Could anyone who has seen and felt psychologically uncomfortable during Funny Games (1997) suggest similar films? My own suggestions are:

  • Midsommar (2019),
  • Eden Lake (2008),
  • Mother! (2017).

Requiem for a Dream gets kind of bleak..

Depressing, yes, among my all time favourite films. However, for me it's not psychologically tormenting like a claustrophobic person that goes spelunking.
