I love mind bending movies. Movies that make u think, that might be hard to understand, ambiguous, have a weird narrative structure, are outside the box, have a great twist, are nonlinear, etc.

Name some mind bending movies u like and let's talk about 'em.

Some that I've seen and liked

Donnie Darko
Coherence
Jacob's Ladder
Primer
The 13th Floor
Memento
What Dreams May Come
Eyes Wide Shut
Total Recall

Men in black.. the twist was-











































-the whole universe is in a marble.
 
Tarkovsky's films Stalker and Solyaris are both complex masterpieces
 
Random Indian action movies.

Mind bending.
 
But seriously, the wall? Phantasm? Crawl space? Mullholland drive?

Another vote for Mulholland Drive.

I'm not the type of douchey guy to go "/thread" after giving a suggestion, but if I was, this is the time I'd do it.

Since I haven't actually ended the thread though, I'll go ahead and give a second recommendation:


 
Enemy.

unfortunately i had the final (i think) shot spoiled by a gif i saw here on sherdog, but it still blew my mind and if i hadn't known it was coming it would have been even better.
 
I thought Prisoners was one of the better movies of the last ten years and not what I expected. Quite a mind-bender if you asked me.

So, a good starter list:

1. Frailty
2. Secret Window
3. Prisoners
4. The Ring
5. The Visit
6. Devil
7. Three Days Later
8. Surveillance
9. Lost Highway
10. Presumed Innocent
 
Existenz
Adaptation, or most Charlie Kaufman movies
 
That weird obscure one with Ryan Gosling that everyone on sherdog raves about. I haven't watched it. I think it's called 'Crazy Stupid Love'.
 
Netflix= Man VS, Circle, Would You Rather
 
These threads always depress me because they have the same exact answers and I've seen every one of them. I want new movies, damnit : (

My suggestion: Primer.

Extremely well made, and you can watch it 3x back to back and still not truly get it.

This is a movie I would give a perfect rating.
