I'd rather not see


The Act of Seeing with One's Own Eyes (1971)

Directed by Stan Brakhage this is somewhere between a documentary and an experimental film. We see extended sequences of autopsies on people.

This is one of the few films I have actually turned off rather than watch all the way through. The content seems to be shocking and gory just for the sake of it. There is no plot, just an ongoing parade of images.

2/5
