Angel's Egg is a very odd film. It's really unlike any other anime I've seen. The best way I can think of to describe it would be: Imagine if a very surreal filmmaker like, say, Kenneth Anger or David Lynch became a gifted animator who happened to be obsessed with religious themes. Then imagine that they took massive doses of LSD before beginning production. Then you would have Angel's Egg.
