Movies I hate
I hate most of the following movies because they are either too violent, too sexist, or too disturbing. I try not to see these types of movies, but the descriptions and reviews and hype that movies are advertised with are often very (and probably purposefully) misleading and inaccurate.
Punch-Drunk Love Too much pointless violence. And why would the female lead be at all interested in Adam Sandler's character?
Face/Off Way too violent and disturbing.
The Piano :Puke Ick, horribly misogynist, violent, disturbing, upsetting. Just dreadful.
Vanilla Sky Stupid and violent movie.
Sleeping with the Enemy Totally disgusting movie full of sensationalized sexist violence.
Pretty Woman Gross, sexist movie.
The Royal Tenenbaums This movie just bored me to tears, so boring that I've already forgotten about the offensive parts.
American Beauty The affair between the old dude and the young girl: totally nasty.
The Blair Witch Project A pathetic excuse for a movie. And I can't believe that the producers lied and said the footage and murders were real.
G.I. Jane Too much violence for me. And the attempted rape scene is really disturbing.
Arachnophobia Yuck. And also what a stupid movie!
Misery This movie has haunted me for years, and not in a good way. I truly regret seeing it. Well, I regret seeing all of these movies...but the perverse, sadistic, and way too graphic scene of violence in this movie just turns my stomach...even all these years later.
Harold and Maude This movie is too depressing!
Priest This movie would have been a good movie except for one major flaw that ruins the entire movie for me: the main priest character finds out about the sexual abuse of a child in his parish, but doesn't act to save her from being repeatedly raped by her father because he has some lofty ideals about the confidentiality of confession. Then in the end the girl supposedly doesn't mind that the priest didn't help her, and in fact she feels some implausible affinity towards him just because he's gay. Whatever.
Twin Peaks Ick. Another ridiculously violent, sexist and disturbing movie.
Thieves (Les Voleurs) This French film was pathetic, and the way the female protagonist is exploited bothers me. And then there are also several disturbing scenes.
Guardian of the Frontier (Varuh Meje) This is a Slovenian film that is one of the worst movies ever made. It's basically a horror/pornographic movie. Yuck.
