Much appreciated!!
Dogville by Lars Von Trier maybe?
Antichrist could have been a good movie, but it seemed that Lars wanted to get R-rating for violence. Could have been much better.
Altough not yet released, Melancholia (2011) promises to be a good movie from the same director.

I found these two great titles, ''The Box'', and ''Fe'' I want to watch, and looks something Tarkovsky lite (director the same as ''Clone Returns Home'')
Looks like they have been traveling around festivals, and not released before. One movies is from 90s, and second was made in 2003.
And price for both movies seems pretty cheap. (Both movies together sells like for 20 $)
Trailers can be found here.

Am I really the first one to mention the most visually-oriented of them all, Peter Greenaway? In his films, the visual experience is often at least as important, if not more, than the plot itself... try especially his early pseudo-documentaries...

Hmmm?
Roman Polanski's Chinatown
share
For me I think Elem Klimov's Come and see (1985) is definitely right up there with Stalker and Satantango on visually stunning films
So many scenes from 'Come and see' have stuck with me for many years. That has to be the mark of a great movie when so many scenes fail to leave your head.
Some other movies that I highly recommend are,
Kes (1985) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0064541/
Ratcatcher (1999) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0171685/
Can't believe no-ones mentioned a Nicolas Roeg film!
Walkabout
Performance
Don't Look Now
The Man Who Fell To Earth
All absolutely stunning in both concept and execution of visuals
Always found Uli Edel's relentlessly grim Christiane F and Last Exit To Brooklyn strangely arresting as well.
They're not the greatest films ever but The Acid House and Gangster No1 are both sumptuous to look at, and both directed by Paul McGuigan.
