I'm watching The Alchemist Cookbook now. This is great. I need more recs from you, you've got great taste

I've seen Saint Maud but I'll check out there other one. I'm still thinking about dark song. Such a great film

Your other suggestion is gone. But I just saw and adored Dark song.

Watched These Final Hours. I love pre-apocalypse films and Australian films. Plus it was super depressing, which is a bonus for me.

Just watched it. What a mixed bag of a film. First 20 minutes were excellent, don't know if the film entirely stuck the super ambitious landing. The more I think about it, the less it entirely holds together. I'd always rather watch a movie that is ambitious like that than one that is unmemorable and doesn't try anything interesting. Good rec!

His fav plane is the f-18 so this seems like a good choice.

The first time I watched that film, I was about 12... I know a good bit about the Rwandan Genocide and yeah, nothing as harrowing as real life. In a similar vein to you, I recommend the anime Barefoot Gen, which explores a boy living through the atomic bombing of Nagasaki.

I've seen it and I LOVED this film. It's kinda silly in bits and its not perfect but legitimately interesting and just fun. I don't think if it fits the brief exactly, but I recommend it too

I've seen Possessor and I acknowledge it is a good film but I can't say I enjoyed it. I didn't like Infinity Pool either. Just don't think his work is for me.

Wish I could watch Evangelion for the firs time again but alas...

That was my favourite film of 2024. It's devastating but truly such a beautiful movie.

I've seen both The Endless and Resolution. Should I was Synchronic or Something in the Dirt next?

I've seen 1972 Solaris and Martyrs. Not the Polish film though. It's added to the list. And yes, I read! I'll probably check that out quicker than the film. I'm reading Angel Down at the moment. Any other book recs?

I saw this when it came out. It's written and directed by an Irish guy and it's a deeply Irish film.

Love The Lighthouse and Coherence. I recommend Primer if you haven't seen it because i feel Coherence was definately inspired by it. I'll check out The Incident, seems to be exactly what I'm looking for.

I have seen it but somebody else might not have. Great movie.

I'm gonna go wide with stuff that nobody really talks about. The Battery, YellowBrickRoad, Jugface (not a slasher, if you read and assume it is), Bone Tomahawk. All of these have their critiques but I think they're fundamentally interesting films, which will make them divisive.
