    movies to ruin your good mood

    What are some downbeat depressing films to put you in a downbeat mood to ruin your happy day? here are a few I can think of

    Tim Roth's directorial debut The War Zone about incest abuse as a young boy grows up and discovers a shocking family secret

    Angela 1995 a film about two young sisters whose mom is sick and ill and go through a series of rituals to try and cleanse themselves and get caught up in sort of a fantasy world to try and purify themselves to end their mom's illness. This film is pretty downbeat and guaranteed to ruin a happy mood.

    Requiem for a dream: Everyone has a dream and in this film having a dream has a price and the world will come crashing down all around you


    these are the films that come to my mind. Anyone care to add to this list?

    Old Yeller

    The Girl Next Door (2007, Gregory Wilson) about a girl sent to live with her aunt who tortures her and encourages her cousins and their friends to rape her.

    Brazil with the original ending is fairly depressing.

    The Wrestler was depressing as hell (especially when you consider the fact that Mick Foley walked out of it in tears because he'd seen that happen to a lot of old wrestlers)

    The Mist's ending is horrible lol.

    That's all I got for now.

    Just Melvin Just Evil - its a documentary by this guys grandson. Apparently he sexually abused all of his kids and this kept on with there kids. It actually made me nauseous and it just a sad watch.

    Same with Dear Zachary. Seriously depressing same as Jesus Camp.

    Revolutionary Road (2009) will make you depressed.
    in 1961, The Misfits starring Marilyn Monroe is pretty depressing.

    Also Stand By Me gets to me. Makes me miss my old friends and gets me worried whether i'll still be friends with my current friends in the years to come.

    Hunger - 2008, directed by Steve McQueen. Hard to be happy watching a movie about Bobby Sands' hunger strike and eventual death.

    I guess anything that turns people onto Gogol Bordello can't be a total bummer.
