Highly subjective to one's perceptions, of course.
David Lynch made such aspects of
Eraserhead acceptable though his enticing surreal vision, high on atmosphere and visual provocation.
(
Un Chien Andalou).
Likewise, Lucio Fulci 'gets away with' inexplicable contrivances and spontaneous plot shifts - partly because
The Beyond is a 'Fulci film', and partly because his work is quintessential 80s Italian gore also loaded with atmosphere and visual provocation.
It's horses for courses - many find
The Beyond inoffensive in its loose plotting, yet decide some of Lynch and Takashi Miike's work is pretentious and baffling.
