I’ve gotta say “The Road” is probably the single most depressing movie I’ve ever seen.

It’s “Animal House” compared to “Melancholia”. But the final end of the world scene is pretty cool.

I dunno....”A Boy And His Dog” had me reaching for the straight razor.

[but that might’ve just been because of Don Johnson]

;D

Utter despair from beginning to end.

Hahahahahahaha...more depressing than The Piano or The Hours?

My brother and I both got shanghaied to see it, and later as we talked, I said "Man, when that woman gets dragged down by that piano at the end of the rope, I just wanted to pump my fist and say "Thank GOD!"

My brother said "Yeah! It was like in that movie The Hours when the woman committed suicide by drowning herself and bumped on down the stream, I wanted to jump out of my seat and go "YES!"

Heh, my other brother had even worse. He had to go see "Autumn in New York" with his wife!

/evil grin

I found the movie “On The Beach (1959)” very depressing, to the point it gave me nightmares.
