Lars von Trier's experimental horror film Antichrist isn't for the faint of stomach, and according to some, so nauseatingly brutal as to be basically unfit for human consumption.

The movie follows an unnamed couple who, following the accidental death of their infant son, head to a cabin retreat in the hope of patching things up, only for quite the opposite to happen.

The film climaxes with the husband, He (Willem Dafoe), strangling his wife, She (Charlotte Gainbrough) to death, before burning her on a funeral pyre.

But He only survives after having withstood a stomach-churning amount of injury, including one of the most graphic genital-related catastrophes ever committed to film.

As their respective psyches break down, the pair become violent towards one another, culminating in an unforgettable sequence where She smashes his crotch to bits with a block of wood, and then forcefully masturbates him while he's unconscious, causing him to ejaculate blood.

From there, she then drills a hole through his leg and bolts a grindstone through the wound before trying to bury him alive, because why the hell not?

He survives the events of the movie, but at what cost? His knackers got crushed into a fine paste and he murdered his wife.
