It's probably redundant to say this, but Fight Club (Ed's other big thought provoking movie) is really really really good.

And sort of on the same psych out page as Fight Club, Donnie Darko is the sh!t. Donnie Darko is a kid who gets diagnosed as being a schizophrenic; he sleepwalks, and recieves prophecies of the future from a giant, demonic bunny rabbit named "Frank." I know that sounds stupid, but, it is one of the most thought provoking, sinister films I've ever seen. The ending is sad as hell, and you are alternately freaked out and knocked flat laughing as things start to happen that make you question whether Donnie is really insane or not. Patrick Swayze starts as a self help guru; it's frickin hilarious. It takes a good 3 or 4 watches before it totally makes sense.

Donnie Darko is possibly the most brillian movie I have ever seen

not many people seem to know about it though, its a shame because it is absolutely mind blowng

History X is really good too, especially the prison rape scene
