Enter the Void is way too long - and I think there's an extended cut - but the first 30-40 minutes are a rush. It's dumb, but stylistically there's not much like it. Also, like 12 years ago, this hipster guy was talking to me about the film and referred to the director as "Jean-Baptiste Godard" and I've been losing my mind to that ever since. Climax is easily my favorite of his films, but as I suggested above the madness/dementia element I find uniquely unsettling.
