Sausage Party
Disturbing because the cast, for example Salma Heyak, actually thought it was funny. It was shockingly bad.

The saw movies, I love those movies, but they were very unsettling when I first watched them

Some recommendations of mine are Lake Mungo, The Mothman Prophecies, and the French movie Martyrs. Really disturbing films.

Requiem for a Dream is one of those films that you’ll only watch one time. One time was more than enough. I can’t disassociate the main theme from the film, so it always freaks me out when I hear it in trailers or video games

Salo and Cannibal Holocaust are definitely on the list.
Also check out Grave of the Fireflies (1988). Not your traditional horror/thriller but a beautifully animated, extremely depressing film.

I know some disagree but The Blair Witch Project gave me chills. My friends and I even coined the phrase “The Blair Witch Chill” for that short tight-chest feeling when you think back over a movie.
