50 first dates should be on here. imagine being introduced to adam sandler every single day for the rest of your life.

The human centipede is a whole nother kind of gross and weird.

Splinter is even more terrifying than described here. It doesn't take over your brain, it just uses your body, and whether you're alive or not doesn't concern it. The guy you saw in the bathroom that got up and broke his ankle was still alive and fully aware of what was happening.

Jeff Golblum in 'The Fly' was definitely one of the most realistic, intense and heartbreaking performances I've ever seen.

Tusk was something truly psychologically scaring. Tusk: Please kill me

Kind of amazing how youtube allows us to show people literally melting into one another, yet seeing a nipple on a woman is just too much.

Fun Fact: The pregnancy scene in Inseminoid, the scene where the woman is screaming, is exactly where the jumpscare scream from *Five Nights at Freddy's* came from!

Just showed my dad Tusk after he asked if I wanted to watch some horror movies for Halloween. At the end he said "Son, I'm 67 years old, and I've have seen a lot of weird s***, but this by far has to be the weirdest" I'd call that a win.

I knew this was going to be disturbing. Why did i watch this?

Body horror has to be the most disturbed genre to ever surface on this planet.. Yuck

(01:02) The Beach House (02:02) Rabid (03:08) Society (04:12) The Fly (05:15) The Human Centipede (06:21) Tusk (07:29) Contracted (08:28) Inseminoid (09:42) Splinter (10:34) Antiviral

I don't remember how old I was when I watched Tusk, but Jesus christ I regret it so much. I actually watched it with my dad and he was just as horrified as I was. Me and my dad actually watched some more movies on this list too, like human centipede and the fly. I remember my dad being like "they didn't just end him!? If I saw a half walrus half man I'd just kill him, call me heartless but he don't deserve that suffering!" it made me laugh a bit but I still had a nightmare.

The idea of a conscious person gradually becoming a zombie is so much more horrific than the living dead trope

"Being a fungus filled zombie..." Ethan Winters: You called?

imagine that girl trying to explain why her and her ex broke up.... "Yeah it was going fine, then he was turned into a human skinned walrus."

You know that the list has something to offer when human centipede is just number 6

The ending of THE MIST. Easily worse than death.

I watched Tusk with my mom and the ending was so weird to her she brings it up constantly when something doesn't make sense in a movie. "Why would they let him live at the zoo???? They just left him in the skin suit and stuck him in a zoo???"

Who knew an alien birthing would give us the most iconic horror game scream

That one episode in Hannibal where victims where still alive eventhough they were buried and decaying and have plants coming out of them because they are one with the soil 😭

Tusk made sure that i'd never look at Walruses the same ever again.

What scares me the most is how happy she sounds talking about this.

You forgot to mention in Splinter that the fungus forcing your body to mace around doesn’t always move at the joints and will instead snap every bone in your body one by one! So that’s a horrifying thought.

I think you could also include Cleopatra, the acrobat in the movie "Freaks". She had to spend the rest of her life with her head attached to the body of a chicken.

Body horror is the only genre of horror that is actually truly scarry.

* Someone gets transformed into a spiky fungi zombie * Leon S. Kennedy: *Excitedly unsheathes knife*

Actually, the worst human hybrid example happens in Full Metal Alchemist, when a mad man fuses his daughter and her dog into one, very much in pain, creature. It's heartbreaking in the extreme.

That is not the original “The Fly”. In the original movie, the man doesn’t turn into a fly over time, but as he and the fly get transported to the other pod, the man’s head and left(?) hand get swapped with the fly’s. The wife and the man try to find the fly with the “white head” that now had the mans head so they could try to put them back through the pod to swap the parts again, but the man almost gets caught by another person so he has his wife crush his fly head and hand with a giant hydraulic press, killing him, but erasing the evidence of his mutation.

The rich upper class people in "Society" weren't aliens, they are from Earth, they just aren't human. They're evolved from worms not apes, thats why they can do all that weird shit.

Why the hell did they put him in a wildlife sanctuary instead of just capping him like any decent person would do? smh. you know what? just tell me the name of the sanctuary, im going walrus hunting.

I'm still freaked out by the fly. I grew up in the 80's so as a small kid it's one of the first I saw. Figured it was just a typical horror movie and it starts out kinda cheerful but goes down such a dark tunnel. It was just sick and depressing 😆

Maybe these movies aren’t conventionally scariest of all time, but they scar me and scare me the most. Tusk still HAUNTS me. That’s the only movie I’ve ever had trouble finishing. And something left out about the Fly that was even sicker than included here: before Brundle went through the pod with a piece of metal to become that monstrosity, he was urging his girlfriend to go into the pod WITH him to create a “family.” I can’t fathom the concept of their two minds somehow sharing a deformed human-fly hybrid body… how would that work? That gave me nightmares. In a similar vein but not included on this list because it isn’t a central point, I accidentally walked in on Alien 4 as a kid, and I was forever traumatized by the severely deformed science projects gone wrong in the lab, the horror in that woman’s eyes… This video I think is the optime of the type of horror stories that haunt me the most.

