 I really enjoyed Andrzej Zulawski's Possession and found it to be similar to Polanski's Apartment trilogy in that the tension mounts to a nightmarish point before unleashing utter insanity on you. Sam Neill gives a laughably histrionic performance and Isabelle Adjani is just gorgeous!

Avoid the 80-minute version and look for the 2 hour uncut version.

I've been asking for these for a while, but: Can anyone suggest me some Docudramas?
Sci-fi, horror, or thriller docudramas.

Let me clarify on this. I'm not talking found-footage, because found footage tend to be very raw, mimicking an unedited format.

I'm talking docudrama, where there's an awareness to the editing. Basically a mockumentary, but not played for laughs or irony. A film that uses the narrative structure of a documentary, which will then include found-footage or interview footage within it's structure.

I know that's a bit specific, but I really love these.

Hmmm how about Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon? or the way Pontypool is filmed might appeal to you. Both are firmly in the horror genre.
