    alright dish it all out.. what have you seen which was just a really weird movie? made sense or not... just different.

    after you watch so many you kinda start looking for something different.

    if any one has seen hotel, that was a bit of a mind f***

    also osmosis jones (a kids movie but pretty different)

    cast your votes now....

    I remember seeing a weird film with Brad Pitt in it, with a big rocker haircut... I think david bowie was in it too although I might have imagined that. Johnny Something

    i wonder could that be Kalifornia??? just a guess.

    (to diverse a touch, brad pitt has done so many good movies, which i'd never even noticed til a year or so ago because i always had him pegged as something of a pointless pretty boy)

    Brazil is the first one that springs to mind. I'd say it's pretty scary inside Terry Gilliam's head.

    actually japenese films are usually satisfyingly different. 'Battle royale' kids? Sweet! :D

    I thought it was a piece of crap.
    The guy who lent it me claimed it had been banned in every country...yeah right.
    The Gas Station clown guy was fairly entertaining,but for the most part i couldnt care less who lived or died.nowhere near as shocking as led to beleive.
    Should have been Titled When Hillbilly Wrestlers Attack

    It hasn't gotten distribution in any country, apart from the States. His explaination makes it more mysterious, though. The truth just makes it sound dull.

    Labyrinth
    Scared the crap out of me when I watched it.
    :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,552 ✭✭✭✭GuanYin


    Mulholland Dr.
    My head still hurts just thinking about trying to find a plot

    Donnie Darko
    Excellent, excellent film...but you can wreck your head trying to figure out the timelines...

    Strange Days
    As marge simpson would say "hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!"


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,552 ✭✭✭✭GuanYin


    Was thinking about this on th ebus home today.

    Pi was good, but very very weird....

    Oh and Eye of the Beholder (Ewan McGregor and Asley Judd)
    .... The blurb on the back of the video and the actual film bear no resemblance whatsoever... and its weird to boot!!!!

    yeah...i love that one so much. I work in a vid shop though and i keep tellin the public it's so great and renting it out lots... but i ain't too sure they'll like it as much as some!?!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 123 ✭✭Ixidor


    vanilla sky, was weird.... it probably isn't the sort of movie your supposed to watch while intoxicated.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,219 ✭✭✭plastic membrane


    Lost Highway. Great film but ???????????

    Loads of David Lynch stuff is bloody wierd to be honest.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,882 ✭✭✭Mighty_Mouse


    Requiem for a Dream - "space monkeys only" warning should be applied


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 907 ✭✭✭tibor


    tampopo - crazy japanese film about eating noodles. heh

    the gods must be crazy - african tribe-guy finds a coke bottle, thinks it's a sign from the gods.

    videodrome - cronenberg weirdness. A tv show that's really an experiment that uses regular TV transmissions to permanently alter the viewer's perceptions by giving them brain damage.

    being john malkovich - a portal to inside john malkovich's head.

    <insert any david lynch film here>


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 593 ✭✭✭Carbiens


    quadraphenia-not so much wierd as just plain annoying, but still thoughrably watchable.

    as for changing the way i think, evangelion did that in a slight way
