Awkward Family Photos honor The Brothers Grimsby with fighting siblings -

Pairs of brothers are shamelessly sharing their most embarrassing pictures with their siblings - including snaps of themselves posing crotch to crotch and strangling each other - as part of a new photo gallery.

Awkward Family Photos is asking brothers across the country to share the most uncomfortable and perplexing pictures that they have taken with their siblings in celebration of the upcoming Sacha Baron Cohen film The Brothers Grimsby, which hits theaters on March 11.

'We're shining a light on all the special moments of brotherhood including the face claws, the wedgies, and those times when we look at our siblings and wonder how exactly are we related again?' the site explains.

Uncomfortable pose: A man named Rick (left) shared this mortifying photo of him with his older brother in 1979 when they were four and seven as part of Awkward Family Photos' new gallery series

Vampire-inspired: Joel, who is pictured in the box when he was a child, said his older brother (right) was thrilled that he fit in the coffin-shaped box that his firetruck came in

Paul (left) joked that he and his little brother (right) will not be re-creating this photo of them from 1966 any time soon

One of the post bizarre photos sees a little boy lying in a long, narrow box held by his father as his older brother grins from ear to ear.

'My dad bought my brother a hook and ladder fire truck for his birthday. He was a little disappointed that the fire truck went un-played,' Joel recalled. 'My brother, however, was quite happy to find out that I fit perfectly inside the toddler coffin sized box. Good times…'

Another pair of brothers admitted that their incredibly awkward family photo, which sees them on their knees with their bodies facing each other as they smile for the camera.

To make the picture even more embarrassing, the brothers, who are as close as can be, are wearing coordinating plaid pants and matching polo shirts.

Umm? Chris and his twin brother were tied to a porch surrounded by toys when they were toddlers to prevent them from walking in the concrete they were pouring out back

Scary moment: Brian shared this photo of his older brother trying to spear him with the 'base of a swing ball set'

Happy holidays! 'These are my three boys while trying to get family pictures taken for our Christmas cards,' a mother named Jen explained. 'We did use this on the Christmas card anyway'

'This is a photo of me and my brother taken in 1979. I was four and my brother is seven,' Rick wrote of the snapshot. 'This photo is a running joke in our household and hopefully everyone else's.'

A man named Paul shared a similar photo of him with his little brother straddling him him as he sits in a large wooden chair.

'This is of me and my little bother, probably 1966 or so,' he wrote, noting: 'We're not planning a then and now re-creation.'

One of the most hilarious photos out of the bunch probably would fly today - as it sees two toddlers tied to the side of the porch

'My twin brother and I, tied to our side porch by my father and grandfather to prevent us from walking in the concrete they were pouring out back,' Chris wrote. 'In his defense, he did leave us a box of toys and a sweet pair of boots within rope's length.

Worth the money? 'These are my sons in their first formal studio appearance together. Always check the refund policy before you pay the studio,' dad Robert said of this hilarious snap

Merry Christmas! A woman named Tracy submitted this image, revealing that it depicts her sons on Christmas morning after she asked the two older siblings to give their little brother a hug

Very bizarre! This image, submitted by someone named Taylor, sees two brothers perched in a giant golden egg together, although it's not clear what exactly the reasoning behind the picture pose was

Open up! According to submitter Alan, this is what happens when you ask one son to feed the other when his mom and dad are both busy

'Mom and grandma were not pleased upon their return,' he added.

Another equally strange picture shared by a man named Brian sees him running away from his older brother - who looks like he is about to spear him with a wooden pole.

'My big brother chasing me around the garden with the base of a swing ball set,' he captioned the potentially disastrous moment.

From strangling to biting, subtle violence is a running theme is many of the photos that are shared in the gallery.

In one photo, the youngest boy out of a trio of brothers was photographed apparently biting his screaming sibling's side.

Paying tribute: The photo series celebrates Sacha Baron Cohen's new film The Brothers Grimsby, which hits theaters on March 11

Someone is thrilled to be here: 'My brother and me, circa 1999. I was about 13 here and my enthusiasm was barely contained, as is quite obvious by my expression,' Davon said of this image

Three is the magic number! Although this trio may have had the best intentions when they decided to take this snap in their finest ensembles, the end result is not the most flattering for any of them

Smile! Or not... 'One of many shots from our worst portrait sitting ever! The shoots only got more stressful when their little brother was born!' mother Nancy said of this very uncomfortable-looking image

Showing off what they've got: Despite being part of the same family, these two siblings couldn't look more different - and clearly have very different fashion favorites too

A lot going on: From the bizarre hairstyles to the excellent expressions, what's not to love about this trio?

What's up? It looks like something very distressing took place just before this snap was taken, enough to make one brother cry, while the other turned away from the camera altogether

Yum yum! Someone obviously needed a tasty snack during this photoshoot, and could find nothing better to much on than his own brother's head

Give us a a grin! Neither brother looks very happy to be appearing in this photo, with both men struggling to rustle up as much as a smirk

To each their own! The three brothers in this picture decided that striking unique poses would be far better than something more uniform - the same logic that went into their fashion choices, clearly

Playing hide and seek? This young boy clearly didn't feel it was necessary to have his sibling's face in their family photo

Snazzy outfits: No doubt keen to impress in their family photo, these two brothers dressed up in some very over-the-top - and very questionable - ensembles

Lovely weather: Despite their best attempts, these three siblings really struggled to pose up properly while standing in a snowstorm

Falling out: It's not clear what happened to make this little boy so unhappy about taking a picture with his brothers - perhaps the Easter bunny wasn't as kind to him as he was to his siblings?

Someone looks happy! This image sees two older brothers playing a very mean prank on their stunning younger sibling
