Hippo_Master Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 American Psycho is fucking weird, not quite as fucked up as the book though. Spike Jonze's three movies are weird but very good. Eraserhead is pretty insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newjacksm Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Wow, so glad some one has seen Eraserhead other than me..ERASERHEAD go see it now, it will either give you a headache or make you want to throw bricks at the TV because you dont know WTF is going on. Try and piece shit together and see what the director is trying to tell you... Remember SYMBOLISM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newjacksm Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Yeah well, from what I've learned in film study. A lot of people expect directors to throw everything at them and hand them everything, since hollywood has conditioned us to be that way.Eraserhead is not like that at all... A lot of symbolism/metaphorical shit in this movie that could drive people insane, if you're looking to challange your self to make sense of a movie, this is definitely it. If not if you are looking to sit back for a mindless movie and weird your self out then this could be it too, but don't try and make sense of it afterwords your going to cramp your brain.

Giant Ninja Robot Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Eraserhead was fucking WEIRD. And I like weird. But it was too intense for me. Gummo was also pretty crazy, the cat scenes pissed me off though.Try watching Dororo, weird anime plot turned into a live action movie. Frickin weird. I loved it http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dororoalso make note that I couldn't remember the name of it so I googled this: japanese movie demon baby sword armAnd even though we all loved it Fear and Loathing was weird.

For some weird reason I love it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capt. Morgan Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 Pretty much any David Lynch movie is going to be really weird and difficult to figure out. Lost Highway is another really weird one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexander Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Pi is definitely a strange movie, I've watched it a lot trying to figure it out, but some parts still evade me.I wouldn't really consider Requiem For A Dream to be weird, it's just really depressing. While it is a bit sensationalized, it always felt completely real to me, I've had some friends that were headed down that same path as the characters in the movie. Thankfully they came to their senses though.I Darren Aronofsky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuie Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Ya'll need to watch Primerhttp://www.imdb.com/title/tt0390384/If you think you followed every little thing, and understand every little bump in the movie watch it again.... You didn't!First time i was like... holy crap... i didn't catch all of that!Second time thought I caught it all.Third time. I did catch it all.It's a great movie, but it does a number on your head!And Memento http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0209144/That's just a "what the hell just happened" movie.

maestroelite Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 I've watched Synecdoche : New York 3 times and still don't really get it. Kaufman's other movies he's written can be a bit odd but overall brilliant too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
