964 Pinocchio

 

964 Pinocchio (1991) is a cyberpunk body horror film directed by Shลzin Fukui. The film tells the story of a memory wiped cyborg slave who after being discarded by his owners, wanders through an urban wasteland and meets a homeless woman suffering from memory loss and together they descend into a hallucinatory nightmare of identity, control, and transformation.

Fukui's film is a visceral assault on the senses, blending surreal imagery, kinetic handheld camerawork, and industrial noise into a fever dream of dehumanization and decay.

964 Pinocchio stands as a cult landmark of Japanese cyberpunk cinema, exploring the collapse of the body and mind in a dystopian, post-industrial world. It is widely considered as one of the best examples of the underground Japanese Cyberpunk genre.

Putney Swope (1969)


When its chairman dies, an advertising firm's executive board must elect someone to fill the position. Each member, unable to vote for himself, casts a secret ballot for Putney Swope (Arnold Johnson), the firm's only black executive, assuming he wouldn't receive any votes from the other members. But once in power, Swope makes radical changes to the firm -- like keeping only one white employee and refusing to advertise harmful products -- all under the firm's new moniker, "Truth and Soul, Inc."

Directed by Robert Downey Sr. in 1969, what unfolds is a chaotic, funk-infused critique of capitalism, hypocrisy, and the commodification of rebellion itself. Shot in stark black-and-white with bursts of surreal color, Putney Swope dances between absurdity and truth-using rhythm, satire, and unfiltered energy to mirror a society selling both progress and illusion.
