Possession
Directed by Andrzej Żuławski
Banned upon its original release in 1981, Andrzej Żuławski’s stunning nightmare of a marriage unraveling is an experience unlike any other. Professional spy Mark returns to his West Berlin home to find his wife Anna insistent on a divorce. As Anna’s frenzied behavior becomes ever more alarming, Mark discovers a truth far more sinister than his wildest suspicions. With its pulsating score, visceral imagery, and some of the most haunting performances ever captured on screen, Possession is cinematic delirium at its most intoxicating.
This stunning nightmare of a marriage unraveling is a cinematic experience unlike any other.
Cast: Isabelle Adjani, Sam Neill

So thrilled this movie is streaming on here. It's so bizarre and haunting and surreal. Definitely a maddening and confusing film to watch and I thoroughly enjoyed all of it. I totally get why a lot of people would hate this but I love strange horror movies and this is all kinds of strange.
Surreal, disturbing, hauntingly beautiful dissection of seperation, female rage, and identity.

A man's fears about marriage come to life in ghoulish agony.
Its like if Bergman's "Scenes From A Marriage" had a baby with Von Trier's "Anti Christ". Very surreal and powerful. However it does require media comprehension skills so its not for people looking for jump scares.
