Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.
The character Zalachenko ("Zala") with the burns inflicted by Lisbeth as a child; the make-up of the burns to his ear is severe Nightmare Fuel and can stay in your mind for days. Not to mention the beating-up part too.
The original Swedish movie, some very detailed rape scenes. The scenes in the American film are hardly any more delicate.
From the several hour long anal rape part, to what Martin Vanger actually did to his victims, to what happens to Lisbeth in the end of the second book... Creepy stuff.
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo:[]
All the faux-religious murders and the recurring sexual abuse scenes. Then when Mikael discovers the full extent of Martin the killer's evil. The images of the girl victims, their skin gray and huge bug-eyes staring in terror, will stay with you.
