Re: Top 5 Pessimistic Movies
Consider THE MIST, Stephen King, directed by Frank Darabont. Pessimistic with steroids...ESPECIALLY THE ENDING! What is this existence all for? It left me with an itch to throw myself from a high building.

Re: Top 5 Pessimistic Movies
I only can think of one movie. I watched it once when I was a kid and it freaked me out major. And I refuse to watch it ever again. It’s titled “the music box”. I had no idea that movies could tell stories in such vivid and shocking ways as this movie did. Deeply disturbing...it gives me the heebies just thinking of it.

Neon Demon: brilliant condemnation of the model industry as horror and madness. The children don't need Saturn. They eat themselves literally. The eye, the eye...Two more to go.

Your fall should be like the fall of mountains. But I was before mountains. I was in the beginning, and shall be forever. The first and the last. The world come full circle. I am not the wheel. I am the hand that turns the wheel. I am Time, the Destroyer. I was the wind and the stars before this. Before planets. Before heaven and hell. And when all is done, I will be wind again, to blow this world as dust back into endless space. To me the coming and going of Man is as nothing.
