Bullet Ballet
バレット・バレエ 
1998|Shinya Tsukamoto| 87min | DCP
Goda (Shinya Tsukamoto) is a director living in Tokyo whose wife has shot herself – either by accident or intent – with a .38 “chief’s special” revolver. A distraught Goda rapidly becomes obsessed with securing a revolver of his own. That quest leads him into conflict with a disaffected gang of street youths as well as Chisato (Kirina Mano), a troubled sex worker with an apparent death wish.

This is cinema-as-punk-rock, filled with twentysomething thugs with attitude and a resentment towards authority. It’s shot with an often-times shaky hand-held camera, and harshly-lit graint black and white visuals. In many respects it is a take on Orpheus in the Underworld: Goda descending further and further into a world of criminals, thugs and gang wars, until he’s buried so deep he’s unable to get out. It’s an incredibly harsh vision of Tokyo, transforming a comparatively peaceful city in a dark nightmare of poorly-lit back alleys and marauding hoodlums.

Cure 
キュア 
1997|Kiyoshi Kurosawa| 111min | DCP
Cure is part atmospheric crime film and part philosophical meditation. Detective Takabe (Koji Yakusho) is tracking a series of identical murders, committed under the same bizarre circumstances. Nothing seems to connect the murders and Takabe becomes increasingly frustrated...

As a slow psychological narrative, Cure could have been easily a boring affair, but, due to Kurosawa’s artistry, Cure has become an elaborate, psychologically deep and subtle tensive experience. The main element that makes the narrative structure of Cure so enjoyable is its reluctance to answer the mysteries in a direct way and the insistence, despite the elliptic way by unfolding the answer to the mystery, to keep things vague.This vagueness is first of all evoked visually, as the narrative space is full of strange and often truly visually mesmerizing elements (e.g. Mamiya as presence, the murders, shots of water flowing,  …etc.). While these elements are not strange as such, their repeated occurrence subtly ripples the normality of the narrative space. In other words, these occurrences unearth the unfamiliar in the familiar – and it is the persistence of the unable-to-be-explained unfamiliar that turns the narrative into a mysterious and rather unsettling experience.

Ten Nights of Dreams
ユメ十夜 
2006 | Yoshitaka Amano / Kon Ichikawa / Akio Jissôji / Masaaki Kawahara / Suzuki Matsuo / 
Miwa Nishikawa / Atsushi Shimizu / Takashi Shimizu / Keisuke Toyoshima / 
Yudai Yamaguchi / Nobuhiro Yamashita | 110分 | HD
Based on renowned Japanese writer Natsume Soseki's same-titled short story collection, Ten Nights of Dreams brings ten fantastical dream sequences to film with great visual and psychological panache. Representing the combined efforts of eleven directors, this outstanding anthology delves into the surreal subconscious with ten madly imaginative, reality-subverting visions that range from wonderfully wacky to nightmarishly unsettling. 

Beautiful, surreal, imaginative and funny Japanese omnibus based on novelist Soseki Natsume's book on dreams. 10 different directors (including Takeshi Shimizu!) interpret a dream with great success. They decided to make the film because the novel states that the riddle in the dreams will be solved 100 years in the future and the novel, in 2006 when the film was made, was celebrating it's 100th anniversary. Each segment is extremely creative, seemingly utilizing everything the medium of film has to offer. The dream imagery and logic in each segment is fascinating and highly entertaining. Highly recommended.

The House That Jack Built 
ハウス・ジャック・ビルト 
2018|Lars von Trier | 152分 | DCP
The story follows Jack, a highly intelligent serial killer, over the course of twelve years, and depicts the murders that really develop his inner madman.

It’s truly engaging over its 152 minutes, and some stretches are actually quite brilliant. It’s not for the uninitiated, and it knows that. Is it shallow? Not really. According to von Trier, “The House That Jack Built celebrates the idea that life is evil and soulless,” and you know what? It does just that.

Alice
アリス 
1988|Jan Svankmajer | 86分 | HD
In Czech director Jan Svankmajer's surreal adaptation of Lewis Carroll's classic children's book, Alice (Kristyna Kohoutova) follows her stuffed rabbit through a portal inside her dresser to be whisked away to Wonderland. While the White Rabbit, Mad Hatter and Cheshire Cat are still present, the familiar magical world and bizarre characters have undergone an unsettling transformation in the director's vision through the stop-motion animation of dead animals, puppets and other assorted objects.

I can't name any feature-length film that so successfully captures the weird way in which dreams are full of things that are, in principle, terrifying and foul, but they seem matter-of-fact in the dreamspace that it's only upon waking that you start to think of it as a nightmare. That is the childish POV that Alice excels at presenting, and no film captures the "this and then this and then this" rationale of childhood narratology in quite this way, with quite this bloody-minded commitment.

Deerskin 
ディアスキン 
2019|Quentin Dupieux | 77分 | HD
A man's obsession with his designer deerskin jacket causes him to blow his life savings and turn to crime.

A normal filmmaker would make clear that Georges has had a psychotic break of some sort. Quentin Dupieux is not a normal filmmaker. He just follows his hero calmly and affably into his derangement, well past the point where things turn bloody.
