I second the recommendation of Calvaire, which I thought was terrific and the English title/translation of The Ordeal was extremely fitting – I call films like that (other examples could be The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and Wolf Creek) 'ordeal horrors' as they put the audience through the wringer, just as they do with the characters.
