Chris Chapman's "Favourite Reality-Bending Films"
Movies that really mess with your head. Plot twists, unreliable narrators, alternate realities, subverted expectations. Don’t give away the ending in the comments please!

I Love Memento, love donnie darko, love the butterfly effect, love Run Lola run, love Requrium for a dream, love Thumbsucker.
How about the Jacket??
And one that made me think was I <3 Huckabees.

I’d add not only Waking Life, but also A Scanner Darkly. I didn’t see the twist coming in that movie by a mile.

Yes, Mulholland Drive, Pi, The Matrix, maybe Run Lola Run and Sex and Lucia. Also an old movie w/ Michael Douglas called The Game- it wasn’t exactly a great piece of artistry, but it threw me for a loop.
Mulholland Drive
The Matrix (and trilogy)

13th Floor
Dark City
Total Recall
Truman Show
Aeon Flux
Lathe of Heaven
Are just a few of the really great movies not on the list …
What the bleep do we know is so much sophmoric nonsense (gasp!). A far more profound substitute would be I heart huckabees.
This Philip K. Dick adaptation with a young Arnold Schwartznegger is one of my favorites. The Truman Show and Dark City might also qualify.
