Most Depressing of these Movies

[Brando @$$ Fat]

I'll have to go with LEAVING LAS VEGAS...a wonderful film...but certainly very very depressing.

[thedudeman69]

I have to agree. Watching a man trying to kill himself really hits you in the chest.

[Bonham]

I was between American History X and Requiem. X got the edge because:
A) I didn't see it coming
B) I really started to like Furlong's character.

[Hannibal21]

The Elephant Man

[bluesbrother965]

The Elephant Man, by far from those I've seen, but I haven't seen a bunch of the ones you listed.

[rufio]

Requiem For A Dream

very good movie, yet very depressing.

[Cronos]

Requiem For A Dream

amazingly great film but depressed the hell out of me

[AJAX]

The Elephant Man

[ilovemovies]

Trainspotting. It was depressing watching because I'm depressed to see an awful movie! :p


Of the few movies I've seen I went with 21 Grams.

[poopontheshoes7]

I havent seen them all but I voted for Reqium. I felt like I had to help these people.

[MovieIllusions]

Definately Requeim For A Dream god that was just really depressing as mess. But yeah I haven't seen alot of those, so others could be more depressing than this one.

[SpacePuppet]

Requiem For A Dream, I love the movie, but I only watch it once in a while because I feel so depressed after watcing it.

[Tayzlor]

American History X
Born on the Fourth of July
Save the Tiger

I haven't seen either of the above so I'm going to pretend they aren't in the poll. From the rest I'll go with Last Tango in Paris, a movie I haven't seen in a year but I still remember those Brando monologues and painful sessions in the apartment.

[Brando @$$ Fat]

I'm surprised to see everyone saying REQUEIM FOR A DREAM. Not that it isn't very depressing, but I'd say it's not more depressing than the rest of those movies.

Oh well, that's just me talking.

[Mr-Blonde]

Gotta chime in with the rest about Requiem. That was some brutal shit. I had to go seek therapy after watching it--- SHOCK THERAPY!

[GoldenGhost]

The Elephant Man.

Sniffle, sniffle.

[Sigur509]

Requiem for a Dream

[Gian-Sergio]

Raging Bull

[Lazy Boy]

Leaving Las Vegas

Although I would say it's more sad than depressing; I only get depresssed after wating time watching a really shitty excuse for a movie.

[Mr. Fancy Pants]

For me The Wall beats them all.

I voted for 21 Grams off the list.

[wyodebbie]

Leaving Las Vegas, a good film but makes me feel so depressed after watching it.

[iluvjude01]

I'm gonna have to go w/ Requiem for a Dream

[Mr. HokeyPokey]

My Life

My life - with michael Keaton... wow, After you see this i'm sure it'll be number 1 or 2 on anybody's list.

A close second is Leaving Las Vegas.... God that was depressing.

[ChemicalRomance]

Requiem for A Dream

My world felt like it was getting darker after I watched that, I had to go outside and get some air!

[MrCouch]

i wasnt a big reqium fan.

i chose million dollar baby.

[jaw2929]

Requiem, horribly dark and depressing... Sad too... :(

[jason statham]

In the list, requiem for a dream, but if someone wants to be really depressed, watch The War Zone, which is an excellent movie with brilliant acting and directing, but its so depressing it will leave you in that state for a week or so.

The Elephant Man (5/5) is one of my all time favorite film so it get my vote, followed tha up by Million Dollar Baby (5/5).

[morricone]

The Elephant Man

[drago25]

Requiem For A Dream for sure - the most emotionally impacting and depressing, and hardest to watch endings, of all time.
