Most disturbing scene in a movie
 

And by disturbing, I don't necessarily mean graphic. A scene that just hits you in the guts and just bothers you.

For me, it's the scene near the beginning of Regarding Henry in the convenience store, where Harrison Ford gets shot smack in the middle of the forehead, pauses, utters "I just wanted a pack of cigarettes" and then collapses. It almost seemed too real.

The knife scene in Saving Private Ryan. I simply cant watch it.

In the same movie, when Tom Hanks mutters "earn this." Clearly, we haven't.

Basically, the entire reactor accident sequence of the movie K-19. That was, by far, the most disturbing thing I have ever watched on film. Both because it really happened and because I could envision myself in the very same situation.

Easily the curbing scene in "Amercian History X".

The scene in "The descent" where one of them breaks her leg. Tough to watch.
The opening scene of Saw 2. Anything going near the eyes I can't take.

It worries me that the curb-stomp in AHX has never bothered me that much.

Another good one is in "Misery" where she breaks his leg.

Or in "Payback" where they break his toes.

I feel the same way about the scene where the medic gets shot and they make a futile effort to save him. Actually leave the room during that scene.

This is a good one. Radiation scares the crap out of me.
