Most people enjoy getting a little scared by a horror movie every once in a while, right? The kind that’s packed with blood, guts, and surprise moments that you can’t forget.
But do you think you could handle the most talked-about horror movie out there? This one is on another level.
We’re not talking about something like Sydney Sweeney’s Immaculate, which might cause a little buzz because of its satanic themes.
We’re talking about a horror movie so extreme that it’s been banned in over 40 countries. Yes, seriously!
It even got a film festival director in trouble, and he was arrested for showing it.
The movie we’re talking about? A Serbian Film. And believe me, I’m not exaggerating with how intense it is.
The story follows Milos, a retired Serbian porn star, who gets an offer to star in one last movie for a lot of money.
But soon, he finds himself stuck in a horrifying snuff film, filled with such disturbing sexual scenes and violence that some of it is too shocking to even explain.
When the director, Srđan Spasojević, was interviewed by Indiewire about what inspired the film, he said: “We wanted to show our true feelings about our region and the world. On the surface, everything seems polite and politically correct, but underneath, it’s really messed up.”
Released in 2010, the movie caused a huge controversy.
To be shown in any country, major cuts had to be made just to get a rating.
In the US, about a minute was cut to get an NC-17 rating.
In the UK, they had to cut a massive three minutes and 48 seconds from 11 different scenes just to show it in theaters.
In 2011, a bold film festival director, Angel Sala, got into trouble and was charged with “exhibiting child pornography” after a Roman Catholic group complained about a screening of the movie.
Although the charges were dropped, Sala could have faced a year in prison if things had gone differently.
Out of the 46+ countries that have banned the film, big ones like Spain, Australia, and Malaysia won’t allow it to be shown at all.
Critics are divided on A Serbian Film. Some admire the director’s vision, while others call it “disgusting.”
Film critic Mark Kermode said, “The director claims it’s symbolic, but if that’s true, the message gets lost in the ridiculous gore.”
“The most frustrating part is that regular torture porn is bad enough, but when it tries to be deep and artsy, it’s even worse.”
If you’re still thinking, “Hmm, I might give it a try,” a top review on IMDB might change your mind. It says: “I heard about this movie on YouTube, someone said don’t watch it, it’s made to disturb you. But I didn’t listen, and now I feel like throwing up. Please don’t watch this, just don’t, I’m literally crying right now.”
After reading that, I’m thinking I’ll take their advice.
If you’re in the US and still curious, A Serbian Film is available on Vudu.
But honestly? I’d skip it. Seriously.

One risk factor for heart disease is triglycerides. As you can see, triglycerides are created when you eat fat that is not immediately needed. Your blood and fat cells contain them. Fatty acids found in omega-3-enriched eggs lower blood triglycerides. However, take note that the eggs are enhanced with omega-3, or from pasture-fed chicken.
Eggs can reduce the risk of breast cancer, according to a Harvard University study. When eggs were consumed during adolescence, this was most advantageous. A subsequent study, however, revealed that women who ate at least six eggs per week had a 44% lower risk of breast cancer than those who ate fewer. Eggs include choline, which also lowers the risk of breast cancer.
125.5 mg of choline, or almost ¼ of your daily requirement, are found in an egg. In addition to being vital for the brain, choline is helpful for the heart. Choline aids in mood and memory regulation. Research has demonstrated that it supports cognitive processes like verbal and visual memory. Choline helps to create the membranes that envelop your cells. Choline is also necessary for the development of the baby’s brain throughout pregnancy and lactation.
Eggs are a rich source of minerals including iron, zinc, and phosphorus, which are essential for a healthy body. Zinc converts food into energy and supports a healthy immune system. Women need a lot of iron because of menstruation, but it’s necessary for many other purposes. Eggs are also a good source of selenium and iodine, which are needed to produce thyroid hormones.
