People Are Sharing The Movies That Disturbed Them So Much They Vowed To Never Watch Them Again, And Here Are The Most Surprising Ones
Earlier this month, @0xHermione asked the people of Reddit: 'What's a movie that disturbed you so much, you'd never watch it again?' The responses were varied, to say the least, with quite a few surprising choices sneaking in alongside the usual suspects of The Human Centipede, Martyrs, and A Serbian Film.
Here are 18 movies that you might not have expected to make the cut:
Some posts have been edited for clarity.
1.'This is probably gonna be so far out of left field but The Pursuit of Happyness unlocked a fear in me that I didn't know existed as an adolescent.'
— FlexuhLot
2.'Jurassic Park. I don't recall which, but it was the one where the island gets destroyed by a volcano (Editor's note: This is in Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom.) At the time, I was a grieving child who had recently lost a pet cat, and watched the movie to distract myself from that loss. Seeing the Brontosaurus getting covered by the smoke just made all those feelings rush back in. Don't think I'll watch a Jurassic Park movie ever again.'
— Sauce-Gaming
3.'We Live In Time with Florence Pugh and Andrew Garfield, I had just had my second daughter when we watched it, and I cried for 4 days straight, felt very empty inside after. Shame [because] it's such a beautiful film.'
— Mozzarella_dippers
4.'Bambi. I was 6. I cried so hard I threw up and blamed the dog. He got yelled at. I've lived with that guilt for 20 years. Still won't rewatch it.'
— Machineabyss764
5."The NeverEnding Story. The horse scene traumatized me when I watched it as a child, and I never watched it again.'
— Green_Top_Hat
6.'Anything where the animal dies. I'm never watching Marley and Me again.'
— Something-funny-26
7.'A Star Is Born. Great movie, compelling story, but just too freaking depressing.'
— tardisthecat
8.'Us. The facial expressions and the big eyes from the actresses alone are enough to make me not [want] to watch it again.'
— WajajaKEKW
9.'Wedding Daze. Most uncomfortable movie I've ever seen.'
— IndianaFarthouse
10.'Looper. When the old guy finds the writing in his arm and then parts of him start disappearing, my mouth was agape. I was so disturbed by the whole movie...never watching again.'
— marriedtomayonnaise
11.'Unpopular opinion, but The Mask. I was a kid when I watched it and it haunted me as to how people can change and wear a mask to appear nice and good.'
— Mediocre-Albatross84
12.'I was going to add Final Destination 2 myself, because of the highway scene. Everyone who has seen that film refuses to drive behind log trucks because of it.'
— res30stupid
13.'Million Dollar Baby. I've said it numerous times before — it's the best movie I never want to see again.'
— retailguy_again
14.'I Am Legend. I could never watch that dog die again. I cried so much in cinema, it kind of broke me a little bit inside.'
— iScraM
15.'Pinocchio. It's the whale. I watched horror flicks as a kids without issue but that whale? I still can't watch.'
— LaoghaireElgin
16.'The Wizard of Oz. Seriously. Watched it as a very young child and the Witch of the West freaked me out.'
— Sittingpretti24
17.'Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. It's basically a snuff film where sentient animals are tortured disguised as a Marvel movie.'
— Arglebarglor
And finally…
18.'Teletubbies: The Movie. I know it's for kids, but why do they stare into the void like they know how the world ends? And that baby sun? It watched me sleep for three nights after. I didn't survive that movie… I respawned with trust issues.'
