Funny Games (1997). This is the original which was then copied almost to a T in Haneke's American remake. At first glance this appears to be a mean and pointlessly violent movie, but then Haneke turns the tables on the viewer, forcing the viewer to take some responsibility. The acting was solid, the direction was incredible, and the message was profound. This is the one flick that Haneke formally admits to intentionally provoking the viewer, and he does so with aplomb. Ashe.
