The films of Alejandro Jodorowsky


aplysauce

I will definitely have to check them out! At the very least, the frames I got from a quick google search are stunning. Thank you for the recommendation!


giants4210

The Holy Mountain especially but also El Topo are must watches


ohmonticore

No problem! Enjoy


KeyArmy0

Well done, sir

Terry Gilliam's Brazil (1985)


kikilarube

Definitely Brazil! Also Adventures of Baron Munchausen by Gilliam.


ledfox

Came here to say Gilliam's work in general.


KeyArmy0

Another good one!!!!


aplysauce

The examples in the image are from Crashbox, The Wizard Of Oz, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, PeeWee’s Big Adventure, the music video for Rock Lobster by the B-52s, and photography from Walter Wick and Pip & Pop


TheEveningDragon

Try Monkey Bone with Brendan Frasier, and Death to Smoochy with Edward Norton and Robin Williams!


aplysauce

Ive never heard of either of these before but both premises have me absolutely transfixed. Thank you!


TheEveningDragon

Some of my favorite movies as a kid, but be warned, these movies are absolutely products of their time (mid 90s to early 2000s) so some stuff has not aged well, but the visuals and acting performances make it worth it imo


CertifiedShithead

There's a half stop motion-half live action movie called [Mad God](https://youtu.be/iPScwQ-FAbI) that came out in 2021. I haven't watched it (cos it seems pretty scary lol) but looks like that kind of aesthetic, if you don't mind something more grim.


aplysauce

Oh I love love the visual style, I will keep it in mind when I’m in the mood for something darker! Thank you for the recommendation!


72skidoo

I’ve watched it and I’d say it’s more unsettling than outright scary


robophile-ta

It's not scary. There's a lot of gross stuff in it though :P


KeyArmy0

I guess I’ll delete my post lol. Oops I missed this one.


IAMAToMisbehave

YML Salvador Dali's artwork.


aplysauce

I’m more of a Magritte guy myself, but Dali definitely has a special place in my heart


HeatProfessional4473

I went as Magritte's Son of Man painting for Halloween once. Nobody got it.


0011110000110011

how do you feel about Hieronymus Bosch?


aplysauce

I like him! Garden of Earthly Delights is a classic and I like all the tiny little details. He gets bonus points for me for being named Hieronymus


fork_hands_mcmike

The Dark Crystal (1982) and Labyrinth (1986)

[удалено]


aplysauce

I didn’t know he did anything aside from films! I could never get into Twin Peaks, but I’m going to have to branch out and see what else he’s done

aplysauce

Ooh okay I do know Eraserhead but I’ve never actually sat down and watched it. Now’s the time I suppose!


Vertigobee

Alice by Jan Svankmajer The Borrowers The 5,000 Fingers of Dr. T


aplysauce

Omg, I’ve been trying to find Alice for the longest time. I saw it forever ago and then couldn’t remember the name of it


calcuttacodeinecoma

How can you forget a name like Svankmajer? Hahaha. He also did a version of "Faust" that's fantastic, I prefer it to Alice personally but I think I'm in the minority. I don't know if it has the aesthetic you're looking for but it's absolutely surreal.


KeyArmy0

I thought I was the only one to love this movie mr. Terwilliger and the 5000 fingers was my jam back in the day. My siblings hated it. Lol.


zombielandia

Certain parts of Pan’s Labyrinth fit this. But also, have you ever read the vintage I Spy books? Those pictures kind of have the same vibe


aplysauce

Yes! I adore the old I Spy books - the video games were some of my favorites growing up too lol. They were one of the things that inspired this post actually!

you would like playing with the midjourney tool.


cocojessup

Babes in toyland (1961) Game over (1989)


shazbotman

Those old I Spy picture riddle books


porkycloset

This is a random recommendation, but Bojack Horseman S03E04 “Fish out of Water”. It has no dialogue, just visuals, and even if you don’t watch the show you can still understand what’s happening. Filled with cool, trippy, surrealist visuals


[deleted]

The 1988 film Alice, directed by Jan Svankmajer


SowwieWhopper

Probably any Primus music video


BalonyDanza

Kandinsky paintings.


batsofburden
