It's funny that most people assume film nerds want to recommend them "slow, boring, indie european dramas about people in rooms talking" when nearly every film nerd I follow is like "here's a list of movies that will make you go insane, have fun"
you must know some pretty fuckin boring people
to be fair, about a third of these movies definitely are at least partially european dramas about people in rooms talking
they’re just also brain-melting nightmare hellscapes
Lovelyroseytea Yeah, in my experience most film geeks who aren't, like, boring Tarantino worshippers or compulsively cataloguing different Apocalypse Now cuts or whatever are pretty heavily into stuff that makes your mind explode into little pieces.
Love that
the intro is basically "content warning: everything"
Pretty much

Thank you so much
Satoshi Kon's entire filmography is phenomenal. It's a shame his final film still hasn't been completed. RIP good sir.
=( I miss Satoshi! Paranoia agent is my favorite Anime show, Paprika/Perfect Blue are my favorite anime movies.
magnetic rose is a small little film satoshi kon wrote (directed by koji morimoto) that I recommend if you’ve seen his films
(edit: i dont want the term “small” or “little” to make anyone question the quality of the film, i only mean small in terms of length in comparison to his feature length films)
May no exaggeration this is EXACTLY what I needed right now thank you
I hope she responds to this
respond
"Nicolas Cage appears many times on this list"
As he should be
Candyman has a special place in my heart, and by heart I mean the organ that stores trauma because I watched it when I was wayyyy too young
Same tho my brain blocked almost all of it, same thing with childs play 2
"Possession" (1981) is an absolute classic and definite must-see. Isabelle Adjani is simply amazing. In an interview, she admitted that her role in the film messed her up in the head...
i was looking forward to movies to help deteriorate my mental state faster
Give me a week
@@nyxfears hells yeah
The Handmaiden is required viewing for lesbians/bi girls, along with Imagine Me and You. Holy shit does the handmaiden improve upon its source material The Fingersmith. I do like the final line of the book though, that was pretty solid.
and now we got portrait of a lady on fire too! all we do is win
@@oof-rr5nf Oo I have heard of that one. I'll have to perform my due lesbian dilligence and check it out
@@PforPanthera it really goes off. it depicts themes like female gaze, nature of artist/muse relationships, comradery between women as a community, how suppressed women have a fire within them that burns with quiet yet loud agony, all the while being a very visually pleasing experience. gays won
It's a must see for everyone, period.
The handmaiden is the best thing I've ever seen. It's the one movie I demand all my friends watch with me without any context whatsoever so I can vicariously experience watching it for the first time.
I watched The Devils the same day I passed the GED and saw The Lighthouse on the big screen. And it was also Halloween.
Pretty much the best day of my life.
Candyman's score was composed by contemporary classical composer Philip Glass! It's great.
Yes! Another Glass scored film worth looking at IMHO; Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters.

great work! u put phantom thread a second time tho where dead alive should be
@@sawdustanddiamonds99 ok! i fixed it
Missed Pan’s Labyrinth right after Bone Tomahawk! That being said, I really appreciate this list-thank you :)
Paprika is legitimately my favorite movie and I am so happy to see someone else talk about it! I love everything by that director as well- especially Tokyo Godfathers when I feel like a good cry. If I may tentatively add Naked Lunch to this list- it vibes with a lot of the weirdness on this list. There’s a typewriter shaped like a beetle that orgasms when you type on it. Fun!
that top is SO CUTE
Dude when Perfecr Blue appeared I DIED. I thought nobody else cared about Satoshi Kon but me!
Edit: Damn, Paprika too!?
You should check out Super Eyepatch Wolf's videos on Kon's work.
Finally, another stan of the suspiria remake
Still haven't seen it, I've seen the Olga scene and it make me feel very queasy
Content warning: friendship. My favorite channel for a reason
I would describe Mandy as both an anime and like someone’s modern D&D LARPing session that got turned into a movie
I loved the zombies killing priest in the phantom thread 31:22
Mandy is honestly a homestuck fans wet dream
jesus CHRIST, that Inland Empire clip
I really can't do messed up faces like that
It caught me off guard lol scarred for life
i just really like your intro music
Thanks, I made it myself 💕
Me too. Sooo much.
@@nyxfears Seriously?? Its really fucking good. Wow. I just found your channel and I AM SO GLAD I DID. Flawless.
@Nyx Fears
Holy God, that's epic! I was just going through the comments to see if I could find the title of it, you're super talented May!
Girl, I dig your spooky, witchy opening. I love listening to you while I drive, so this is the first time I’ve actually seen it. The song in it is so vibe-y!
I feel like there's a lot more good movies on this list than you implied in the intro. Also, I once tried to watch Inland Empire when it was about to expire off Netflix, and it was literally midnight, and that's a lot like watching on drugs after a full day of activity.
