[@samarnold4723]

I'm quite shocked the ring isn't on your list I know it's your favourite film but I found it quite disturbing x

[@yum_838]

Because it's only disturbing if you are below the age of 11

[@brees3]

I agree with Audition's placement. I know it's considered more mainstream, or at least was in the 2010s but that end scene still haunts me and I also saw the movie once 10 years ago.
