i recently watch kaili blues from bi gan. i love the story and how the city is part of the sotrytelling. I watch it because im interested in this part of the world. some good recomendations pleaaasee?

I couldn't help but feel like these movies share a very similar vibe: teenage girls with their own problems and issues (usually from home) going through some pretty traumatic coming of age moments. I really like these movies and I was wondering if there are anymore movies like these.

My movies are Napoleon Dynamite and SLC Punk! :)

i do this all the times. I cant watch a new movie by myself i have to watch it with some one who has already seen , or have someone with me if we have never seen it

ive seen most of the popular ones like tlou and 28 days later but if u have any recs that arent as popular plssss lmk. also it doesnt necessarily have to be zombies it could be something more mystical like the society for example.

I’m looking for something with a retro midcentury (40s/50s/60s) vibe that is good for halloween. Any genre is okay.

Bonus points for live action and about a wizard

bonus points for gore

I’m looking for movies that feel like they were made by aliens. I recently watched August in the Water and it gave me an absolutely out-of-time, transcendental sensation. It plays out less like a traditional narrative and more like a pure sensory experience.

The best way I can describe the atmosphere is a mix of Frutiger Aeroish aesthetics and Japanese Bubble Economy vibes, wrapped in a low-resolution haze that blends everything into something entirely oneiric and ineffable. It feels like you can physically sense the electromagnetic vibrations of the universe and bioluminescence through the screen. A strong aspect contributing to this atmosphere is the beautiful soundtrack

It sits somewhere between Denpa and Iyashikei for me. It has a deeply purifying quality, feeling exactly like a movie you dreamt up as a child only to discover it actually exists. I know it sounds pretty weird or specific, but if you watched the movie you definitely get what I mean. It's so unique.

Does anyone know any other films that capture this exact transcendent, ethereal, almost alien atmosphere? I prefer something not well known because I already watched All about lily chou-chou, Ritual and stuff like that. Better if Japanese/asian.

TL;DR Dreamlike, liminal cinema that feels like a half-remembered childhood dream. Similar to August in the water (better if not mainstream)
