Other similar films?


Trying to compile a list of psychedelic/beautiful/obscure animated films of the past for a comprehensive list. I'm thinking specifically 'head films' if that term could be said to apply (and I believe it certainly could). If anyone would like to add any recommendations, feel free. If people enjoyed this film I think they would also really like

-Fantasia (obviously)
-Yellow Submarine (also rather obvious)
-Feherlofia/The Tragedy of Man (Scandinavian films, I believe. Same director. AMAZING animation, very colorful)
-The Point! (Harry Nilsson 1970's children's film)
-Felidae (German animated film for adults about a cat detective)
-Ralph Bakshi's work in general (Coonskin/Heavy Traffic/Wizards/Fritz the Cat/American Pop specifically)
-Fantastic Planet/Gandahar/Time Masters (all by Rene Laloux)
-Belladonna of Sadness (Japanese "hentai" that's actually quite lyrical and stunningly drawn)
-Neo Tokyo/Robot Carnival (great Japanese anime anthology films of the late 80's/early 90's
-Shame of the Jungle/B.C. Rock (Ralph Bakshi + Russ Meyer = Picha. These two are hilarious)
-Heavy Metal (a classic)
-Mind Game/Paprika (mindbuggery anime from Japan, excellent brain-twisters)
-DJ Q-Bert's Wave Twisters (turntablism animation)
-Animalympics
-1978 Fantastic Animation Festival
-Vampires in Havana
-Flight of Dragons
-Gwen, the Book of Sand
-Nezha Conquers the Dragon King

This is all off the top of my head. Would love to hear what others say...
