The movie contains many sex scenes, and though these are simulated (obviously, seeing as the actors are not of age), it remains that they are troubling enough in their own right, as we see the teenagers of the film slip into seedy, sadistic sex, even at one point indulging in autoerotic asphyxiation in this bleak collection of strands and sub-plots (the one instance of unsimulated sex that makes the film eligible for inclusion on this list involves male masturbation).
Like Clark's and Korine's work before it (especially Kids, which is one of the darkest films ever made), it is deeply disturbing. Ken Park Back towards the rawer end of things, Ken Park, from directors Larry Clark (whose Kids and Bully were equally troubling) and Ed Lachman (the great cinematographer, here getting his only real significant directing credit to date) - and written by Clark and Harmony Korine (who wrote Kids and more recently directed Springbreakers) - tells the story of several underage Californian skateboarders who seek out sex in a fight against their dysfunctional, destructive home lives.
