There are many film companies, but A24 is one of those few that is peculiarly distinguished by the risk it assumes in its productions. The studio does not only prioritize recovering its investment, but also telling a good story in the purest free style of cinema. “Everything everywhere at the same time” is a clear example that this house opens the door to strange ideas, a hallmark among most of his films.
In this way, far from the typical rankings of Netflix films and other platforms, here we leave you a list of the strangest feature films that the studio has brought us, organized from the most unique and casual to the most bizarre and full of chaos.

“ex-machine”
Only 3 protagonists: an android (Alicia Vikander), a millionaire genius (Oscar Isaac) and the winner of a visit (Domhnall Gleeson) to a research center. They will end up involved in an experiment that will show the darker sides of artificial intelligence. A good option to start with A24.
- Available in: Amazon Prime Video
“Good time”
If you thought you had already seen everything in the cliffhanger, you were wrong. “Good time” is basically the word ‘tension’ turned into a tape. A bank robber (Robert Pattinson) will do anything to free his brother from prison. A feature film that will not let you breathe.
“The lobster” (Lobster)
We raise the thermometer of the rare. A man is taken to a hotel where he must find a partner within 45 days. Otherwise, he will be turned into an animal of his choosing. “The lobster” starts off slow, but soon turns into an uncomfortable, hilarious story with an ending that will leave you thinking.

“The Sacrifice of the Sacred Deer”
From Yorgos Lanthimos, the same director of “The Lobster” and “The Favourite”, comes “The Sacrifice of the Sacred Deer”. Here, weirdness is attached to symbolism and a photography job that will blow your mind. It’s not for everyone, but it’s in this top of weird movies for a reason.
“The witch”
Terror could not be missing in this ranking. “The witch” is one of those few horror films that is not going to go down the easy path of sudden scares, much less that of disfigured monsters. Here the symbolism plays a more than sublime role that will leave you speechless every time it gets closer to the end.
“The lighthouse”
If you really want to see something strange and innovative, “The lighthouse” is the answer. Robert Pattinson and Willem Dafoe, a mysterious lighthouse on an island, and all shot in 4:3 square format. Need I say more?

“Midsummer”
Love her or hate her, there is no middle ground. “Midsommar” has a bit of everything: symbolism, more than strange scenes, rituals and an unexpected twist. A horror film that breaks the cliché of the night and takes place in the light of day with a remarkable performance by Florence Pugh before entering Marvel.
“Everything everywhere at the same time”
We made it to the top 1. “Everything everywhere at the same time” is quite possibly the weirdest, most awkward and most chaotic movie in A24’s entire history. We are facing the tape that used the concept of the multiverse in an exceptional way and that made a fool of Marvel with “Doctor Strange 2”. Laughter, tears, discomfort and guaranteed fun.
