Recently watched Caligula and have been thinking of other movies equally as messed up (although would prefer to stay less porny and more cinematic).
1. Tin Drum
2. The Night Porter
3. Zardoz
4. Swept Away by an Unusual Destiny in the Blue Sea of August
5. Les Biches
6. The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie (or is this one just weird???)
7. Fellini Satyricon
8. Teorema ( I also want to include The Collector starring Terrance Stamp but it doesn’t seem nearly effed up enough to warrant it’s own entry)
9. Persona, Hour of the Wolf, Incubus (Yes I know Incubus really shouldn’t be here but it’s very weird in the same manner as the others)
10. Pretty much anything by Lina Wertmüller, Rainer Werner Fassbinder, Klaus Kinski, Werner Herzog, Dirk Bogarde, Luis Buñuel and……
Help me out here. I am looking for sick, weird, but awesome movies.
I keep coming up with them.. Wicker Man, The Libertine, ALAIN DELON!!! The Girl on her Motorcycle, Purple Noon….
+1 on Swept Away. I rented that many years ago, and still the weirdness clings to me.
For something a bit calmer, how about The Last Metro?
How about the Wild Angels? This came to my local theater. I got a ride with my sister and her friend and the friend’s father got into a conversation with someone in the theater on his way out and pulled us out of our seats. He made me me leave! Just when it was getting good! I have to admit I still haven’t seen the whole thing but it was promising. Teh Excorcist was pretty weird…
The Human Centipede is an excellent film that is way messed up. I love the guy that plays the doctor. Oldboy is a Korean film that is pretty funny.
