"It Shook Me To My Core" – People Are Sharing The Movie Scenes They Literally Cannot Watch Again, And I Agree With A Lot Of These

From "Harry Potter" to "Hereditary", and much more in between.

We all have those movie scenes that stick with us, and, for one reason or another, we simply cannot watch them again.

NBC

Well, I recently shared my scenes to look away to, and people have been kind enough to share theirs too.

So, here are 17 more movie scenes that people cannot watch again:

1. Requiem for a Dream

Summit Entertainment

"The final few minutes where we see what happened to the main characters are so incredibly disgusting and horrifying, they shook me to my core."

2. Poltergeist

United International Pictures

"I still can't watch the face-melting scene from the original movie. My grampa kept it on when he was watching me at the tender age of four and it has never left my brain. I don't care if, as an adult, the gore now looks like Play-Doh and ketchup. THAT MAN'S FACE MELTED OFF and then he noped right out of there."

3. The Sixth Sense

Buena Vista Pictures Distribution

"It was one of the first 'scary movies' I watched (I used quotations because I honestly think it’s more of a mystery/thriller than a scary movie). I can handle pretty much everything, except for the scene with the little girl under the bed. It freaked me out so much the first time that it just burnt a memory in me."

4. Who Framed Roger Rabbit

Warner Bros.

"The shoe scene (iykyk). I can’t even let myself think about it."

—kathrynvankirk

"I'm an '80s kid, so for me, it's the scene where the villain melts that poor poor cartoon shoe in that vat of acid. Watching that as a young child scarred me."

5. Doomsday

Universal Pictures

"There's a scene where a group of cannibals literally roasted a guy alive and ate him. I regret watching that movie."

6. Reservoir Dogs

Miramax Films

"When the Policeman's ear is cut off. I've watched that film so many times, but I've never actually looked at that bit. Good song though."

7. Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom

Paramount Pictures

"It may be dumb, but the tunnel full of bugs scene is sickening."

8. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

Warner Bros. Pictures

"I am hugely arachnophobic, and still to this day I have never sat through the Aragog scenes in Chamber of Secrets. I can’t even get through the chapter in the book."

—ajc1987

9. Sleepaway Camp

United Film Distribution Company

"The ending scene. The creepy face the girl makes and that guttural sound she’s making... Nope."

10. The Talented Mr. Ripley

Paramount Pictures

11. The Ring

DreamWorks Pictures

"The corpse in the closet scene. I work in a hospital and am addicted to horror movies (so I like to think that I’m not easily shocked), but nothing in my life before or since has unsettled me quite like that single scene has."

12. Ghostbusters

Columbia Pictures

"When the library ghost transformed at the beginning of Ghostbusters. I couldn't watch that scene for like 25 years."

13. Hereditary

A24

"Where Annie is sawing her head off with the piano string while staring at Peter." 

—alexiapalomo

14. Misery

Columbia Pictures

"The scene when Kathy Bates hits his feet with the sledgehammer. I’ve seen that movie several times, and have never been able to watch that part."

—lindsyc

15. The Family Stone

20th Century Studios

"The dinner scene. It may not be a horror movie, but it’s so uncomfortable and cringe."

16. Bridesmaids

Universal Pictures

"I have absolutely no stomach at all for horror, so gory scenes are never going to be an issue for me – I refuse to watch anything horror-related anyway. But, the food poisoning scene in Bridesmaids – yeah, that was the gross, dessert-ruining icing on an otherwise perfect cake, IMO. 

The rest of the movie was so clever and funny, and it's not even that I'm above a ~graphic ~ joke. But to me, it just didn't sit right in the film (if you'll excuse the pun)."

17. My Dog Skip

Warner Bros. Pictures

"There's a scene with a barn, and little me totally blocked out what exactly happened, but I know it was horrible and that I can never watch that movie again let alone that scene."

—innergrandma46

My note: I haven't seen My Dog Skip, but the description made me think of Old Yeller, which is not okay. No one should make me think of Old Yeller again.
