The Most Sickeningly Violent Horror Movies of All Time
What are the most violent horror movies of all time?
If you’re someone who loves horror movies, then in all likelihood you love gore. If you love gore, some horror films have reputations for being particularly debased. These ‘video nasties’, as the British called them in the 80s, are what horror junkies pride themselves on watching. Violence, gore, and being disturbing get you points in the horror world. If you aren’t a convert, you’ll never get it. So, there’s gory and then there’s these 25 most violent horror movies. All of them are f—ed up beyond belief. Some of these films are on this list for one scene, while others are a never-ending parade of depravity. Either way, if you like sick, and have a strong stomach, check these out!Cannibal Holocaust (1978)
Let’s start with the film that most people point to as the most violent and disturbing film ever made.
Cannibal Holocaust is so violent and realistic, for many years there was a rumor it was a snuff film that depicted its actors getting killed onscreen. This Italian faux-documentary is still banned in a number of countries.
It was also a leading film in the ‘video nasty’ moral panic in 1980s Britain. Finally, its director faced obscenity charges in his native Italy.
This movie is truly horrifying, and if the cannibalism doesn’t turn your stomach, the animal cruelty will.
A Serbian Film (2010)

This 2010 entry has overtaken Cannibal Holocaust as the presumptive ‘most violent/ disturbing/ horrifying’ film of all time. Every person I know that has seen this film says it is worse than you could ever imagine.
Most horror films don’t live up to their horrifying reputations, but apparently the necrophilia, pedophilia, and sexual violence is worse than you could imagine. Someone rape’s a baby in it.
So, yeah…
The Human Centipede (First Sequence) (2009)
After A Serbian Film, almost anything would seem tame. The Human Centipede, though is not just any film. It is the film where tourists are turned into a giant centipede by stitching their mouths to the others’ asses. It is a horrifying concept dragged out into a violent, but generally underwhelming, trilogy.
I Spit on Your Grave (1978)
Ah, the much-maligned rape-revenge genre. You knew some of these films had to make it onto a list of the most violent horror films, didn’t you?
Well I Spit on Your Grave is generally considered the most morally odious entry in the genre. Roger Ebert famously called it ‘a vile bag of garbage’, which most horror fans take as a mark of quality.
