What Is The Most Unusual Movie You Have Ever Seen?

Jesus Camp.

Life Aquatic..didn''t that have Bill Murray in it? I think I rented it years ago, and if that''s the same movie, I had NO clue what was going on.
 
Food of the Gods....it was gross!

Lori
 
The first one I thought of is Little Children, specifically because of one scene. It was so awful and unfortunately, that''s the one thing I remember about that movie.

Being John Malkovich was weird too. I know there are others but those are the two I can think of for now.
 
Ahhh Food Of The Gods starring
Marjoe Gortner the former child evangelist.
I hadn''t thought about him in years.
 
Most definitely The Baby of Macon. First and last time I''ve ever seen a Peter Greenaway film.
 
Children of the Corn

The Crying Game

And this... Sleepers (1996) - A movie about a group of boys who are molested in an orphanage as children and then take revenge as adults. I saw it on a first date--SO AWKWARD

Being John Malkovich was a weird one...as was Safe, with Julianne Moore.
 
I can''t think of any truly bizarre movies that I''ve seen, but DH says Pink Floyd''s The Wall was the weirdest he''s encountered.
 
Jacob''s Ladder.
 
Not necessarily the weirdest one - but definitely one of the nastiest ones - Calighula. It is funny, though, that Helen Mirren that played his promiscuous wife, Caesonia, later starred as the Queen of England.
 
Not the weirdest, but very entertaining: Fido.
 
Tetsue: The Iron Man (1989) My friend and I watched it, and after we were like whoa...

A Scanner Darkly. Hubby and got through 30 minutes and I said turn it off...I still to this day have no clue what it is about.
 
"The House of Yes" -1997

I love Parker Posey! This movie had me looking like this

the whole way through it!
 
Clockwork Orange
 
Repo Man
Buckaroo Banzai in the 8th dimension
The Man Who Fell to Earth
The Wicker Man
EraserHead
A Clockwork Orange
 
I try to avoid odd movies as they tend to irritate me, but I have seen a few.

Being JM was very odd.
Intimate Affairs-great cast and the description sounded perfect. A period film that makes fun of people who take themselves too seriously in period films, but if it was funny or good or smart, I really missed it.

The oddest was not a movie, but a play, but it was so bad I have to mention it. I was in London with my class and we went to the premiere of MacBeth at the Globe theatre. I was so excited because I would get to see it as close as possible to how it should be performed. Man was I let down. I understand it was the most panned performance they ever did; as I understand it, the director has not been asked back and it took them 9 years to stage MacBeth again. They wore tuxedos and 30s evening gowns and the wierd sisters were jazz singers. Instead of carrying the forest to the castle, the "army" leaned over, and snapped as they walked forward. The death scenes were the worst though. Instead of blood, there was gold streamers and instead of actually killing someone, they dropped a stone in that person''s bucket.
 
I have seen lots!

Dancer in the Dark - one of my favourites but I''ve only seen it once. Too traumatizing to see again.

Love Story 2050 - Bollywood. Boy wins girl, girl dies, uncle uses time machine not to go back into the PAST and stop her dying, but goes to the FUTURE to find her. Also features a pink teddybear robot.

9 songs - HATED this. HAAATED. It''s on Netflix. It thinks it''s all edgy because it''s non-simulated sex, but it''s basically just disconnected graphic sex scenes interspersed by live indie rock concert footage. That''s it. Plot? Nope. (I don''t have a problem with the sex- I saw Intimacy which was fascinating, disturbing, and heartbreaking. 9 songs was just crap.)

Y Tu Mama Tambien. I spent the entire movie either making this face:

or this one:

The Secret of Kells This should have won the Oscar instead of Up, dangit! I do like some anime, but it''s so narrow in execution that this little film was a breath of sparkly green air. WATCH IT if you haven''t!

Burn After Reading - I didn''t like this either, but it''s definitely unusual.

I like weird movies. I also like super cute girlie ones, so for you ladies with Netflix who want to see an adorable little indie movie, stream Dakota Skye.
 
Welcome to the Dollhouse. Being John Malkovich.

I thought "Hostile" was unusual and horrifying.
 
Galateia
OK I will watch 9 Songs, you see Watch Out and we''ll report back.
For cute girlie movies I liked Nana and Nana 2.
Based on Manga but with live actors who only look like dolls.

Oh dear. Based on the synopsis, I am afraid. Deeply afraid. 9 songs wasn''t disturbing, just stupid.
 
Just thought of another
The Village - this movie was strange... just...odd
 
I actually liked The Crying Game, but my husband had quite a negative reaction to the most revealing thing...
Approximately same year, they were running a movie at an independent theater at Coolidge Corner in Boston, it was called "Sex Is...". It was way too revealing.
 
I must be really weird because a lot of the movies I see listed here I would only consider mainstream fringe and not truly weird lol

What about Requiem for a Dream?

Pi was weird too. . .Dh liked and bought it for his collection.
 
The Butcher Boy was the strangest film I''ve ever seen. I still think of it sometimes even though it''s been years since I''ve seen it.
 
I actually seek out independent, off-beat films. My FI gets irritated since I''ll turn on IFC or Sundance and start watching some random movie lol. I''d say the majority are duds but every now and again the unexpected happens and I''m pleasantly surprised. My list:

Heathers: Wiona Ryder and Christian Slater murder the popular clique at their HS ...

Jawbreaker

Y Tu Mama Tambien

Savage Grace: I recently saw this, stars Julianne Moore who I usually like. The plot was some crazy autobiography of an
heiress who has an incestuous relationship with her homosexual son, even goes as far to have a menage et tois with the son''s lover too. it was .... bizarre

Gattaca: Possibly my favorite movie ever, futuristic sci-fi/eugenics film with Uma Thurman and Ethan Hawke. Really appeals to my nerdy side!
 
La Jette. Some weird black and white French sci-fi film we watched in my Metaphysics class in college. I STILL remember that film - it''s so weird.
