zankoku:
I am mainly a horror buff, and I also am a fan of Takeshi Miike, so my picks reflect these facts.

Fudoh
One Missed Call
Ichi The Killer
Azumi
Audition
Dark Water
Suicide Circle
Stacy
Sky High
Evil Dead Trap, of course
Ju-on
The Eye
Tomie
A Tale of Two Sisters
Shutter
Any Dario Argento films

Just a short list, lots of old stuff.

Goroshi-sama:
if you people like true life storys (or in this case true life experiment test) and psychology then you must see Das Experiment..

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Das_Experiment

I wrote an essay (and got full points :P) of it when we discussed it's theory on psychologys class.. And whats the cool thing about is that it is based on true story...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanford_Prison_Experiment

however there is american remake of it, so it might be possible that you guys have already seen it :S

Other some good movies that I recommend: (finnish movies..)

Kummeli: Gold Fever (really good comedy and if you want to laugh a lot! :D im sure it can be find somewhere

Morgia:
Watched "Keinohrhasen" with english subtitles (rabbitwithoutears) not so long ago... it was hilarious ^^ It's about a reporter who has to do social work in a Kindergarten in order to not get into jail. The woman who runs the Kindergarten that was chosen for his penalty though knows him from childhood... they went into the same class in school and back then he ridiculed her in front of the whole class. Now she plans her revenge.

other nice ones (although not entirely comedic):
La vita e bella (Life is beautiful): a tragicomic italian film about a jew that is sent into a KZ with his son and in order to make it bearable for the boy he pretends it's all a gameshow

Wer früher stirbt ist länger tot (Who dies first is longer dead): a mortally comical bavarian film about a boy in a small mountain village whose mother died at his birth and starts to believe that he murdered his mother, so he tries to find a new wife for his dad.

I second "das Experiment"

shabutie:
