The toilet has always been something to be ashamed of, causing embarrassment or disgust, so it has always been censored, especially in movies. Not everybody knows that the first time a toilet appeared in a movie is in Psycho by Alfred Hitchcock in which the protagonist tears up some notes, throws them into the toilet, and then flushes them. Hitchcock purposely placed the toilet in a crux so that he wouldn’t be able to delete the scene.
Later, over the years, the toilet has appeared in every movie genre. Here, we listed 20 different movies where most of the toilet scenes have no limits, sometimes they’re funny, others weird, or disgusting but sometimes remained in history.

Here the protagonist of the toilet scene is Finch (one of the five guys) who is afraid of using public toilets but this time he can’t hold it in because Stifler put some laxative in his coffee, so he cannot fail to use the school restroom but distractedly he wound up in the girl restroom.
