Possession
Directed by Andrzej Żuławski
Banned upon its original release in 1981, Andrzej Żuławski’s stunning nightmare of a marriage unraveling is an experience unlike any other. Professional spy Mark returns to his West Berlin home to find his wife Anna insistent on a divorce. As Anna’s frenzied behavior becomes ever more alarming, Mark discovers a truth far more sinister than his wildest suspicions. With its pulsating score, visceral imagery, and some of the most haunting performances ever captured on screen, Possession is cinematic delirium at its most intoxicating.
This stunning nightmare of a marriage unraveling is a cinematic experience unlike any other.
Cast: Isabelle Adjani, Sam Neill

I love body horror. I was stressed out the whole time, but in the best way. this one has stuck with me’
This shit was fantastic
Inarguably one of the greatest movies in all of cinema, not just horror (as this is not just/exactly a horror movie). Does not explain itself easily, so probably not for those who need things to be literal. Lots of cool, subtle, easter eggs. I can see David Lynch fans enjoying this one. And the performances are nothing short of supernatural. This one is art, and very much one-of-a-kind.
Intensely great acting, slimy guy was spooky
Holy crap what a ride! Totally unique. There's nothing else like it.
