[macjay18]

My selection would include the following....freddy got fingered, gummo, bad boy bubby and Donnie Darko.

What do you think was so weird it bamboozled you and wowed you with its extreme antics

[hippifried]

Putney Swope.

[GroobySteven]

Sante Sangre

[rockabilly]

Donnie Darko is great.

[wadeintheslade]

I thought Donnie Darko was overhyped and kind of pretentious
Can't wait for Chris Cunningham to make a feature though, just watch Come to Daddy or Rubber Johnny (maybe even All is Full of Love) and you'll se why I'm excited.

[droog]

gummo
the scene where they destroy the chair is epic.

if you liked gummo, try julien donkey-boy.

[EdelweissFan]

Eraserhead

Strangest (and at times funniest) movie I've ever seen. It launched David Lynch's career. He wrote/directed Dune, Wild at Heart, Blue Velvet, and his masterpiece, The Elephant Man, plus the strange TV series Twin Peaks, before his career petered out.

But Elephant Man is one of the greatest films of all time, and despite being a conventional narrative, lots of the strange techniques in it are already visible in Eraserhead.

[Odelay]

Interesting thread....

"Kissed" with Molly Parker (1996)

If you read the premise, i.e. girl who goes to work in a funeral parlor and starts having sex with the dead corpses, you'll probably run away, but you'll miss a good movie. As bizarre as it is, the filmmaker makes a really fascinating movie. The necro-sexual element is more or less a vehicle in which to explore people's wide view of sexuality. Parker is fantastic.

[macjay18]

Yeah Elephant man is pretty weird, anyone seen the movie 'freaks'

[EyeCumInPiece]

id say

1. Requiem of a dream

2. Toxic Avenger

3. Fear & Loathing in las vegas

[tsslutboy]

Riki Oh The Story of Ricky

[Dino Velvet]

Alejandro Jodorowsky(El Topo, The Holy Mountain, Santa Sangre)

Jörg Buttgereit(Nekromantik, Nekromantik 2, Der Todesking)

plus an endless amount of Asian movies.

If you like weird movies, this company puts out some great stuff. http://www.mondomacabrodvd.com/start.html

[bte]

Anatomy of Hell, it was weird and some parts were like "What the hell?" For example, when the guy stuck a rake I think in the woman's ass while she was sleeping. I was thinking to myself, "Who does that?"

[francisfkudrow]

Mirrormask, Silent Hill and of course Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me, are all weird in a good way.

The Doom Generation is weird in a bad way.

[EyeCumInPiece]

Riki Oh The Story of Ricky

Great fucking choice!!! I shouldve thought of that.

[Bobzz]

We had sort of a rainy day odd flick festival sometime ago, none of the movies seemed to make any sense individually but collectively, they just happened to work well

Repo-Man;

The Adventures of Buckaroo Bazai Across the 8th Dimension;

The Fifth Element; and

Brazil

Of course it helped that we were all stoned and drunk (and occasionally naked)

[rockabilly]

Orlando w/ the lovely Tilda Swinton

[Quiet Reflections]

Mirrormask, Silent Hill and of course Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me, are all weird in a good way.

The Doom Generation is weird in a bad way.

i love The Doom Generation but it is weird

[Distance]

This is not about the most shocking movie I have seen, but this is about th best I ever have. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3M32xgAALhU



If you happen to watch this movie, now, it will change your perspective on life. It is so very powerful and emotional. There is just no other movie like this.

[krupaman]

Mine would be Glen or Glenda originally titled I Changed My Sex. Next in line would be Andy Warhols movie called Trash.

[muhmuh]

[rockabilly]

Oh and Meet the Applegates.

[wadeintheslade]

Visitor Q is good too

[macjay18]

I thought Kids was pretty whacked, these crazy kids were out of control, another bizarre Gus Van Sant film. Oh yeah, Orgazmo was pretty dang weird too, dressing up in these space costume and having a big floppy dildo as a gun haha.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NAtt1bhzN4

[hippifried]

I have to reiterate Putney Swope.
Pi was a real strange flick.
Loved Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas.
& of course I can't leave out Dr. Strangelove.

[droog]

Pi was a real strange flick.

strange, but excellent at the same time.

and i'm going to take you up on putney swope.

[Blazr63]

Blue Velvet. Dennis Hopper's come back role in David Lynch's twisted world. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090756/

[Dino Velvet]

Visitor Q is good too

Yes it is. Makes you thirsty for milk after seeing it.

Takashi Miike has made lots of weird movies like Ichi the Killer, Gozu, Imprint, Sukiyaki Western Django, Full Metal Yakuza, Deadly Outlaw: Rekka, and The Great Yokai War. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0586281/

[RubyTS]

this was easily the most retarted movie ever

[eclipsemint]

Some of the weirdest movies are the most memorable. Especially if you don't understand it fully and have to invest some grey matter to make sense of it.
My two favourite quirky movies are...

[tsslutboy]

any Dolemite movie

[dderek123]

ichi the killer
audition

[stephenward]

Tough to choose...

Liquid Sky - a pretentiously bad, but really weird and slightly wacky movie
Eraserhead, Mulholland Drive - David Lynch's first weird movie, and maybe his best weird movie
The Adventures of Buckaroo Bazai Across the 8th Dimension - definitely one of the most hilariously wacky movies
Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Brazil, The Adventures of Baron Munchausen, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas - great weird, wacky films from Terry Gilliam
Plan 9 from Outer Space - so seriously bad, wacky and weird that it's good... as a comedy
Raising Arizona, Barton Fink, The Hudsucker Proxy - the Coen brother's forays into the weird and wacky

[the_bo]

for me its Un chien andalou and adventures in the forbidden zone a film by oingo boingo

[dirty1002]

shakes the clown is the best.
"I GOT A PEANUTBUTTER PUSSY CREAMY BROWN AND EASY TO SPRED"

[techi]

Brazil

[jaycanuck]

Someone said it but Requiem for a Dream is fuuuuuucked up.

[transmaven]

Alucarda. Very great and genuinely strange film.

[rockabilly]

Lesbian Vampires ... Hawt

[Dirky]

El Topo
Eraserhead
Gummo
Cafe Flesh
The Sinful Dwarf
Last House On Dead End Street

[eclipsemint]

Ooo...forgot one...Time Bandits

A great little Monty Python-esque movie. The giant with a ship for a hat.

And Labyrinth. With a very young (only 16) but cute Jennifer Connelly. The bog of eternal stench. Brilliant.

[GroobySteven]

ichi the killer
audition

Oooh nice.
Did you see "Dark House" ? A really cool Korean dark thriller in the same vein?

[droog]

seanchai, did you mean to say black house? if so, that movie was excellent. ichi the killer was also very good.

but.....

oldboy has got to be the best movie to come out of korea imo.

[rockabilly]

Old Boy was supposed to get an american remake ... but dont know what the status of it is. That hammer fight was brutal and one long take.

[eclipsemint]

Oh, and speaking of brutal, the scene at the beginning of Pan's Labyrinth, you know the one with the german officer attacking the prisoner with a glass bottle? Yeccch.

[rockabilly]

You want brutal ... Watch Teeth. ... Vagina Dentata ... Nuff said

[Clind]

π (AaronofskY)
2001 Odysseia (Kubrick)
Lost Highway (Lynch)

[eclipsemint]

ANY Peter Greenaway movie...such as:

The Belly of An Architect
Drowning By Numbers
The Cook The Thief His Wife And Her Lover.

[bustedm]

No one mentioned City of Lost Children yet?

It's weird and cool at the same time...
