I saw this short by chance last night and really enjoyed it. Well-executed concept with a distinctive visual style.

<An everyday love story set in the not so distant future sees blackbirds battling with technology, automatic palm readers and power cuts.

I looked for more content from Matthias Hoegg, but found that he's chosen a more profitable career as animator for hire. Still he's done interesting work for various corporate and non-profit clients.

Plague Dogs looks like a good example of an gritty cartoon for older audiences in the mold of Watership Down, but the viewing choices are a poor-quality fullscreen version or a cropped widescreen bluray

I watched these fine pieces of quinoa recently. Anyone know of similar "edgy" adult-oriented Western animation  from no later than the early '90s? I feel like it's kind of a specific niche. I plan on seeing Son of the White Mare and The Time Masters eventually, but I'm looking for something more gritty than those and Gandahar,

I've always felt like Karel Zeman provided the example for how fantasy movies should be presented. Unfortunately, they opted to pile on the naturalism instead.

Apparently they made a feature length sequel to this called "Spine of the Night". Was that one any good? Because I'm honestly not impressed with the writing or visuals in this short, it looks like it was made in MS Paint lol.

I've watched some Serbian movies recently and found this composer Aleksandar Ranđelović. I like his soundtracks, they sound very Balkan and interesting:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFEon4jnqXs
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0yJ5oAcEoPg
The latter one might sound more modern, but I like the incorporation of folk sounds in it

Also, some Japanese soundtracks I've been enjoying:
Goro Yasukawa - The Blood of Wolves OST (I love the 2 movies as well!)

I started watching Tokyo Gore Police but it was more disgusting than I expected. 

So instead I watched The City of the Dead, a tale of a remote New England village called Whitewood with a history of burning witches. Professor Christopher Lee advises his female student to go to Whitewood in order to research the practice of witchcraft and its societal fallout. The young girl agrees, traveling alone to the village on a foggy night to stay at the local inn. From there the story is mostly predictable -- there are better options for horror.

I need to find something better for tonight. I started watching a questionable giallo about a man who witnesses a murderer dumping a body off a pier, so he confronts and blackmails the murderer into killing his wife. Meh.

Most "Christian" film lists are far too broad because they simply praise the spiritual aspect of films that everyone already knows about. That said, one resource is Steven Greydanus who reviews for the National Catholic Register.

I can't come up with a list of 100 but here are some more titles for consideration

Legenda o knyagine Olge AKA The Legend of Princess Olga (1984)

A special place for a small-format video field dedicated, once upon a time, to video technique experiments, unorthodox art directions and/or kinetic performances.
As previously discussed this is a genre who has gotten a bit harsher to collect and research, there's some ways to start amassing a personal stash in a reliable way and check information regarding content creators, but in recent times these have gotten limited.
The IMVDb site is a good place to start although it seems its staff activity has halted, at least considering that community entries have been on hold for a year now, so it should probably be taken as an introductory resource rather than a golden rule.
Archive.org also features "small" batches of standard quality files, so it's also a most-see for new adventurers.

Featured here is one of the early products made by the famous Ninja Tune label, as the founders of said company Coldcut made a collaboration with Hexstatic to create a small Audiovisual single that shows the very early and pioneering technology of their own real-time video manipulation software, something also called video scratching as it remixes and manipulates video as it were a vinyl on a disc jockey table, with audio included. Something that just very recently has been considered a normal mark in video sites, and mostly as an evolution of golden age Youtube Poop which is at its earliest around 2007; Coldcut made

I do not know the general consensus, but I think music videos offer more freedom to some mavericks. Chris Cunningham, for example, was going to direct a screen adaptation for Neuromancer, but he left the project because he wouldn't get final cut approval. So yeah, some of them don't sell out. Some people still have dignity, unlike the poser >>733 mentioned.

Somewhat agreed but there's many excellent videos with only dancing, talking heads or just experimental techniques, usually combining rhythm and/or lyrics with the visual cues. It's music-oriented mini short films after all, narrative or performance.
One thing for sure is that i find hard to remember a video i liked that i didn't also like the song, just realized that and it seems hypocritical from my part.

A thread for Nordic cinema.

update: the second one was kinda bad, but the other ones were great (especially the first one)
There was this film I saw years ago about these wanderers somewhere in the nordic realms long, long ago. The struggles for their survival under harsh conditions against all odds was the primary scenario of the film. What struck me then and has stuck with me since was the final scene where the 5 remants made it alive, and then each of them had some kind of legendary symbol float up above them towards the overhead camera shot -- it was apparently that these 5 individuals were the core of some following nordic myth or legend.

Unfortunately I've forgotten what the name of the movie was, or even which language it was in. I've tried to locate it since, but to no avail. My guess is it was filmed in the 70's or 80's. I wish I could find it again.

Ring any bells, /film/?
any more recommendations, anons?

You don't expect to see a whodunit parlor mystery selected as a nation's top film, but that's what critics did in Finland. Inspector Palmu's Mistake is certainly an essential entry in the genre, smartly written with a coterie of compelling characters. But I'm not quite sure what the inspector's mistake was -- his one slip-up was being temporarily distracted after getting drunk during lunch.