To me, Inland Empire is like the closest anyone has gotten to depicting bad dreams in film... the constant disorientation hits most of my nightmares right on the head.
I watched it at 1 AM. My first time. I had to stop half way, walk around my home for fifteen minutes, then continue watching.
The queen has blessed us!
That was a lot of movies id either never heard of or just didnt have on my list. Thanks as always, really love your input on all of these! You're a v wonderful human being!!!
This is the first video ive watched on your channel, and wow. I love the style the editing and most importantly you and your taste in movies. Wonderful.
Great list.
I have been watching Doom Patrol because a story about massively dysfunctional people learning to come together is the hope I need right now.
Still catching up on your episodes. You have brought me tons of laughter since I found your channel. Thank you so much for this excellent list. Many, many favorites! I absolutely loved seeing John Waters AND Tyler Perry on the same list. You have excellent taste! 🤗💜 (And even The Handmaiden! Oh my!)
I come back to this video whenever I have a bad day. It’s one of my favorites. Thanks for making this
Nobody:
May: What if I rick rolled everyone,
BUT
It was V A P O R W A V E
Inland Empire is my favorite David Lynch movie. Maybe one of my favorite movies ever. I like weird, oblique incomprehensible nightmare nonsense though, so I may not be representative of the public.
Jason Stone I know, right? It's literally like three hours of a fever-induced nightmare caught on video. It's fantastic.
This is me, coming in a year late and realizing that the skill Inland Empire in Disco Elysium is named after this movie.
This is the first video of yours I came across. I love your content and your vibe. I just subscribed.
“Suspiria remake is better than the first one” is not a controversial opinion.
It is if you're a boomer
you kidding? it is a very unpopular opinion
personally both films are my favourite of all time and they're both perfect for completely different reasons. if you happen to like the remake better, more power to you!
Just found your channel and OMF I love it. You deserve so many more subscribers!!
I have been waiting for someone to clip Nic Cage in his undies screaming in the brown bathroom for so long. Thank you for your service.
5 days at home and I'm fairly certain I did not purchase enough cannabis.
Same. 😢
Ginger Snaps is my favorite werewolf film of all time and when you mentioned it, I squealed in delight. Thank you for mentioning it, Queen!
This was suddenly in my recommendations and Don not regret sitting though through, real choice movies in this, Thanks. hopefully this is enough to ride out the quarantine
I feel like as trans girls who likes horror a lot, me and may have somewhat of a similar brain. "This movie has everything in it, this movie even has an orgy. Absolutely perfect." 11/10 sounds fantastic.
Thank you for the cheer-up love! Can't wait to see the hard mode list even though a third of these titles would probably curb my appetite already. I started my quarantine with The Conjuring series and now I'm crushing hard on Vera Farmiga. :/
Good luck & my best wishes to all of my immunocompromised comrades!
This list is absolutely perfect and dreamy, and no, I totes didn't swoon over seeing Ginger Snaps and Videodrome get a shout out since it doesn't get much love these days.
Thank you so much for this!
I watched your video and the way you explain each movie has motivated me to watch a few - So far, I've watched these movies because of this list:
-Videodrome
-Santa Sangre
-Altered States
-Mulholland Drive
I think I'm going to watch Susperia next! :D
I'm behind on your vids. I loved this! So tight! And the cover at the end is (chef's kiss)
finding your channel was a blessing
I just found your channel, so I've been working my way through your back catalogue and have internally retitled this one "50 movies to distract you from impending WWIII". Thanks for the tips.
You have amazing taste in mooobies and your personality is amazing. I'm so happy I found your channel ~
Haven't watched your videos in forever, but this is a wonderful one! I've only watched or even heard of a few of these (love Pan's Labyrinth and Perfect Blue) and I can't wait to traumatize myself with all these new selections
Great list! Thank you, its just nice to hear from my fave youtuber in this trying time. If I may, 'In Fabric' is a very distracting movie about a haunted dress and it will make you feel some ways.
This video got me to watch Videodrome, Mulholland Drive, and Brazil. Now those are probably some of my favorite films. Thanks, May.
HELL YEAH THE LAWNMOWER SCENE Dead Alive RULES I have stanned it ever since I saw it as a teen. I'm so pleased you mentioned it!
This video was recommended to me by RUclips, and I am blessed. You're fantastic, funny, witty, and cuuuuuute~! lol
I don't think it's a coincidence that most of my favorite movies are on this list.
Can't wait to spend the next god knows how long reliving all my trauma with these gorgeous films
Thanks, this video legitimately has improved my mood.
Great list! Few of these I want to rewatch.
I commented something once before when this video first came out but I just wanna say thank u so much for talking about Mandy. I really feel like it doesn't quite get the amount of love it deserves.
