Oh, and in the middle of the night I woke up and realised that I should mention that the two Bunel's films, The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie, and The Exterminating Angel are great examples of magical realism. Both contain absolutely surreal elements that could be supernatural or explicable to some very extreme realism.
In The Discreet Charm the distinction between reality and dreams within dreams within a stage play is completely broken down through recurrence, whilst in The Avenging Angel a household becomes a prison by which nobody can enter or leave even to the point of thirst and starvation.
