Well I'm horrible at recommending films because I always seem to forget what I've liked; so I only remember those I've actually rented. I don't really watch movies that much. But maybe try the following:
"Vengeance is mine!" - Japanese serial killer thing I liked. Religious themes.
"Man bites dog" - Belgian mockumentary. A very special kind of humour.
"Afterlife" - Well I liked it years ago, I got my lj-name from it. Very slow. Most people find it hella boring. I seemed to be inmune to this thing called 'boredom'.
And I guess some Kurosawa films might also be fine.
Yeah as it seems most of the films are japanese. I seem to have a very limited taste when it comes to films. I'm sure you'll find lots of interesting movies. Isnt there like a list there you might search ? I'm sure you'll just start reading it and saying; oh; I always wanted to see that, and that , etc.

Have fun!

Actually they gave me recommendations after I rated movies I've already seen. My queue list is pushing 100 so I think I'm set for the next half a year. lol
