Films You Can't Watch Again

Mysterious Skin
Happiness (1998)
Requiem for a Dream
Breaking the Waves
Under the Skin
Dancer in the Dark
Dear Zachary (documentary)
Rabbit Proof Fence

All are very disturbing and depressing.
 
Seven Pounds

It affected me so much, I can't bring myself to watch it ever again
I saw this at the cinema.. all I did was cry. I can’t watch it again.
Like others have mentioned, green mile, Marley and me I can’t deal with emotional films.

Agree with @Wynonna about Mysterious Skin. It’s a really good film but I tried to watch it again a few years later after I first saw it and had to turn it off within ten minutes. That was about ten years ago, so I might try again soon
 
VVitch
Prisoners
Banshees of Innisherin
Mystic River
Django Unchained
Apocalypto
Pan's Labyrinth (watched this 2x - the second time was 15yrs after the first and I remembered why I had vowed not to watch it again)

I think there's already a thread of this topic somewhere.
Pan's Labyrinth for me too. It was not what I was expecting at all - I thought it was going to be like the other Labyrinth, or Dark Crystal 😂. I absolutely hated it and would never watch it again.
 
Apocalypto. The Color Purple is one of my favourite books and I cry every time I watch the movie.
Pay it forward, or anything I enjoyed with Kevin Spacey in. (Don't think I can ever watch a movie with him in again.)
My Octopus Teacher, I bawled like a baby. Can't bring myself to watch Hachiko, don't think my heart can take it.
 
Hachi a dogs tale-jeez I've never cried at a film as much as I did that one!😭😭😭😭

I've heard of this one. Not even daring to try it. I've always cried whilst watching movies even as a kid.

Right now it would be the pianist for me. The train scenes. I've watched a lot of war movies. That one always is the most disturbing and for a good reason.

Not a film but also the Indian show on Netflix called "Trial by fire" which was based on real life. The most graphic scenes of people burning in a cinema and the parents trying to get justice for over 20 years .

I cried a lot at the scene with the parents cutting a cake they had pre ordered for their son's birthday.

A star is Born (lady gaga/Bradley Walsh version). I bawled my eyes out after watching this, but even though I will never watch it ever again, it was brilliant.

I think you mean Bradley Cooper, but thank you so much for the mental image of Bradley Walsh starting in this film 😂😂 that made me laugh! ♥

For me, I can’t watch Grave of the Fireflies or Schindler’s List again. Absolutely broke my heart.
