The more fucked up a movie's plot is, the more I want to see it.

[Initech]

Madagascar? Eh, not for me.

Righteous Kill? Some cop movies are great, but there are many that suck, but I'll probably go see them anyways.

Give me a movie where a compulsive fornicator has a day job where he cons restaurant goers as a choking victim in order to dupe them out of their money and I'm in.

Give me a movie where a yuppie moonlights as a serial killer and I'm in.

Give me a movie where a guy dressed as a mall Santa Claus beats up kids and drinks his ass off and I'm in.

Anyone else like this?

1. "Liquid Sky".

It's a quaint tale about being disappointed in others. Featuring lesbians and junkie aliens.

[rcrush]

17. I like everything you just said.

I will see this movie.

[Fire Walk With Me]

18. Warning: There is some really bad acting and moments that drag

but the overall payoff is well worth it. I haven't given away one-quarter of the amazing shit that goes on. :thumbsup:

[redqueen]

25. Yep... well worth the bad acting for memorable weirdness.

I second your :thumbsup:

2. I'm in.

Some of the movies I watch are considered completely sucky by other people. I still loved Straight To Hell and thought it was a great movie, albeit a B Grade, sure. Still, it had a good plot, and it was a good movie.

I just get so tired of cookie cutter formula movies. You know what the end is before you ever sit down to watch a movie and it makes the movie suck more and makes it take forever to finally end. Give me a twist! The more crazy, out there, outlandish, unexpected<----keyword there, the better.

8. I got tired of formulaic crap a long time ago.

Same with movies, same with TV, everything. I've been watching Dexter lately and that show kicks ass, I'm going to start watching Californication pretty soon. Fuck generic sitcoms too, like King Of Queens or Everybody Loves Raymond. Give me Arrested Development, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Reno 911, or Its Always Sunny In Philadelphia. Generic entertainment be damned!

3. I'm in.

4. I hate the recent trend in critical articles claiming some plots are "too complicated."

I heard that about the second and third "Pirates of the Carribean," "The Dark Knight," "Quantum of Solace," and something else recently.

Poor little babies. If they can't follow more than one strand of a plot, maybe they should learn dishwashing.

Speaking of fucked-up plots, j'ever see "The Paint Job," with Robert Pastorelli, Bebe Neuwirth, and Will Patton?

[Initech]

9. Dont think I've seen that one.

Will have to check it out.

And yeah critics complaining that films have too much plot are fucking pussies.

5. "The Bed-Sitting Room"

An English comedy so weird it makes David Lynch look like Disney. The major character is mutating into a bed-sitting room (British for a studio apartment) in the aftermath of a nuclear war. Other characters are up to even stranger things.

It's not available on DVD, but you can watch it on line for free: http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=the+bed+sitting+room&emb=0&aq=4&oq=the+bed+#

11. Now THAT is fucked up shit.

[Dr. Strange]

6. In a related story...

I'm thinking about starting Palahniuk's Choke.

[Initech]

10. I read Choke a long time ago.

Very entertaining, I'm a big fan of Palahnuik's.

7. I think that the "Pride and Predator" poll is MADE for you....n/t

13. "Natural Born Killers"

Most fucked-up movie EVAR. And also brilliant!

[nadine_mn]

14. Four Rooms.

The room with Antonio Banderas is classic

[rcrush]

21. My fav was The Tarantino one then the Banderas one.

I always watch that movie when it comes on HBO.

[rcrush]

15. You mean like a magic mailbox type story?

I know those are so fucked up!

[rcrush]

16. I liked Death to Smoochy

I always hear people shit on this movie but I thought it was great.

[Initech]

29. That movie kicked ass.

22. Possibly the most plot-free movie of all time-"The Terror",

produced by Harvey Corman in 1963, with Jack Nicholson, Sandra Knight and Boris Karloff. It was a no-budget pic, made with actors who had worked in other Corman pics and still owed him time. Used many scenes from other Corman pics, and was just made up as it went. Wasdirected by at least 5 people: Roger Corman,Monte Hellman, Francis Ford Coppola, Jack Nicholson (not credited) and Jack Hill.The film is in PD - it was never copywrited, and also was shown as "Lady of the Shadows" and several other titles.
Everyone had only a short time to spend on this movie, and took it in a different direction. Nicholson, who was working for Corman at the time, tried to tie it all together, but....

Personally , I like this movie - it is so wierd it's enjoyable, totally by accident.

23. The Cook the Thief His Wife & Her Lover

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0097108/

The wife of a barbaric crime boss engages in a secretive romance with a gentle bookseller between meals at her husband's restaurant. Food, colour coding, sex, murder, torture and cannibalism are the exotic fare in this beautifully filmed but brutally uncompromising modern fable which has been interpreted as an allegory for Thatcherism

[Amerigo Vespucci]

24. You must be a big fan of the 2 Drew Barrymore "Charlie's Angels" films...

...because they've got to be two of the most seriously fucked up movies I've ever seen. Directed by some schween named "McG"...a former "music video director"...who (according to the press kits) "brought a "Matrix"-style intensity to the screen."

That and a few fetish / eye candy scenes, primarily with Luci Liu.

:eyes:

[Initech]

28. The first one SUCKED. Didn't bother with the second.

[redqueen]

26. Have you seen Ichi the Killer?

How about Audition?

Tideland?

I like other kinds of movies too... but definitely a fan of the twisted ones.

[Initech]

27. Seen clips of it - could never watch the whole thing.

[redqueen]

30. Aw but the end is the best part.

I hope you saw that...
