If you loved Cat People, try Hardcore
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share

What Hardcore is
Downtown Los Angeles. Christmas week. A ringing phone. Jake Van Dorn arrives to claim his daughter, Kristen. She is not there. A private investigator leads him into the labyrinth of the San Fernando Valley's adult film industry. Schrader's grim, neon-lit descent mirrors his *Taxi Driver* milieu.
