What is the weirdest cult movie you have ever seen?

[ControlFreak 0]

Pink Flamingos changed me, and not in a good way.
Kentucky Fried Movie, Groove Tube, and Tunnel Vision were three of my favorite non-mainstream features.

Alcohol never really solved any problems. But then again, neither did milk.

Natural Born Killers .... Juliette Lewis and Woody Harrelson.

Life is short ... jump often.

I also liked Donnie Darko. I've been told I should check out Eraserhead, but so far haven't. Pretty much anything by David Lynch is going to be pretty odd. I still think his version of Dune is the best.

I think Lynch's masterpiece is "Mulholland Drive"(2001).
I watched it 3 times in a week, and still not satisfied that I understood it, went searching and found an essay by a grad student, that put the pieces together. For those who have yet to watch it, a clue: There is a sharp transition point in the film. Everything before that is different from everything after.

I've watched that movie several times. I could watch it a couple of times a week for the rest of my life and probably still not get everything there is to know about it.

"Lost Highway"(1997).
This Lynch film almost looks like a warmup for "Mulholland Drive". It is Robert Blake's last film, and his role is *really* creepy!

Just a little taste

I'm trying to teach myself how to set things on fire with my mind. Hey... is it hot in here?

Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

I've always imagined the first question asked during jury selection in Robert Blake's criminal trial:

Defense attorney: "Have you ever watched 'Lost Highway'?"

Potential juror: "Yes."

Defense attorney: "Your honor, we would like to excuse this juror!"

I like Cannibal! The Musical. Early Trey Parker and Matt Stone film about gold miners traveling from Utah to Colorado who get lost in the wilderness and resort to cannibalism. A joint venture with Troma Entertainment, so there are some really corny gore effects.
And it's a musical to boot!

Wow, there are so many more strange movies out there than I realized. I guess I'll have to check some of these out.

Although, maybe, just maybe, we can all agree that the most FUN one is Rocky Horror Picture Show?

Well, I've never seen anyone dress up in costume and dance in the aisles for any other film.

I wouldn't say it's the weirdest, but it's definitely one of the darkest, and this is as good a place as any to recommend it (rather than starting another thread).

In Bruges.

At one time, I thought it was Donny Darko (which I enjoyed, strangely enough) , but just suffered through Cool World.

This takes the cake. How about you?

Darko messed me up a bit...

I was pretty young when cool world came out. I saw it with a buddy of mine on a rainy summer wednesday afternoon...we were the only ones in the theater. It was a blast...we had the whole place to ourselves - popcorn fight.

...but the weirdest cult film...???

Most, if not all of the silly biker movies from the 60's and 70's.

Funny thing is I never knew anything about the film, and by the title, just assumed it was a kids movie.
Then last night I looked it up on IMDB;
Oh, *that* kind of queen!
