The Chaser (2008). It's Korean. I dare you to top it.
Requiem for a Dream
Although it isn't a movie and it is my favorite show, I find the overarching them of the Sopranos to be somewhat depressing, any thoughts?
Whenever I want to feel like complete shit I watch Sympathy for Mr Vengeance
The Sixth Sense
Awakenings
Mystic River
Changeling
The Hours
Grave of The Fireflies
El Orfanato

I thought The Pianist was quite depressing. I got my mate to watch all 6 Rocky films and in return I had to watch The Pianist and I think he got the better deal.
Kes.
Requiem for a Dream, Leaving Las Vegas, Lilja 4-Ever and Grave of the Fireflies.
I watched a Slovenian film called 'Call Girl' recently. Or Slovenian Call Girl - That was really depressive.
Requiem for a Dream is depressingly brilliant

Can't believe none of ye cnuts have agreed with my 'Kes' suggestion.
I don't think there's a more depressing flick in the history of cinema.
Apart from, maybe, any romantic comedy starring Gerard Butler.

Requiem for a Dream was the first that came to mind.
Also, Control, the film about the life of Ian Curtis from Joy Division. It's gut-wrenching by the end.

watership down!
Class though.
Good call. Very depressing film.
21 Grams

two movies were the theatre usher should kick you in the nuts before the movie starts in order to compensate the drama you are about to watch

2005 Champions league final DVD.
its just the way it lulls you into a false sense of joy and happiness before the depression starts.

sammy.There's a film called The Beautiful Country, definitely in with a shout if anyone's seen it.
it really annoyed me at the time for some reason. Usually the sign of a good movie.
The most recent one is The Road. That was some depressing shit.
Donnie Darko
Breaking the Waves
That's the one I was thinking of, just because I watched it the other day.
Although it does have a bittersweet ending in a way... But as for the rest of it... Brutal.
Passion of the Christ.
Good call.
Dancer in the Dark, another one by Lars von Trier is really depressing. Come to think of it many Scandinavian movies are quite depressing.
the boy in the striped pajamas
When the Wind Blows.
An elderly couple slowly die of radiation sickness. I still can't believe they showed this at my school.

I agree with Come and See (Idi i smotri), Kes, Breaking the Waves and When the Wind Blows.
I'd like to add Lilja 4-ever and The Pledge. They made me feel ill with despair, and I never want to see them again, although I think they were great films.
