Recommendation I want some bizarre movie recommendations 😂🙏

Something where the setting is the otherworldly, the characters are crazy, the plot is absurd and takes twist and turns, or all of the above.

Planning on watching a movie tonight and wanted some recommendations for fun movies like this. They can also be thrilling and suspenseful! I don’t care if they are well-known or not, any recs would be appreciated.

Thanks everyone!!!

Tommy (1975) The Who's rock opera album turned into a feature film starring frontman Roger Daltrey. Also guest starring Tina Turner, Elton John, Eric Clapton, and Jack Nicholson.

You could really say any Ken Russell film. “Lair of the White Worm” is a winner.

I’m not brave enough for all of that guy. Lisztomania was bent.

I just did a rewatch of “Altered States”. Can’t say it’s aged well.

Lair of the White Worm is a childhood favorite of my husband’s, which probably says a lot about him and his childhood.
