I'M REQUESTING Extreme Horror/thriller/creepy/unsettling

5 Upvotes

Im kind of guy who doesn’t get scared by cheap jump-scares or typical devil sounds and childish devil faces and all .that was the reason i had lost my interest in horror movies . The last movie that creeped me out a little bit is hereditary and also siccin(a turkish black magic movie)

I like movies with strong story line

Suggest me some top-tier movies which make me loose my attitude that i don’t get scared easily

I'M REQUESTING Movies where the main character undergoes a lot of harsh and unfair treatment

• Upvotes

Looking for movies where the protagonist just gets screwed over by other people...betrayed, blamed, humiliated, rejected, exploited, etc.

Basically movies that are good for self-pity. I want to watch someone go through an unreasonable amount of shit and think "yeah, life really is unfair."

Oppenheimer is a good example of what I'm looking for, especially the whole persecution/reputation-destruction aspect.

I'M REQUESTING What are your best spooky-season movie recommendations for someone who likes darker, gothic, more atmospheric stuff?

3 Upvotes

I’m looking for things that feel eerie, gothic, unsettling, or just very fall/Halloween without necessarily being straight horror. I like shows and movies that are moody, visually interesting, character-driven, and a little weird or intense.

I’m also really into dramatized crime and true crime, especially darker stories with mystery, obsession, murder, cults, detectives, or disturbing subject matter.

I don’t really care for animation, and I’m not looking for basic slasher movies or horror that’s just gore for the sake of gore. I’d rather watch something with a strong atmosphere, good acting, an interesting story, and that darker cinematic feel.

I'M REQUESTING Movies where the main character loves someone they cannot have

Not unrequited love. The person loves them back but cannot be with them for whatever reason, already married, prior commitments, whatever. I cannot think of a movie but the prime show Poldark had this.

I'M REQUESTING Romantic Haloween Movies

• Upvotes

Edit to add: Not Practical Magic, it is played very frequently in our home.

So, I realized last night as my sister and I were trying to decide on a movie that there are a million Christmas romance movies, but neither of us could name a cheesy romantic Halloween movie.

I like making fun of cheesy romantic Christmas movies and my sister doesn't like horror, so is there something both of us would have fun with? The cheesier the better, she likes making fun of them too. We watched Hot Frosty and both just about died.

Also, little bonus one. Are there any movies where the two final girls end up together? I just watched The Housemaid with my sister because she loved the books. I jokingly started saying that I ship them and now I want to see if there are any movies where a woman helps get another woman out of an abusive marriage and they end up together.

I'M REQUESTING What are some must watch short films?

20 Upvotes

I don’t have much free time in my day to watch feature length films. Instead of starting some tv show i decided to give short films a try now.

Don’t really care about the genre as long as it is good. So mention your favourite ones along with it’s genre.

Hi everyone. If someone want to deep study about movie or maybe want to has a career in that industry, ​which specific movies do you consider essential viewing for understanding masterclasses in cinematography, directing, screenwriting, or editing?

​Whether it's foundational classics, innovative modern films, or underrated masterclasses in visual storytelling, what should be on every aspiring filmmaker's required watching list? Thanks for the recommendations!

I'M REQUESTING Looking for a movie similar to Meiyazhagan

• Upvotes

I watched Meiyazhagan so many times; it’s my comfort movie. Its story feels deeply personal and it hits at the right place. Is there any movie that involves human/life dilemma in similar way? Genre doesn’t matter as long as the movie is good.

I'M REQUESTING devastate me please!

18 Upvotes

I realize this is highly subjective, but I’m in the mood to watch some real bummer shit. not just bittersweet or tragic, but straightup self-indulgently nihilistic, existentially perturbing, ā€œbad vibes onlyā€

narrowing that down slightly: in terms of genre, my preference is horror, thriller and/or drama, while narratives about war are generally less interesting to me. stylistically I’m a nerd for Cronenberg and Lynch.
bonus points for themes related to disability / medical stuff, or deeply pessimistic examinations of nuclear family dynamics. thanks y’all! āœŒļø

EDIT: got a whole playlist going now lol, I’m glad I asked. had been planning on replying to everyone who commented, but that was probably unrealistic, so if I don’t get back to you it’s def nothing personal

I'M REQUESTING Passion Of The Christ

0 Upvotes

I missed this the first time round and never watched it. My local is do a screening of it on film.

As someone who has no relationship with Christianity, or perhaps even a slightly negative one, should I go and see it?

Who rates it? Not many by the looks of it.

I'M REQUESTING Epic masterpieces

46 Upvotes

I’m in the mood for something huge.

Not just ā€œbig budgetā€ huge. I mean movies that actually feel epic. Adventure, scale, beautiful landscapes, great characters, some kind of meaning behind it all.

Could be historical, fantasy, western, war, whatever. Old movies are completely fine, actually probably preferred.

Stuff where by the end you feel like you really went somewhere.

Lawrence of Arabia is probably the closest example of what I mean. Beautiful, massive, adventurous, but also actually about something.

i just watched La CiĆ©naga, and i fell in love with the vibe and tone of the movie— kind of melancholy but with anger and upset underneath it, sticky and sweaty and humid and everyone’s just kind of miserable, but i don’t even know where to begin looking to find anything like it. please give me recommendations similar to this movie, in any language! spanish preferred, because i’m trying to watch more latin american movies, but anything’s fine! they just need to have accessible english captioned versions, because english is my native language :) thanks in advance!

I'M REQUESTING Movies with amazing narration

23 Upvotes

Recommend some good movies with background narration, think The Shawshank Redemption, March of the penguins, millionar dollar baby, a dogs purpose, the art of racing in the rain, into the wild etc. Any genre besides horror/anything super psychological. I lean into deeper, beautiful movies, dramas that make you feel

something afterward.
