Psychologically uncomfortable films like Funny Games (1997) Discussion Recommendation (piefed.social)

Could anyone who has seen and felt psychologically uncomfortable during Funny Games (1997) suggest similar films? My own suggestions are:

Midsommar (2019),
Eden Lake (2008),
Mother! (2017).

Good film. Not really uncomfortable psychologically, but definitely gastronomically. Ugh. The analogy with consumerism is spot on. Thanks again for both suggestions.
