I'm not sure if it's considered a film or not, but I found Scum to be quite disturbing, especially the rape scene and later the suicide of the boy who was raped.
I remember watching that not long after fleeing my ex, upsetting to watch.
This one actually looks okay, I might get it. :)
Also has anyone seen Buried, with the hostage buried alive in Iraq? That's not the best film to watch in the dark if you're already slightly claustrophobic, like I did. :eek:
The virgin suicides creeped me out a bit after we watched it at school.
Also i dont think it was a film really, but at school we watched this thing about a falklands veteran with PTSD murdering homeless people and putting the bodies under the floorboards of his house.
Oh did they make a film of that? I read the book not long ago and how I managed not to slit my writs I'll never know. Will never ever forget it.
I think every politician in every country in the world should be forced to read that book before taking office. Let them see what could quite possibly happen one day.
I haven't seen that but apparently it's very good. What's it about though? I might not watch it if it's another nuclear war one.
Run of the mill but good thriller, what's so haunting about it ?
I was a young lad and it was the first time |I had seen a conspiracy movie. Up until then I assumed everything was as it seemed.
I then went on to be hooked on 70,s conspiracy movies, The Parrallex View, Marathon Man, All the Presedents Men, The Conversation etc.
i think it was called "the burning bed" or something similar, it was about a battered wife, i was one at the time. unbelievably i watched it with my batterer who didn`t bat an eyelid.

Those are fantastic films. The Manchurian Candidate, too.
Come and See, a Soviet film about the Nazi invasion of Belarus, was pretty haunting, and it was difficult to get the images out of your head afterwards.
The Road is a post-apocalypse film... you don't get to see the actual destruction but instead you get to follow people trying to survive in the aftermath

i think it would still get to me now even though i don`t have any unpacked baggage and have long since forgiven him.
Yes, it's a film. Made for TV, but still a film.

Stayed with me for weeks and was very profound and powerful and obviously very Haunting.
Also The Orphanage http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0464141/ was very haunting, brilliant film.
Its on true movies today!

An Australian film about a group of schoolgirls that go misssing on Ayers Rock i have it also on DVD.
Well worth a watch for those that have not seen it yet.
I like the film where they had a special bus service to a safrai park and the animals ended up on the bus mutiny on the buses i think well funny.:D
Stan Butler and Blakey being chased upstairs on the bus by a Lion.:D:D
The humanity
Ha. That is a belter tbf.
:D
"This is your inspector" Blakey, "I am the dirver let me up first" Stan Butler
Another line they go through the Elephant enclosure and Blakey says to stan Butler "its a good job they can't get on the bus":D
Certainly from a feminist POV...:D
