Movies messin with your mind....

I am a huge fan of hardcore gore and have been for many years. Lately though, I find that the less gory a movie is, and the more it affects my brain, I really like that. Some of my favorites are High Tenson (ok that ones still gory), Jacob's Ladder, Paranoia 1.0, Antibodies, Frailty, Memento.....there's more (Sixth Sense, Fight Club) but this is just to name a few.

What are some of the best mindfu*k movies out there, and thank you for your input.

You're absolutely right. It should have gone in the movie thread, I realize that now. but i like the "other talk" people better.

A friendly word of advice, you're not supposed to use profanity in thread titles.

There is always the Luis Bunuel surrealist movies. They mess with your mind in a different way. I'd start with "That Obscure Object of Desire" or "The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie".

For paranoia movies, try the original "Manchurian Candidate" or "The Parallax View".

Freaky movies: anything with Carebears in them. Those things are way creepy.

The Game & Se7en

The Nines tried to be, but it failed with a completely idiotic conclusion.
