Requiem for a dream
Serial Experiments Lain
Eraserhead
EXistenZ - The final question "Are we still in the game?" really summarized the first watch experience. You have no clue what's going on anymore by that point. Same goes for Total Recall by the way - that movie also has you guessing what's real and what isn't throughout 90% of the runtime.
Everything everywhere all at once, but in a good way
The Lighthouse. I still don't know what the hell happened.
Dark City
2014 Predestination, you can't really say anything about this film and not spoil it. well perhaps except Ethan Hawke and Sarah Snook starring in it
It's based on Robert Heinleins - All You Zombies. I think.
And I'd say is one of the more faithful adaptations of a short sf story to film. There are a couple of additions, but in general is extremely close.
Dogville from 2003
Black mirror.
Spun
Films super wild, also Brittany Murphy's last role as well.
Edit: Altered States is another WTF movie.
Beau is Afraid is absolutely mental. I had no idea what to expect when we went to see it, and I’m so thankful the cinema was empty so we could audibly talk about wtf was going on throughout. It’s definitely a movie I want people to watch but with the caveat that I’m not recommending it.
I absolutely loved Beau is Afraid, but yeah that last act was a trip. It reminded me of "Men". The ending of that is just pure WTF.
The penis monster haunts my dreams! The whole movie was a trip and I absolutely loved the insanity of the first act, but the last 30 odd minutes were just mental
Crash. It was the first and only movie I nearly walked out on.
Which Crash? 1996 or 2004?
Midsommer
This movie disturbed me for days. What the actual fuck did I watch??
Yeah, I was surprised nobody mentioned it before me. I think part of it is how they ease you into it.
You go from thinking "oh this is some nice cinematography, seems like they'll do some interesting character development" to suddenly realizing... well I'm not even sure how to explain it. It gets weird.
