This is heinous

Okay this morning I was scrolling down the newsfeed on facebook before my eye got caught by Sean's status:

"downloading the most fucked up movie of all time (apprantly)
/scared :\"

I had a period where I loved ghost and thriller films. I liked them because I was mature enough to know that the ghosts weren't real, and the directors of these films weren't original enough to deviate from the basic framework of movies in this genre. I just watched them because they were, indeed, "thrilling" to watch.

It would be something like.. a guy gets killed in the introduction, there are scenes with fake climaxes (something scary happens but it turns out to be someone joking), people don't believe the first person who figures there's something weird going on, the cocky guy of the group is the next to go, along with some other unsuspecting and naive characters, and eventually everything comes out in the open and either the main characters survive or they die. Yeyeyeye.

When I read Sean's status I was thinking, "pfft. I'm 17. I've seen so many horror films and heard of many depraved stories in the papers -- nothing can top the cake. Nothing else can freak me out afresh." So I wikied the plot synopsis.

The movie being mentioned on facebook was "A Serbian Film". I kid you not, even just reading it on wiki... well, let's just say that "most fucked up movie of all time" was exactly what I was thinking after I read it.

PLEASE! Do not read it if you're faint-hearted or would rather stay away from the disgusting ideas this movie encompasses. I can't stop anyone from being curious (like I was).. but I did give out a warning. Now you know, and now you can do whatever you want.

Why in God's name would anyone think up of a plot like this? I genuinely am asking that. I read it in the morning and throughout the whole day I kept getting creeped out by it. Yeah, call me weak and a typical squealing girl. But this movie disturbs me so much because it involves no supernatural forces, just satanic acts. Foul and heinous crimes against humanity. With ghost films at least I know it's (probably) not real. But with this stupid excuse for a film it makes me wonder if any of this shit happens out there. It defies humanity to the core and showcases the worst that could ever be found in humans. I'm even questioning the making of this film and it's legality.

I don't want to keep thinking about it. I really do feel traumatised by it.. and I don't use that adjective lightly. I wish I could forget it. Eughhhh.. I'll probably re-read this tomorrow and realise I'm overreacting. But.... eughhhhhhhhh..

If knowledge is power and ignorance is akin to stupidity, then right now I want to be the stupidest and most powerless girl alive.
