    Not that's also a weird movie

    But I think GS really meant Brazil (the movie by Terry Gilliam)

    That's the one. Brilliant.
    Just saw the mention of Once Were Warriors. Should have put that on my list in the first place. Same for the Exorcist.

    Requiem for a dream is one film that can give a person a headache by watching it. Other than that I didnt think it was that bad.

    I've seen the movie Man bite Dog, or It happened in Your Neighbourhood as i's known in Belgium. It made me sick the first time I saw it, because it's so depicable but hillarious. You like the serial killer but it's realistic that it's painful to laugh at how funny it is. Pretty disturbing for that alone.

    I'm also a big fan of the movie Se7en which is IMO one of the most disturbing movie ever. Doesn't have the twist of reality if Man bite Dog though.

    The first Exorcist none of those embarrsing sequels. Also one moment which was a bit disturbing, in Full Metal Jacket where sergant piles kills himself, i just didnt like the stare he had and the things he was saying.

    Once Were Warriors is a wonderful film; but you're right, the family violence is gut-wrenching. It's the point of the film, though. Fans of Star War's Jango Fett will instantly recognize the film's anti-hero as Temuera Morrison.

    Some others not mentioned:

    Basket Case --- A sick film; but entertaining in a sick, twisted sort of way

    Mondo Cane --- The grandfather of the 70's shock schlock films. Must see.
