E.T. I cried when E.T. had to go home :(

that and Captain Ron

I just watched Human Centipede 2 recently on Netflix and it made my stomach hurt. Terribly awful movie, though. lol

Another vote for Requiem...it's still hard for me to watch Ellen Burstyn in anything else and not think of her as Sara Goldfarb....even one of my favorite movies of all time, The Exorcist (another one that fucked me up pretty as a kid)

Rocky Horror Picture Show
I met my wife performing RHPS. The first time we met, she was Frankie and I was Rocky. The first time we performed as a couple, she was Janet and I was Rocky. Toucha Toucha Touch Me was extremely hot that night ;-) I even proposed to her onstage (a night she was playing Brad and I was playing...Rocky...must have been my golden undies...). At our wedding, Time Warp was the closing karaoke song, sung by all our fellow cast members.

hmmm
 

The last one that really effected me is Hearafter. Such a sad movie

pineapple express

antitrust

the sequel sucked though.

Another vote for What Dreams May Come. Very emotional ending that goes from the depths of despair to an uplifting notion of reincarnation and starting all over again. For anyone who's ever found their true soulmate in life (like I have)...the movie has quite an impact.

If we are strictly talking impact I would go with "Clockwork Orange". I was pretty young when it came out and it freaked me out. I enrolled in a gun safety course and got certified. Dad bought me a shotgun and kept it loaded in my bedroom. Since then I have always had a loaded gun in my bedroom. "Better to have a gun and never need it then to need one and not have it".
It still freaks me out till this day just thinking there are actually people like that walking this planet. Freaky!

I wouldn't say that it sucked, but it doesn't compare to the 1st one at all.

yes, nice movie...

for me if it was the "The Devil's Advocate", i tried to be less narcissic after this movie.

oh yes and there is also this movie with this guy that opened a web company to make p2p payment... i lost some money after this movie :/

Viddy well, little brother. Viddy well.

I'll have to go with Mulholland Drive. It was the first time I saw Naomi Watts in a movie, and she bared her fucking soul in that flick. I was thinking "who the hell is this girl?"

As far as giving me a physical emotional reaction, recently I saw Haachi, A Dog's Tale. It's about a dog who waits at the train station for years for his dead master to come home. Both me and my wife were wrecked after watching it. If you can get through that movie without crying, then you might be a zombie.

Yes, it was her "soul" that she bared...

As a dog lover, Hachi was very powerful and touching. Good pick. :thumbsup

"Brokeback Mountain". I use to enjoy camping...

Ok just because she bared her tits didn't mean the other 95% of her performance wasn't great.....

but that lesbo ho-down scene was some pretty sexy shit.

just watched Jaws the other day on one of the movie channels. It had just started and I had to watch the whole damn thing. I was thinking about how they don't make movies like Jaws or Poltergeist anymore. That night, I smoked up and watched Poltergeist, which is -- as far as I'm concerned --one of the only perfect movies ever made. I hadn't seen it since I was a kid, and had a new appreciation for some of the great filmmaking going on there.

The scene near the beginning with Craig T Nelson and Jobeth Williams smoking weed, and joking around before bed. You never see any scenes like that these days, with a movie couple acting like a real couple in a good, long scene.

The middle of the night scene where a few characters have a conversation in whispers. It goes on a long time, and it's all in whispers. When I think about it, it was pretty cool -- and another example of the difference in the way films were made then, even Blockbusters like Poltergeist. They weren't afraid to take their time and let a scene play out, because people didn't have the attention span of a fly back then.

The use of silence is great, especially before all hell breaks loose near the end.

Jobeth Williams overdid it a little, but she really seemed like a mom who was desperate and willing to anything in the world to get her daughter back.

One of the most iconic film images in my head is the scene of them kissing before she goes into the door with all the light. The cinematography, music and everything is perfect there.

Sorry, I had to geek out for a second about that movie. If there's anyone left on the planet who hasn't seen Poltergeist, then go watch it.

All About Lily Chou-Chou. Beautiful yet so sad.

Morph

Ah lol I read the OPs question as latest holloywood movie...

Not really sure about "affecting" me but will mention Punch-Drunk Love and Eternal Sunshine since in both I could relate to the main characters a lot.

That said, just thinking of movies that really stand out as affecting me, I'd have to go with something horror. I have to admit, not that I fly often but I certainly wasn't eager to for a while after Final Destination. Also, seeing The Omen as a kid freaked me out quite a bit and gave me nightmares.

The Matrix. Caused me to start questioning everything, including the nature of reality.

Terminator, because of the special effects that were like nothing I had ever seen before.

Yeah, In hindsight, I shouldn't have asked the question like that. I was looking for films that messed with peoples minds.

On a personal level, I was trying to avoid that masturbatory feeling I would get when going to movies like THE WARRIORS, THE ROAD WARRIOR, and SCARFACE when growing up. I was looking for films that messed with peoples minds.

Then came TRUE ROMANCE, and I discovered I still hadn't grown up, and then came GTA III and oops another boner :1orglaugh !

There are quite a variety of movies listed here, some really awesome ones I had forgotten about by the way.

Fight Club and the Matrix - Fight Club made me question myself and my motivations, what I do everyday and what I want from my life. Made me realize that "Keeping Up with the Jones' " was a useless and stupid endeavor.

Matrix made me question the world around me - my environment and how much "control" I really have over my life. I take very little at face value now because of this film.

don't know...
