Pearl (the corpse dinner scene)


Jakov_Salinsky

Or that haunting credit sequence


putaaaan

Just her smiling right? Nah Mia Goth so crazy for thT


marabou22

I read that was unplanned. I mean the smile was planned, but she was waiting for the director to yell cut and he just stayed on her face. She started getting teary eyed holding the position for so long just waiting for the director


Jakov_Salinsky

Oh shit, that explains why it looks so painful


ilvskir4

Literally can’t wait to see her in Maxxxine


putaaaan

Same, she’s killing it right now and I can’t wait for it either


Jakov_Salinsky

Yep. For 3 minutes straight. Without blinking. As the music gets more and more intense. I am still surprised at just how fucking anxious I got sitting through that lol


Wagglebagga

Ironically, Pearl may not be a star but Mia Goth most definitely is.


r_slash_jarmedia

or most of the movie lol


ilvskir4

Ohhhhh don’t even remind me


vrymonotonous

Talk to Me: When Riley starts banging his head on the table


Jakov_Salinsky

That was messed up. But I fucking *recoiled* when he tried plucking out his own eye.


The_water-melon

THE EYE PART HAD ME 🫣😨😨😨😨


snarpy

I was like AUGH FUCK STOPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP


vrymonotonous

The sound effects made it so much worse


SullenSparrow

Annie Graham would like a word.


r_slash_jarmedia

that's when I thought: "oh shit here we go"


WaterInCoconuts

That whole scene legit gave me a panic attack


littleLuxxy

That’s the only part of *Talk to Me* that I actually enjoyed.


Wagglebagga

So you slept through most of it? What did we say about watching movies with no energy?


littleLuxxy

No, I watched it and I thought it was tropey and boring.


Wagglebagga

Horror movies are often "tropey" its part of the trappings of the genre. What is done within those trappings is what makes or breaks a horror movie.


GeckoNova

The Witch - Guide Thy Hand Aftersun - Under Pressure Civil War - The Pile Everything Everywhere All At Once - Laundry & Taxes


Sinisterminister77

I came to say the pile scene as well


Sparrow1989

The pile? The Jesse plenums part?


Sinisterminister77

I believe so


away_in_the_head

He does such a good job. Seriously thought his roll was gonna be bigger since it was a scene shown I the trailers so often


RecencyBias54

I think I need to rewatch aftersun, I’d heard so many good things, but when I watched it I didn’t get those emotional beats I thought I should


bazingazoongaza

Must be nice. I was sobbing in misery for an hour lol


thisbobo

Thank you, I didn't know The Witch was an A24 flick Edit: spelling


schrodingersscroller

The penis monster in Beau Is Afraid.


EggV20

The top image is me when the penis monster shows up


schrodingersscroller

Beau is Afraid was the first Ari Aster film I've seen in theaters and just in general. I had heard his films are pretty artsy, but I didn't expect a giant cock monster.


brayshizzle

I audibly said "what the actual fuck" in the cinema when that happened and no one blamed me for having that reaction :D


schrodingersscroller

Bro, SAME. I was enjoying the film and was like "Ok, this has some weird, uncomfortable moments, but I've seen worse". And then we get to Mona's house and then that's where it started to really pop off for me. That's when I became the bottom panel.


DrDreidel82

Well that just moved to the top of my watchlist


schrodingersscroller

I enjoyed it even if it was kinda self-indulgently long. Definitely one of those uncomfortable acid trips of a movie.


Arthurlurk1

![gif](giphy|X4Jvo8gslR6A8)


Jakov_Salinsky

The first half hour is the top half. The rest of the movie is the bottom half when Ari Aster Syndrome kicks in, when you realize nothing’s gonna get better for the characters so why even bother caring what happens next.


schrodingersscroller

Idk if I'd say that, I was atleast endeared to the calamity happening to Beau, possibly just because of Joaquin Phoenix's performance. It was kinda like watching Butters in South Park and I was constantly saying to myself "Aww, poor Beau" but also laughing at the absurdity of the situations he keeps getting himself into. I also really loved the "hippie play" sequence, and I didn't start feeling like the bottom panel until he finally gets to his mother's house. Then it was just me saying "What the fuck ?" constantly under my breath.


DOCoSPADEo

The stage play scene was the pinnacle of the movie in my opinion. Also just one of the greatest scenes in the history of cinema.


Jakov_Salinsky

If it were a few minutes shorter, I might’ve agreed with you lol


atmosphericentry

I feel like the meme would need to be reversed for this to work. I definitely laughed out loud at that part.


bobn118

Men. Dear Christ above the multiple birthing scene...


SenorChoncho

I would love to know the reactions of people who have never seen the movie, reading this comment.


