Other movies and directors in a similar style?

Haven't checked out all the 100+ posts, but one that might not have been mentioned is 'The Color of Pomegranates'.
Lots of symbolic elements, and has religious themes like 'The Holy Mountain', not to mention that the style of cinematography is very similar to Jodorowsky's film. Haven't seen Sergei Paradjanov's other works though, but I hear they are similar as well.

thx for this wonderful list.

shortly i have seen a brilliant film: Mind Game
it's a Japanese anime (so totally different style)
but it's the most close
film to the holy mountain I've ever seen.

also fantastically good:

Europa (Lars von Trier, 1991)

Dark City (Alex Proyas, 1998)

Ghost in the Shell (Mamoru Oshii, 1996)

Meshes of the Afternoon +
At Land (Maya Deren, 1943+1944)

Buffalo '66 (Vincent Gallo, 1998)

and to add an realy old one i like:

Statschka (Sergei Eisenstein, 1925) and of course

Bronenossez „Potjomkin“ (Sergei Eisenstein, 1925)

good thread. my contribution is one of my favorite films ever:

Heaven and Earth Magic: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jh0vVK9LpZU (excerpt)

some movies not mentioned:

Flip and Two Twisters (although it's a documentary, some parts reminded me of Fantastic Planet)

A Pool Without Water (reminds me of a japanese jodorowesque take on sex on some level)

Tampopo (insane japanese comedy about noodles)

Was geschah wirklich zwischen den Bildern? ("magic lantern, kaleidoscope, Phenakistoscope, Praxinoscope, etc.. History of early animation.") (definitely one of my favorite movies ever)

Transfert Per Camera Verso Virulentia (mostly cool experimental effects with lenses)

Vuk Jevremovic's animations (so called "live paintings")

Corruption of The Damned (George Kuchar is an obvious influence to John Waters)

Ratu Ilmu Hitam (aka Queen of Black Magic)

Heaven and Earth Magic (im never tired of recommending this amazing film, here's the synopsis: "The first part depicts the heroine's toothache consequent to the loss of a very valuable watermelon, her dentistry and transportation to heaven. Next follows an elaborate exposition of the heavenly land, in terms of Israel, Montreal and the second part depicts the return to Earth from being eaten by Max Muller on the day Edward the Seventh dedicated the Great Sewer of London.")

Bloodsucking Freaks (early Troma which has a kind of grotesque cabaret vibe to it)

Mind Game (seconded for being one of the most awesome movies ever)

Cat Soup (same as above, both the short film and the shorts)

Kemonozume and Kaiba (series from the same director of Mind Game and Cat Soup)

Die 120 Tage von Bottrop (Saló german parody)

Freakstars 3000 (another parody from this demented german director, this time with reality-shows)
