Reading his essay on Blue Velvet greatly enhanced my enjoyment of that movie.

It seems like you've dug further into the subject than I have. The only other possibility that comes to mind for me is the Luis Bunuel film The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie. This may be a little more on the surreal side than some of the others films mentioned here, again I think Bunuel and the film 'movement' he was associated with is in a sense parodied in Infinite Jest.
