Enter The Void
First, a brief plot summary: Oscar and his sister Linda are recent arrivals in Tokyo. One night, Oscar is caught up in a police bust and shot. As he lies dying, his spirit,
faithful to the promise he made his sister - that he would never abandon her - refuses to abandon the world of the living. It wanders through the city,
his visions growing evermore distorted, evermore nightmarish. Past, present and future merge in a hallucinatory maelstrom.
Enter The Void is by far the most groundbreaking film I have ever seen. Never before have I been so sucked into a story. Disturbing, dramatic, haunting. It lingers in your mind for days.
Astounding VFX. I heard "Better Than Avatar" (visually) more than once, and I have to say I agree.
Thomas Bangalter (of Daft Punk fame) composed the absolutely mesmerizing score.
Watch it!

The best credits sequence ever: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tPxgi-PiNFE
A brief warning: Gaspar Noes films have a reputation for being…. "challenging" cinema.
The 12 minute rape scene in his 2002 masterpiece "Irreversible" was by far the most disturbing scene I have ever seen in a movie (followed closely by a graphic murder taking place minutes before).
And when I say disturbing… I mean definitively disturbing.
I mean more disturbing than Ichi the Killer, Visitor Q, Oldboy, or Guinea Pig combined. I can't see anyway that this movie could be released stateside without a NC-17 rating.
You have been warned.
