@auteurhouse This is a very interesting list. I intend to watch several of these films. Up until now, I've only seen two: Antoine and Colette and La Jetée.
Antoine & Colette is "the second installment in Truffaut's five-film series about Antoine Doinel".
It's my favorite from this pentalogy
6/6
The medical condition of the mother. This film could have been better/more heartbreaking if the main core wasn't the paranormal but the true horrors of life. But it chose to "play it safe" in the end, like most of horror movies nowadays. This was the film's true flaw imo.
1/6
UNDERTONE : Definitely a polarizing movie that won't appeal to everyone,but it worked for me.
This is one of the best horror films I've seen in the last few years. It reminded me of films like Hereditary, Skinamarink & Pontypool (2008), although it

went for something different/original. Most horror films copy each other. While UNDERTONE is still influenced by some films, there's creativity/originality here.
Nina Kiri was great.
At the beginning, it was hard to watch not due to paranormal horror but something way worse:

aimed at more mature audiences.However, it probably won't scare you that much if you're not religious.
Another thing I appreciated here is the dialogue.There were some really disturbing phrases floating around which caught me by surprise.I appreciate that the creators really
3/6
an one-location film in which the horror is implied rather than shown, heavily relying on dialogue, like Pontypool.
I was really scared at some points. This is not an "entertaining" horror film with jump scares, gore, or action,but more like a sad, psychological drama-horror
2/6
doesn't look much like any of them. There are shades of those films: the creepy/eerie & "demonic" atmosphere of Hereditary without the "action",
the constant camera motion without so many jump scares & the weirdness of Skinamarink,
& the structure of Pontypool.
It is mostly
@DannyDrinksWine This is his last good movie. It's not that well-received but I enjoyed it a lot. The two movies which followed this (The Ward and Ghosts of Mars) were mediocre to bad imo. In any case, a great director with so many movies you can watch again and again.
These were heartbreaking, too

@Lovandfear Maturity is knowing that being good has nothing to do with the appreciation of others. It is about being able to sleep like a baby, without a heavy conscience. No matter the problems one is facing, the thought that they weren't harmful to others is a recipe for inner peace.
@theblaiirwitch Some great recommendations here (Mother/The Ugly Stepsister/Pandorum, etc).
Mine are these :
Incident in a Ghostland
The Taking of Deborah Logan
Piggy (Spanish)
Bull
The Blue Elephant (Egypt)
@DannyDrinksWine It doesn't matter if you're an intellectual or someone more simple,
an artist, a blue-collar worker , or a white-collar worker, a great actor, a mediocre one, or completely insignificant.
One thing's for sure: as long as you live, you'll be in the wrong. A LOT of times.
@mike_muzic Probably not the best, but definitely my favorite one. I had so much fun back then listening to it,
this mix of metal and rap felt revolutionary to me. Ofc, you were considered a 'poser' and a fraud metal fan by the majority of die-hard fans if you liked it :)
(I didn't care).
