14) The House That Jack Built (2018)
Trending
The film digs into the mind of a killer and refuses to soften the details. The House That Jack Built by Lars von Trier, released in 2018, follows Jack, a serial killer who recounts his crimes as if they were works of art. The “WTH” moment happens during a scene where he kills a family and arranges their bodies to create a disturbing tableau. The film forces viewers to sit with Jack’s thoughts as he rationalizes his actions and treats murder as a form of self-expression. It’s unsettling because it doesn’t try to justify or explain Jack. Instead, it forces audiences to observe his depravity without looking away. The film became iconic because it uses brutality and philosophy to explore the blurred line between art and violence, leaving viewers disturbed and conflicted.