I feel like you just reviewed all the highlights from my DVD and Blu-ray collection. I don't think I've ever felt so validated. Which is weird, but I'm here for it x
I needed this, thank you :)
First time watching your channel! Im very into film and filmmaking and i think your video was well put together and is a great list, love your energy you brought to the video, subscription earned
Thank you for this. I could really use a distraction and I appreciate both your hard work and the content itself.
Thank you so much for this list ❤❤ gj nyx
Great list! Love y Ur RUclips channel. It's very refreshing! 💜💙💚
Nyx, dear Lady you had me at Shin Godzilla.
Great list. Own a couple, I need to make an effort to watch some of the others on this list.
Great selection and thx for the video!
i mean admittedly i probably wont watch most of these BUT this list did make me rewatch ginger snaps after like forever and and i still love it so thank you.
ur taste in movies is breathtaking
She's absolutely adorable. How come this channel doesn't have more subs?!?
Didn't expect to see The Devils on a list like this haha
I wasn't ready to see this shot again 22:42
The ending was the best part!! Thank you for making this!
SO glad Satoshi Kon movies made the list. Paprika is my favorite and that one for sure has GREAT rewatch potential, since I know I had to watch it like 5 times before I understood what was going on, but I loved it after the first
Anime annnd Nicolas Cage? I need to see Mandy immediately. Plus, Serial Mom is one of my all time favorites! Great video😁
I haven't watched you for a while hun still love your videos x
Really enjoyed the list, Nyx!
I've just discovered your channel thanks to this video and i love it ! (sorry for my english => hi i'm french !)
i just realized you have a bridge piercing (???) which looks GREAT, and also i cant wait to watch a bunch of these movies now
I'd love to enjoy the movies, but unfortunate I'm in the category of essential(mail), but at least it's my weekend so I'll look at some of them today
Thanks for your work, friend.
Stay safe.
Kinda in the same boat (grocery Worker) I just watched Rikki Oh and yep it is insane but I loved it.
dang I’m trying to finish up school work in the next week but after that, this will be added to my quarantine bucket list!!
Gurl you are sooo underrated this video is the best thing to watch during the apocalypse! You are soo funny I laughed the whole way through!! ❤️
22:08 may have just saved my life hahaha sad but true! Now I need to see Future War because that was fantastic.
EDIT: I posted this as soon as I saw that part, and am happily returning to fangirl about the fact that you replayed it, more than once!
ALSO: I wish I had words to describe what you do for my mental health, in so many crazy ways. It's been a journey since I found your channel, I'm pretty sure you changed my life. Keep being you, you're incredible! I just hope you know you are actively saving lives.
I can't believe Raw didn't make this list, it seems to fit in well with your taste in films. I would also like to mention a few of my favorites, Pi, Requiem for a Dream, Primer, Ichi the Killer, Audition, The Congress. Too many to list, but these are timeless.
You've just poked my weird bone because I've seen most of these awesome films, and.so.now you've got a new subscriber %- }
So glad to see Perfect Blue on here! It's by far one of my TOP favorite movies. Also Paprika! All of Satoshi Kon's works are gold imo :")
What. A. Mood.
As it's both break and I'm inside all day everyday, I'm down to watch some of these.
I got so excited when I saw perfect blue!! A lot of these are amazing, especially the handmaiden and serial mom, but Perfect Blue has a special place in my heart.
SHIN GODZILLA.... QUEEN
I LOVE YOU MAYYYYYY IM OBSESSED WITH YOHR COMMENTARY PLEASE MAKE MORE VIDEOSSSSSSS
I wish this list went on forever. Thank you for this.
Thank you I needed this
Phantom of the Paradise continues to be a bizarre favorite of mine. I Still can't put my finger on why I keep coming back to it.
I didn’t know anyone else liked The Phantom of the Paradise!! I love you! 😁
Awesome List!
I was with you, so with you. Like 90% of these movies I already own and need to rewatch.
But then you told me to put on pants. I REFUSE!
27:54 My grandma took her mother (whom she was quite distant) so see one of his movies, you can imagine how that went
Awesome video, most of this movies seem right up my alley and it makes me so happy, you’re stunning, thank yo so much, stay safe ✨✨
Phantom of the Paradise and Society are probably among my top 10 fav movies so I'm very happy to see them ever getting representation.
i enjoyed every second, i love you
god between this and the 50 movies you shouldn't watch i'm so happy to be here and have subscribed so fast thank you for being
I really want to complement you for your intro music you did a phenomenal job.I really dig your channel thanks for the content homie.You be safe during this Apocalyptic time and keep doing you..
love the list! love you!
You're a freaking Star ! You're going far, I can tell. Awesome taste in Film btw.
After commenting this I realize it seems overly positive/ verging on sarcastically positive. but I'm crazy and honest to God have the ESP. Believe me I know.
I was entertained to the maximum, mostly by Riki Oh. Thank you.
Incredible video full of great suggestions. And I’m not just saying that because Brazil is probably my favorite movie
