What's the strangest movie you've seen?

The Sweet Movie

A twisted 1970s surrealist fever dream, which is actually a critique on extreme ideologies. You will be disturbed. You will feel like you dropped acid. It will be horrendous and glorious. It contains nudity, vomiting, fetishism, implied pedophilia, a couple getting "stuck together"...
And a whole lot of absolute insanity.

And I've seen it three times.

That's a tie between Sausage Party and Ernest Goes to Africa...

(I mean immediately off the top of my head. I'm sure I've seen stranger.)

The Lighthouse was pretty damn strange. I liked it though but boy it was weird.

Sausage party was... something else.

The fact that the critics adored that movie but hated other better quality films says a lot. Some of my favorite movies have an average of around 20% on Rotten Tomatoes.

There is disturbingly weird, unsettingly weird, mind-numbingly weird, refrigerator moment weird, and just go-along weird to name a few.

My favorite go-along weird movie was "Radioactive Dreams" from the 1980s. I haven't been able to find a dvd copy. I do wonder if it will still be as enjoyable as I remember.

**Booming Theater Announcer Voice*** In a post-apocalyptic world, two boys in a vault raised on pulp detective novels and 1940's Americana must brave the outside to find one of their fathers. Can they survive the outside dystopian world? Will they find out why their father left them? Does Fallout 3 have some "splainin" to do? Find out on VHS or Beta. ***End Booming Theater Announcer Voice***

Iron Sky.

If you haven't heard of it before, just the synopsis should explain why I chose it as the strangest movie I've watched.

A 2020 korean drama movie, Josée

The 1969 low budget adaptation of Voyage to Arcturus was pretty weird, but then to be fair it was dealing with some pretty weird source material.

Of course it's pretty hard for a movie to actually meet my threshold for weird, given that I'm a David Lynch fan and consider most of his films perfectly normal.

Annihilation (2018), pretty strange.

The book actually helps to make sense of the movie. The two don't really follow each other, at all, but it can help you make sense of the themes.

Message From Space
A wild and whacky Star Wars knockoff with crazy fights and battle scenes and a plot that I havent found but dont care about not finding. Its pretty awesome and strange.

The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl

In terms of obscurity, this movie doesn’t go very far at all, but it is indeed weird for a movie, especially with the crappy CGI. Don’t get me wrong, the acting is good, and a bunch of us here enjoyed this when we were younger, but the animations… well, yeah…

Texas – Doc Snyder hält die Welt in Atem
Absurdist comedy that is really hard to describe other than "strange".

by **Greenwalt** » Mon Sep 18, 2023 11:37 pm

How To Talk To Girls At Parties (2018). Also one of the best movies I’ve ever seen.

Nothing But Trouble, a 1991 cult horror comedy.

Spaceballs... no scratch that

Beetlejuice

Surprised no one has mentioned The Apple, Phantom of the Paradise (which honestly the best adaption of La Rue's Phantom of the Opera, take that ALW) or Lizstomania yet but yeah, lol.

That A.I. (2001) movie by Spielberg.

by **Edush** » Sun Oct 01, 2023 2:26 am

Either A Serbian Film (2010) or Gummo (1997). They both are strange.

It's between The End of Evangelion and Puella Magi Madoka Magica Rebellion for me. Both involve crazy philosophical/psychological discussions and the world being destroyed in a really trippy way.

All very strange indeed. And in the same category of 'weird rock musical'. Add Human Highway and 200 Motels.

Nothing beats Begotten though.

I watched the movie Green Elephant, released in Russia in 1999 with English subtitles, and I have to admit that it is horror-inducing. If you have an unstable nervous system or have an intolerance for violence, I would not recommend watching it.
