synn:
Ok, here are some movies which are really good.
A Scanner Darkly: An undercover cop in a not-too-distant future becomes involved with a dangerous new drug and begins to lose his own identity as a result.
Arang: A salt storehouse near the sea may be haunted. A penniless ex-con dies a gristly death in a house he can ill afford. The detectives assigned the case are Min, newly reinstated after a suspension, and Lee, a new transfer from forensics. Min has nightmares: a sexual assault that haunts her. She and Lee work well together, but soon two more deaths occur - each mysteriously poisoned, both friends of the ex-con.
Children of Men: In 2027, in a chaotic world in which humans can no longer procreate, a former activist agrees to help transport a miraculously pregnant woman to a sanctuary at sea, where her child's birth may help scientists save the future of humankind.
Clerks: Just Because They Serve You... Doesn't Mean They Like You.

Diary of the Dead: A group of young film students run into real-life zombies while filming a horror movie of their own.
Diving Bell and the Butterfly: The true story of Elle editor Jean-Dominique Bauby who suffers a stroke and has to live with an almost totally paralyzed body; only his left eye isn't paralyzed.
Harakiri: Peace in 17th-century Japan causes the Shogunate's breakup of warrior clans, throwing thousands of samurai out of work and into poverty. An honorable end to such fate under the samurai code is ritual suicide, or hara-kiri (self-inflicted disembowelment). An elder warrior, Hanshiro Tsugumo (Tatsuya Nakadai) seeks admittance to the house of a feudal lord to commit the act. There, he learns of the fate of his son-in-law, a young samurai who sought work at the house but was instead barbarically forced to commit traditional hara-kiri in an excruciating manner with a dull bamboo blade. In flashbacks the samurai tells the tragic story of his son-in-law, and how he was forced to sell his real sword to support his sick wife and child. Tsugumo thus sets in motion a tense showdown of revenge against the house.
Hunger: The last six weeks of the life of the Irish republican hunger striker Bobby Sands.
In the Name of the Father: Based on the true story of Gerry Conlon, a Belfast youth who - along with family members and friends - was wrongly convicted of bombing two pubs outside of London.

Persopolis: Poignant coming-of-age story of a precocious and outspoken young Iranian girl that begins during the Islamic Revolution.
Rescue Dawn: A US Fighter pilot's epic struggle of survival after being shot down on a mission over Laos during the Vietnam War. A true story of survival... declassified.

Sympathy For Mr Vengeance (Korean)
It’s one of the darkest films You'll ever see..I’ll describe one of the earlier scenes. We see a group of boys franticly beating off with ears pressed against the wall, listening to the moans of the woman next door. One says, “This is great!” Pan through the wall to the terminally ill woman, writhing about her bed in agony. Pan to hear deaf mute brother, happily slurping noodles with his back to the whole scene.
RYU, a young factory worker who recently got fired by his boss, is struggling to look after his sister, who is dying a slow, agonizing death for want of a kidney. When a doctor tells Ryu that he is an unsuitable donor and that the chances of finding one is slim, Ryu turns to the black market. But the old lady who runs an underground organ ring cheats him, taking both his life savings and his kidney and leaving him without the kidney she promised in exchange.
Ryu's girlfriend, YOUNGMIN, urges Ryu to kidnap the four-year-old daughter of his former Boss PARK DONG-JIN. (The guy who fired him). Ryu agrees, but just as the plan is on the verge of success, Ryu's sister discovers what Ryu and Youngmin have been up to, and kills herself in despair.
Compounding the tragedy, the kidnapped child gets killed. Dong-jin (The Father of the killed child) watches his kids body being autopsied (chest ripped open & all the intestines pulled out infront of him) and his grief is unimaginable, he quickly turns to rage and he embarks on an implacable quest for vengeance. He gets hold of Ryu's girlfriend & what he do to her will make your blood chill.
At the same time, Ryu goes after the organ traders, knowing that if they had come through, none of the tragic occurrences would ever have happened.
This is the first part of the Vengeance Trilogy. Second film is the cult classic "Oldboy"..but for me this one is way better...
