Actually my own theory is the Crouch Jr. did it to upset Neville.  
Remember that  Crouch Jr. went to prison because of what he did to 
Neville's parents.  And if the memory charm theory is true, and 
Neville did witness it, it maybe possible that somehow Neville helped 
get Crouch convicted.   So as a little payback, he used the DADA 
class to show Neville what his parents went through that Neville may 
have forgoten.

As to the imperius curse, I've never understood why Crouch Jr. did 
that except maybe he was testing their mettle, see how they would 
stand up against it, in case he needed to imperius anyone.
