Seconding Annihilation. Ex Machina is also great. While not as unsettling as those two I think you might enjoy Upgrade as well, it has a few very nasty moments.

Magnetic North posted:Alright, this might be a weird request. I can't play the video game Payday 2 anymore because of motion sickness. Lately, I've been especially nostalgic for the ol' 'Cop-Clicker' so, I watched Heat for the first time on Pluto.tv to see if I would enjoy it. I did, though it was a little more 'human' than I expected. For background, Inception is probably my favorite movie. That movie is a lot of things but I would not describe it as particularly 'human' and that suits me just fine. Den of Thieves is a mixed bag, but Gerard Butler is hilarious in it and it has an amazing shoot-out that I consider (don't boo me) on par with Heat. Wrath of Man has too many plotlines, but there is some decent heisting in there and being a Jason Statham movie it deffo focuses on the action. Ambulance is very, very Michael Bay, but if you want heists, action and dozens of cop cars flying around in Blues Brothers-like crashes it doesn't get any better.

Ibexaz posted:I watched The Item and it was the worst rear end piece of rear end movie I've ever seen and I need other movies that are clearly trying to ape Tarantino's style of cool characters with witty dialogue, bonus points if the writer/director in the leading role Lowlife First Love I quite enjoyed both.

Jack B Nimble posted:What are some decent "spooky medieval action fantasy" movies? Think like 13th warrior, the bit in Greta and Hansel where the huntsman is briefly present, that recent Viking movie based on the old tale that also influenced Hamlet, etc. Beowulf & Grendel is a mixed bag, but the things that work are great. Half the crew nearly died filming it, there is a documentary Wrath of Gods about the hardships during production.

Gripweed posted:A discussion about Singular Point in the Kaiju thread has me craving movies that demand you pay attention and reward you for it. Movies where the creator is trying to get something very complex across but if you follow along you'll go "Holy poo poo!" when something happens. Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy does not your hold hand and expects you to pick up on a lot of subtle moments.

Xiahou Dun posted:To be clear, I did that entirely via searching. The movie could be a hidden gem or absolute dogshit, I have no idea. Juan of the Dead is a lot of fun. Pretty sure I missed a lot of the subtext, but there is enough satire in there that I kept wondering how they managed to get that made in Cuba.
