Rob Ager (Collative Learning - check it out) has a new list out on the topic and I thought it would make an interesting thread here. These are films that just creep into your head too much to expose yourself to on the verge of unconsciousness and dream states.
I look forward to adding your selections to my late night must-see list.

I have only a few:
- ERASERHEAD (D Lynch) ~ the sounds are as vile as the imagery.This film really crawls out of the frame and wraps itself around the synapses. In a word: Ugly
- Natural Born Killers ~ too wanton; too visceral; too bleak
- Hereditary ~ this one overlaps seriously into the subconscious; it is irredeemably hellish in theme and mood; Tony Collette's zombie self-decapitation and her horror face stayed with me for far too long after first viewing. Basically, I can't just ride the thrill in this one without paying the price on my soul. Highly recommend it in company though.
- I, Daniel Blake ~ I haven't been able to go through it a second time yet because it is just too sadly real. Makes Mike Leigh look like Fred and Ginger.
- Snowtown ~ too close to home geographically, especially since my kids don't currently live under my protection. I get emotional just thinking about this one.
