Watched Waking life a couple of days ago and it blew my mind! It's a great philosophical movie about this guy who wanders around this dreamworld where he encounter different DC's (spiritual entities?) which talk about and present philosophical ideas.
Great film, I really recommend it! :)
Please share any dream related movies, I want moar!
hehe, i'm watching paprika with my gf at the moment. it qualifies for this thread, but is very different from waking life.
The science of sleep, vanilla sky .. I'll be back with more.
Orpheus
Spellbound(Dali+Hitchcock=gud)
Begotten
I am a cyborg but thats ok
Eraserhead
Tetsuo the Iron man
There are a ton, these are the ones that come to mind though.
Vanilla Sky was not a dream themed movie.
It was a catastrophe.
@dajo Kudos to you! I've been trying to teach my gf to appreciate anime without any success.. :(
@stormcrow Awesome list! Gonna watch Tetsuo and I'm a cyborg tonight! :)
@sloth Word.
Watched Insidious yesterday, kinda cool dream themed movie about a young boy who hits his head and ends up in a coma and for some reason this makes him a magnet to evil spirits.
A little different from the usual ghost horror movie and I have to admit that I screamed like a little girl several times :P
-Abre Los Ojos (original Spanish film, Vanilla Sky was the remake)
-Inception
-Next
She also doesn't really appreciate it yet, but I just found out that she has watched princess mononoke before and liked it, so there's a start. :)Quote:

All Silent Hills (at least up to 4, no idea about the new ones) are related to dreams, specially the first. The movie sucks though :(
