Have you ever tried the older film noir movies, especially those in b&w? I recently watched "Kiss Me Deadly" again, starring Ralph Meeker as Mickey Spillane's Mike Hammer. It's a brutal but fascinating film. In that category, I also would suggest:
This Gun for Hire~Alan Ladd and Veronica Lake
The Glass Key~Brian Donlevy and Alan Ladd
Kiss of Death~Victor Mature and Richard Widmark, who became a star because of his role in this film
Asphalt Jungle
On the Waterfront
Bad Day at Black Rock
Key Largo
Cape Fear~Gregory Peck and Robert Mitchum
Night of the Hunter
Big House, U.S.A.
Kansas City Confidential
The Sniper (1952)
Touch of Evil
The Departed is similar to GoodFellas.
For your mafia fix... Donnie Brasco.
If you like strange movies like Requiem... check out:
A Clockwork Orange, Irreversible (This film is not to be taken lightly. It's the most intense movie ever. If Requiem makes you feel like you're on drugs, irreversible makes you feel like you've been raped), Trainspotting, and check out Aranofsky's other films like Pi & The Fountain.
