The Darjeeling LimitedThe Darjeeling Limited
Buy new: $9.99 / Used from: $2.82
In my opinion Wes Anderson's best film to date. His use of color and props mixed with his unique camera work make it so deliciously surreal. Dreamy one could say.

21 Grams21 Grams

Damn good movie by Alejandro González Iñárritu, director of Babel and Amores Perros. One of the most depressing films you will ever watch but also one of the best you will ever see.

A huge departure from Carrey's usual and his best film by far. Amazing film, you will have seen nothing like it. Allows you to escape life for its duration.

It's like a good dream.
Mulholland DriveMulholland Drive
Buy new: $9.99 / Used from: $3.85
Probably David Lynch's most commercial film since The Elephant man but that in no way means commercial in the conventional sense, it's still classic Lynch.
Trainspotting - Director's Cut (Collector's Edition)Trainspotting - Director's Cut (Collector's Edition)

Another trippy film about addicts with Scotland as the backdrop this time. Love it.

Can't say much about this film that hasn't been said already. Revolutionary. If you havn't seen it then you should be ashamed to call yourself a film buff.

Boy, this film really makes you think differently. It's like a drug!
EraserheadEraserhead

Nothing out there like it, Lynch's use of sound mixed with his disturbing imagery make this an extremely difficult watch but please don't turn it off like most people do!

Classic, lets you escape for a while.

Lynch has gone back to his "Eraserhead" days with this unbelievably nightmarish masterpiece.
Punch-Drunk Love (Single Disc Edition)Punch-Drunk Love (Single Disc Edition)
Buy new: $8.49 / Used from: $2.31
Seriously, ignore any criticisms of this film, by far Adam Sandlers best. An unapologetic anxiety driven unnerving masterpiece of a love story. Great art direction also.
Vengeance TrilogyVengeance Trilogy
Ok I was going to just put Oldboy but all three deserve mentioning here (Oldboy, Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance and Lady Vengeance). Amazing achievements in film making. Box set is a bit pricey here you would be better off buying them individually. Just a forewarning, these films will not put you in good form!
Amores PerrosAmores Perros
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $3.85
Another great film by 21 Grams director Alejandro González Iñárritu. This was his first film to reach a wide audience.
Stranger Than FictionStranger Than Fiction

Departure from Ferrells usual. Fun and Quirky.
Blue Velvet (Special Edition)Blue Velvet (Special Edition)
Buy new: $9.49 / Used from: $4.95
A more accessible David Lynch film, some would argue it is commercial but I don't agree. More classic Lynch weirdness.
RushmoreRushmore
Buy new: $9.99 / Used from: $4.92
Wes Andersons second film and yet another masterpiece. Also check out his debut feature "Bottle Rocket".
