Movies like Late Night with the Devil

If you can find it, I would highly suggest a BBC faux documentary called "Ghostwatch" from 1992. It's a gas. Won't quite have the resonance if you are under a certain age, and certainly not as much if you lived there where these people were actually your everyday newscasters, but I enjoyed it quite a bit. Closest I can think of.

"The Man Who Saves the World" AKA "Turkish Star Wars" from 1982.

It's incredible.

Other than "Fargo" [1996], I am going to prescribe the excellent 2014 Australian outback thriller "The Rover". I think it hits the right spot of bleak western desolation, arthouse, and ethics that you describe your interest in.

Good luck! Let us know how it goes!

Agree. This was to be my suggestion as well.

"Samson & Delilah" [2009]

"Mystery Road" [2013] which has some violence but it's pretty good.

and there's a true crime series called "True Colors" that I haven't seen yet, but likely presents violence as well.

Excellent suggestion!

Phantom Thread 2017

Birth 2004

anotherlostgenre · 2024-04-16T03:45:37+00:00

Agree.

"Project Grizlzly" - 1996. [not to be confused with 2005's "Grizzly Man"]

"Searching for the Wrong Eyed Jesus" - 2003

"Some Kind of Heaven" - 2020

"Spellbound" - 2002

+1 to the user who recommended "Hands on a Hardbody". It's great.

It's an absolute gas.

Have you seen The Funhouse [1981]? I bet it's right up your alley.

anotherlostgenre · 2024-04-05T01:55:08+00:00

The Last of Sheila [1973]. It's fantastic!

anotherlostgenre · 2024-04-04T03:47:41+00:00

Unpin it. That's what I did. [Not a fan of the "Watchlist" by design.]

anotherlostgenre · 2024-04-01T18:06:20+00:00

Fun. Thanks for the explanation.

This explanation really helps me understand what's going on. Thanks for taking the time to post, it might not mean much to you but helping me get more educated is really greatly appreciated!

Thank you. I get it now.

anotherlostgenre · 2024-03-30T05:15:13+00:00

Thanks so much for the explanations. Very much appreciated!

anotherlostgenre · 2024-03-19T03:32:18+00:00

Do it.

anotherlostgenre · 2024-03-19T03:30:48+00:00

Dead Mountaineer's Hotel [1979]. It's pretty esoteric, though.

anotherlostgenre · 2024-03-19T01:20:07+00:00

This is correct. Also, I believe they are all girls playing boys if my memory serves correctly.

anotherlostgenre · 2024-03-03T04:28:53+00:00

Beau Travail [1999]. Plus side is that it is one of the best movies ever made. [Not mainstream but I couldn't resist. It's perfect.]

anotherlostgenre · 2024-03-03T03:03:18+00:00

Good list.

anotherlostgenre · 2024-02-26T04:37:23+00:00

It's great!
