What Are Some Surrealist Films That Challenge Reality?

[San Goku]

I've been getting into surrealist cinema lately and am fascinated by how it stretches the boundaries of reality. I've seen classics like "Eraserhead" and "Mulholland Drive," but I'm curious about other films in this vein that might be overlooked or not as widely discussed. What are some surrealist films you think deserve more attention?

"Mulholland Drive" is a masterpiece, but I find "Eraserhead" a bit too disorienting for my taste. It definitely challenges reality, but the sheer oddity makes it hard to connect with emotionally. If you haven't seen "The Holy Mountain," it's a wild ride that blends surreal imagery with deeper philosophical themes, and I think it's worth a watch for anyone delving into surrealist cinema.
