Ever since I caught wind of some good mindfuck movies in the recent times, I have been on a marathon to watch these. First let me list out some classic mindfuck movies which I love:
1- Primer
2- Memento
3- The Prestige
4- Oldboy
5- The Fountain
6- The Machinist
7- Requiem for a dream
8- Synecdoche, New York
9- Adaptation
10- Waking Life
Now the movies i’ve been watching recently:
1- The Objective – Pretty good movie. Afganistan based war related movie. Its really hard to explain the genre, but it is definitely a mindfuck.
2- Jacob’s Ladder – Amazing acting throughout. Good use of practical special effects to create an atmosphere. The nightmares come to life. Really, really enjoyed it.
3- The Jacket – Loved this one. Adrien Brody and a couple of good actors combined with a very interesting mindfuck type script. Time travel is involved.
4- Triangle – Pretty good story structure and the actual story is amazing. The acting and special effects are sub-par, but the story carried the movie through. Pretty damn minducky if you ask me.
5- The Last Winter – There was an interesting idea in there somewhere, but the executions and acting really dragged it down. The story wasnt really all that good even.
