Weird Movies

[Audrada Roibeardet]

I just finished watching "Vampire's Kiss" featuring Nick Cage and it was a weird one. It got me thinking about other weird films I've watched recently like "Tokyo Gore Police" and "Machine Girl". I don't know why but I'm drawn to the weird ones lately.

Are you into weird movies? If so, what films would you recommend?

[Vitxalmour Axhairsegol]

I'd say watch Betelgeuse it is in my opinion very weird

[Breneir Tzaracomprada]

Predestination (Ethan Hawke, Sarah Snook) is one movie I like that is weird.
Delicatessen is a movie I actually once woke up in the middle of the night to on the TV. So weird I was up for the rest of the night...
Also, Mr. Nobody (Jared Leto) A friend of mine actually went home halfway through the movie...

[Bråneu Excelsio, UrN]

I think "Rubber" is top tier.
Also "Killer Clowns from Outer Space" has a soft spot in my heart.
"Pi" (1998) too.

[Audrada Roibeardet]

Rubber is on my list. Might watch it tomorrow.

[Tric'hard Lenxheir]

Donnie Darko

[Iason Taiwos]

Any of Alejandro Jodorowsky's movies (I like The Holy Mountain, El Topo, and Santa Sangre.) Some of those Japanese cyberpunk movies like Tetsuo the Iron Man and Pinocchio 964. I really like Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me and Eraserhead by David Lynch.

If you like Tetsuo the Iron Man, you might like Tokyo Gore Police and The Machine Girl. Tokyo Gore Police is off-the-wall bonkers. ;D

Repo Man is an interesting mix of sci fi and teen angst

[Carlüs Éovart Vilaçafat]

I love weird movies!

Repo The Genetic Opera
The Room
Memento
Dark City

If you want campy:
Attack of the southern fried zombies
Zombeavers

I know I have more, but that's off the top of my head.

Just saw "Dead Snow: Red vs Dead" is streaming free. Wouldn't say it's weird. It's just good old Nazi zombies vs Soviet zombies. Haha! Great movie for what it is. Might watch it again.

[Mic’haglh Autófil, O.Be]

Anything by Christopher Mihm (?)

Weresquito: Nazi Hunter is probably his best film that I've seen. Pure send-up of, yet loving tribute to, old B- and C-movies, including studio-dubbed dialogue.

rare exports (2010) finland. hilarious and funny. and finnish weird.

and of course the weirdest weirdness - inland empire (2006) by lynch. i saw it already thrice, once in cinema, two times from disc. three hours of total weirdity.

Watched Gummo last night, wouldn't watch it again.

Watched Gummo last night, wouldn't watch it again.

When I first met Vitxalmour Conductour (we worked at the same place), we started to get to know each other by loaning each other dvds of offbeat movies and then discussing them. One day he comes into work and says "Try to make it thru this one. This is one of the worst movies ever made." It was Gummo. Well, I watched it, and...I kind of liked it. I was almost afraid to admit it to him, since he seemed to think it was total trash. Well, he secretly liked it too. According to him, you can tell a lot about a person by how they react to Gummo. (?!) I'm still not sure what he meant by that, other than that anyone who likes it is probably a weirdo. (I guess we both are, we've introduced it to other people, and we're the only ones who've liked it.) (You think Gummo is bad, try making it thru "Kids".)
A couple of lousy ones I've watched lately..."Sharkansas Womens Prison Massacre" (starring Traci Lords) (terrible but somewhat entertaining), and "Werewolf Versus Yeti", a Paul Naschy Spanish film from the seventies. (The Yeti only appears in the last five minutes of the movie, and you practically can't even see it. I later read that the Yeti costume looked so bad, that they decided to film the battle scene in near total darkness so it wouldn't show.
