Post subject:  Surrealism in Horror
I am a big fan of many things that the horror genre does. But my favorite kind of horror movie is one that uses surreal themes and images to fuck with your head. It is kind of my thing, I like it when I have to think about what just happened or I am compelled to watch the movie again to catch something. Some of my favorites are: Alejandro Jodorowsky's "Santa Sangre", David Lynch's "Eraserhead", and David Cronenberg's "Videodrome". If you guys can think of any other Non-Linear, Surreal, or Trippy horror movies it would be greatly appreciated. :mrgreen:

I think you should like "Stephen King's Cat's eye".
