Is the titillation of Hollywood production beyond you? No longer interested in just some basic European cinema? Looking for something new, unexplored, and uncharted? Well, then you are exactly in the right place, for we’ve rounded up the weirdest movies of all time that will check each of the boxes of good old kooky surrealist cinema.
We’ve already made a list dedicated to freaky movies, but weird movies fall into an entirely different category. If the freaky ones are often gory or violent, then these kooky gems will most definitely mess with your head, your eyes, or your perception of reality. These unique movies often rely on visual metaphors or hidden meanings, so they are also quite a heavy watch in their own right. No, they most likely will not make you cringe or cover your eyes, but they will nonetheless shake you to your core. And how could they not when you have such grand movies as The Holy Mountain and Inland Empire right at the top with less-known glorious black humor absurdities like Conspirators Of Pleasure or Sweet Movie a bit further down? I think we can agree that this selection will cater to the needs of even the most accomplished cinephile, and if it doesn’t - then add in the unique movies we’ve missed, would you?
So, the weirdest movies of all time are just a smidgen down below, as always. Vote for the surrealist films that tickled your fancy, and share this article with all the cinema connoisseurs that you know!
