Truly strange films

La Chien Andalou.
Repulsion.
Caddyshack.

 

Roman Polanski's Macbeth. Seriously. It's not that strange if you realize who the director is and what happened to his wife and unborn child, but that is the darkest, bloodiest couple hours of all time.

American Beauty. I thought this was the best film I'd ever seen, right up until the ending -- WHICH MADE NO SENSE!

Blue Velvet is truly odd, but that's mostly the point.

I watched something called Generation Doom in college that my art school buddies swore by. Fucked up, to say the least.

 

Eternal Sunshine almost rises to the level of The Things They Carried for me, in that if you don't like it, I don't know that we can be friends. It's just one of those pieces of art that shakes me to my core, and I feel like I see the world differently (not better, just differently) than those who don't like it or get it.

 

Well put. Great movie.

 

I may lose my SportsJournalists.com status, here, but I will readily admit I have never seen Heathers. No particular reason other than I just haven't.

 

Allen, you're officially dead to SportsJournalists.com HeathersNation until you rent it.

ES-KI-MO.

 

Hell, I don't even know the plot or who's in it. Like I said, no reason for not having season. Problem is, I don't rent movies, I buy them, but I do it very sparingly. Maybe if the SportsJournalists.com nation could convince me, I'd buy it.

 

Quit being such a mega-bitch and buy the fucker.

In all seriousness, you can probably pick it up for $10 or less at your local big box.

 

Wow. I don't think I've ever been referred to as a mega-bitch. That's a first. Thanks Zeke!

I just looked up the plot on IMDB...three girls named Heather. Interesting premise.

 

And the leader of that nation is Bitter Young Heather

 

Don't forget I'mjustaHeather.

 

Good call... I don't think Dooley Womheather is in on this...