— HeeledNDangerous

Bad Bunny Shares Cryptic Instagram Message as Tourists in Puerto Rico Go Viral for Allegedly Killing Endangered Coquís
Some tourists went viral on Reddit after bragging about silencing Puerto Rico's iconic coquí frogs The post sparked backlash, with Puerto Ricans calling the act disrespectful to the island's culture and wildlife Bad Bunny responded on Instagram, amplifying the coquí's croak as a subtle but powerful defense of his home, Puerto RicoBad Bunny is once again using his platform to speak out for Puerto Rico, this time not just through his lyrics but through his actions and love for the island. On Wednesday, May 28, the global superstar, whose real name is Benito Martínez Ocasio, shared a cryptic message on Instagram Stories, which many took as a response to a growing controversy about the coquí, Puerto Rico's iconic little frog with the big voice. As per mitú, Bad Bunny posted a black screen with a drawn-out version of his song 'Qué Le Pasó a Hawaii' from his latest album Debi Tirar Mas Fotos, that featured the croak of the coquí turned way up. It all started when a Reddit post on the r/PuertoRicoTravel subreddit went viral. A tourist at a restaurant in Condado was reportedly overheard bragging about spraying something at their Airbnb to quiet the coquís. The coquís' nightly song is considered one of the island's most cherished and recognizable sounds. Puerto Rican content creators quickly pushed back, calling the move disrespectful to both local culture and native wildlife. Many locals called out the harmful action in the comments, writing: 'If you don't like the coquí, maybe Puerto Rico isn't the place for you.' Beyond being annoying to a few tourists, this issue touches on something much more serious. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, 'Any person that injures, captures, or kills a Coquí guajón destroy its eggs, and/or modify its critical habitat is subject to penalties under Federal law.' Though the Coquí guajón is one species, the common coquí is found everywhere on the island. Nonetheless, their protection matters to both conservationists and island residents. For Bad Bunny, his Story wasn't just about frogs: It was about respect for the island, its culture and the people who live there. He's been sounding that alarm for a while now with Debi Tirar Mas Fotos, specifically his song 'Qué Le Pasó a Hawaii,' which warns against Puerto Rico following in Hawaii's footsteps with over-tourism and outside investments that in his eyes, have chipped away at Puerto Rico's identity. In the song, he sings, 'They want to take the river and the beach away from me ... They want my neighborhood and my grandma gone.' Throughout the track, the coquí's croak echoes briefly in the background. Alongside the album, he released a short film, which was a visual love letter to Puerto Rico. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. It features 'Toad Concho,' a frog mascot that's part playful character and part symbol for the island's vulnerable wildlife. Like the song, the film reinforces what's at stake. For many Puerto Ricans, the coquí isn't just a frog; it's home. And with one simple Instagram post, Bad Bunny managed to remind the world of that. Read the original article on People

A Husband Asks, 'Can Someone Confirm My Wife's Spending Is Delusional?' He Points To $6,769 Spent On Dining Out In Just 90 Days
A recent Reddit post from a frustrated husband in the r/Dave Ramsey subreddit caught people's attention after asking if his wife's spending habits were out of line. His main complaint? Over the last 90 days, the family spent $6,769 on dining out alone. 'Luckily we are positive net worth,' he wrote. 'But she is delaying our retirement saying her spending is normal for having 2 kids. I cover probably 80-90% of essentials from my side.' According to his breakdown, they also spent $1,330 on groceries during the same period, along with $1,230 on supplies, $1,250 on healthcare, $560 on gas, and $1,200 on other expenses. Don't Miss: Deloitte's fastest-growing software company partners with Amazon, Walmart & Target – Maker of the $60,000 foldable home has 3 factory buildings, 600+ houses built, and big plans to solve housing — The response was swift and nearly unanimous. One commenter was particularly direct: 'Dining out isn't just delusional, it's irresponsible and incredibly selfish. That's almost $30k a year.' They also pointed out that if they placed that money with a financial advisor, 'at $2k a month, and they earned an average of 12%, you have almost $650k in 15 years.' Another person added their own math of how much they could get over 30 years if they invested that money: '$6769 was for 3 months, so $27k/year. Turns into $3 mil in 30 years at 8%.' Others were comparing themselves: 'We make $380k a year and eat out about $500/month. That dining out number is terrifying.' Trending: Maximize saving for your retirement and cut down on taxes: . While many were focused on the spending itself, others pushed the husband to reconsider how he approached the issue. 'Stop saying 'I cover most of the bills...' you are we,' one person said, pointing to the importance of shared financial responsibility in a marriage, something Dave Ramsey often teaches and preaches. Another chimed in with, 'This reads more like a marriage issue than a money issue. Does she handle all of the child rearing and housework? Get off the spreadsheet and be the partner your wife needs and communicate through this issue.' Still, others called for practical changes instead of blame. 'Cut dining out to a quarter of that and add 1-2 grand to groceries and cook more – problem solved.'Many asked for more context, like income and lifestyle. Some speculated that the high numbers may be inflated by convenience apps like DoorDash. The original poster later clarified that his wife eats out '2x a day at nice restaurants always with extra appetiser or entree with some meal for kids.' Another commenter couldn't believe it: 'That is not normal. Eating out is luxury, a treat. Eating out twice a day is not normal. She is choosing eating out over your future.' Others shared how they made it work. 'We make $240k a year and it was our New Year's resolution to eat out once a month,' one user wrote. 'We spend maybe $100/month eating out and that's because we're trying.' In the end, what this comes down to is that the spending problem the poster has isn't just about dollars and cents. 'Delusional is not a word to use if you want to have a happy marriage,' one person advised. 'Some work to be done on spending and discussing spending.'

