Inspired by a list from IMDb, curated by Dr. Unken (https://web.archive.org/web/20210306111226/https://www.imdb.com/list/ls031142976/), I am in search of other films that have a similar tone to the films in that list. You can recommend me anything, even if the film is the same from that list. They can be in any genre and the language can be English or a foreign language.

Examples of such films include:

  • "Martyrs" (2008) (In French with English subtitles)
  • "Funny Games" (1997) (In German with English subtitles)
  • "Possessor" (2020)
  • "We Need to Talk About Kevin" (2011)
  • "You Were Never Really Here" (2017)
  • "Dragged Across Concrete" (2018)
  • "Green Room" (2015)
  • "Manhunter" (1986)
  • "Nightcrawler" (2014)
  • "Kill List" (2011)
  • "Enter the Void" (2009)
  • "Dear Zachary: A Letter to a Son About His Father" (2008)
  • "Blue Ruin" (2013)
  • "Requiem for a Dream" (2000)
  • "Antichrist" (2009)

If you want to work yourself up to it you could try In This Corner of the World.

If you’re looking for a true story like Grave of the Fireflies but with live action I would recommend Snowy Road.

Tissues, a warm blanket, and post-movie comfort snacks are a must.
