Recs for scary/disturbing movies?
DH & I are staying in tonight & he suggested we rent some movies. I would love some suggestions for movies that kind of mess you up & leave you thinking KWIM? I love scary movies, but I like ones that are mentally scary & not gory. They really don't make scary movies like they used to! It doesn't have to necessarily be a horror movie either, but just something that will leave you in shock or that has a really good twisting story line. I love those types of movies! Ok enough rambling since I don't even know if I'm making any sense right now lol! TIA!

Thank you! I actually have seen that one already, but that's the exact type of movie I am talking about!0 -
The SAW movies.0

Session 9 is a good psychological horror flick. Based in a mental hospital.0

I was thinking Shutter Island too. I really like psychological thriller type movies too. Some that might be good: "Black Swan", "Unbreakable", "Silence of the Lambs", maybe some classic Hitchcock (Psycho, Vertigo, Rear Window), and I haven't seen it but "Donnie Darko" is very popular. "Pulp Fiction" is also a great film (but very violent and, just to warn you, there is a really disturbing rape scene).
Sorry, if you've seen all the films I've listed. I can't thinking of any super obscure movies right now.0 -
I made a list & I'm heading to Blockbuster, thanks so much for the great recs!0

Black Swan and Donnia Darko are really good mind movies, but not exactly scary movies. Both a must-see!0 -

Black Swan, The Machinist, Memento, Seven, Frailty, and of course Psycho.
Seven and Memento are two of my favorites.0 -
lovely molly and insidious0

Audition. Really good movie that really never shows you anything. Definitely edge of seat.0
-
Strangers. I found that pulled me in straight away. I like thrillers with a real life twist, makes them all the more scary if you think it could happen.0
-
David Lynch's 'Lost Highway'.0
-
The Descent. Gory but very scary psychologically (to me at least, I dont do scary darkness, claustrophobia type things). I left bruises on my husband's arm.
Plus theres a 2nd one thats awesomely cheesy!0 -
The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, The Girl Who Played with Fire, The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets Nest (these are not light movies)0
-
Bump! I need to see more of these types of movies...0
-
Black Swan, The Machinist, Memento, Seven, Frailty, and of course Psycho.
Seven and Memento are two of my favorites.
These are good and Frailty is good too.... Memento is one of my favorites too!0 -
The Human Centiped WAS disgustingly disturbing.....shudder!!!!!0

The Human Centiped WAS disgustingly disturbing.....shudder!!!!!
Just reading the description of that movie online made me sick for days. I don't think I could ever watch it. I think they made a second one too.0 -
I like this thread...always looking for thought-provoking-leaves-you-talking-and-analyzing type of movies.
Here's my list of faves off the top of my head:
Donnie Darko
Planet of the Apes, the most current one is the ONLY good one. Not he one with mark walberg.
Apocalypto
Insidious0 -
They don't make them like they used to, that's for sure. That's why you watch the old ones
Evil Dead series!!
I can't wait to see the new Sam Raimi movie.. eeeeep )))0 -
The Hill Have Eyes, 1 & 2 were crazy! 2 was more disturbing than 1 by far!0
-
The Human Centiped WAS disgustingly disturbing.....shudder!!!!!
Indeed!!!0 -
i spit on your grave
the human centipede
edit: there is some gore in both, but it is shorter lived i think. i spit on your grave is really messed and the gore is deserved, so that should make it ok!0 -
