Typo.

"The Quiet Earth".

Edit: I just read the IMDB description of it, and it doesn't seem to be about dimensions or parallel universes.

I'm gonna disagree with these, since the other world in these movies is internal, a dream, the subconscious mind. It's not real and nobody actually goes there (except in BJM they do physically go inside so that sortof counts).
I disagreed with him aswell but I haven't seen those films, just knew the gist of them, or one or two of them anyway, so I couldn't form an arguement.

oh and props for the oldskool lyrics :D
It's not an alternate reality, it's an extension of reality. I read that Eternal Sunshine is about changing memories; well that's the same reality it's just a different way of looking at it.

Also, you said The Matrix (earlier), that's about virtual reality not alternate reality. A virtual reality is, again, an extension of reality.

Also, I know the tune those lyrics are from, but is the speeded up sample from a film or something? I'd like to see it if it is.
well it kinda depends on how you look at it, i suppose. you can limit yourself to a certain definition, or explore beyond it to find out theres actually a bit more than just 'scientific magic'.

:icon32: lack of better wording.
my point was, there are many facets to the whole "dimensions" aspect. read into it if it intrigues you

If you're interested in games and you haven't played it, I'd recommend giving Chrono Trigger a shot. It pulls off the whole time travel concept better than any other game I've seen.

Time travel doesn't really count, unless it's about parallel universes.

I have played that, though. I got stuck... (I just didn't know where one was supposed to go next. I got as far as the sewers...)
