10 Most Disturbing Star Wars Moments
2. Darth Vader Is Fried Alive
It was always going to take some seriously horrific battle wounds to leave one of the most powerful Jedi ever to walk the galaxy relying on an excessively loud mechanical suit for the rest of his days.
And sure enough, the fiery conclusion of Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi's Mustafar clash for the ages left little doubt in anyone's mind that this Chosen One was in need of some serious TLC post-high-ground cock-up.

The uncomfortable times only kept on coming, too, as the mind behind the galaxy then committed to an extended shot of a scorched Vader squirming in agony on a surgical table as the various cyborg elements of his eventual masked alter-ego were coldly lodged into permanent position by medical bots.
