I LOVE movies like this and I think that the artistic nature and beauty even though it is disturbing entwines with surreal plots and makes a masterpiece. 'Excision' Was amazing and it went there other movies I can think off the top of my head reminiscent of this film are of course 'May' which I have seen others mention, but if you loved this and May I highly suggest 'Alyce'. Alyce is one of my all time favorite horror movies as well as May and 'Excision' now. If I think of any others I will post them, but it really is difficult to find amazing artistic horror films that actually have more than just "scare" quality, but something that stays with you as well as the quirky humor that ties so well. If anyone can think of any as well let me know. Also Ginger Snaps is also awesome but I was trying to stay in the same vein LOL.

You should check out American Mary http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1959332/ Maybe not really the same but in the same vein.

Yeah may came to mind straight away. American Mary as the poster above suggested is also very good. French film martyrs is also very very good I definitely recommend that.

Sublime comes to mind. Martyrs was 9000 times better than this, I would say.

I can recommend "We need to talk about Kevin".

[–] Myusersnameiscoolokay 9 years ago

I'll second this. We Need to Talk About Kevin is so good too. It was originally a book, so it takes your fancy, you can totally nerd out on it some more. I think it has a similar vibe.

Plus, this list will be useful to you if you want to watch similar 'disturbing' flicks: http://www.borrowingtape.com/top-200-most-disturbing-movies

I recommend that you check out Mientras duermes - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1437358/?ref_=sr_1.
Whereas the plot is completely different, the atmosphere is rather similar. It's best watched without any prior knowledge of the plot - just be prepared for a dark and disturbing experience.

You should check out "Grace" with Jordan Ladd.

That Excision is mentioned in the same sentence is high praise indeed, and it deserves to be as well.

I'll second the recommendation for Grace.

The Spike

May (2002)

Didn't really think of it while watching it, but the original Carrie is similar to this movie. It's got the outcast weirdo girl, the antagonistic mom, and the mean high school kids. It's a little less grounded in reality, unless you believe in the existence of telekinetic people.

Second Carrie (and remake).
Also would like to add Pretty Persuasion, which although is not horror, or bloody, has a similar feel to it when watching. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0381505/?ref_=nv_sr_1
If it's blood you're after, Long Pigs is about a cannibalistic serial killer; http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0971204/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1

Those are your emotions acting without the benefit of intellect.
