Movie - Cronos (1993)

In the 1500s, and alchemist creates a device that can grant eternal life. Fast forward to the 1900s, a wealthy dying man has been searching for it. An antique dealer and his grand daughter get involved in the destructive wake that follows the device.

I’ve heard that Guillermo del Toro (the director) attempts to fuse the literary style of the Magical Realists with his films. I thought that definitely came out in this one and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Great movie!!

Movie - Stay (2005)

This is one of my favorite movies ever. It is fascinating, confusing, intoxicating, engaging, and beautiful, at the very least. The first time I saw it, I had no idea what happened or what the plot was, and yet I still enjoyed it a great deal and could not wait to watch it again. Only after reading about it online did it begin to come together for me. Now every time I watch it I see and understand more and more details that all lead to an amazing ending, both tragic and exquisite.

That said, this movie is not for everyone. In fact, I suspect that most people would not like it. If you like brain twisting, alternatingly bleak and powerful, psychological twisters, then I highly recommend this movie.
