Not even a mind fuck
Watching some movies is like having schizophrenia. And not in a good way. Now, I liked Paranoia Agent. That managed not to have too many loose ends, and in the end, it sorta actually made sense. And I liked Paprika. While it was a wild, wild ride, it had a definite frame around the schizophrenic madness, and a real plot running through it, and eventually you could sort it all out. But Perfect Blue? Let’s see… Cuckoo Nest, Schrodinger’s Butterfly, oh and definitely In the Mouth of Madness.
Satoshi Kon, congratulations.
Runners up would be NGE, FLCL, and perhaps Jacob’s Ladder, although those first two managed to be entertaining enough to laugh off the lack of coherency.
