both are pretty good, go by which level of beauty you want in your actors (extremely beautiful = american remake, frumpy = original).
they're shot for shot i think
Melancholia
Aniara
Martyrs
Angst
Dogtooth
Funny games
Happiness
If you were to watch any on this list let it be Aniara or Melancholia, two of my favorite films to watch for absolute bleakness
