Martha Marcy May Marlene too.
yeah, cos this is just a compendium type reference guide rather than a list of recommendations
I know your not a fan of it, but could Fight Club be added?
Thanks, I've been wondering whether to include Lynch and the mafia, which would open up various crime films to be added
INLAND EMPIRE
Mulholland Dr.
The Shining
These three deal in some way with ideas of secret societies, although they are about much more as well, especially in the case of Mulholland dr. Many elements present in Eyes Wide Shut are visible in The Shining, and even to an extent 2001: A Space Odyssey. You could even call 2001 the ultimate secrety society film, since it deals with the journey towards an unknown intelligence and the creation of a civilisation both connected to us and yet still unknown and enigmatic. Many Mafia films are about secret societies as well, such as Goodfellas and The Godfather films.
Yeah that's the trouble with lists like this- it has its share of duds
I remember many bad movies like:DaVinci Code,The ninth gate, Le pacte de loups or Il nome della rosa and a old french movie called Forces Occultes.
Like Vanina Vanini and massonic organisation in italian "Risorgimento" I suggest Nell'anno del signore.
I was just coming to that while seeking out others. This is a ripe subject for demonic goings on
nice idea and what about Rosemary's Baby?
