Another 2013 film post. Only Eddy and my cousin have seen this one.
I have to get straight in with a warning here. These films are described as uncomfortable, as this is the type of viewing experience you can expect. Some are downright nasty, and all will make you uneasy at some point, and you may even turn them off. They contain scenes of sexual violence, mass-murder, casual killings, and portrayals of madness. So, watch at your peril, and don’t say I didn’t warn you.
Why recommend them in that case? Despite the above disclaimers, I feel that they all have something to offer; about society, or war, or human endurance. Some are studio productions with a star cast, others made on a budget, with little-known actors. All are well-made, with performances of intensity, and sincerity, from all those involved. Without exception, none of them are feel-good films, and all will leave you with unpleasant memories. A lot like real life then…

I’m particularly interested in “The Grey Zone.” (I wrote a comment on the original blog page.)

It has a strange ‘theatrical’ feel that for some reason made it all the more disturbing to me. I will never forget it, that’s for sure.
Best wishes, Pete.

I’ve only watched Jacob’s Ladder and Casualties of War, but the others look interesting.

Heavy, but still worth seeing I think.

I would watch Paranormal activities. It is one of teh lowest budgets horror movie shot in one week on a handheld camera. But it is too scary to watch alone.
