SIMILAR PICKS / A PERSONAL CONNECTION

If you loved The Apple, try these.

Phantom of the Paradise poster 01

Movie / 1974 / Comedy / Fantasy / Horror / Musical / Thriller

Phantom of the Paradise

Why this pick

Like The Apple, it turns the music business into a flamboyant, stylized nightmare, combining theatrical pop spectacle, gleeful camp, and a deliberately artificial dystopian sheen.

Voyage of the Rock Aliens poster 02

Movie / 1984 / Science Fiction / Comedy

Voyage of the Rock Aliens

Why this pick

Its aggressively neon rock-musical universe, broad comic energy, and proudly over-the-top performances make it a natural companion to The Apple’s surreal pop excess.

The Rocky Horror Picture Show poster 03

Movie / 1975 / Comedy / Fantasy / Horror / Musical / Science Fiction

The Rocky Horror Picture Show

Why this pick

This shares The Apple’s devotion to knowingly outrageous musical fantasy, sexual provocation, bizarre costumes, and the pleasure of surrendering to unapologetic camp.

Xanadu poster 04

Movie / 1980 / Fantasy / Science Fiction

Xanadu

Why this pick

Another 1980 pop fantasia where glossy songs, fantasy romance, roller-disco imagery, and charmingly strange tonal leaps matter more than realism.

Lisztomania poster 05

Movie / 1975 / Comedy / Fantasy

Lisztomania

Why this pick

Ken Russell’s feverish rock-opera approach offers the same collision of musical spectacle, religious imagery, erotic satire, and outrageous visual ideas.
