What's so mindfucking about The Matrix?

I think you're over complicating it. Why shouldn't it be real? Everything is clear from the start to the end, and I don't think that's a mindfucking movie .

Well, I saw Irreversible yesterday; it was not mind fucking, just shockingly aggressive, that's all.

My weird mind fucking movies: I'll just mention 4 for now:

Antichrist: very good movie although a really difficult one, a lot of symbolism, maybe a movie to see more times, but I don't have the guts right now, maybe in a few years.

Audition: weird, violent and disturbing movie, although directed nicely.

Martyrs: very violent and disturbing movie, not for the faint-hearted.

Carnival of Souls (1962): a very weird movie, but I loved it - the acting and the directing were great IMO. The story was not difficult to get into and the twist at the end rather predictable, but it was quite suspenseful. Intentionally shot in black and white, there wouldn't have been the same effect had it been in colour.

The Fountain and Primer. Dunno if they've been said but they sure as shit are mindfucks.

I just included it because of the three paralleling storylines and especially the one in the future. You're right, not exactly a mindfuck but it's a movie that makes you think.

Hard Candy. I watched half of it (the other half) yesterday. I've seen my fair share of mindfucking movies, but this one takes the cake. I recommend
Anyway this teenage girl seduces an alleged pedophile only to have him tortured psychologically (like, belief that he's going to get castrated), and in the end convincing him to suicide. Though we learn near the end of the movie that he indeed has pedophile urges and that he participated in the killing of another teenage girl, so his fate seems justified.

Yeah Hard Candy is a great thriller andf the fact that it is based on actual real life experience (Japanese girls dating older mens online and beating them once they meet) is quite troubling.Personally I think Pedophiles deserves to be hang by the balls and that movie delivered just that

Couldn't agree more. The movie was kind of disturbing to watch as a man (jesus, just think if you were lying on that "operation table"), but it was a good thriller. And after all, it made many people's wish come true: pedophile getting a nightmare ride which he deserved. Tho there could have been more humilation
When you take into account that the whole movie happens in a small house with only 2 characters, you have to give a praise to the director and writer.

From candy to creaks of machines. IMO whole SAW trilogy is "mind fucking". Ye, they made it rather long and it started to repeat itself, but yet the trilogy kept the storyline rather solid. It's interesting to watch the first movie and think "Oh, just another Hostel.", but then comes the second and you start to think the plot all over again and reconsider the actions of the characters. I loved those "reveals" in 4th or 5th movie which showed the past events in a whole new light.

If anyone can get a version of SALO (Italian adaptation of 101 days of Sodom by Marquee de Sade), let me know what you think. I vote for the butterknife in the anus scene.

Haha >.< I totally forgot about that film. I don't think I've ever seen so much excrement in any film, truly a fucked up piece of work.

But yeah, problem with the Saw films is that they cost naff all to make (well 10 mil) and always end up making 1000% profit. They should have stopped after the second one. The third one was too brutal, the scene where the female doctor gets her head blown off ranks as the most gratuitous for me personally, along with the scene in Pan's Labrynth where the guy gets his skull caved in with the butt of a gun. They might not be the most graphic ever but the contexts in which they happen are just too much.

It might have been mentioned due to its notoriety but I watched The Human Centipede the other day, where a crazy German surgeon kidnaps three people and surgically sews them ass-to-mouth. It was actually not that shocking and not a bad film in the end.
