Most UNIQUE Movie You've Seen?

Maybe a bit of a trash pick, but Basket Case is another that comes to mind, and Cronenberg’s Videodrome.   I’m in a bit of a horror film phase.   “What’s in the basket?”



Note those are not my picks, as I already went with one, The Cook, The Thief... as I recall, though I don’t think there is one most unique film. And I watched Eraserhead again last night. And.I might rewatch the original The Wicker Man tonight.

I probably haven't watched enough movies to know if these are unique or not by more active movie viewers. They're at lease unique to me with the limited number I have seen....

Vivarium Being John Malkovich Downsizing Moon Arrival (mostly because the aliens in this were quite unique) The Planet of the Apes (the original) 12 Monkeys Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind Jacob's Ladder Donnie Darko Mr. Nobody

Nice selections!

Your post caused one of my funniest memories to spring to my mind.

In 2002-2003 or so, we went to Olimpos, a very nice holiday place in Turkey. We were staying in cosy bungalows and enjoying the pre-summer weather.

There was a cafe and we were having our regular afternoon tea there, some people invited us to play the "sessiz sinema" game (silent cinema, it should have equivalents in other countries too). In the game, you're trying to make people guess the movie's title, with your gestures and movements. A vainly arrogant guy claimed that he had watched all the movies that exist in the world. When it was our turn to pick, I chose a Stephen King adaptation, The Dark Half (1993) precisely because the name's Turkish translation is goddamnawfully difficult to guess (Hayatı Emen Karanlık - which comes to mean The Darkness that Sucks Up Life) and the movie was kinda obscure in Turkey. Of course, no one could guess it including that guy. I asked him if he had watched the movie, he acted like (if he was serious about that, it is such a tragedy) he was hugely shocked that there actually is a movie in the whole world that he wasn't aware of. Perhaps he sensed my sarcastic temperament (that I only reveal when I see necessary), so didn't pretend to have watched it. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gotten away that easily, hahah!

how about "Zardoz"?

^ @Progaardwark, have you seen Doom Patrol? I reccomend it, very unusual though a DC comics product , it is extremly surreal and wtf, one can never predict were the shows gose for and where eac episode will lead to Scizofrenic and acid trip incarnate, the flavours of the 60s us heavy in thus show.
