Eraserhead depressed and horrified me first time watching when I was about 13. I've seen it since and it still has the same effect. Good though.

My recollection is that Eraserhead is really weird, I remember the bit with the chicken moving on the plate.

Bad lieutenant was a bit grim as was woolf creek.

 

[Northerndave]

threads is quite grim

Quite grim???

I saw it when I was 17 at a CND sponsored Cinema event (as it was only shown once on the Beeb if I remember) and didn't sleep for a week. I once heard them test the Nuclear Alert Siren on the top of Piccadilly Station when I worked next to it and almost pissed my pants.

In my twenties the threat of death by nuclear weapon felt a very strong possibility

I found The English Patient rather depressing.

I don’t find many films depressing but every time I make the wife watch an English film she ends up crying.
Tyrannosaur, I Daniel Blake, Sorry we missed you etc.
She always asks. “Why is it so depressing”?
And I always answer. “It’s grim up north “.

Of mice and men always got me .

 

[The Black Shed]

Human Centipede 3

I, Daniel Blake - even more depressing it documents peoples lives up to 2016 and nothing has changed 8 years later and the current rhetoric looks like it will extend it - makes Kes look like a fun musical
