    Some of the darkest ones I’ve seen (most disturbing) aside from the torture porn genre of modern times come out of the 70’s. The OG chainsaw massacre, or Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer come to mind. They didn’t have a lot of censorship for some things back then. They got away with some pretty twisted shit on-screen.

        Yeah it wasn’t the gore or special effects that left a mark it was the psychological elements.
