Gozu

[Jekka]

The movie Gozu ... bizarre - and a little sick.

Any other ed up film recommendations (foreign or otherwise) while I'm stuck at Minister Mom's house for the holidays?

Good movie.

I suggest Inner Space.

The Crying Game -- The Vicar will love that one.

Fabulous movie - oh Stanley Kubrick, you were a sick one. I haven't watched it in a while though ... maybe I should just do a Kubrick marathon.

Inner Space

How can you hate the loveable midget villans in the backseat?

New Wave Hookers, Ginger Lynn's portrayal of a woman who loves a double penetration is Oscar worthy. Oscar Meyer that is.

Boooooooooo.

If you are going with a Kubrick marathon, I suggest Paths of Glory and Dr. Strangelove. I guess that isn't much of a marathon, but that's still like a 4 hour chunk of time.

Dr. Strangelove is one of my favorites - I was depressed when George C Scott died.

Everyone's favorite quote: "There's no fighting in the war room!"

Gozer? The Gate Keeper?

Never seen Gozu, but Iron Man was completely screwed up. Ai No Corrida makes Basic Instinct look like The Sound of Music.

[Notorious H.O.P.]

Iron Man is definitely out there. If the video store you go to has a cult classics section, you might find it there. Others you might find in that section would be Freaks (not bizarre but the old school look is cool) and Santa Sangre (one of the weirdest films I've seen).

Chinese Herculese anyone?

Unfortunetly, I have yet to see Dr. Strangeglove, but I have a feeling now that I've brought that up the appropraite authority will take action.

Good luck finding the 1967 classic, Work is a Four-Letter Word.

David Warner and scouse songbird Cilla Black star in a delightfully-absurd account of a young man called Valentine Brose who is on a mission to grow a crop of psychedelic mushrooms to promote happiness for the overworked masses of Great Britain (I kid you not!)

He takes a job at a power station and knocks out the entire city's power and then feeds the authorities his mushrooms, sending them into a frenzy of hallucinogenic bliss. He then is able to escape with his wife to be (Cilla) and a baby carriage loaded with mushrooms.

Occasionally hilarious but without much direction or purpose. Unfortunately this bizarre slice of the Sixties is not available on video or DVD. Come on Cilla . . .

Dreamlike satire about a young man who resists getting a job at the lone employing conglomerate in his dreary industrial town, but changes his mind when he discovers the plant's boiler room has the perfect climate to assist him with his pet horticultural (fungal) project. Many of the actors in this film also members of the Royal Shakespeare Company. Also stars Beatles' friend and recording artist Cilla Black, but I date myself. If you can find this movie, watch it. It's twisted. Right up there with 'Billy Liar'. David Warner is perfect, a creepy combination of disaffected and keenly focused. Oh, where has this movie gone?

[Guru of Nothing]

I've not seen the aforementioned Billy Liar film. I just may check it out.
