Which Foreign Film Do You Consider The Most Bizarre?
 

For me, "Leolo", of course!
It's one of those movies I had to see twice to get the full jest of it. One has to be open and insightful to understand how vulgar, shallow and grotesque it appears on the surface, but has deep seated humanity...thoughtful, beautiful and exceedingly morose as well. Pitiful and sad. The movie is human internal conflict through and through.
With all of these facets of life that mostly dwell on struggle, toil, mental illness and despair, the film manages to insert some very, shall I say, "interesting" humor.
I think it's a masterpiece. And a puzzle with a few parts missing.
Leave it to the French Canadians!

If you haven't watched it, and have a yearning for something that breaks the boundaries of most film norms, I highly recommend you give this a look-see. Bazaar, but makes perfect sense.

Hausu

The Boxer's Omen

Tetsuo: The Iron Man



These films three have given me the most bananas **** I've seen on screen.

I've never seen them. Thanks. Now they're on my list. :)

Ingmar Bergmans "The Silence" is bizarre

Salo is an interesting choice

The Umbrellas of Cherbourg (1964) is bizarre in that it's entire dialogue is sung...and yet it's an amazing moviethat totally stirs the soul.

Border (2018)
Very weird movie, but interesting in the same time.... seen it not long ago :up:
Gräns - the original title - Swedish

Audition (1999). It's a straight up drama until the last 30 minutes then it just turns absolutely brutal. Has the guys subconscious set in or are the events really happening?

The beast or La bete 1975, one of the weirdest ever

For me it's The Last Circus heres a very accurate description I found on reddit.
"spanish language film. Sad clown likes Boss clowns wife, they have a fight, nobody wins...then the wheels fly right off and absolute insanity unfolds. Great cinematography, a very different kind of story and above average acting!"
There is some stuff in this film that is uforgettable and alot that is certainly alot that is uncomfortable.

The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie

Save the Green Planet, probably. No foreign weirdness is as weird as South Korean weirdness.

Tetsuo, probably.
