Requiem for a dream
I just watched Neon Genesis Evangellion. WTF at the end of the series. Then saw there was a later movie with the "real" end. Which was also WTF.
Literally the first thing on my mind when I saw this thread! I needed some time to process what happened after seeing End of Evangelion.
Neon Genesis Evangelion: The End of Evangelion. It was a one weird rollercoaster ride. I still can't understand the movie too.
All I know about EoE:
Top tier soundtrack
"Disgusting"
"We'll do the rest later"
"I'm so fucked up"
Birds are metal
Giant eyepussy
Tang
Your mom protected you by hanging a doll she thought was you.
Domestic violence
Delete world to hit one last time
Did I miss anything?
The Lighthouse. I still don't know what the hell happened.
Sorry To Bother You was a wild fucking ride. Definitely watch it high for maximum wtf
Zardoz. The gaint floating head with the crazy man inside shouting "the gun is good, the penis is bad," Sean Connery in a WAY too revealing outfit, the bizarre, apathetic, immortal poeple, and wierd pyramid magic.
It was hands down the most strange, unfathomable film I've ever seen, and I've watched The Dancing Outlaw.
I remember once when I was a teenager turning on the TV at like 2 in the morning on a Saturday and being treated to Adult Swim's Sealab 2021 for the first time. Along with the rest of their line up around 1999-2003. It was fucking weird as shit. But hilarious.
Everything everywhere all at once, but in a good way
everything everywhere all at once
Mulholland Drive.
Trust me on this...just put all technology away when you watch this and give it your 100% attention. One of the craziest movies I've ever seen.
I recently watched Pee-wee's Big Adventure for the first time since God knows how long and it feels like a little bit of a drug trip at times with the sometimes sporadic pacing and just how it is as a movie.
The Room (2003) is without exaggeration the worst movie ever made. It's so bad that you can't even enjoy it ironically. Someone else made a much better movie (The Disaster Artist) about how The Room ever got made in the first place. Because that will be the first question on your mind after watching it.
Beau is Afraid is absolutely mental. I had no idea what to expect when we went to see it, and Iβm so thankful the cinema was empty so we could audibly talk about wtf was going on throughout. Itβs definitely a movie I want people to watch but with the caveat that Iβm not recommending it.
Primer. This has to be one of my favorite WTF movies I have watched. Required multiple watches to understand.
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.
Rubber. I went in knowing it was a WTF film, but had NO idea how far out it was. It made Sharknado make sense by comparison.
"Under The Skin" with Scarlet Johansson. It has easily the most low-key terrifying scene I've ever seen in a movie (the beach scene). And the whole film is the very definition of wtf.
Tenet
What?
Gummo
Beau is afraid , it was WTF from the start untill the end, still don't know what it was and I am too afraid to ask.
Serbian film. I genuinely regret watching it and I think everyone involved in creating it should be investigated.
Unicorn Warsβ¦ itβs a French/Spanish animation movie about a βcarebearβ v unicorns war. Itβs like full metal jacket, but much more brutal and bizarreβ¦.
Almost every episode of Raised By Wolves, especially the second season when things got REAL bonkers. Man, I miss that show.
Punch Drunk Love. Seriously what was this about?
The Who's Tommy Pinball Wizard. I was expecting some cool music, and pinball. Maybe something like The Wall. Nope, What I got was Uncle Eddy and the Acid Queen.
