Bah... Those are all tame..
For true mindfuckery, Find a good indy video rental store and ask for movies by Takashi Miike..
Audition starts out pretty dull for the first half, then quickly spirals into a Requiem For a Dream-style madness. Kirii, kirii, kirii...
Fudoh: The Next Generation is a kind of young gang wanting to take over power from their parents. Lot of issues involved, but check out the chick who can do the amazing deathly dart trick.
Happiness of the Katakuris is a fun romp. It's about a small bed and breakfast who are struggling to get on their feet, except all their guests keep dying, so they hide the bodies. Oh, and it's a musical.
Ichi the Killer is um... damn. Tough to explain this one. Involves lots of Yakuza and goes into the mentalities that surround Sado-Masochism. The lead guy is bad-ass, though.
Visitor Q! Wow, watched this the other night. Definately the most mind-fucking movie ever. It's a sort of study about the demise of the tradional family unit in Japan, which is saved by a visitor who destroys it. It makes sense in a strangely touching way. Necrophilia, lactating nipples, incest, heroin use, & microphone anal rape has never been funnier, though.
I still have more of Miike's (pronouced Mee-KAY) movies to watch, but he's amazing. I dare everyone (of age) to check out his stuff.
