Any other recommendations? Out of darkness is not available

“One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest” is set on a psych ward. It’s a really old movie that came out during the seventies. Another, really depressing depiction of the mental hospital in the early thirties is “The Changeling”. Only a small part of the movie is set in the mental hospital, but God, it is depressing.
