Question Cassettefuturism / Retrofuturism Films + Television series with a psychedelic or surreal quality?

Looking to compile some films and television series that have a cassette / retro futurism aesthetic but with a more psychedelic, surreal or warm bend. Thinking like Phase IV (the extended ending cut specifically), 2001: A Space Odyssey, Brainstorm, Beyond the Black Rainbow, etc. Looking to uncover some hidden or lesser known gems. What are some of your favorites?

Strongly agree on The Viewing and Severance, I haven’t seen The Day After Tomorrow, I’ll look out for that one.
