      Agreed lol. Finally had the heart to watch it last weekend (after having known it was by A24 films). Suffice it to say, it fucked me up at different parts of the film. Amazing juxtaposition between cult/psychological horror and colorful, vibrant scenery. Great film, but probably won’t watch it again.

      Have heard a lot about Hereditary too, but not sure if I have enough courage to watch yet.

    Kids

    Very good, but very fucked up. Hit close to home in the lifestyle I lived as a teenager, just luck that things didn’t end up like they did in the movie.

      I downloaded this one to watch on a long plane ride recently and I guess I forgot what all was involved with it. It did not play for more than the intro credits before I was fumbling to close the app.

    This may be a basic film-bro™ answer, but Oldboy is a good baseline for “kinda fucked up” but also “really really good”. It’s even better on the second viewing. I even recommend watching Spike Lee’s misguided remake, because it makes you seriously appreciate the artistry behind what Park Chan-Wook was doing.

    I don’t watch a crazy amount of movies but I loved The Platform (2019). It’s a horror movie and and a revolting, elegant metaphor for class inequality.

      Another movie that essentially tells the same story in a different setting is Snowpiercer. Both movies are great imo.

      Yea there’s something to this movie, even though it’s kinda b-grade sci-fi horror. The idea and its presentation has something can get under your skin … including “that scene” (if you know you know).

      I watched it as fairly young kid, at home alone, with most lights off (never being really bothered by horror), and no horror movie has troubled me more than that as I fell asleep thinking about if “that place” actually exists.

        The movie has an interesting story about how so much was cut or couldn’t even be filmed and the editing ended up all over the place, the movie ist barely coherent at times. But the feeling I got just thinking about that place was captivating nonetheless, great movie. Captures the vastness and loneliness of space well imo

    Hardcore Henry.

    It’s an easy answer. It’s a very pulpy, violent, action film shot entirely in a real time first person vantage. A guy gets experimented on, escapes from the mad scientist, then goes on a 90 min video game quest to save his kidnapped wife. It’s all explosions and train fights. It’s the kind of thing you worry that people will respect you less for having enjoyed, but it’s honestly an outstanding use of cinema and very fun.

      One of my favorite movies of all time just because of the psychological horror aspect

    “A Serbian Film”

    Young and dumb I watched a movie suggested by 4chan, I still have flashbacks over 10 years later of 1 scene from the movie.

    “Plague dogs” is the most depressing movie I have ever seen, I was in a funk for a few weeks after seeing it. In terms of conveying an emotion no other film has lived up to that movie for me.

    I don’t recommend it.

    The Skin I Live in 2011 (Antonio Banderas)

    The brief synopsis below gives nothing away about how this film is so messed up.

    A brilliant plastic surgeon, haunted by past tragedies, creates a type of synthetic skin that withstands any kind of damage. His guinea pig: a mysterious and volatile woman who holds the key to his obsession.

    Sorry to Bother You 2018

    I defy anyone to guess where that movie is heading.

      Man I watched “Sorry to bother you” with spoilers, but still was not able to guess those parts. Awesome film!
