Initial Research:
Below is a list of films I have watched to kick start my inspiration and ideas.
Altered States
A 1980 fiction-horror film based on a scientist who conducts experiments on himself with a hallucinatory drug and an isolation chamber and begins to experience disturbing physical changes
Dark City
A man struggles with memories of his past including a wife he cannot remember, in a nightmarish world with no sun. The world is run by 'The Strangers' who possess the ability to put people to sleep and alter the city and its inhabitants.
Oldboy
A man is kidnapped and imprisoned for 15 years without explanation. He is released equipped with money, clothes and a mobile phone. He is given 5 days to seek explanations and revenge, whilst his kidnapper has a greater plan to bring more pain and upset by tricking his (unknown) daughter to fall in love with him.
eXistenZ
The world's leading game designer is testing her latest game with a focus group, and as they begin, she is attacked by an assassin. She flees with a Ted, who is suddenly assigned as her bodyguard. Unfortunately, her pod, an organic gaming device that contains the only copy of the eXistenZ game program, is damaged. To inspect it, she talks Ted into accepting a gameport in his own body so he can play the game with her. The resulting game leads the pair on a strange adventure leaving the audience wondering is reality and what is the game. 
Goodbye Lenin
To protect his fragile mother from a fatal shock after a long coma, her young son Alex must keep her from learning that her beloved nation of East Germany as she knew it has disappeared. Alex and his sister revert the gaudy western decor of his mothers bedroom back to the dull & drab decor before her accident, dress in their old clothes, and feed her from old-labeled jars and even film fake TV reports in a bit to protect her from any shock.
