Definitley not a favorite scene, but a shockingly memorable one for its time:
There was an American network made-for-TV movie in the US called The Rape of Richard Beck back in the mid-80's. This was at a time when you never were allowed to see anything remotely controversial on free TV; and how the violent anal rape of a police officer by criminal thugs made it to prime time family viewing hours is still beyond me. It was bit of Deliverance, but on a TV channel whose advertising slogan at the time was something like "Fun for the whole family!"
This was long before pay/cable TV networks created their own content, and only a small handful of free TV channels were available. Compared to what type of content you can get on streaming channels these days, this movie would be considered mild and innocent. (Assuming there exists a mild and innocent view of anal rape of men.)
