I think the best one had to be that remake of a Kurosawa horror film called The Grudge with Sarah Michelle Gellar. That was the only horror movie to ever actually give me a true scare.
The Grudge is definitely not a Kurosawa film lol
Ach! You’re correct. My memory failed me. I thought The Grudge was a remake of Ju-On and I forgot who directed Ju-On. I see that it is now a Netflix series. Might have to check it out. Ju-On
Grave of the Fireflies
It is the greatest movie that I will never, ever, watch again.
It was originally screened with My Neighbor Totoro……
Btw I agree. It’s an absolutely devastatingly beautiful movie.
I’m pretty sure they put them together because that’s how you keep everyone from becoming suicidally depressed after watching Grave of the Fireflies D:
Iirc Totoro viewed first.
Well that’s a tactical error.
I’m usually not a particularly emotional guy but damn that movie messed me up for a while.
The ending to The Mist will follow me to my grave. Absolutely fucked up
Yeah an amazing movie and the ending is absolutely horrid just because it’s completely fucked up.
Such a shame I can’t find a 4k release
A russian War Film called “Come and See” Three hours of watching a young boy being mentally wrecked by the atrocities of War. Gruesom, fucked up but incredible Film
Just watched that a few weeks back. Took years to psyche myself up to watch it, due to it’s notoriety. It wasn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be, but it is NOT for the faint hearted. Truly a masterwork in acting and cinematography. The sound, in particular, was haunting and dissonant.
