    Empire of the Sun. This movie wrecked me as a kid (I was about the same age as the protagonist). Went back and watched it as a father, wrecked me again. That ending is an absolute gut shot.-u/Spodson

    I will say City of God. A beautiful film, but really disturbing at points with how matter of fact the violence is.-u/eldest_gruff

    Perfect BlueI watched it because I heard that it was Aronofsky's inspiration for Black Swan (also beautiful yet disturbing). Black Swan doesn't hold a candle to this mindf*ck.-u/mossadspydolphin

    Fargo. Incredibly violent, but very intriguingly wholesome in a way that captures everyday humanity at its best and worst. And the show is even better for all the same reasons.-u/Mindmender

    Grave of Fireflies My husband lends this to everyone who will take it because it hit him so hard. He wants everyone to get dragged over a mile of glass by the heart, too, I guess.-u/kahiau26

    Requiem for a Dream. I was just at the beginning of my decade-long heroin addiction when I watched it. F*cked me up. But apparently not enough. I have never been able to watch it a second time. I literally felt like I was losing my mind at one point.-u/Queen-of-Elves

    Schindler's List This movie is very disturbing, violent, and tragic.-u/SuvenPan

    Blue Velvet Disturbing for obvious reasons and beautiful for the absolute mastery that Lynch displays in the writing and directing. The pace and tone are so tightly controlled that the movie has left me stunned with every viewing. Absolute masterwork.-u/so_sads

    What Dreams May Come. Yes! This movie is stunningly beautiful visually. The story is very hard and sad but very well done. Thanks for reminding me of it.-u/wubbalubbadubx2

    Saving Private Ryan and not just the first 10 minutes - the whole thing is framed and filmed beautifully, particularly the death scenes.-u/Maxwyfe

    Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind It'll leave a hole in the heart so big that you can't watch it againAlso showcased how much of an actor Jim Carrey is, apart from being a comedian. -u/Headshot03

    Upstream Color. A mind-bending movie about brain parasites, telepathy, and becoming one with nature.-u/Rexcadere

    The Road. Incredibly bleak, depressing, and morbid but so beautifully made and resembles the book SO well. Easily one of my favorite movies. The way it captures the desperation and horrible things humans can do to one another but also highlights our innate instinct to push forward and survive (for better or worse). I love that movie. Definitely not a casual watch though-u/justalittlesadIguess

    The Truman Show The moment where everything starts to click and he confronts his wife is golden. "WHO ARE YOU TALKING TO?!"-u/RGX323

    Swiss Army Man. It opens with Paul Dano riding Daniel Radcliffe like a jet ski propelled by his farts. Which is absurd. But it also ends with Daniel Radcliffe riding off into the sunset like a jet ski propelled by his farts. And it is beautiful.-u/These-Square8340

    Jacobs Ladder I saw this in the theater, on a day pass from a mental hospital where I was being treated for BPD and PTSD. I sat and cried like a child for ten minutes while the credits rolled. F*cked. Me. Up.Still one of my all-time favorites.-u/MetaJonez

    American Beauty. Ignoring all of the terrible things that Kevin Spacey did, it was an equally disturbing and good experience.-u/ruchik
