Strangely enough, the most horrifying moment for me was when Katniss described the schedules that get printed on everyone's arms, and did not think it was anything but an annoyance. To find the best hope for salvation is a society so controlling as to forcibly ink the citizens just really hit me hard. But at the same time, it was a good kind of horrifying, when I realized that the "good" guys weren't going to be the traditional perfect saviors.
I know it's a bit weird, just a tiny detail when compared to everything else, but I was prepared for the horrifying deaths and fighting. I wasn't prepared for the white knights to be "kind of muddy grey" knights.
