British actor Tim Roth was left so disturbed by his experience on horror movie Funny Games U.S., he has pledged never to watch the film.

The Reservoir Dogs star plays a father who is forced to watch his wife and two young sons fight for their lives after they are taken hostage.

Roth insists the role drew too many similarities to his own life - as he is married with two boys.

He says, "I'll never see that movie. It damaged me.

"That was one of the hardest things I've done as an actor. And as a parent - the boy bears a strong resemblance to one of my own children."

Roth also has a 24-year-old son from a previous relationship. (CAM/EMEN/TN)
