Movie Suggestion

Sign in to disble this ad
Can anyone suggest a movie for me that's weird but not scary? Like Eternal Sunshine on the Spotless Mind. Something that just wraps around and you're confused like the whole time or like you really gotta know what's going on to understand the movie. Or maybe just something weird in general but not weird like, old kung fu movie weird.

Thanks in advance.

More funny than weird(definitely not scary), but I think you'll thank me: Dark Star or What's up, Tiger Lily?

I highly recommend the movie Brick if you have never seen it.

Check it out.

Eyes Wide Shut. A vastly underrated masterpiece.

+1 for Donnie Darko. I'll also suggest Southland Tales, which produced a great and glorious explosion of "***?" in my brain the first time I saw it.

The Science Of Sleep, Michel Gondry again, totally great!
Being John Malkovich, and I'm sure I'll think of more...

Jacob's ladder for me was also more weird & ***-provoking than straight scary.

Isn't it made clear in the end that she actually is- but he doesn't care?
