                Up.
                Such an unexpected sad scene to start off what I thought was a fun movie.

                        Eureka
                        (1983). Spoiler alert:
                        Gene Hackman's character encounters some strange guy who proceeds to blow his brains out with a revolver.

                            Saving Private Ryan. I'd always heard it was a difficult movie to watch, but goddamn. I wasn't expecting an opening quite so brutal.

                                didn't waste any time getting to the shock value in the opening sequence.

                                  I can only think of
                                  Jaws
                                  .
                                  To this day, I fast forward to the next scene after she gets in the water.
                                  And This, Too, Shall Pass Away

                                    That explosion right at the beginning actually made me jump (talk about starting things off with a bang).

                                      For me it is the opening scene oof the original Halloween. Today, a brother killing his sister is not all that unusual, especially if you are a liberal, but when I first watched it as a kid, it was unthinkable. Thanks to liberals, we have progressed as a nation.
