In the shadows
I feel like watching a good movie, the kind of movie that would best suit the category of "mindfucking".
Here are some of the smartest and coolest movies I've seen, and can remember:


- Mulholland Drive
- Layer Cake
- Revolver
- Clockwork Orange
- Sleuth ( 1972 )
- Waking Life
- The usual suspects

Do share your movie knowledge and recommendations, sirs!
 


Mulholland Drive was just crazy.

Inception was a total mind fuck. Matrix too when it first came out before the shitty sequels.
 
Btw, this documentary is brilliant. It's about never being satisfied and always striving to reach perfection.

I wouldn't call them all mindfucking, but they are somewhere in the realm.

Brazil - Top choice, almost a mixture of 1984 and Catch-22 with a sprinkle of Brave New World. One of my favorite films.


Boys from Brazil
Strangers on a Train
Primal Fear
Thank You for Smoking
A Beautiful Mind
Dark City
Twilight
12 Monkeys
Pi
Natural Born Killers
Planet Earth series on Bluray while high (fucks my mind every time).

Edit:

Soylent Green
Gattaca
Blade Runner

Oh an another vote for Primer I've watched it at least 5 times and even with the timeline I still feel like I can't always follow..
 
Old Boy
Donnie Darko
The El Bulli documentary
The Saint (probably my favorite val kilmer movie)
Ran
Kagemusha

I have a real thing for foreign films these days, especially asian films.
