|'''[[ACDC]]'''}}
Extreme and sadistic violence, to the point of prurience. A [[Portmanteau]] of "gore" and "porn". The term can refer to just an extremely graphic scene of bloodshed, or the entire sub-genre of torture films in the spirit of ''[[Saw]]''.
Line 15 ⟶ 16:
The environment version of this trope is [[Scenery Gorn]].
Compare [[Bloodier and Gorier]], [[Bloody Hilarious]], [[Ludicrous Gibs]], [[Exploitation Film]], and [[Torture Porn]]. Contrast [[Gory Discretion Shot]], where the work makes a point of ''not'' showing you the really gruesome stuff. [[Snuff Film]]s, if they existed in Real Life, would be Gorn turned [[Up to Eleven]].
Not to be confused with the ''[[Star Trek]]'' reptilian alien race the [[wikipedia:Gorn|Gorn Hegemony]], or the ''[[Monty Python's Flying Circus]]'' [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-gwXJsWHupg sketch].
