Mind Rape/Film

Psychic Assaults

 * Hero on villain example: In The Crow, Eric Draven can experience the sensations and memories of others through touch. When he picks up from Officer Albrecht what his fiancee Shelly went through before she died (thirty hours of surgery and intensive care), he's staggered by it all -- though he recovers, as he's already undead and probably quite insane from a certain point of view. He also demonstrates another ability -- to transfer the things he knows through touch, which he uses to full retributive effect on the final target of his Roaring Rampage of Revenge, Big Bad Top Dollar, whose orders were responsible for Shelly getting raped and beaten to death, and Eric himself being gunned down. Top Dollar, who while evil is quite alive and mostly sane, proves to be unable to stand "thirty hours of pain," all in one shot...
 * In Star Trek VI the Undiscovered Country, of all places, Spock's mind-meld with Valeris definitely comes close to this trope, and it's really uncomfortable to watch. The only saving grace being that it is made obvious Spock is almost equally affected by his actions;self inflicted Mind Rape, anyone?
 * The Novelization, recognizing the implications of Spock's act, first explicitly declares a forced mind meld to fall into this category and then explains that Spock didn't force her, he mentally convinced her the seriousness of the situation and she gave in willingly. Which, uh, doesn't explain the screaming at the end.
 * Star Trek First Contact (1996): Captain Picard's transformation into Locutus of Borg from the episode The Best of Both Worlds seems to have left him with violent nightmares, paranoia, isolation and depression. His mercy killing towards a potential Borg victim and his own desire for a Roaring Rampage of Revenge against their species imply this. His conversation with the Borg Queen pretty much confirms it.
 * In Star Trek Nemesis (2002), Deanna Troi is literally mind raped by the villain who invades her mind when she and Riker are about to do the business. That wasn't the first time this happened to poor Troi. One episode of TNG features an alien passenger aboard the Enterprise mind raping the crew in the figurative sense, but he mindrapes Troi in the literal sense, and fairly graphically. The act is even flat out referred to as "a form of rape" at one point, in case anyone didn't quite get the implications..
 * Samara Morgan from The Ring has a history of Mind Rape, though not always intentional. Her biological mother tried to She caused her adoptive mother terrifying visions for years and was forced to live in a barn,  Fast forward to her killing years, where she apparently Mind Rapes her victims enough to literally scare them to death. Any witnesses get enough second-hand Mind Rape to end up as blank-staring mental patients. Lastly, the scene from The Ring twO, where Samara  mind-rapes (or perhaps mind-tricks) a doctor into suicide. Oh, and her video's pretty fucked up, too.
 * Repeatedly happens in Scanners. The movie starts with the hero accidentally doing this to somebody.
 * Event Horizon was full of mind rape of the rescue crew by the hellish entities that came from another dimension - which is worse than what most of you would imagine as "Hell" - via their deepest guilt, and causing several members of the crew to go insane, with one of them ripping out his eyes, mutilating himself and vivisecting a crewmate. Another one of the crewmembers who accidentally fell into the portal and was pulled back out after a moment went temporarily insane and tried to throw himself out of an airlock, telling the rest of the crew that "if you had seen what I've seen, you wouldn't try to stop me."
 * In The Lawnmower Man, there are two instances of mind rape by the protagonist/villain, Jobe. One is when he takes his girlfriend Marie into Cyberspace and they try to make love; he loses control of his powers and ends up accidentally mind-raping her instead, leaving her catatonic. The second time is when Jobe, who's now both more in control of his growing powers and becoming more villainous, psychically unleashes a "Lawnmower Man" inside the head of a bully, purposely rendering him catatonic as well.
 * Jake does this to Rango upon meeting him causing him to go on a quest to find himself.
 * In X Men First Class Emma Frost uses her telepathy to bring out Erik's memories of being tortured by Sebastian Shaw as a child in Auschwitz.
 * In X 2 X Men United, the backstory of Col. Stryker involves his telepathic son, Jason, mind-raping him and his wife with hallucinations so horrific that the wife took a power drill to her temple to get the images out.
 * In Push, Cassie lures her Evil Counterpart, the Triad Watcher, into getting sneak attacked by a Wiper, who wipes out her entire memory of her family and knocks her unconscious. And Cassie is supposed to be one of the heroes.
 * Really any of the "Pushers" in this movie could qualify, consider how many peoples' memories they rewrite or how the actions they force people to do directly. Kira, to escape a team of Division agents pushes one to think he has a brother that the other killed. The agent sees his partner brutally murder his "brother" and shoots his partner dead. Even after he realized he was pushed, he still remembered growing up together with his brother and still felt the grief and shock of his death.
 * In The Avengers, Loki uses his staff to mind control . Later, when   discusses this experience, his description has heavy shades of this.
 * Loki also does a variation of this to the Black Widow when she attempted to interrogate him. He somehow was able to see her past and taunted her about trying to atone for all of her past crimes, capping it off with threatening to have  torture her to death before releasing him from the mind control to realize what he'd done before killing him as well.

"Mundane" Torture

 * Of all the Joker's countless acts of villainy in The Dark Knight Saga, arguably among the most sickening is his Mind Rape of . The twisted Monster Clown.
 * In The Silence of the Lambs, Dr. Hannibal Lecter causes a fellow inmate to kill himself through sheer force of personality.
 * Long before him, in German cinema, Dr. Mabuse did the same thing. To his own patient.
 * The plot of A Clockwork Orange is nicely summed up by this trope.
 * Pink Floyd's The Wall is definitely a mind rape on the audience.
