Most Depressing Movies You've ever watched

[Mad Old Lu]

Most depressing:

The Road (I wanted to shoot myself in the head for most of the movie and at the almost very end--you know why)

Seeking a Friend for the End of the World (for something that was marketed as a quirky black comedy, it was incredibly depressing)



Depressing but in a good way:

Atonement (the absolute best! One of my very favorite movies of all time)

Never Let Me Go (maybe slightly okay depressing)



Oh, and I remember Johnny Got His Gun from that Metallica video in the 80s.

The Road

A lot of people saying The Road. Have to agree. Bloody hell, that is some bleak ****. Saw it a few years ago, but can't ever see myself watching it again.

The Road (I wanted to shoot myself in the head for most of the movie and at the almost very end--you know why)

Seeking a Friend for the End of the World (for something that was marketed as a quirky black comedy, it was incredibly depressing)

The Road

 

[Adolfo]

Many great ones here...one who flew over the cuckoos nest....even the thing and Alien...in a way a no win situation

 

[Devil_666]

The Divide is pretty depressing.

 

[CallMeTheDoctor]

**** Cuckoo was too. Not a very known one but Manic and 50/50 also were. Man, Joseph Gordon-Levitt really loves depressing ****.

 

[Adolfo]

The Grey was too imho

 

[Jokes & Bats]

Yeah, 50/50 was a tough one.

 

[CallMeTheDoctor]

Like, not even the fact he got with Anna made me feel good.

 

[CallMeTheDoctor]

Theory of Everything --- this one is tough to see Jane go through all of it, ironically

 

[YankeesFanboy]

Requiem for a Dream, of course. The ending of The Godfather: Part II. And Nightcrawler.

 

[batfan08]

I don't remember what it was called, but I just remember the dude from that Beatles musical falling in love with Anne Hathaway and her getting run over by a bus. Actually not as depressing as you'd think.

 

[Sweet Rabbit]

**** the road

I the Spider-Man Comiquette in the middle of watching it and I didn't even feel like opening afterwards