Tusk is probably the only horror movie that scares me and makes me wanna vomit

The Human Centipede ending is particularly awful when considering what the body does after death: vacating of the bowels. Lindsay is indeed suffering until she finally dies herself. I’d honestly follow the dude’s lead and end it myself.

Slither, one of my first real body horror movies, watched it over a decade ago as a tween and i still recall parts of that movie. Really good and totally worth being on here!

A correction for you: The Cronenberg version of The Fly (1986), which you described as an “original,” is actually a remake; the very first version of The Fly, in fact, came out about 30 years earlier in 1958.

This is basically a list of 10 films that shouldn't exist.

The human centipede was legitimately the most horrifying movie I have ever seen.

I was really confused seeing Tusk as number five. What could be worse than being mutilated into a walrus using the skin of other people and your own bones? Then I realize, JESUS. The last one is HORRIFYING.

Splinter was low-budget but so well-made. It's one of those rare gems that aren't mainstream.

I'm still pissed at myself for ever watching "Tusk".

I ate a bagel while watching this, I have no emotions anymore

Another one worth mentioning: that subjected to experiments girl in the segment "The Subject" from the horror movie V/H/S/94...she went from a sweet and beautiful young girl to a freak humanoid cyborg with a bizarre camera set on the place of her head...and the worst thing is: she appearantly survived after leaving that horror basement...she went missing 1 month ago based on the time the scene took place and her family was hopeful about having her back, imagine the impact for family and friends of having her back like that, as well as the further challenges that such condition will socially and physically bring her...

The Wax House is the worse one for me. Your entire skin gets turned to wax, you can’t move anything but your eyes, your waxed skin can get torn off easily and it’s agonizingly painful and you’re still alive. If that were to happen to me I ‘d want someone to shoot me.

I love how she says "unimaginable amounts of horror and pain" in a happy tone

I clicked this list to find out where Human Centipede ranked on the list.

1. The Beach House 2. Rabid 3. Society 4. The Fly 5. The Human Centipede 6. Tusk 7. Contracted 8. Inseminoid 9. Splinter 10. Antiviral

I just want to say, regarding entry 4, and the idea that seeing one person slowly turning undead is a lot scarier than a zombie apocalypse… oversharing about an illness below- I had Lyme’s disease in 2018. Thankfully, that’s the closest I’ve ever felt to death, but I swear that’s what turning undead feels like. Too dizzy to stand, no appetite, shivering but sweating through PJs/bedsheets/mattress, and a pounding headache that feels like your skull is about to burst open…it was the worst illness I’ve ever experienced

Tusk’s ending is logically stupid- the walrus suit was a suit, he could be easily taken out of it and treated BUT it was incredibly disturbing anyways

I remember watching “Tusk” in theaters. There was about 7-8 other people in the theater. By the end of the film there was 3. The ending was really crazy to see...

Fun fact: That birth scene from Inseminoid is where Scott Cawton got the Animatronic screams for FNaF.

I was looking for a few movies for a very long time, I found it thanks to you, thank you very much

The movies listed in this video: 10. The Beach House 9. Rabid 8. Society 7. The Fly 6. The Human Centipede 5. Tusk 4. Contracted 3. Inseminoid 2. Splinter 1. Antiviral

The stuff in Annihilation while not traditional "body horror" racked my brain more than an of these. The fungus corpse on the wall, the slithering intestines, the tree people... probably because it was a beautiful movie at the same time. So fucked up and underrated.

Splinter is such an underrated movie. I remember when I happened across it on syfy one late night. It scarred me so much haha.

after my bestfriend told me about the movie Tusk, i could never look at those animals the same again.

The Fly is not really scary. It's just very sad. He got shot by his own wife because he was in such pain.

I love how the narrator has a nice grandma voice while telling you the most grotesque stuff youll ever hear😂

There's actually a young adult book about some crash landed young teens on a mad scientist island. The scientist turns three of them a giant fish, giant bird, and giant snake. A very weird body horror for 13 year olds. I read it 12 years ago, so definitely before Tusk.

The ending to the Fly II is the most disturbing thing I've seen in a movie. The man is reduced to a pile of meat with an eyeball and a tongue while his colleagues watch him drink from a bowl.

"Black Mirror" - "White Christmas" episode was not a horror but at the end it has the worst fate I can imagine.

Fun stuff, I've yet to see a couple of them. And Slither is also quite "body", as is the eternal Videodrome. Liked, subbed an belled. Maybe you could do a video on kinky movies if you haven't done so? Some examples would be Moebius, Doll Syndrome and Xpiation. Thanks for the vid!

David Cronenbergs “The Fly” was not an original. It’s based on Kurt Neumanns 1958 original “The Fly”

Okay, so we should probably add some context to "Contracted." The real tragedy in that film is that Samantha, who is a lesbian, is date-raped early in the film. From this sexual assault she contracts the virus which turns her into a zombie. Her doctor doesn't believe her when she says she hasn't had sex with a man in over a year, and judges her for having contracted an STD. The zombie thing is just a metaphor.