"You Are The Reason That People In Our Community Don't Feel Safe": Reneé Rapp Went Off At People Getting Upset That She Identifies As A Lesbian Now Instead Of Bi
Reneé Rapp is firing back at those who criticized her sexual identity journey, after confirming she's a lesbian. When she came out as bisexual in 2020, Reneé received both praise and ridicule. Many fans celebrated her as a member of the LGBTQ+ community, while others questioned if she was queerbaiting. Despite it all, she's always openly and proudly shared her love for women. Fast forward to January 2024, the "Tummy Hurts" singer made her Saturday Night Live debut, where she served as the show's musical guest, and even made a guest appearance in a sketch called "Entertainment Tonight Lip-Readers." In the skit, Reneé was introduced as the "little lesbian intern." Coming out as a lesbian on SNL was a last-minute decision for her. In an interview with Them, she revealed the script originally said "little bisexual intern," but she asked the writers to make the change, despite being nervous about how viewers would react. 'They were so sweet," Reneé told Them. "And obviously, they were going to be so sweet. But to me, I was thinking about being so afraid to publicly change my identity. I didn't want anybody to be upset with me," she said of the experience. Reneé, who'd essentially been unofficially crowned as a bi-icon on the internet, was hesitant about switching the label publicly, fearful doing so would "make bisexual people feel shitty," and that referring to herself as "gay" would prompt backlash from fellow queer people who felt like she was inappropriately using the label. "I felt so wrapped up and scared." That same year, Reneé went public with her relationship with fellow singer Towa Bird. They walked the Vanity Fair Oscars afterparty red carpet together in March 2024. But that same fear Reneé had about people responding negatively to her lesbian identity back in 2024 became a reality in 2025. The former Sex Lives of College Girls star took to Instagram Live to vent her frustrations regarding some of the backlash she's received. Related: "It Was Not Right": Shailene Woodley Broke Her Silence About The Aaron Rodgers Breakup "Did you not fucking hear me when I just said I'm a lesbian? When I said I'm a big, bad, fucking lesbian?" Renee asked on Instagram Live, per Reddit. "Did you not just fucking hear me? Did you decide to stop listening in that moment? Shut the fuck up. Shut the fuck up." "Here's why I'm fucking pissed: You are the reason that people in our community don't feel safe coming out and changing and evolving. That is the reason why. We got a lot of other people who are fucking us up, but I'm saying in our community, if you don't allow people to change and to evolve and grow and grow into themselves — I'm so sorry, I grew up in the South me stop myself because I will start crying. I grew up in the South, where you don't do that." Related: Sophie Turner Opened Up About Her "Incredibly Sad" Split From Joe Jonas Reneé then admitted that she felt like she "had to be bisexual" because it was more digestible and acceptable for others if she still assumed a "closeness" to heterosexuality and men. "I felt like for so long I had to be bisexual because I had to assume closeness to a sexuality that could lead to being with a man," she continued. "That is something that I struggled with for such a fucking long time. So for you to get in your fucking comments and in my fucking comments and say that it's not fair that I decided to start identifying as a lesbian because you didn't like the fucking way I went about you! Fuck you!" "I'm glad that you felt comfortable in your sexuality your entire life. I'm glad that you felt like that, truly. I'm so glad. I wish that I had that when I was growing up, but I didn't. It pisses me the fuck off, because that is why people don't feel the validity to change and to grow and to grow into themselves. Everybody grows up in a different way. Everybody comes out in a different way. We hit, like, a second puberty. If you're gay, sometimes you find your people later on in your life, and you grow into yourself. Allow people the space to grow and change and to move forward and to identify how they want." "I have so many of my friends who later on in life, have come into their gender, have come into their sexuality, have changed their sexuality — God forbid I decided that I was a lesbian. God for fucking bid! There's a lot of stuff you can play with me on. Don't play in my face about that. Don't fucking play in my face about that." Reneé went on to reveal that when she has kids, she won't tolerate anyone being an "asshole" to her children if they were figuring out their sexuality as well. There was no hint of humor in her voice either — she was not playing. "Do not make people in our own community feel unsafe to be themselves," Reneé added. "We are too close to pride month for you to piss me off like that. I'm not playing about that. That is one comment that irks me to my core. It makes me feel sad and it makes me feel insecure, because that's something that I had to deal with for such a long time in my life, and so many people do." "Just please, for the love of God, let people be. I get it, this is our identity, right? It is a sacred space. It is special. It is exclusive in so many ways, but you gotta let people be. You gotta let people be. You got to." Honestly, good for her. Sexuality isn't always as black and white as people may think. Allowing people to discover themselves in all facets of life is a part of growing. To hear more from Reneé, you can watch her full response here.
