Daaaaaalí! (2023)


An ambitious young journalist attempts to collaborate with surrealist artist Salvador Dalí on a documentary project that never quite comes to fruition. 
Quentin Dupeiux is a love-it or hate-it filmmaker, but you have to admit, he’s making movies that other people aren't. This one doesn't quite add up in any meaningful way, but it earns points for originality and what-the-fuckery.

Rubber (2011)

A very, very weird movie that would only appeal to people who post on a blog such as this. The fourth wall is broken throughout this movie, which lends to its charm and general oddness. Essentially a movie about a tire gaining sentience and killing whatever stands in its way, the novelty eventually becomes a little "tired" by the third act (is there even a third act?). Still, it's not everyday you get to tell people you just watched that movie about "the tire with telekinetic powers."
