Hi,

Tigersoap mentionned this movie in a post, and I think it deserves its own thread ! It's actually one of the few movies that features a realistic psychopath.

Wikpedia said:
Apartment concierge Cesar (Luis Tosar) is a miserable person who believes he was born without the ability to be happy. As a result, he decides his mission is to make life hell for everyone around him. A majority of the tenants are easy to agitate, but Clara (Marta Etura) proves to be harder than the most. So Cesar goes to creepy extremes to make this young woman mentally breakdown. Things get even more complicated in this twisted relationship when her boyfriend, Marcos (Alberto San Juan), shows up.

The movie itself is pretty good, quite creepy, and as I wrote above, the depiction of the main character is worth mentioning.

Enjoy !
 
Under my humble point of vue, this is an horror movie more than a study about psychopathy. The director,Jaume Balagueró is maybe the best specialist about horror in cinema. He is very known by his famous movie REC, a zombie story and very gore. All his movies produce terror in the mind of the viewer. One terrific movie by him is "To rent", a story about a couple who is looking an apartment to rent. He is a good director in this genre but all his movies are disturbing and very, extremely manipulative. You are, as a spectator, like in a prison, the mad prison of the director, of the story, of the characters in the movie and unable to free and exit.

It is a genre, very popular but very, very disturbing. Some of his movies are about spirits, possessions...
