Silver Bullet - fairly decent Stephen King werewolf-novel adaptation from the early 80's with a very young Corey Haim and Gary Busey. It does this weird thing where it goes from R-rated horror to weird family friendly style... im not sure what to make of it.
(Sidebar - i LOVE the mythology of Werewolves and love a good Werewolf movie.... however there's only like, two or three that are any good. Does anybody have any obscure Werewolf movies they can recommend? The Howling is the best, Werewolf in London behind that... other than that it's pretty bleak. Curse of the Werewolf is ok for those Hammer style movies)
Irreversible - well fuck... I've heard a lot about this movie over the years, on how it's supposed to be one of the most disturbing, hard-to-watch movies ever made; on how half the audience walked out at it's Cannes debut and how people fainted at the premiers. Since it's on Amazon prime, I decided to check it out... Hmm.
It's definitely disturbing... the rape scene is probably the worst movie rape scene ever and seems to go on forever, and is extremely hard to watch. Probably one of the harshest scenes I've ever seen. The extreme violence (outside of the rape scene) wasn't too extreme.
I could definitely see why people walked out, as you get dizzy with the handheld camera and constant spinning and circling around to add to the chaos. It definitely works, but at more than a few points you want to grab the fucking camera man and tell him to hold fucking still.
The movie itself is well-done. It's one of those "starts at the end and goes backward" films, and it really works and changes the dynamic from a rape/revenge movie to something way more thought-provoking and intense. It's one of those movies, like The Vanishing, where the torment is in your head.
here's a good review of you're interested.
