Carnival of Souls 1962
Follows the “woman in trouble” tagline that could also describe so many David Lynch movies. An eerie and uncanny series of events, sending a courageous Alice/Dorothy-esque character down a doomed rabbit hole of phantoms and paranoia.

Embrace of the Serpent 2015
Leans a bit heavily on the crutch of narrative convention, but still manages an effective parable of cultures in conflict and the painfully predictable patterns of human nature. An anthropological river odyssey that lands somewhere between Apocalypto, Fitzcarraldo, and Faya Dayi.
