25 Spine-Chilling Gore Movies (Not For Weak Hearted)

[JANASENA]

Gore films are the couch potato version of 'aaj kuch toofani karte hain!'

This bloody (literally) genre inflicts viewers with graphic visuals. Guts are spilled, eye balls are spliced out with surgical knives, the human anatomy is split wide open to give us a closer look at the organs in our body. However, these also have a cult following and include some of the best stuff you can watch with your friends on night-outs. 

Here's a list of 25 gut-wrenching films, which make you question as to how much is too much?

 

1. Requiem for a Dream (USA), 2000

Not much for blood or gore, but this is one harrowing movie about a couple of drug-peddlers, a sex worker and an elderly woman hell-bent on losing weight via 'diet pills'. Deeply depressing.

2. The Evil Dead (USA, 1982 & 2013)

One of the pioneers of the gore genre, the original catapulted Sam Raimi into the spotlight. It's about five friends who head to a house and are hunted by demons.

3. Saw series (2003-2010)

The first film was a massive surprise for most, however it gave birth to a series that was steadily on a decline - however, the gore quotient kept increasing in each film. Centered around a killer named 'Jigsaw' - these spill plenty of blood.

4. A Serbian Film (Serbia, 2010)

This film is an advertisement for necrophilia and pedophilia themed 'snuff film'. An aging porn star agrees to be a part of an snuff film posing as an 'art film' and the terrible events that transpire after that.

14. Battle Royale (Japan, 2000)

The film follows a bunch of 9th graders in a future Utopian Japan - who are kidnapped and locked down in an institution. Only way to survive? Kill the others and be the last one standing. This movie was cited by Quentin Tarantino as his favorite movie of the past 20 years.

15. Chopping Mall (USA, 1986)

This might be considered by some as a tacky gore film, it still makes the list because of its ghastly visuals. The film follows a group of teenagers stuck in a mall being chased by flesh-eating robots. Some of the thrills might look dated - however, it still managed to scare the crap out of the writer.

17. Grotesque (Japan, 2009)

Starring three principal characters - a couple on their first date, and a 'doctor' who kidnap them, tortures them and sadistically heals them to torture them even more. It has one of the goriest scene in which a man's intestines are hooked up to a wire and he's asked to break free.
