Cross-media picks for King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard fans — films, series, games and books in the same vein.
If you love King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard, these picks share territory that fans tend to gravitate toward: music treated as a cosmic or elemental force, creatures lurking at the edge of the frame, worlds that turn out stranger than advertised, and the particular pleasure of watching genre boundaries dissolve.
