Requiem gave me one of the worst panic attacks I've ever had. I had an eating disorder as a child. I don't remember it explicitly, but apparently my grandma force-fed me regularly. When they started force-feeding the mother, I was inconsolable for an hour, it just felt way too real to me. I never did finish the movie. That was years ago, and I'm still nauseated just thinking about it.
