Nightcrawler

Nightcrawler is a pulse-pounding thriller set in the nocturnal underbelly of contemporary Los Angeles. Jake Gyllenhaal stars as Lou Bloom, a driven young man desperate for work who discovers the high-speed world of L.A. crime journalism. Finding a group of freelance camera crews who film crashes, fires, murder and other mayhem, Lou muscles into the cut-throat, dangerous realm of nightcrawling -- where each police siren wail equals a possible windfall and victims are converted into dollars and cents. Aided by Rene Russo as Nina, a veteran of the blood-sport that is local TV news, Lou thrives. In the breakneck, ceaseless search for footage, he becomes the star of his own story. 

This was a well done creepy movie that wasn't technically scary.  It was creepy in the sense that there was just something seriously off with Jake Gyllenthal's character.  His delivery, mannerisms and decision making process were all disturbing on so many levels.  The performance was so good that you basically couldn't take your eyes off him no matter what he was doing on the screen.

I would definitely recommend people checking this one out.  It's a great psychological thriller and Jake Gyllenthal's performance was Oscar worthy.
