I just finished watching Requiem For A Dream and needless to say I was blown away. It's refreshing to see a movie where the ending isn't always pretty. Can you guys recommend other good movies that are depressing and dark?
Thanks

The Deliverance
David Lynch's Blue Velvet and Wild at Heart
Easy Rider
Life is Beautiful
Trainspotting
There's more rolling around in my head, but I cannot recall the titles.

You might like it if you enjoy......waiting..............a really...................long .....................time.............for something............to........................... ...happen...........
And it never does.
Proof that having IFC in your cable package isn't always a good thing.
Oh yeah.... "Monster" is pretty depressing.
Pan's Labrynth I didn't find depressing. I enjoyed that one a lot. |
