I could go through and disqualify every movie you mention here. At least the ones I have seen. Just based on senseless violence, most of them are out. Most are pointless or idiosyncratic to the extreme. Entertaining at best.

Damn few of them ... I cannot give you the name of any really good movies.

genius these days.

The most recent good movie I've seen is It Follows from 2014.

One movie I thought was pretty interesting was "The Lost City of Z".
