What movie or movies do you wish you'd never seen? [I Am Just Curious]

Have you ever seen a movie so horrible,or so violent, that you really wish you'd never seen it? I don't just mean a movie you didn't like, but one that mentally scarred you for life.

I would nominate two from my own experience. (Maybe I should mention that I'm a real genuine sissy about blood, gore and violence):
Starship Troopers
(Those bugs were just too much for me).
Seven
(Too much gore and evil people, too close to reality for me).

No, I've seen a few horrifying movies but I don't regret watching any of them. They are a reminder of how gruesome people are. It's not bad to have that fact in mind.

@CrazyMusicLover You are right
Maybe we all need a reminder now and then.

@CrazyMusicLover I don't have too many regrets about the movies I've seen either. The things that get to me are real life horrors - the news, and things that have happened to me and people I know.

@SW-User Some movies get to me just like real events because most of those I had in mind were based on real events. Despite that I end up horrified or nauseated I see it as educational material about reality that is important to acknowledge. But it's true that I don't search for such movies deliberately. I even read synopsis to decide if I want to watch a particular movie at all these days.

@CrazyMusicLover Good idea. I've been a horror film fan since as far back as I can remember, but I prefer the classics which have less gore and violence. I do watch new movies fairly regularly but I check the reviews first so I don't waste too much time on dreck.

So far, none of the movies I've seen have given me nightmares, but some things I've seen over the years in the news were just unforgettable.
