This song was recorded in 1955, today it is considered as one of the best songs ever

First recorded in 1955, Unchained Melody has become an enduring classic, celebrated today as one of the greatest songs of all time. Certain tunes transcend generations, and this one is no exception. Originally written for the film Unchained, the song’s narrative follows a prisoner torn between finishing his sentence or escaping to reunite with his family.

The haunting melody by Alex North and evocative lyrics by Hy Zaret have made Unchained Melody one of the most recorded songs of the 20th century, with The Righteous Brothers’ rendition being especially memorable. The song saw a powerful resurgence in 1990 with its inclusion in the film Ghost, where the unforgettable pottery scene featuring Patrick Swayze and Demi Moore solidified its place in pop culture history.

A horror movie is so gross and disturbing that it’s been banned in more than 40 countries. In fact, someone even got arrested for showing it!

Warning: The content of this piece may upset some readers.

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.
