where is the serbian movie?
This is missing August Underground
Omg
if you want turn someone into a Centipede man, at least turn them into a real centipede and not a human totem
What about “mother!”?
Honorable mentions?
A Serbian Film not making the list? Go home WM, you'e drunk.
What about: Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom?¿
Cannibal holocaust looks like Eli roth' s green inferno
I almost watched Serbian Film years ago but thank god it didn't happen. I threw up watching the trailer of Human Centipede so I'll neverrrr watch the movie. I've seen Cannibal Hollocaust and it was haunting me for days. Btw if you know the movie called The Girl Next Door (released in 2007), that's pretty disturbing as well. It based on true events during the '60s
Martyrs is a great movie. The message behind it is pure art.
I feel like lists like these should be like "Top 10 Controversial Films That Aren't 'A Serbian Film'." Like, Serbian Film is just a given at this point.
I hate the human centipide worst movie in the whole world
Disappointed that 'Freaks' didn't make the list. Talk about disturbing… 'One of us, one of us'…
“They’ll see. Why they’ll see and they’ll know.

There's still controversy to this day surrounding "Cannibal Holocaust". They shot the movie in the Amazon rain-forest of Colombia with indigenous tribes. Some people still believe that the woman who is on the post is real. The film maker claimed the woman was sitting on a unicycle but they were never able to recreate the scene to make it look that authentic again.
whats the song that plays all along the video called?

Psycho was also famous for killing what people thought was the protagonist in the first 15 minutes. Like if Scream had said Drew Barrymore was the main star.
While some of these films were actually controversial (a rarity for a watchmojo video about controversial movies/music/games etc.) please do a better job explaining why films such as Last House and I Spit on Your Grave were controversial instead of just saying they're violent.
PS: The Human Centipede was not controversial, stop adding it to your lists just for clicks
Listen. The Human Centipede is disturbing as hell, but still watchable. If A Serbian Film isn't #1 I'm going to be so disappointed. Could barely watch it.
Nope
I've seen Serbian Film and Human Centipede. Let me tell you, Serbian Film makes Human Centipede look like educational children's cartoons
Damn. No one can replicate what we did in the past. THESE MOVIES ARE LEGENDARY
august undergrounds mordum ?
Human centipede was way too much
4:02 really?!
