I know there was one but I can't remember it probably because I blocked it out to prevent further damage

I can't think of many specific levels, but the dream sequences in Max Payne where you had to like jump across lines of blood drove me crazy

The last level of Ninja Gaiden is hellish. Everything after Red Malth just knocks your ass into a pit and then you have to fight three bosses in a row, one of which is super super hard.

Recently it would have to be the Killer Croc part of Batman AA. It was just so damn ponderous compared to the rest of the game.

The rain miracle stage in Patapon. So infuriating and frustrating that I could not finish the game.

labyrinth zone, Sonic 1. 
even now i cant stand it. the blocky design, the fire breathing heads, the spears, and the annoying yet completely terrifying "YOURE GONNA DROWN" song every Sonic fan has nightmares about happening every 30 seconds.

Recently it would have to be those arcade levels in Banjo 3, besides them being extremely annoying, the fact that they build in these fake crashes annoys me even more.

Another would be The Silo in Call of Duty 2 on Veteran mode on the Xbox 360. How that achievement can be common here is beyond me and I know for sure many people had a hard time getting it.

The game is fucking broken on the highest difficulty. And this stage goes out of its goddamn way to prove that.

Does anyone remember the level in Crash Bandicoot 1, Slippery Climb? To get the gem you had to finish the level without dying... AHRG. The first game I used cheats in without feeling bad about it later.

@Meptron: I don't mean to piss you off, really I don't, but when I rented the game I was able to do it in one shot (literally) as the car was driving away. I didn't even know I was supposed to do that because it was in French, and the dubs are terrible and impossible to understand.

Yeah, the bunker stage in CoD4 on veteran is definitely one of the more frustrating levels of a game that I've played recently.

Final Boss Fight "Devil Went Down to Georgia" - Guitar Hero 3 (expert)
 
There are a few songs that I can't do on expert such as Through the Fire and Flames. But that song is a bonus, not something that is essential to completing the game.  But "Devil Went Down to Georgia" was necessary to beat the career (game) and it took me weeks to finally beat it. I even got a screencap of it.

Meat Circus is defintiely up there, but it didn't ruin the game. I had real trouble with God of War II just before you fight Clotho/Clothos, there's a series of fights down a spiral where you fight groups of practically every enemy in the game. One mistimed counter against a gorgon's petrifying stare and you're sent back 15 mins to the last save (no checkpoint nearby) and that's only half way down. Not to mention all the annoying prompts such as: 
REMEMBER WHEN YOU HAMMERED CIRCLE TO OPEN THE PREVIOUS 200 THINGS? YES YOU DO? WELL TO OPEN THIS THING YOU NEED TO HAMMER THE CIRCLE BUTTON  

I know GOW III looks impressive but as a man once said "Fool me once Santa Monica Studio, shame on... shame on you. Fool me... you can't get fooled again. "
