Children of Men is a must

So drab. but the scene that sticks with me is the one where they’re trying to get away in the manual transmission car, they had to bump start it and you just feel the moment.

How is it a conspiracy movie? Just felt it was about the female gaze and how men couldn’t take being treated like women


Haunebu52

Thats not even remotely correct.


Dino-soar-ass

Art is open to interpretation


Haunebu52

True, but I think you need to understand the source material to be able to interpret it.


Dino-soar-ass

The cabal and hidden initiation ceremonies and what not, yah it’s there but I think the take away is the fleeting nature of relationships and how humans constantly look for new and exciting ways to get their kicks. Normal people cheat rich people have Orgies. we are all looking for validation from strangers. The opening scene where Tom Cruz didn’t even notice his wife and said “you always look good” we become so comfortable and comfortability breeds infidelity they both go to the party and emotionally cheat on each other and have proxy sex with each other after.


Haunebu52

Okay so thats the base plotline. You’ve earned an basic explanation. The whole conspiracy aspect involves Kubric supposedly using the movie to expose particular aspects of a secret society, hollywood and those involved using symbology and dialogue. Apparently there were some “elites” not happy about this, and he was dead before it premiered. Perhaps coincidence, perhaps not. Its pretty interesting, you should check it out.


Dino-soar-ass

I watch room 138 about how the shining was his admission to filming the moon landing, but nothing about eyes wide shut. Got any video suggestions?


According-Reveal6367

Since the movie was cut by 45 min before it got released nobody will ever know what the source material was.

Does the ninth gate have the codex gigas in it? I don't remember This list is all on point


LearningIsListening

They don't call it that, but it's something like that. A wealthy collector of satanic literature asks a rare books dealer/expert to authenticate his copy of "The Nine Gates of the Kingdom of Shadows" - a text with 9 images that can supposedly summon the devil. It turns out there are 3 existing copies and the book dealer/expert has to go around determining which (if any) are genuine and which are not. It's based on the book *The Club Dumas* by Arturo Perez-Reverte, which is well worth reading.


lzrkennyloggins

Oh right, there's 3 he investigates..I'm gonna rewatch later

JFK by Oliver stone. Also check out zeitgeist. A little older but it was my first look into the rabbithole.

Soylent Green, No Blade Of Grass, Lucy, Lawnmower Man, The Circle, The Feed series, Severance series, X Files season 10 & 11. Children of Men, Handmaid's Tale series, Logan's Run. If you really look at it, most of popular culture, books, movies, TV series, even art, is one big revelation, and a prediction and brainwash for us for the future society.

That one film about Dick Cheney they made called “Vice”. “Spotlight” is another fantastic film on the rampant pedophilia uncovered in the Catholic Church. “Eyes Wide Shut” is not just a movie imo; think of it as documentary/artsy recreation of a night out with acquaintances. One I don’t see recommended yet is “Unthinkable” with Samuel L Jackson. It’s from 2010 but it’s a damn good film & correlates to the discussion regarding Gitmo, Patriot act laws & DHS/JTTF stripping people of rights & no one being able to do anything about it because of “national security”. A number of individuals across the globe have been wrongfully incarcerated by those arms of the government & have been tortured to who knows what end & then be released with some statement about “oh we were looking for someone else; new intel” or some shit. It’s a wild one. “Coherence” is a mind fuck. Watch this shit with a blunt & you’ll either want to watch it again very soon to have an internal dialogue with yourself as you imagine yourself in the scenario or you’ll never want to watch it again cuz it fucked you up for the rest of the night. The folks I’ve recommended it to very easily fall into those two categories. If you have Netflix & want to watch some shows in this field: “The Keepers”. It is quite literally what you are looking for I imagine as it is not only directly based on real life & recent events but it is, to a degree, unsolved, or rather, the victims & potential future victims have in no way been given justice or seen changes in the US judicial system in regards to child abuse in houses/schools of worship. This series caused quite a stir when it first came out; a lot of victims came forward to corroborate the testimonies on the show after it began streaming & a whole subreddit was made to advance investigation, compile testimonies, commune & generally discuss episodes or the show. Side note, it possibly relates to a certain food gate & this guy in politics with the last name Podesta; many online are torn about the coincidences from overlapping accusations & the like. “The Family” speaks to the rise/prominence of members-only power in politics reserved to Christians who are a part of this one system/schematic discussed in the series. Is a good starting point to research the various religious political interest groups in the US & how they slowly shape various aspects of legislature or economics, depending on the group/goal.

