Similar movies where....


a central character is a loner/misfit desperately searching for love/companionship but ends up losing it when rejected. The ending should be bleak and depressing.

Any suggestions?

"Did you know that Ted Bundy's first dog was a collie named Lassie?" - Patrick Bateman

Excision (2012)

Is basically that. Very similar to May. But with surgery.

Second the reco for Excision - it's got Traci Lords in it.

Hard Candy?

reply

excision is almost exactly like this! but diffrent of course. still amazing though

reply

Love Object is basically the gender bent version of May.

I strongly advice you to see the following movies

"Love Object" which is pretty similar and really really good from what I remember.

"Bad Boy Bubby" or Rubby..dont remember well. Its also kind of similar as it is kind of sick, you kind of root for Bubby who is mentally handicapped and you constantly think to yourself "Please dont *beep* up...please dont *beep* up...". Not really a horror movie but watch it.

Thanks Nikker, I've seen both of them. Bad Boy Bubby is an Australian classic!

I liked the concept of Love Object, but it just didn't do it for me because they should have cast a more unattractive actor to play the role of Kenneth (Desmond Harrington is too good looking, its doubtful such a handsome guy wouldn't be able to pull chicks regardless of his weirdo behavior).