I had a nightmare once where an AI captured someone, which because they were trying to escape, decided they were "defective", and decided to "dismantle them" to figure out what the problem was. So the victim was immobilized in an operating chair, injected with strong pain suppressants, and then slowly dissected by the AI, while being kept conscious and alive. Check out photos of people killed by bears, then imagine being in a similar condition, but alive. I claim royalties from anyone reading this who actually makes a film including this idea.

Good to hear the Body Horror genre is still alive and strong

I COULDNT EVEN HANDLE PINNOCHIO WHAT MADE ME THINK I COULD HANDLE THIS?!

I thought the human centipede was literally a crawling fleshy centipede not what it actually was

How about the ending of "Drag me to hell"? A character who certainly does not deserve her fate one bit, spending eternity there? And what about her poor boyfriend, who saw it happen, was powerless to help her, and knows nobody will ever believe him (assuming there were no security cameras pointing that direction)?

awesome. many of these I haven't heard of!

An honorable mention from me would be the movie “Slither”.

I've seen what cancer can do to people... Imagining what it would be like if the person who had it was immortalized with it is absolutely nightmarish...The amount of pain they'd be in... It would be the worst fate imaginable

Two additional movies that belong on this list: - The Stuff (1985) An alien goo that resembles marshmallow fluff becomes mass marketed, becoming in many cases all that people will eat (and they’re happy to do so) because it takes over their minds. It even eventually hollows out their bodies. - Slither (2006) Alien slugs enter people through their mouths and turn them into zombies that crave flesh. One woman is turned into a gigantic, trapped breeding sow (for lack of a better term). She grows to be about twenty feet in diameter, literally filled inside-to bursting-with the infectious slugs.

Pretty solid list, this. I was a bit happily surprised to see Inseminoid on here. + I had no idea they'd remade Rabid! How the hell did that fly under my radar?

Suspiria is awful. One girl gets all twisted into a pretzel all her bones broken but forced to never die. The other witch finally kills her out of pity

Contracted was so anger inducing. A lesbian who just had her girlfriend break up with her is sexually assaulted by a necrophiliac afterward and is given a metaphorical STD and shamed the entire film. It's pretty insulting really. Sad film all around.

i am absolutely horrified of the genre but at the same time i am strangely obsessed with it for some reason, like i need too see it

You should see Return of the Living Dead. After breathing in an experimental gas 2 men go through all the stages of rigor mortis while still conscious. All their organs stop working so they have no pulse so their blood settles and pools in one place, they lose all body heat and feel frozen, they aren't breathing so they feel like they are choking, their body stiffens so they can barely move and whenever someone else tries to move them their bodies make horrendous cracking sounds. Finally their brains go and they truly become zombies. These aren't typical zombies though as they can still think, talk, and run just like any alive person only with a taste for brains as that is the only thing that can alleviate their pain. Even if chopped to pieces they will not die.

James gunn’s slither would be an absolutely terrible fate.

'The Human Centipede'- Me: *GAGS* Literally, I wasn't even looking at the screen or anything, I was checking my phone. All it took was me *hearing* the name of the movie and memories just flooded back and I gagged 😅

I knew this would give me nightmares or strange dreams tonight, but I _still_ had to watch it

Thanks for the movie recommendations. There's a few movies I haven't seen in this list that I will definitely go watch now!! Btw lifeforce is pretty good. Vampire zombies never disappoint.

Bro Tusk made me get so nauseous. I cant imagine having to live as a weird looking human-walrus.

Juni Ito's work is a whole other level

the first one that came to mind was The Fly. imagine living as a giant human fly for the rest of your life. (yes i know he dies at the end)

Splinter is an amazing take on the body horror/zombie trope

Although it only lasted a minute. They should have included Emil's Toxic Waste acid bath from Robocop.

Actually, you’re conscious until the splinter does something that kills you. One of the humans infected was screaming as he was contorted by the splinter and begging to be killed.

Hope everyone's doing well. You're a huge inspiration to me and my tiny lil horror channel, much love🤍

Fun fact, Inseminoid is where the FNAF 1 jumpscare sound originated. Specifically, the scene where the woman is giving birth to the alien babies.

I watched tusk not knowing what i was getting into Needless to say Shit was disturbing af 😂

Some honorable mentions: Dr. Weir's fate in 'Event Horizon'; Anna's fate in 'Martyrs' (2008); every single victim in John Carpenter's 'The Thing' except for Clark who had it relatively easy (just a bullet to the head instead of merging with an ancient alien monster); and the sloth victim's fate in 'Seven'.

I still get ptsd from watching tusk and I didn't even finish the whole thing genuinely messed up my head for about a year after watching

4:01 I always wondered where they get their characters in Alex Kidd in Miracle World, now I know.

I don’t know how people can watch these movies in total. Just watching this video, my hands are shaking and my stomach is queasy.

I don't even watch horror movies and I'm lighthead now. Why did I click this

I remember watching Contracted after having taken ambien and WOW that was an… *experience*

Why didn't the walrus guy just get a real walrus

The survivor in Terrifier is definitely having a pretty rough time.

Yo, Anna from Martyrs who was literally flayed alive and survived, should be in here somewhere.
