Koyaanisqatsi. Every shot held a sense of wonder.

Ohhhhh Yeah! A one of a kind and one my favorites too and one of my best films of all time. Many films are unique and I would choose Peter Jackson's Heavenly Creatures - 94'.
I liked "Heavenly Creatures" and I think it's interesting that you can see a leap in Peter Jackson's maturity from his previous features "Dead Alive" and "Meet the Feebles", which were both pretty juvenile if highly spirited and wildly inventive. |

I've never seen anything else quite like WR Mysteries of the Organism.

Dogville (2003) springs to mind.

Yes, I saw that movie. If I recall, he covers his demented mother in Saran wrap. It was a very unusual movie. But I liked it. |

That one's definitely unique. I've heard people argue that it shouldn't even qualify as a film. It's basically an audiobook, though technically there is a visual element.

Four Shades of Brown (2004) Thomas Alfredson Watched it just once, but I remember I found it very unique.  |

I know I could probably come up with better but as the Animation Princess, I'll go with It's Such a Beautiful Day for now. I'll add more should I think of them.

That's true, it was broadcasted on BBC Radio 3 and released as an audiobook. But I think it is a remarkable piece of work theatrically, evocative and powerful. You are viewing and listening to a man's final moments. the blue screen depicting his world and we are there to share it with him. This is his world through his eyes. Tragic, painful, humorous and uplifting.
