Realism in Horror Films...

As far as the most realistic horror film you've ever seen, realistic deaths, realistic human nature, etc...

Agreed, as far as it being at that level of gruesome...

Well, maybe "In the Mouth of Madness", in the realm of insanity?

28 Days Later was very realistic and believable... Umm.... Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer is incredibly real.

I think the most realistic and disturbing horror film I've seen is Irreversible. Everything in that movie is so real it's scary.

The new Dawn of the Dead film was going for strict realism as far as mainstream society and what some would do for self preservation and there were a few slip up's where the audience proclaimed that a person wouldn't do this or that, but for instance in the new Dead film during the opening when her boyfriend turns and she runs into the bathroom and falls backwards and crashes through the shower door that hit home because if any of you have felt adrenaline and are running in fear those kind of thing happens, your clumsy and hurt yourself, but move extremely fast and don't feel the pain during the moment...

I can't decide. Toss up between Critters 4 and Troll. Both extremely realistic. I mean, who didn't have demon troll puppets living in a unit in their apartment complex? I believe everyone has.
wink

"Realistic deaths"
I don't know much about that, and what I do know, even the most realistically portrayed, is probably not that realistic, which is probably a good thing.

"Realistic human nature"
That probably would be "Lair of the White Worm."

Lord James D'Ampton (Hugh Grant)
The Brits I have watched the film with, say that is fairly realistic portrayal of a certain type of British lord, though the character is often exaggerated for comedic effect.

Mary Trent (Sammi Davis) "The worrier"
Her worries for her sister, Eve, seem fairly realistic, as does her response when she sees her mother, who has been missing for a year.

Peters (Stratford Johns) The butler"
As a typical long-time servitor of a mostly absentee lord. Peters knows who is the true lord of the manor, and it is not Lord James.

P. C. Erny (Paul Brooke) "The kowtower"
Typically servile, when confronted by an upper class lord or lady.

Gladwell (Gina McKee) "The nurse"
Confuses the snake antidote with the arthritis medicine. As if that has never happened before.

Kevin (Chris Pitt) "Toyboy"
The boy scout in the film, who when picked up by a beautiful well-to-do woman and taken to her home, is in seventh heaven, as he thinks she
wants him as her boy toy, at least for the night. But, when he discovers what she really wants from him, and it is not sex, it is too late.

I won't talk about the other characters in the film, Eve Trent (Catherine Oxenberg), Angus Flint (Peter Capaldi), Dorothy Trent (Imogen Claire), and Joe Trent (Christopher Gable), except for Lady Sylvia Marsh (Amanda Donohoe), who is probably the most unrealistic character in the film. As if, there were a lot of immortals going around with vampiric tendencies, and who could sprout snake fangs.

I know less about 18th century France, then I do about 20th century England, but, "Brotherhood of the Wolf," always struck me as being fairly realistic. Maybe because it was shot in an area of France, where most of the buildings actually seem to date from the 18th century.
