Mullholland Drive
Wannabe actress Betty moves into her Aunt’s apartment only to find Rita, a strange woman with no recollection of who she is. Together, they try to find Rita’s identity. This is no Twin Peaks, but I would argue this is definitely worth the watch. Why? Let’s find out.
DetailsEraserhead
Henry, an introverted factory printer, finds he has to care for his premature, odd-looking child. If any of you have seen any of the short films on Vimeo, then you’ve essentially seen Eraserhead.

DetailsMidnight in Paris
Writer Gil Pender, while on vacation in Paris, mysteriously travels to the 1920s at midnight each night. Midnight in Paris is a very strange movie to me, as everyone seems to love it except for me.

Details11.22.63

DetailsUnbreakable
Unbreakable follows down-on-his-luck David Dunn as he finds he has superpowers he can use to do good. Director M. Night Shyamalan’s career is an interesting one. His highs are high and his lows are low. One of his best movies is Unbreakable. Why? Let’s find out.
Details2001: A Space Odyssey

DetailsDune
Two royal families battle over control of the planet Arrakis. The Harkonnens overtake it, leading Paul Atreides, of the Atreides’, to battle for domination.

DetailsVagrant Queen
Outcast Queen Elida lives her life as a scavenger, finding out her mother is alive, forcing her to return home to find and free her. This series is based on a comic book, but it felt like a bad fanfiction of several popular sci-fi works. How bad of a fanfiction? Let’s find out.
DetailsTales from the Loop
Tales From the Loop is a science fiction anthology series, each episode following people interacting with technology that bends reality. I can see it being revered by pretentious film majors, detested by everyone else. Neither party would be wrong. How? Let me explain.
