The Sex In The Original It Script Horrified The Young Actors' Parents

Fans of the Stephen King novel It probably think this entry is about the children's sewer orgy, a prominent scene in the book that was left out of the 2017 hit movie adaptation. (Non-readers may think that's a joke, but we assure you it's not.) But we're actually talking about a whole other bunch of sexual elements that almost made it into the movie -- s**t that is much creepier than the killer clown.

It's initial director, Cary Fukunaga (who directed one of the most incredible scenes ever shown on television), also wrote the first script. And while certain elements of his grand vision remain in the final film, there is a remarkable lack of full-on adolescent bestiality. Just try to watch It, and we bet a dollar that you won't find ONE INSTANCE of the bully character f*****g a sheep. That exact thing was in the Fukunaga's draft, along with the bully masturbating onto a birthday cake, as one does.

But that's not all. Fukunaga also wrote a scene wherein Beverly (played by a 15-year-old actress) has her panties slid off and her stomach kissed by her father, and yet another scene tasked Eddie with, Jesus, resisting temptation from an old rotting woman who pleasures herself in front of him. At this point, it sounds less like a horror movie and more like an edgy high-schooler trying to prove to his friends that he's cool enough to be in their band.

Show Dogs Had To Cut Out A Horrible Message About Sexual Abuse

Given that Show Dogs is essentially Miss Congeniality with a talking Rottweiler, the film was never going to change the world. The studio handed producers $5 million and tasked them with making something just inoffensive enough that it could babysit some kids for 90 minutes, maybe with a couple of grown-up jokes thrown in to make Mom or Dad smirk. Doesn't sound that hard, right?

But after the film hit theaters, parents took issue with a particular subplot involving the Rottweiler (voiced by the rapper Ludacris on the rare vacation that he takes from Fast & Furious sequels) getting checked out by judges before the big show. And by "checked out," we mean they fondle his balls until he becomes so uncomfortable that he mentally checks out. The dog emotionally detaches from the situation, using his imagination until the process is over, and he is then given a treat. In the film, this is seen as a positive (and hilarious) way to get through unwanted groping from strangers. "Just put it out of your mind until it's over, and you'll be rewarded."

Michael Bay Produced A Film That Used Actual Plane Crash Footage

Project Almanac is the horribly named 2015 time travel movie that you likely have already forgotten about, even if you saw it. It's about as cookie-cutter as you'd expect a low-budget sci-fi movie produced by Michael Bay to be, right on down to the use of recycled airplane crash stock footage. Of course, "stock" footage probably isn't technically what it should be called, because it's more like actual footage of people dying.

Like in every time travel movie ever made, the characters' attempts to change the past end in disaster for the present. Here, a basketball player breaks his leg as a result of an accident caused by a power surge, which itself was caused by his friends' time machine using a lot of energy to send a toy car back in time, obviously. Because the player breaks his leg, his team doesn't make it to the championship, and so the player's dad, a pilot, doesn't attend that game, and instead crashes a commercial airliner, killing everybody onboard. It's as if that relatively minor event caused some kind of Butterfly Effect.

The Predator Reboot Featured A Real-Life Sex Offender Creeping On A Woman

For a long time, The Predator sounded promising. Director Shane Black working with a script that was written by the dude who made The Monster Squad? It was a dream come true for everyone whose favorite movie genre is "late '80s." But then we heard about all the reshoots, and after that we heard about the movie being pretty mediocre. And between those, as the s**t in the middle of the Oreo, was the revelation that Shane Black had hired an honest-to-god registered sex offender to play ... a borderline sex offender.
