    daaamn you didnt think it was a trippy movie!!
    I watched it for the first time frying pretty hard on some very good lsd and that movie is great.

    to those that like david lynch, i saw muhollund drive and thought it was just really boring and dumb, not very perplexing, it seemed more cheap and lacking substance.
    Do you think eraserhead is worth watching given that?

    Here is some movies i knew noone would say.

    The holy mountain and el topo by Alejandro Jodorowsky
    El topo trailer

    I first saw PI back in february, and it is probably my favorite movie now. Not many people seem to have seen it though.

    Clockwork Orange
    Vanilla Sky
    Donnie Darko

    Yeah Vanilla Sky was a hella mind-fuck. I like Requiem a lot too but I feel like shit every time I finish that movie.

    Anyone ever see any of the Animusic DVDs? They probably don't qualify, but they're trippy as fuck.

    Besides that, the only ones I havent seen mentioned yet are Todd Solondz movies. Palindromes or Happiness, not sure which I prefer.

    Oh, and anything by John Waters always throws me for a loop.

    EDIT: Delicatessen/City of Lost Children/Dark City are also pretty messed up.

    I guess I'm going to have to go back and watch Spotless Mind again. I didnt think that was a mind fuck movie.

    I'll add to the list Primer; two engineers stumble upon the side effects of their creation and the ethical implications therein. Very good but very hard to follow the first viewing.

    Manic, i made some friends watch the beginning on acid and they were all freaking out, i love that scene. "Mom tell em im not crazy, im not crazy, were are you taking me, im not crazy" as they take him away to the insane asylum. i really relate to that character because when i first got locked up i looked the same, with the same personality, down to the sidburns and everything.

    yeh this movie really fucked my mind for about an hour afterwards, it was just so weird and confusing and there is the 'what the fuck factor' aswell which did it.

    Un Chien Andalou which was odd to say the least.
    Eraserhead I don't even have to explain why.
    Manhunter was really disturbing.
    My Bloody Valentine was quite bad, I know. But it has a twist that I didn't see coming.

    i've seen almost all of the movies that have been listed here, i can't say any of them "mind fucked" me too badly. three recent movies have 'hooked' into me. i've known alot, of people who have been freaked out big time by them, they are: "the quite," "vistor q," and "jack ketchum's the girl next door." what can i say? these movies show us for what we really are. of course, most people live in denial, because they can't face the reality about themself's.
