A couple of people have mentioned Aronofsky's Requiem For A Dream to chase up. As well as the Kronos Quartet/Clint Mansell music (which is extremely effective in setting up a sense of inexorable movement (ie fate) throughout the film toward _that_ ending) the sound designer for the film was none other than Ken Ishii. You can hear his affinity with mangling and sequencing sounds all over the film. If anyone is interested I've talked further about this in a lecture/presentation I have in written form on my website (in the Opinions section) entitled "The Physical Reality of the Crossfader and Its Influence on Film Sound" Ishii's branching out from solo music production over the last five or so years has been really exciting; check out imdb.com for some of his other film work, or Rez, the PS2 game (that is really hard to find here!)
