Visually Stimulating Movies

I'm compiling a collection of movies that are were created specifically to capture the audiences attention. I need more suggestions from members on Sherdog on anymore recommendations I should add.

So far I have included:

  • Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas
  • A Scanner Darkly
  • Spun
  • Crank
  • Natural Born Killers
  • Matrix Trilogy
  • Star Wars 1-6
  • Predator
  • Memento

I know that there should be more on that list, but that's all I can come up with for now.
And the way I define "Visually Stimulating" is by the way the movie can quickly change scenery without keeping the dialogue or action sequences repetitive.

300 was pretty stimulating. The blood spatter was pretty artistic.

In terms of Cinematography, I really liked Gattaca and Snow Falling on Ceders. Also, the visual design in the sci-fi film Sunshine was stunning.

Immortal

The Reaping (very good visually. Did a better job of getting a Silent Hill atmosphere than Silent Hill did)

+1 for "300".
