I cannot recommend Valhalla Rising enough. It’s visually amazing (every frame of the film is staged as if it’s a painting) and thoroughly unique. It looks so much like a series of paintings that I’m not sure more than two people moved during each shot until the last 15 minutes of the film. The action/violence in the movie is also some of the best around.
