I was gonna say Requiem too fromage. That's a good one.
Hard Candy is another good call Beacon.
Eraserhead. I have no idea what it's really about, but that singing lady in the mouse hole freaks me out bug time.
And since Disney was brought up - Fox and the Hound.

I found this trailer for an Asian film coming out soon. There seems to be very info on it, but it's called "Art Of The Devil".
Before you click, be aware that this is really f**ked up, so click at your own risk:

I don't know how anyone could not say that Un chien andalou is not disturbing. Have you not watch the first 10 minutes??? Bunuel was an amazing film director! All of his films rock.
A Clockwork Orange would be one of my favorites. But usually I'm not one to watch disturbing films again, such as Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer, Last House on the Left (1972), The Hills Have Eyes (1977) and Mother's Day. The latter three are horrid films anyway.
Dead Alive while disturbing has got to be one of the most hilarious films around.

Posted: 2/16/08 at 2:12pmSo what was so "disturbing" about DANCER IN THE DARK and VIRIDIANA (evidently you were so disturbed that you couldn't even remember how to spell it correctly) and DEAD ALIVE?

Posted: 2/16/08 at 2:13pmUntil you've seen IN A GLASS CAGE, you ain't been disturbed.
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”
