My school is pretty un PC. Cracking Holocaust jokes willy nilly :frown:

Yes, I'm as white as mashed potatoes
boy in striped pyjamas (i cried) or, now bare with me, brokeback mountain (i cried again).
This is too easy.

If you want not only to be sad, but to have crippling depression for months afterwards. Fearing a drink of alcohol or a cigarette. I have the perfect film for you:

Requiem For A Dream

I recently watched the trailer again for this. Enjoy having no happiness for months.

Depressing - 9th Company (2005). Russia-Afghanistan war film that is just plain bleak.

Upsetting - Martha Marcy May Marlene (2011). Woman who fled a cult is haunted by her time there.

Sad - Solaris (2002). A psychologist is sent to find out what has gone wrong with the crew of a space station, only to be confronted by past memories he had long since buried.

so am I .. but not for longer :u:
Watch funny games, the new version (with Tim Roth I think). This movie will shock you to the point you won't be able to cry. It's disturbing, very sad and will make you depressed, in fact you'll wish you hadn't seen it. But then you'll realise how true the movie is and that will make you even more depressed. Don't expect anything close to cheery from this. It's deep dark chasm full of depression, sadness and torment.
TOY STORY 3, damn it Disney! I was expecting a movie that wouldn't make me cry!


Plot summary:

Spoiler


I wouldn't say it's the saddest or most depressing movie I've ever seen, but it's definitely worth a watch, and hasn't been mentioned yet

The Stanford Prison Experiment (Based on a true story btw)

It isn't depressing, but it's quite a sad story of an experiment taken way, way, way too far. You'll see these guys hitting their breaking point and basically going crazy. Fantastic film.


omg this experiment is so disturbing but i found it so fascinating. im glad ive found someone else who knows
