Wiki.
Funny Games is a 1997 Austrian satirical psychological thriller film written and directed by Michael Haneke, and starring Susanne Lothar, Ulrich Mühe, and Arno Frisch. The plot involves two young men who hold a family hostage in their vacation home and torture them with sadistic games.
The film was entered into the 1997 Cannes Film Festival, where it generated controversy among both critics and audiences for its depiction of graphic violence and torture.
A shot-for-shot remake, filmed and set in the United States, was released in 2007, also directed by Haneke, this time with an English-speaking cast and a mostly American crew.
