18 Films You’ll Never Watch Again
9. The Elephant Man
Lynch, King of the films that you never intend to watch again, excelled himself here with The Elephant Man. Telling the true-ish story of John Merrick, played by British thesp John Hurt, a grotesquely deformed man with a heart of gold, it’s hard not to walk away from this film despairing at the plight of humanity. A film that’s just too depressing to give another go, despite amazing performances and brilliantly strange-looking prosthetics.
