Need help creating this IMDb poll. I'm looking for scenes I can add to the following IMDb poll on the worst bathrooms in movie history or scenes where ... bad things happen in restrooms, lavatories, etc.... A brief and pithy description would be awesome to boot. Keep in mind that the IMDb poll system has a maximum of 35 options.

Which of these bathrooms, WC's, restrooms, lavatory, or washroom would haunt your nightmares if you found yourself desperate to use them when nature really is calling!

So far, the movies I referenced:
At the World's End (2013)
Slumdog Millionaire (2008)
Trainspotting (1996)
Pulp Fiction (1994)
Jurassic Park (1993)
Candyman (1992)
Silence of the Lambs (1991)
The Godfather (1972)
Psycho (1960)

@tsarstepan,

Good idea for a question. I'm no help, not my genre of movies in general, but there must have been some ordinary visually bad ones in movies I've seen. Will cogitate.

@tsarstepan,

How could you leave out "Saw"?

Joe's Apartment.

I never watched the movie, as I almost vomited at the first scene.

Couldn't even watch it here beyond determining it was the correct video.

Why have a poll? Trainspotting wins. No contest.

The bathrooms in The Shining weren't bad. They just had bad things happen in them.

And, of course, the creepy lady in the bathtub (pic NSFW)

Saw doesn't make the cut, huh?

@chai2,

I don't know. Also, the problem is IMDb's image galleries for each movie royally stinks. We can't upload images straight from Google like here at a2k. And for a poll like this, their search engine doesn't really help.

Care to summarize the appropriate bathroom scene in Saw. I seen it but can't remember much. I guess a rewatch would be enjoyed but I have to find a copy first.

@tsarstepan,

The entire movie takes place in the bathroom (well, the vast bulk of it)

It's where the guy wakes up, dead body bled out on floor, handcuffed to toilet, etc etc etc.

There is in fact a good image for Saw in the IMDb gallery. I'll add it now and contemplate a good blurb regarding being chained up to a pipe on the wall style line to the image later. Once again, donkey shane Lady Chai! Cool

@Frank Apisa,

I did add that already. One of the rare moments that IMDb actually had a decent RELEVANT screen shot of the film. It's the iconic image of Vincent D'Onofrio in his t-shirt and boxers while his sitting on the toilet and maniacally smiling that off the rocker smile.

@tsarstepan,

Not sure if this fits - but a great bathroom scene - One who flew over the cuckoo's nest when joe throws the sink outta the window. I don't have a picture, but I loved that movie and ending.

And what could be worse than this?

@Linkat,

I couldn't use that particular image you provided as IMDb has a goofy policy that forces the users to use one from their own empty drecks of the IMDb gallery image page from said film.

Went with this one:

Thanks for the nomination Linkat.

Scored an image for One Flew Over the Cukoo's Nest:

You find it difficult to concentrate on what you need to do when you find the institution's restroom in which you are using is in the process of receiving an unscheduled makeover by one of its unstable residents.

It's not a movie...it is a TV series (a pretty good one at that), but the opening credits all have a bathroom as a setting...and it gets rather gross. Probably as gross as any movie bathroom scenes mentioned.

Showtime's...Shameless.

@Frank Apisa,

In the 1950s, a lot of things were a lot less gross; more freedom.

Ask some of your black friends down there in Florida about "more freedom" in the 1950's, David.