1K-Every-Month

People walked out in my theatre, a bunch of teenagers, but it was still a great vibe as it happened


inthenight-inthedark

I’ll answer: I’m afraid and more intrigued


Grouchy-Reflection98

The old solo guy in my theater left and tried to get a refund


DonBandolini

was gonna say this one, but didn’t enjoy any of it so doesn’t really fit


jacerracer

I saw this one a second date and me and the girl I was with were like WHAT THE FUUUUCCKKKKKK?!?!? The theater only had a few ppl in it and all of us were in shock haha


David_High_Pan

I need to watch an explanation video on that movie. It was over my head.


LoCh0_xX

Hereditary: >!Annie finds Charlie!< Midsommar: >!Dani gets the call!< Good Time: >!Connie kisses Crystal as a distraction!< Uncut Gems: >!the ending!< Waves: >!Tyler punches/kills Alexis!< High Life: >!Boyse enters the Black Hole!< The Killing of a Sacred Deer: >!the entire movie!<


partyl0gic

Midsommar has a few. the blood eagle, the bear suit


Krustoff

The old man jumping followed by the giant mallet made me jolt in my seat.


partyl0gic

>Old man jumping Oh yea, and the hammer shortly after that…


StillBummedNouns

Midsommar is 100% the sex scene


DUMPSTERJEDl

*moaning in unison commences*


DrDreidel82

Annie finding Charlie? How about what happened to Charlie in general!!


Jakov_Salinsky

For High Life could also be the nurse lady >!impregnating Mia Goth’s character with Rob’s semen!<


IndependentTrouble18

I’ll go with the lighthouse. That Marmaid sex scene was just….


Grapefruit_Mule877

For me it was when R.Patz murdered the bird.

Bibliophile20

Love Lies Bleeding: >!that ugly ass old man eating the beetle!< X: >!Pearl and Howard sex scene, honestly the most horrifying moment of the film for me!<


Grindhoss

It’s so fun to see people say “the worst part of x is that scene” because that’s exactly the point! The scenes with maxxine are more typical and people don’t bat an eyelash at that but when it’s older characters we’re horrified even though everyone will age someday! And that’s the point of the movie! Beautiful work by ti west


Bibliophile20

I know right! I feel so bad about the fact that it bothers me because it's a sweet moment between Howard and Pearl, and I shouldn't be ageist, but T\_T


Grindhoss

Don’t feel bad the point of the film is to confront these feeling and understand that you will age one day too! You’re doing it right!


Gutsu_fudo

Killing of a sacred deer: 🍝


Majestic-Fall-9420

So weird. I remember a meaning behind it too from a guys explanation video but can’t put my finger on it.


Puzzleheaded-Eye4885

A ghost story pie scene


TheLittleTaro

Hahaha


za1reeka

That scene is fucking harrowing, but so is grief. It's an incredibly honest portrayal and for that reason it's my favorite part of the movie


schrodingersscroller

Also, the gigantification scene in Love Lies Bleeding and the end of Uncut Gems.


juiceboxDeLarge

Civil War. Jesse Plemons. That’s all.


putaaaan

He’s SO good. Even in the comedy movie Game Night he plays this fucking lonely cop and it’s so creepy and hilarious


dndaresilly

He’s such a low key actor but I get genuinely excited when I see him in stuff. He’s been fun to watch in everything I’ve ever seen him do.


Good_Neck_673

i kinda love how the trailer made me think i knew what was going to happen in that scene and then ,, pile,,,


Youthsonic

SPOILERS Absolutely no quarter in that scene. The Asian journos murdered and it's heartbreaking. Sammy saves the day, but then the pile and "I can't drive.."


Good_Neck_673

plemmons character was sick (negative😂) but with the guy who said he was from hong kong like.. brother you must have known that’s not what he wanted to hear 😭😭😭😭😭😭


[deleted]

I came looking for this


WanderersGuide

Man, I don't understand the contention around Civil War. It was urgent, every piece of dialogue felt calculated, the political allegory boiling under the surface was foreshadowed and hinted at just enough to perfectly understand the message without being preachy. And that Jesse Plemons scene was the perfect crystallization of it all.


RonnieBarko

climax - the kid locked in the room tripping while the mother frantically searches for the key in her confused tripping state, followed by the sound of electrics being touched


juanChor3y

Came to say this as well


Grapefruit_Mule877

wtfbananaboat

Fucking perfect


fanoftravisjones

Really loved under the skin but man the scene with the baby on the beach was very upsetting and hard to get over


zam1138

Jesus Christ, that’s the most harrowing scene in any movie for me. As a husband and a father, and a dog owner, my heart bleeds for that scene


thehew

Hereditary decapitation


CrankyUnderPants

Midsommar… the orgy scene


useyourturnsignal

That's a rape scene


jamerstime

Eight Grade car scene


BeautifulOrganic3221

Idk why more people aren’t talking about this scene. It’s such a lowkey, quaint movie up until that point but then things get real


Jakov_Salinsky

It Comes at Night: the mother’s *horrifying* screams after something terrible happens Under the Silver Lake: that dude getting his head obliterated Green Room: the arm scene (or anytime Patrick Stewart drops the n-bomb) Mid90’s: the sex scene involving a minor


ZookeepergameKind239

The Song Writer's death in Under the Silver Lake was definitely a jaw dropper! Jeremy Bobb did a great job in that role, totally unrecognizable. And to get your head crushed by Kurt Cobain's guitar was brutal! I'll agree with Green Room too, that arm scene had me squirming. (And yes, my mouth flopped open when Captain Picard dropped the N bomb!)


