If you're looking for some new and interesting movies to watch this winter break look no further. Here's a list of the most bizarre and interesting movies available for your viewing pleasure on Netflix.

1. Cruel & Unusual:

If you like a movie that makes you think, you'll love "Cruel & Unusual." Set in a bizarre and trippy prison, our main character is accused of killing his wife and in a twist of events he finds himself in an odd predicament that neither he nor the audience can fully understand. The movie will really play with your mind and your perceptions of reality and mortality, a great watch on a calm cold night.

2. White Rabbit:


Another movie that has the audience questioning reality. This movie surrounds a troubled boy with a mental disorder that prevents him from knowing what is real and what's only in his head. It draws attention to the need for better premeditative psychiatric care in the wake of increasingly violent acts across the U.S. It's a modern commentary on violent tragedy that gives its viewers a new viewpoint and has them guessing on what is real and what isn't with a chillingly ambiguous ending.

3. Frank:

A musical genius with a papier-mâché head leads a band of misfits on a bizarre and unconventional retreat to create a new album. They find themselves spending more time than they thought creating the perfect sound for their mentally unsound leader in this quirky film that is equal parts funny and weird with some serious undertones.

4. Dirty Girl:

.

A promiscuous teen and her unlikely gay best friend are cast out in a movie set in a heavily-religious Oklahoma town in the late 80s. When her overtly sexual attitude leads her to be placed in special ed, she meets her unlikely new best friend after being forced to parent a bag of flour together. The two set out to find her long-lost absentee father and their playful road trip makes for a fun movie that gives you all the feels.

5. Enter the Void:


A psychedelic trip in movie form, Enter the Void shows an intense trip through the eyes of the main character in a surreal first person view. Watching the movie through it's entirety is nothing short of a challenge as we witness the most insane trip of all time: death. We watch as our main character transitions from life to death and what he sees is nothing short of incredible. A movie like you've never seen before to challenge the audience and their ideas of what the afterlife entails, not a movie for those who aren't up for the challenge.

5. TiMER:

What if you could find out the day and time you'll meet your soulmate? "TiMER" is based on the premise that when you're old enough, a device can be placed on your arm that starts counting down to the day you're supposed to meet your soulmate. Only problem is that if your soulmate doesn't have a timer your countdown won't begin. Our main character has had a blank timer for years and we watch her struggle as she tries to find her perfect match in a quirky and fun film with a new twist to the classic rom com genre.

7. The One I Love:


A couple once madly in love faces struggles in their marriage and their therapist suggests a couples retreat. What happens once they get there is incredibly strange and leaves the couple with more confusion than answers. The premise is a plot twist and leaves the audience guessing on the reality of the seemingly perfect weekend getaway, another movie with an ambiguous ending that leaves you wanting more.

8. Oculus:

A horror movie that'll make you think twice about looking in the mirror. "Oculus" depicts a brother-sister duo determined to prove the dangers of this mysterious mirror that claimed their childhood years ago. This sister is hell-bent on proving to the world what dangers lie beneath the glass and through this wild journey of a movie we're forced to decide what side of the mirror we're looking from as the demented wall fixture plays mind games with us all.

9. Welcome To Me:


Kristen Wiig like you've never seen her before in a serious movie as her character battles a mental disorder that isolates her from those around her. Barricaded in her little home she obsessively plays the lottery until one day she wins. Her first big purchase? Her own TV show where she lets her unusual personality shine through in televisions weirdest show where she says anything and everything that comes to her unstable mind.

10. Rubber:

A homicidal tire is on the loose that kills anyone in its way. The plot of the story makes very little sense and keeps you wondering what will happen next the whole way through. Who knew a tire could be so scary?

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
