Most disturbing in a good way: Demons. Absolutely brilliant. There are a couple of Ingmar Bergman movies up there
as well.
Based on the controversial theatrical piece by Swedish playwright Lars Noren, Demons (Demoner) is a devastating study of a dysfunctional marriage. The combatants are Ewa Froling and Lars Green, who consider the day wasted if they can't viciously tear into one another. Green hopes for a respite when his in-laws announce that they plan to visit, but the would-be guests, anticipating a battle royal, decide not to show up. Desperate for human companionship other than his hated wife, Green invites a neighboring couple, Pia Oscarsson and Bjorn Granath, over for a few drinks. What follows makes Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf look like The Donna Reed Show. Even if you survive the film's ceaseless barrage of verbal recriminations and physical humiliations, you will not be totally prepared for Demons' grim climax. Most disturbing in a really bad way: An S&M leather gay movie that was played as a backdrop (or, thankfully, sidedrop) of a live concert by a cutting edge group at a club (they were very good). |

It was after college ... maybe early or mid 20's. Beautiful girl, great student, snarky. Major rebellion, injuries sustained in moto accident. Then ... she took the plunge. |

The kids are mostly adorable, but the mom and dad have completely fallen apart and announced their separation/divorce yesterday. She's a complete diva bitch and he's a nutless wonder 30 going on 19 year old loser. Any questions? |

I recently saw "Funny Games" and it was a very disturbing film. I hated it, but couldn't stop watching.
I was pretty young when I watched "Eraserhead" and it freaked me out for a while. I had dreams about that stupid movie for months! |
