This has been one of the most draining movies I have ever watched.
I need more movies like this. Shit that leaves you feeling empty and with a bad taste.

This has been one of the most draining movies I have ever watched. I need more movies like this.
It was hilarious but at the same time it has a negative emotional aura. Just puts you in a bad mood.
>leaves you feeling empty
>puts you in a bad mood
What does it mean if this movie made me feel good?
What does it mean if this movie made me feel good?
You understood the film.
This. Never underestimate the idiocy of the average Cinemaphile poster.
Synecdoche, New York.
it had a happy ending
I'll raise you
this is a comedy. you Black folk don't understand it
now this shit is fricking depressing. I'd also add The Fire Within and Oslo, August 31st for anyone who hasn't seen them
Now watch A Serbian Film (2010)
Too edgy. So edgy that it turns in to a dark comedy.
The Fifth Continent
Der Todesking
Songs from the Second Floor
>the fifth continent
stay moronic Cinemaphile
I used to like Solondz movies, but then I eventually realized it's just a few making endless movies about how everyone in the suburbs is dysfunctional, a pedophile, a sexual deviant, a moron, or all of the above.
That leaves me with a bad taste. Makes you wonder what goes on in his miserable head.
>No it's deep because normal people are all secretly perverted I'm not projecting
>movie makes you feel miserable
>you want more of this
?? You just got brainwashed and traumatized and you want more?
Yes.
Felt like staring into the abyss.
You really don’t. You think you do but you really don’t. You’re like a junkie who’s telling you he really needs his fix.
Gees Louise.
I'm gonna watch Man Bites Dog
You should do something to cleanse yourself of the mind poison you just watched instead. Shit that makes you feel awful exists exactly for that reason only. Unless it has an important message that couldn’t be delivered any other way you really shouldn’t watch stuff like that.
Recommend some kinos then.
I watched too much slop. I need to be cleansed from the usual power fantasies and distractions that keep us like drugged out animals.
Irreversible, then Melancholia.
stop projecting
hey homosexual, not everyone is as fragile as you
the abyss stares back
Pic related is the most edgelord unpleasant movie I've ever seen
One of the worst movies I've ever seen. Would not recommend.
Happiness is too cartoony to make me feel miserable.
Pretty kino black comedy nonetheless.
One of the greatest movies ever. I also recommend Welcome to the Dollhouse.
The Lobster
Synechdoche New York (and whatever other shit that guy made)
Anomalisa is absolutely miserable too
It sure looks like it. I haven't been able to bring myself to watch it...
It's funny
Whatever (1996) is proto incel kino. Great watch if you don’t have an issue with subtitles.
do you mean 1999? I'm not finding a movie called Whatever from 1996
I watched this back in the day, and can
completely see why Philip Seymour Hoffman used heroin
>and can
>completely see why Philip Seymour Hoffman used heroin
why?
He was too pure for this world, he needed to go out hard
i've been dancing with, Mr. Brownstone

>todd solondz flick
they're all israeli
Todd Solondz hopefully is OK
Funny Games
I can never find the urge to watch Happiness again. It was too fricked up, and I’m usually fine with that sort of stuff. I can watch Welcome To The Dollhouse over and over though
It's weird. I watch this film every year on my birthday and it always hits. My birthday is this week though and I'm thinking of some else though
It's the opposite for me.
Happiness is fricked up but ends on a somewhat positive note, Welcome to the Dollhouse is painful to watch and implies that it gets even worse.
idk Mysterious Skin maybe?
Warning: Don't make this your Date Night movie
>I'd probably jerk off instead
Women Talking (I assume, not in a trillion years would I watch that narcoleptic dreck)
I watched it for Jessie Buckley. She was quite good, but nah, frick that.
unironically Saturday Night Fever
But that’s just my life
Requiem for a Dream
>todd zolondz is israeli
>wikipedia page just calls him "atheist"
can someone update his page please
Watch the other Solondz movies, especially Storytelling. Larry Clark movies (Kids, Ken Park, Bully). Rick Alverson is a newer director who reminds me of Solondz, though a bit more surreal, his films The Comedy and Entertainment are both great (trigger warning Tim Heidecker). Some other random recs: I'm Still Here, Spun, Schizopolis, Enter The Void, Joe (1970), Crash (1996), Fritz The Cat, Irreversible, Breaking the Waves, Straw Dogs, Santa Sangre, The Last House on the Left (1972)
also Precious by Lee Daniels, even though it ends up being Black virtue signaling there are a lot of over the top harsh moments reminiscent of Happiness
Also, frick it, if you're willing to watch all out gore watch some Marian Dora films. Carcinoma is his best imo, Cannibal is also good and based on a true story, Melancholie Der Engel is his claim to fame. Unfortunately his other films are hard to find, but I've heard Debris Documentar and Voyage to Agatis are also good.
why Fritz? Bakshi movies are comfy af
The Last House on the Left fricking SUCKS and I don't understand why it's a classic. The acting/pacing is absolute garbage
Really? I thought the pacing was great, the soundtrack/sound design too
Filtered. The remake does suck though
The first fifteen minutes of Storytelling are brilliant and make a great statement
Soul Murder: The movie.
don't stick your dick in crazy
Everyone in this thread is talking to themselves
That's The Happiness effect.
Is this actually good? A Houellbecq film adaptation seems impossible.
i have it downloaded but i can't get through the whole thing. too bleak.
I'll have to give it a shot, the book is pretty good though not my favorite Houellbecq
Much like Happiness it's satire targeting affluent white liberals. It's also pretty dark, don't you remember Harlem being bombed? The gang rape scene? The part where Fritz is radicalized into a nazi?
The book is pretty good.
Houellebecq should be required reading for 4chuds.
I'm being totally serious. This movie has a strange depressing effect on the viewer.
Melancholia - went into it foolishly thinking it was going to be a sci fi.
>what if depression had cosmic implications and human relationships heralded apocalyptic scenarios?
All it made me realize were people are fricking petty as frick and I barely understand how most don’t blue screen everyday from the mundanity scented nightmare.
Eternal sunshine is a knife to the soul after a breakup.

Is this actually kino? It seems to piss off Cinemaphile badly
I'd say it's kino. It goes for a very specific feeling of fricked up and succeeds. Now, do you actually need to see a movie where every character is a pervert who gradually destroys their lives with pedophilia, cheating, inceldom, etc? Many people don't think so, and I can't convince them otherwise. But even if it's hard to find a message or morally redeemable qualities in the movie, I find it worth watching just for being a movie that dives into bleakness unapologetically as if it just wants to see how you'll react.
>used to love this movie
>the scene where the dad comes out as a pedo to his son is absolutely hysterical
>one day my brother gets caught for CP
>don't think about the movie for a couple of years
>smoke a bowl one night and see it in my hard drive
>in the mood for a comedy so I put it on
>the pedo scene gives me a fricking panic attack
>can't watch the movie now without feeling an overwhelming sense of dread
Frick you, Garrett. You ruined some real kino for me
the first half of "beau is afraid" is great. it's this absurd hellscape but at the same time it's hard to point out anything and say "yeah bit things aren't really like that". there really is violence and depravity in the streets, there really are apartments that are falling to bits, antagonistic neighbors, people looking to rob you the instant they get the chance, and so on. it's just a shame the second half was also in the movie. protip to any aspiring film makers in the thread: leave out the giant penis monster.
all of todd solondz's stuff. also leaving las vegas.

WHY WON'T THEY RELEASE THE BLU-RAY
Henry Fool
The trick is to watch when you already in a constant bad mood. I thought it was hilarious
The movie was way too funny to be depressing
