10. Swiss Army Man
Swiss Army Man takes the premise of what might have happened if a castaway on an island after a shipwreck finds a dead body emitting hiccups-who he magically and inexorably befriends. The plot results in an absurd premise unfolding into an unforgettable exercise in loneliness, human connection, and looking for meaning in a seemingly indifferent world. The movie works through inventive visuals and humor to create existential themes that question social taboos and boundaries between life and death. As the relationship between the living man and the corpse evolves, it highlights the desire for acceptance and the struggle to reconcile one's identity in isolation.
