There is something really comfy about a power plant or industrial stuff in general all lit up at night.
The beginning of Blackhat and also A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night come to mind but I cant think of anything else

Nightcore is my favorite genre
>>71463370
The whole nightly darkness combined with ambience gives it a dreamlike feel, like your relaxed and asleep but still going on a strange adventure in your dreams.
Batman V Superman pulls off the transition to night time really well..
Nightwatch.
its slav as fuck horror
Does prisoners count?
>no Before Sunrise
What the fuck?
>ctrl+f "Constantine"
>0 results
You can add Neon Demon to this list
>>71425469
>Anyway, it's almost 3AM, I gotta sleep (seeing Neon Demon tomorrow)
How was The Neon Demon?
Kontroll takes place entirely in a subway and it feels like night regardless of the time
>>71463370
>>71463676
I can almost hear the industrial drone. The soft lighting also gives it a warm, comfy ambiance.
Something about the city at night really gets me going. Too bad most films about life in the city are the shitty indie or woody allen type films. Im looking for a film about hardcore depression and lonliness
Posting this as per thread custom.

It was fucking weeeeird. Every once in a while I'd look at my friend (who'd seen it before) and be like "What the fuck, man?".
It's aesthetic as fuck though, and just about everything leading up to Jesse triforcing is fantastic.
When it gets to the eating people and necrophilia I got freaked the fuck out, and I usually love gore.
I still don't know how I feel about it but that's my thoughts in a nutshell.
Bad Lieutenant (the Abel Ferrara one, not the Werner Herzog one)
Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer
Bullet Ballet
A Snake of June

>>71463864
Alright, they're going on.
>>71463970
You sound immature.
>>71464005
I am, and I'll own up to that.
Doesn't mean we can't have a good thread.
>>71463880
i just got back from it.
most visually stunning movie i've ever seen. music was some of the best ever. that's all i'll say. but yeha, the visuals literally have made me feel nightcore as fuck for like 3 hours now.
>>71462863
shit man Locke was awesome. still shocked by that
>>71463657
>>71464004
And these
>>71464081
Got it all on.
Pretty much every night core has been listed and I don't know how else to contribute so here's a bump
even when it's fake, king kino reigns supreme
>>71464092
Seen it twice already.
Cult classic for sure. Nice to see Refn refining down that oppressive visual style he adopted with OGF
Is La Haine nightcore?
Takes place mostly during the day on shitty greenscreens but the night time cyberpunk parts of Babylon AD were pretty cool. Rest of movie is shit
The Others
Someone brought up warm power plant lights as comfy at night and I agree, but doesn't anyone else love harsh white lights? Like you're driving along a dark road and you come across a gas station, or a convenience with piercing lights. There's something so comfy and comforting about that to me. Imagine being tired and just curling up inside with hot coffee and listening to the chatter of a few late night customers
>>71464370
Yes. It follows the characters in quasi real time. iirc most of the second half of the film is at night
>>71464502
They tried to make a Gotham City crossed with Blade Runner

is this /nightcore/?
>>71464502
Never heard of it. But if it's anything like this poster, I'm interested.
>>71464542
Somehow La Haine really resonates with me. It really catches the vibe of me growing up as a young urban European youth.
>>71464584
>Chinese
>no machetes
sure

THIS IS THE EPITOME OF COMFY NOSTALGIC NIGHTCORE
>>71463896
anon please if you find any films that fit these criteria don't forgot to share them here
>>71463897
>tfw I made this, but fucked up the position of Night and the City
is there a film which captures that 'raw' nightcore feel? i was thinking something like a nightcore version of koyaaanisqatsi
>>71465094
neon demon does visually/music. its fucking awesome.
Big Trouble in Little China
Gargoyles (1972)
Johnny mnemonic
The Addiction
Miami Vice (fuck the haters, i wanted a sequel, directed by BASED Michael Mann)
Guys, I think the thing is, nightcore hasnt yet been mastered
The nightcore magnum opus hasnt been made.
We have to make it
>>71465316
Fucking truth.
What would it consist of though? I mean Neon Demon got close but Nightcore needs something else.
>>71465374
neon demon is so fucking close it's so fucking good goddamn im gonna go see it in theaters again tomorrow uisgfhiouhfdsiogu ndsfouig jndfspiagn epdiogn ieghe
>>71465374
Basically like vaporwave the movie
Full throttle (1995)
Disturbia
Tron Legacy
The girl on the bridge
>>71462863
City of lost children
Kafka
Equals, the new Drake Doremus pic, is pretty nightcore in aesthetic.
JUST
>>71466560
i like this
>>71466744
It's extremely derivative in plot/setting, but the acting and direction are seriously great.
>>71466560
That's that one that kinda sounds like Equilibrium right?
>>71466810
It's similar, but not an action movie. More like a direct remake of THX 1138.
Mikey and Nicky
John Cassavetes and Peter Falk wander around their town all night. It's great.
Also, directed by Cassavetes, The Killing of a Chinese Bookie.
>>71467052
pic related
>>71467052
Sounds right up my alley.
>>71467140
It's probably one of the best films about male friendship I've ever seen. Also, Master and Commander, but that's not nightcore. It's similar to Cassavetes other films but it's not directed by him. Definitely check it out.
This movie takes mostly at night and some during day. But the daytime scenes are still pretty dimly lit.
>>71462863
ghost in the shell
Warriors
>>71462863
My suggestions made your list, cool
Can an hero happily now, knowing this is the apex of my existence
It's been real, guys :)
is this the face of nightcore?
This is great, ive had recurring dreams about urban gauntlet situations all my life, and they are thrilling...
Would really recommend watching this half hour doc about a guy who goes exploring tunnels and bridges of New York at night...
UNDERCITY
https://vimeo.com/18280328
Other movies off the top of my head...
Judgement Night
Cruising
The People Under the Stairs
Does The Ninth Gate count? There are daytime scenes, but the majority of the film takes place at night.
>>71462863
Nice thread
I'd include pic related to the list. Overall a pretty decent, atmospheric film.
>>71470749
That looks sweet, thanks for sharing
>>71470866
Caught this on IFC one night thinking it was some indie art-porn film based on the title.
Surprisingly enjoyable. First time I've seen it discussed on /tv/, nice.
