Haven't watched it in years but it's a classic everyone should watch, absolutely gut wrenching. Some of it was later used in a Metallica music video bringing it back to notoriety somewhat.

La Grande Bouffe (1973) wikipedia
The film tells the story of four friends who gather in a villa for the weekend, with the express purpose of eating themselves to death.
Lost Highway (1997) wikipedia
A David Lynch film. I've not seen his 90s films but always meant to. After hearing of his illness, I figure now is as good a time as any
Meet the Feebles (wikipedia)
Released in 1989, this is an early-ish Peter Jackson movie (yes, the LOTR guy).
It's a lurid and disturbing backstage comedy of a troupe similar to The Muppet Show.
I watched it with one friend in the mid 90s who, when it ended, stood, turned to me, and said "It is possible to go too far" before leaving the room.
The Cremaster Cycle (wikipedia)
This is probably as pretentiously art house as you can get ... I've never seen it but always meant to. It's probably hard to get a hold of ... but I'm putting it here anyway
Blade (1998)
Various things have reminded me of this ... it came up in a community episode, the MCU version in development hell etc ... thought it might be interesting to revisit as a flavour that the MCU has definitely not explored
Dredd (2012)
"One of my favorite action movies"
Sneakers
A ‘hacking’ movie that holds up brilliantly despite outdated technology. Excellent cast, characters, story, and pacing IMO.
It appears to be on Disney+ AFAICT (I'm not subscribed).
Hermit: Monster Killer (2016) IMDB
A hilarious monster flick made on Sweden. With incredible special effects and a great performance by Borje Lundberg.
It's in Swedish, so you need to find the subtitles in English.
