8 Most Indefensible Movie Scenes Ever

6. Christopher Rapes A Goat - Island Of Death (1977)

Mindful of the profits being made by cheap exploitation films such as The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974), first time director Nico Mastorakis set out to make the most shocking film imaginable (and in the process turn a tidy profit). After completing a script in one week, he took a crew out to the Greek island of Mykonos and filmed a bizarre tale of a duo on a killing spree. The first hint that Celia (Jane Ryall) and her brother Christopher (Robert Behling) might not playing with a full deck comes when they enjoy a moment of passion inside a phone booth €“ during a call to their mother, no less. Claiming to be doing the Lord€™s work, they proceed to rid the island of its homosexuals, hippies and nymphomaniacs, dispatching each victim in a brutal and gory fashion. For reasons known only to the filmmakers, Christopher also enjoys a moment of passion with a goat, after which he slays the animal and returns to his holy quest. This scene comes out of leftfield, lasts a few moments, and then is never referred to ever again, making you question its importance to the narrative. Then again, in a movie where an incestuous couple kill in the name of God, questioning the logic of the narrative becomes a moot point.
