There's good incoherency and bad incoherency. For example:
Eraserhead: "What's the deal with the radiator? Why's the baby all lizardy? Who's that guy and why did he make a pencil eraser out of his head? Why is is hair like that?"
Good incoherency. Raises questions about possible symbolic or otherwise narritively challenging ideas or events. And hairstyle choices. I guess.
The Beyond: "Why the hell are spiders eating him all of a sudden? Why did that guy just hook a 50 year old corpse up to a brain monitor? If the incorporeal force of evil can just kill people whenever it wants, why doesn't it just do that with the main characters? Why are people going blind with no explanation and no relevance or connection to any sort of plot point?"
Bad incoherency. Raises questions about basic plot development and character motives. No discernable connection between most plot points.
