Literally all Michael Haneke films.
> The Seventh Continent: A family of three slowly and concisely destroy their lives.
> Amour: An elderly couple gets their lives destroyed after the wife is diagnosed with cancer. At the end the husband smothers his wife with a pillow (mercy killing) and then kills himself
> Funny Games: 2 psychopaths play sadistic games with a rich bourgeois family. Watch the German original instead of that bhangi English remake.
Lars von Trier also makes some viscerally depressing stuff
> Dancer in the Dark: A mother (also a dancer) collects money for the treatment of her child, lest he goes blind from a genetic disease.
> Breaking the Waves: A paralyzed sailor, upon seeing that he can't satisfy his wife, allows her to have sex with the rapey, sadistic and hooliganistic pirates nearby. The result is hearbreakingly blunt and sad.
