Bush Doctor.

It's a bit old (1982), but check out the review on imdb.

I like Wes Anderson's films. They're all so strange and have amazing soundtracks.

the bowie songs in portuguese threw me for a loop in the life aquatic. i also really liked Where Do You Go To (My Lovely) in darjeeling limited/ hotel chevalier.

Spirited Away if you want a foreign film.

The Orphanage (also foreign) and nicely spooky.

The Usual Suspects if you like a little action with great story and actors.

The Dark Knight.

I did - but it was rather lacking in bizarre gynecological instruments for working on mutant women.

Three that I liked a great deal are

1. Off the Map

2. The Secret Life of Words

3. Quid Pro Quo

Caveat: I really only get enthused about movies in which primary characters are certifiably insane, possibly because I make no claim to any sanity myself. Each of these questions standard definitions of sanity.
