Surreal: Surreal defines something that is on the brink of being unexplainable. Something Surreal, or Surrealism, is what makes things in life different. It makes things stand out. It makes you think, “Is that possible?” Something surreal cannot be, or can almost not be, described.
Dude… Your painting looks so surreal. Its like fake but real…

Popular usage has transformed the word "surreal" into litle more than a synonym for "weird", and so rendered it useless. I'll use "surrealistic" if a film (or any work of art) exhibits mannered mimicking of superficial aspects of the visual style of the original Surrealists between the wars (commonly, cribs from Dali, Magritte, Chirico, Bunuel or Cocteau). In all other cases I prefer more specific terms, like "dreamlike", "Nightmarish" or "Bunuelesque". I'd reserve "surrealist" for the output of members of recognized Surrealist groups.
Everything is so surreal.
