Films That Made You Wonder How They Got Made

I'm not talking about unnecessary sequels or remakes but passion projects that left you so confused that you couldn't explain them to anyone or even know how they were supposed to make you feel.

Thanks for your helpful examples.

The Suspira remake struck me as simply style over substance that had nothing to say. It struck me as a gore flick for people who normally think of themselves as too elitist to enjoy a good old fashioned b movie.

Vox Lux

Anything by Lars von Trier.

I remember how much I hated that mess of a film "Kids". I actually walked out it was such shit.

Great example. I remember thinking of how embarrassing that must be for everyone involved because they obviously thought they were making great art. I'd rather watch something that is unapologetically bad.

Saw Climax in theaters. Nothing but 30 minutes of choreographed dancing, followed by people freaking out on drugs. Nothing but nihilism.

Check out the podcast "How Did This Get Made". Stallone movies are prominent.