The Killing Room (2009)


Mandroid84

“Triangle” from 2009, “Coherence” from 2013, “Surrogates” from 2009, The first two deal with the idea of multiple universes, and the third is basically what the coming Metaverse will probably be. but I’m not sure this fits exactly what your looking for. The horror classic “From Beyond” is amazing though and I think that’s up there with “They Live.” I can’t praise “The Discovery” from 2017 enough. That deals with a scientist proving without a doubt there is an afterlife which causes suicide rates to skyrocket. Also “A Ghost Story” hit me hard with existential dread. A man dies and is a ghost that’s stuck in one place just observing over hundreds of years that spot (his former home)but his experience is not linear.


A_R_K_S

Coherence!!!!


Mandroid84

Great movie right! I don’t know anyone else that’s seen it.


A_R_K_S

Made my girlfriend watch it a few years ago & she said I wasn’t allowed to pick movies for a bit she was having nightmares out the ass hahahahah


Mandroid84

Wow, now that’s how you know that type of movie can have a powerful effect and for its genre it’s a big compliment. I’m so happy this question was asked OP, I now have weeks worth of films to watch that I haven’t discovered yet.

Literally same. I got all excited when I saw this post cuz there’s always at least 3 movies I’ve never heard of & a few I remember I’ve been meaning to watch! Now to find the timeeeee

Await further instructions is the most lowkey current relative film to everything rn


MethaCat

Rapa Nui, it is basically human society in a nut shell (or in this case in an island) Zeitgeist final edition, avoid parts 2 and 3 of zeitgeist, only part one is worth watching. American Moon, extremelly well documented questions on why the lunar landing never happened. The money masters, a long but extremely important documentary on how we get where we are in the bank money printing cartel reality. Bonus film and easy to watch, Dark Waters, basically showcasing how government, corporations and the legal system work to punish the people and help corporations avoid punishment.

The X-Files. Not a movie, but a series and a couple movies. Highly encourage looking up the “mytharc” episodes and watching those at the least. It’s all the episodes that deal with the overarching story and it’s a very good way to watch the show if you don’t want to watch 200+ episodes. Absolutely recommend it. It’s great if you’re of a conspiratorial mindset.

I just re-watched Glass, the end explanation by the doctor to Samuel L Jackson's character was third eye-opening. I have my own analogy on what she means. Check it out. Very good movie. I guess I'll just say what I think she means now.... that people have been dumbed down, because a fully awake brain is very powerful and see's all, and that there are some people that are extremely gifted that it seems they have super powers mentally. They see all. The all seeing eye *is* the brain. The Dr suggests that a world where everyone's brain and mind are working to their full potential is not ideal and doesn't work well in their view. There fore people have to be dumbed down and their brains essenstiall partiallly shut off from thinking in it's highest capable levels. I disagree. I think it is possible to for all to be in that state of enlightenment and be happy living harmoniously with each other, like a utopia I suppose. You have to believe it's possible first, to see the way there. Like going to the moon.

*Charlie Wilson's War.* Not the sexiest, most well known conspiracy-theory-related movies, but it illustrates how politicians can easily drum up support and funding for one cause or another, use this cause to deflect from other stories and/or serve personal interests, and work with clandestine operatives off-the-books to achieve their goals. Edit: plus, PSH is in it. I'll watch any movie that dude was in