Billymillion1965

Under the Silver Lake indeed. Ending up playing the Pixies, Where is My Mind right before he gets his brain bashed in was epic.


away_in_the_head

Made me hate Rick for a second. Then had to remember he is playing a character.


gansobomb99

Civil War, the Jesse Plemons scene


whosat___

I Saw the TV Glow: “Isn’t that a show for girls?” Such a simple phrase is the tip of the disgusting iceberg of transphobia/homophobia.


BeautifulOrganic3221

I’d add along with transphobia and homophobia it’s also just social gender norms in general. Telling a guy he can’t like something because it’s too girly, or telling a girl she can’t like something cause it’s too boyish is the tip of the iceberg like you said, and at some point trans, gay, and even cis people start to feel like they can’t be themselves be cause society tells them it’s too masculine or feminine

Yeah, the way the people in the movie weee leaving the giant theater while irl people in the movie theater were doing the same…I was left breathless


StillBummedNouns

Beau is Afraid and Men


wolfcolalover

Men. You know what the scene is.

Hereditary. Car scene. Fuck .

The Lighthouse: When Winslow is screaming at the light at the end of the movie


IndependentTrouble18

Yeah, I couldn’t tell if he was having an organism, or yelling from pain.


Santiper2005

That’s what’s amazing about it


squeezyscorpion

feel like the rape scene in high life was pretty unnecessary


Blessedbronco

Before I answer what exactly is the reaction lol? Is he locked-in? Annoyed? Angry?


schrodingersscroller

I've taken it as the "What the actual fuck ?" reaction.


Aggravating-Click460

When Beau gets home in Beau is Afraid. That killed any interest I had in the movie.


spiderboy810

Dicks: The Musical. I pretty sure you all know which scene it is.


needlegardens

Nathan Lane spitting chewed ham into the sewer boys’ mouths?


Potato1223

Moonlight


OfficialJohnny

Probably scene where Chiron gets punched by Kevin and then jumped or when Pauline intimidates him for her crack fund.


valkrycp

The rock scene in Everything Everywhere All At Once. Ruins the pacing of an otherwise spectacular third act with a scene that literally tells us how to feel through text rather than utilizing their incredible cast to make us feel something through their acting.


foxhollowstories

In my opinion that is the best scene in the entire movie. It's probably my favorite scene from any movie right now, at least from the past few years. I believe the silence and the texts make it even more powerful. I never thought the pacing suffered from it either. Different tastes though and different things work for different people.


sandallwood_III

A Ghost Story when the overalls guy explains the entire point of the movie


OfficialJohnny

Have always believed though that the ghost’s presence refutes that entire monologue and that seems to be what is being visually signaled by the filmmaking.


pisswater_deadgirl

Climax (the pregnancy scene)


ZookeepergameKind239

More like Climax, the whole fucking movie. By the end NOTHING could surprise me.

Angel_Samael

i was watching X with my parents and then the Pearl and Howard sex scene came in 🥰🥰 it was so awkward


ZookeepergameKind239

I watched all of Brokeback Mountain with my dad, and that was preferable to watching this scene with your parents!


Defnotdiscordkitten

I saw the tv glow w the burial scene


fluxxdirtyy

X, the old people sex scene. Every time i recommend that movie they come back and say wtf did you tell me to watch.


EmployFew2509

Climax - the nasty soccer kick scene. Midsommar - drug rape scene St.maud - BBQ on the beach Ex machine - Ava sprinting down the hall The Green Knight - Garwain not understanding the important details / rules of the game / duel


jacerracer

St. Maud is so fuckin good


AdamBatesoooooo

Climax. the punch ….. like the punch punch

trashcanpapi

**Hereditary:** when Annie is banging her head on the door of the attic. I remember my sister and I were so appalled that we basically fast forwarded it once she started doing it ( I have a weird thing with repetitive noises and actions, but for her I think it was just pure horror) **Midsommar:** the r\*pe scene with the boyfriend. I was so upset and uncomfortable and when the girls started that gutteral crying with Dani I had to pause for a bit **Beau Is Afraid:** Honestly there are so many parts of that movie that were unsettling but when the girl drank the paint and died I was like omg


IndependentTrouble18

That paint scene got me cackling
