Almost Blue posted:I'm looking for movies that are similar to River's Edge and Out of the Blue. Low-key, kind of anti-coming-of-age movies in small towns that are just sort of depressing. Fire Walk With Me might be another example, but it's more operatic than those two. The Last Picture Show

TrixRabbi posted:Specific request but what are some good films set in Berlin with musical or political themes. Thinking of stuff like Wings of Desire, Decoder, Christiane F., and Knife in the Head. Preferably from the 70s-80s but outside that era works too. Would Cabaret be too obvious?

Alfred P. Pseudonym posted:I’m looking for movies in which people “gently caress” remotely using weird future technology. Think Demolition Man, Ready Player One (not explicit, but implied with that force feedback suit), Her/Blade Runner 2049, Tammy and the T-Rex. Strange Days does count but warning it's a rape scene

WHY BONER NOW posted:I'm in the mood for a movie with scenes of absolute bedlam, like monsters eating/killing/dragging away people en masse If it doesn't specifically have to be monsters then High Rise is about civilisation collapsing and reverting to law of the jungle in a tower block

Gripweed posted:Speaking of which, I'd like to request recommendations for more stull like Southland Tales and Reconguista in G. Big sci-fi stories made with a very clear creative vision, full of detail, completely unafraid of confusing people, with a message or vibe the creator is desperately trying to get across to the audience. If it's widely hated or dismissed as being confusing or pretentious, that would be ideal. Zardoz

Tea Bone posted:I'm looking for more movies like The Man From Earth, which are essentially fantasy/sci-fi/horror bottle movies where we don't actually "see" anything fantastical, we just have to take someone's word for it. Doesn't quite fit your criteria but this was the original intent of Night of the Demon before the studio added scenes of the demon

magic cactus posted:I just re-watched Clean, Shaven for the first time in a couple of years and forgot how great it was. One of the things I really like is how it really focuses on sound and sound design to bring you deeper into its world. Does anyone have any other recommendations for movies where sound/sound design is used like this? Off the top of my head I can name Berberian Sound Studio and Sound of Metal, I'm optimistic about Flux Gourmet as well but I don't think that's out yet. David Lynch's stuff counts too, of course. Any other suggestions? Barton Fink

Jack B Nimble posted:I rewatched Aliens last night and I'm wondering what my other options are in the vein of "action horror sci fi". Off the top of my head I've seen Pitch Black, Pandorum, Screamers, Predator. Missing the sci-fi part but Dog Soliders felt very much in the vein of Aliens

To my great shame I had never seen one of Jackie Chan's Hong Kong films prior to watching Police Story which I loved. What else from that era is worth checking out besides the obvious Police Story sequels?

If you don't mind something a little less grounded in reality there's Terry Gilliam's Brazil
