In The Mood For Love will tear your heart out

 

[Fj0823]

Son of the Mask.

 

[Scarecrow]

Beasts of No Nation

 

[Stronty]

Robocop (1987)
Visitor Q - it is hilarious when you show this film to unprepared friends.
Check out Ringo Lam's films, many of them fit your criteria. The Chow Yun Fat prison films are good too.

Full Contact might be the best revenge film.

 

[Nopren]

I really enjoy cynical matter-of-fact entertainment so I would recommend the movies:

Lord of War

Thank you, for smoking.

 

[SterGaf]

Miss Violence

Hmm, is this not the one when the attacker

Spoiler

The cop that gets hit in the face with a flare gun or something. Him turning around with his face half burned out is one of the most startling images committed to film imo.

 

[King Tubby]

We Need to Talk About Kevin was a pretty emotionally brutal watch.

Doubt is also good for something somewhat less heartwrenching.

 

[VoxPop]

sheer torture

 

[televator]

No it's not and it's not a great film.

It was good enough. Had its moments.

 

[Tak3n]

I have never met anyone who watched irreversible and not gone....fuck that. My wife made me through out the DVD back then

 

[T.O.P]

Forgot about this

 

[Dangerblade]

Martyrs

The original one from a few years ago, not the new one.

Yep. I still think about it, 6 months after watching it.

 

[tearsofash]

The Holy Mountain

 

[UltimaPooh]

The Departed.

The original Saw.

 

[Booker Dewitt]

Bellflower is pretty dour.

There's not really any good, innocent people in it though.

 

[Yekshemesh]

This movie blew me away. I'm surprised no one has suggested yet.

 

[Wollan]

Sounds like you are asking me to recommend Come and See.

And I shall oblige.

Amazing film. Stayed with me for some days after watching.

Also: I saw Watership Down for the first time a week ago and it has stayed with me. It's a cartoon about rabbits but it's really bleak and quite gory. While the rabbits do talk like humans they are limited to realistic animal behavior so if one is caught by a snare and foaming blood the others don't know how to deal with it etc. A really good movie. Reading the book now.

[Morgoth]

I watched Cannibal Holocaust when I was a teenager and it ruined my appetite for those kind of movies permanently.

That fucking turtle man.

turtle soup is an Italian horror directors favorite meal

[Vigilant Walrus]

i got something horrible for u op: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BTRw-ASbh_Q

 

[SenorDingDong]

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned already but it may fit what you're looking for. Exceptional movie in its own right too.

 

[jmelons]

Au Revoir, Les Enfants
Watch the loss of innocence of a young German boy in an autobiographical film written and directed by Louis Malle.

Or, if you're in for lighter fare, try the batshit insane Miasto 44 (WARSAW '44.)
A light-hearted telling of Polish teens forming a militia to try and stop the Nazi's from invading their town. Things go poorly.

 

[labx]

So I just watched Eden Lake... Welp that ending.

Alien
