If you should consider renting any of the above list...

Believe me when I say that most of these movies are actually very scary, freaky, troubling and disturbing. I don't scare very easily either! Even for those of you to whom it takes quite a lot to scare... - BEWARE.

Faces of Death? Are we on the same page? Is this a movie or one of those things where they show various unsavory ways that people die? I rented one of those things years ago, sometime in the 80s, and was unable to watch more than the first 10 or 15 minutes. Too disturbing. I can take all the hollywood gore you want to throw my way, but when the blood is real I don't wanna watch.

Well...

It was low budget. So, I threw it in there. But I did mention the "disturbing" factor in the post.

I have seen disturbing movies, but only once each. And the reason for my even watching them at all was curiosity. I guess some of us carry a sense of morbid curiosity.

I'm not finding fault with your choices Hairspray, I was just unclear whether you were making reference to a movie or to the FoD series. I happen to find FoD a bit too unsettling for my tastes, but everyone isn't the same.

One of my uncles was a Medical Examiner, but that's not something that I could do. I guess the knowledge that what I'm looking at is a human being just bothers me a little. I used to slice up animals in HS biology with no problem at all, so the aversion isn't to the gore itself. Sighh... I'm just a 6'5" teddy bear at heart

Oh... I didn't mean to come across on the defensive in my response to you. There was no need for you to clarify yourself. You were right from the get-go in pointing out the fact that "Faces" was not really part of the category in question. It's a series and it's, in many respects, non-fiction. There's absolutely no entertainment value in watching that kind of thing. There's only just shock value for those who are curious about the darker things that lie beyond their reality. And let me tell ya -
I'm very, very happy to know that most of us are, indeed, far, far away from even coming close to that kind of reality!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
