Have only seen Kill List, of those - here's a few that come to mind based on. Dead Man's Shoes is in a roughly similar self-destructive vengeance vein, also sharing the downbeat English setting, though it's far less ghoulish in tone. More contemplative. Definitely worth a look. Blue Ruin is another strong movie of this sort, an American small-town revenge story with an utterly determined yet incompetent and afraid protagonist. Terrifying at points, with a very believable main character.

I also love A Field In England, by Ben Wheatley (Kill List) and starring his regular collaborator Michael Smiley (same), though it's not for everyone. Motley band of fuckwits and/or alchemists desert the English civil war to dig for treasure in the eponymous field full of shrooms. Strange things happen, pending mortal blast via birth of new planet an on/off concern. Raucous, unnerving, emotive shroom-addled tumble. Recommended if you can dig Monty Python, The League of Gentlemen and other knowingly silly English comedy, and don't mind (or better yet, appreciate) a dirge-slow, doomy pace. Best watched at night with good company, a few beers and the sound up.

Again from Wheatley/Smiley, council estate crime family drama Down Terrace doesn't share the surrealism or revenge elements of KL but again it's charmingly low-fi and packs some nasty impacts with a good helping of black humour.
