- DirectorDenis VilleneuveStarsJake GyllenhaalMélanie LaurentSarah GadonA man seeks out his exact look-alike after spotting him in a movie.AAAAIIIEEEEEEE the spiders represent totalitarianism and suppression or some *beep* idk
- DirectorShane CarruthStarsAmy SeimetzFrank MosleyShane CarruthA man and woman are drawn together, entangled in the life cycle of an ageless organism. Identity becomes an illusion as they struggle to assemble the loose fragments of wrecked lives.i still don't really get what happened. The films method of storytelling makes the plot seem more cryptic than it actually is. will make you fear contracting ringworm
- DirectorStanley KubrickStarsKeir DulleaGary LockwoodWilliam SylvesterAfter uncovering a mysterious artifact buried beneath the Lunar surface, a spacecraft is sent to Jupiter to find its origins: a spacecraft manned by two men and the supercomputer HAL 9000.sorta strange with long cinematic pauses but its a classic
- DirectorJimmy ScreamerClauzStarsJ.D. BrownBrandon SlagleDevanny PinnA charismatic leader named Caine demands obedience from the citizens of a town named "Heaven". The town is at peace until two children break his greatest rule: Never venture beyond the town's walls.excluding its predecessor Where The Dead Go To Die, the worst animated (if you can call it that) film to disgrace the internet. you will be legitimately disturbed. you will never want to question life outside of mainstream society ever again. If youre a God-fearing Christian, move along. Or if you enjoy overly-satirical anti-religious "metaphors", hyper-violence and warped sexuality... seek help immediately
- DirectorRichard AyoadeStarsJesse EisenbergMia WasikowskaWallace ShawnThe unenviable life of a government-agency clerk takes a horrific turn with the arrival of a new co-worker who is both his exact physical double and his opposite otherwise--he's a confident, charismatic ladies' man.weird and quirky in the most fantastic way, beautifully dreary cinematography, an eerie soundscape makes the viewer constantly uneasy, i guess that's why so few like it. but its sense of humour really hits the nail on the head for me. Bravo, Richard Ayoade!
- DirectorRichard AyoadeStarsCraig RobertsSally HawkinsPaddy Considine15-year-old Oliver Tate has two objectives: to lose his virginity before his next birthday, and to extinguish the flame between his mother and an ex-lover who has resurfaced in her life.bizarre pacing but the writing is another testament to Ayoade's brilliance. the abrupt jump cuts and music between acts will probably unintentionally jumpscare you. also Alex Turner does the score! Bonus points!
- DirectorRichard LinklaterStarsKeanu ReevesWinona RyderRobert Downey Jr.An undercover cop in a not-too-distant future becomes involved with a dangerous new drug and begins to lose his own identity as a result.paranoid junkies spewing drug-fueled hysteria, all wrapped up in visually stunning, and very apt, psychedelic rotoscope animation. With such a star-studded cast, high animation budget, and story faithfully based off of a critically acclaimed sci-fi novel, its a mystery how this movie flew so low under the radar.
- DirectorEli RothStarsKeanu ReevesLorenza IzzoAna de ArmasA devoted husband and father helps two stranded young women who knock on his door, but his kind gesture turns into a dangerous seduction and a deadly game of cat and mouse.posing as a crappy but fun-to-watch b-movie thriller, it's actually basically a softcore porno/fetish film. Keanu Reeves' monotone acting makes it somewhat laughable. don't watch sober, or better yet don't watch at all!!
- DirectorGore VerbinskiStarsDane DeHaanJason IsaacsMia GothAn ambitious young executive is sent to retrieve his company's CEO from an idyllic but mysterious "wellness center" at a remote location in the Swiss Alps, but soon suspects that the spa's treatments are not what they seem.if you enjoy eels, old naked people, weirdly specific teeth-oriented body horror, girls without eyebrows, and Dane Dehaan being a pale, disabled and confused chicken nugget then this movie is probably for you, you weirdo. visually stunning, but kinda ruined by a hokey ending.
- DirectorYorgos LanthimosStarsBarry G. BernsonHerb CaillouetBill CampSteven, a charismatic surgeon, is forced to make an unthinkable sacrifice after his life starts to fall apart, when the behavior of a teenage boy he has taken under his wing turns sinister.what's even eerier is that this kid reminds me of someone i know and now i fear bleeding from my eyes if i ever wrong him
- DirectorNicolas Winding RefnStarsRyan GoslingKristin Scott ThomasVithaya PansringarmJulian, a drug-smuggler thriving in Bangkok's criminal underworld, sees his life get even more complicated when his mother compels him to find and kill whoever is responsible for his brother's recent death.BLOODY NEON PORNO KITSCH. 70% people walking and turning around dramatically slow, 20% Ryan Gosling clenching his fists while looking sad, 10% convoluted imagery. All under fancy red lights.
- DirectorDaniel KwanDaniel ScheinertStarsPaul DanoDaniel RadcliffeMary Elizabeth WinsteadA hopeless man stranded on a deserted island befriends a dead body, and together they go on a surreal journey to get home.farts/toilet humour have never been more effective. so unique but so bloody odd
- DirectorRichard LinklaterStarsEthan HawkeTrevor Jack BrooksLorelei LinklaterA man shuffles through a dream meeting various people and discussing the meanings and purposes of the universe.i dont understand what theyre saying or what im looking at help!
- DirectorDarren AronofskyStarsJennifer LawrenceJavier BardemEd HarrisA couple's relationship is tested when uninvited guests arrive at their home, disrupting their tranquil existence.i watch a lot of weird shit but baby eating is where i draw the line. Distasteful garbage with no point but to shove another cliche PSA down your throat
- DirectorGaspar NoéStarsNathaniel BrownPaz de la HuertaCyril RoyAn American drug dealer living in Tokyo is betrayed by his best friend and killed in a drug deal. His soul, observing the repercussions of his death, seeks resurrection.Just the beginning credits alone are enough to send you into epileptic shock
- DirectorJohn DuiganStarsSam RockwellKathleen QuinlanMischa BartonWhen Devon, a 10-year-old girl, forges a friendship with Trent, a 21-year-old outsider who mows the neighborhood lawns, things suddenly get very complicated and private.An art-house film that dangles on on the cusp of weirdness and fantasy. It's normal enough but just subtly weird enough to be extremely unsettling.
- DirectorMichael SpierigPeter SpierigStarsEthan HawkeSarah SnookNoah TaylorAs his last assignment, a temporal agent is tasked to travel back in time and prevent a bomb attack in New York in 1975. The hunt, however, turns out to be beyond the bounds of possibility.https://proxy.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fpics.onsizzle.com%2Fgee-bill-how-come-your-mom-lets-you-eat-two-10306045.png&f=1
