ZARDOZ.

I was chanel surfing one night and found this one on, I figured "this is a movie" and "it has Sean Connery in it", I suppose I was right about both, but I had no clue as to what a complete mind**** was in store for me.

Doom Generation - Did not get it.
The Lonely Lady - Garden hose sodomy, wtf?

And the movie wasn't strange, but the ending was: where's the rest of Eastern Promises?

I am very surprised no one mentioned Being John Malkovich. Extremely surreal, and entertaining. Great movie along with being a great thought piece.

Otesánek (Little Otik, Svankmajer, 2000)



Little Otik, a Czech film based on a popular national fairytale must be up there. There are plenty more floating about but this one always springs to mind.

There was nothing really strange about that movie in my eyes..it just had an incredibly clever screenplay.

I don't think it was intended to come across as strange because it's quite straightforward.

I was just reffering to the poster, and not the movie escape from new york, in style it's a bit similar to that movies poster...

As for EFNY i thought it was a great movie. and BrotherBlue lol nice comment

You don't think being transported to an actor's mind from a door in a half size floor is weird? I don't take strange to be difficult to follow, I take it is extremely abnormal. It was definitely strange.

I don't know if I agree with this...but the kids felt that the 80's movie "The Black Hole" was absolutely bizzare...they still go on about ...years later.

Lynch's hair is really about to get its own zip code, I think...

Incredible screenplay

I have said this before.I think it's Guy Ritchie's greatest movie.(But i am probably alone in believing that. I loved that movie)

I stand alone. purely a brilliant film. its strange in the best way possible its a foreign film. give it a watch

funny games was strange because i couldnt figure out the villians character or motive. it's unsettling since their motives were completely at random. i dont know, thats just my opinion.

cheers,
jez

I found this movie and the others very energizing at the time.

Ah the Eighties!
I saw this in the theater when it was first released. They had the volume turned up to ear-bleeding levels. Yep. Weird.

Eraserhead and Mulholland Drive have both been mentioned, but right up there with those two is Lost Highway. I mean, wtf?

I haven't seen Inland Empire, nor do I plan to. I am too old and life is too short to waste any more of my time on David Lynch.

Oh, and I kinda liked Crash. But I've always been a sick bastard.
