Movies with Weird Gimmicks
<p>A list of movies that shoot for the stars, trying to make films with all sorts of strange and inventive gimmicks. They don't always succeed, but they most definitely have a good hand in advancing cinema through their efforts.</p><p>Movies that are extremely weird thanks to any narrative, editing, camera, etc gimmicks are certainly welcome here. Experimental, but without the "this is kinda incomprehensible" stigma that comes attached with that label. Some of these are actually very conventional movies, just with certain gimmicks involved. So there's no specification here.</p><p>If there are a few films with the same gimmicks, that's fine, as long as that gimmick didn't become super popular (i.e. Blair Witch Project, This is Spinal Tap, Roger Rabbit, A Scanner Darkly). </p><p>Suggestions are very welcome. Stuff with metafiction and sudden story shifts are the most welcome, but anything that has an overall weird gimmick is good. And thank you so much for all the people who have contributed in the comments! It's been so helpful. <br />(But PLEASE tell me what the gimmick is if you have a suggestion; I probably haven't seen it, so I won't know what the gimmick might be.)</p><p>Explanations are in the Notes section. Some might be inaccurate if I haven't seen the movie; if so, please correct me!</p><p>Also, since this list is popular: everyone, join the <a href="https://discord.gg/DNSvwuy" rel="nofollow">Unofficial Letterboxd Discord Server!</a> You can chat about movies and stuff.</p>

<p>listen ................... i have no control</p><p>(disclaimer: don’t take this list too seriously! to me, a "chick flick" is a movie that is usually light-hearted (but not always) and may have a romcom subplot (but not always). it doesn't have to match your definition! thanks!)</p>
Movies that you (initially) thought were "okay" but hit you so damn hard when they ended .
<p><i>Yea, reeling stuff. This is not necessarily about movies having the best endings but these are the ones that leave you pondering afterwards when they're over. </i></p><p>As you watch a movie, sometimes you can be bored the hell out...however, as soon as the final credits start rolling, there's an indescribable feeling as if you'd been hit by a bus...then start wandering around the house like a wacko.</p><p>Recommendations are appreciated-)))</p>
<p>Films that I believe are underrated, under-seen, not talked about enough or nowhere near as bad as their reputation would seem to suggest.</p>
