Gozu
My good friend showed me this last night and it is one of, if not, my favorite movie(s). Eraserhead was surreal, but Gozu is ridiculously abstract and features some grand actors and even pretty good dialogue. It's mostly about suspense, and it's more of a psychological thriller than a classic 'horror' movie, but it's great. I am not even a fan of Japanese horror. In fact, i hate japanese horror, but this movie is great.
Gozu means cow head. And yeah, there is a man with a cow head in the film dripping snot onto a rug in a motel. It's pretty neat.

Depending on your interpretation, there is more than one meaning to Gozu. Much as Ichi the Killer was a meditation on the latent sadomasochism present in Yakuza culture, so is Gozu a film about that culture's repressed homoeroticism. For examples, see the young thug's longing to be together with his "Brother" and the boss's inability to... er, perform... without the aid of hard metal objects in the rear. Just a theory though, anyone care to debate it?
