Within this movie is a Chalie Kaufman-esque psychological thiller about a man metaphorically killing himself every time he's alone - and it's one of the best movies of all time. Jake Johnson screams at people over and over 'I can't be alone' which switches between being funny and slightly sickening. He is killed by images from his life, the films he sinks too much time into, the person he tried to be as a child, the reality TV star beloved…

Mean Creek 2004
Yeah to be fair that creek was pretty mean.

Maybe one day I'll manage to put…
