Definitely Doppelgänger.

Don’t see it if you have arachnophobia.

ICXC NIKA
 
The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Mulholland Drive

Not endorsing either! 😛

I guess this one has cult status now, but I saw a movie in college about aliens invading Earth and using consumerism to take over. Kind of like the Matrix, but involving 80s hair. Instead of a pill, you could wear special glasses to see the “real world” instead of the advertisements.

Ah, here it is: They Live (1988). Seems like reception was actually pretty positive when the film came out, but I just thought it was astonishingly awkward and weird. But maybe I’m too young?

I remember that one. Wrestler Rowdy Roddy Piper as the star.

Another classic from 1988 was “Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama”. I don’t want to ruin it for anyone but it also includes an alien who is probably a cousin to the little creature in the ZZ Top video for “TV Dinners”.

Survive Style 5. Japanese. It was…strange and kind of neat.

Also, Choking Hazard. Weird, but it has zombies.
 
Razorback

Plot.
Jake Cullen is babysitting his grandson at his house in the Australian outback when a massive razorback (boar) attacks him, smashing through his house and dragging away his grandson to devour alive. Jake is accused of murdering the child and while his account of the events are met with high scepticism, he is acquitted due to lack of evidence. The event destroys his credibility and reputation however and he vows revenge on the boar.

That movie was hilarious!!

By far, the funniest part is when the black guy goes to find the white guy in an alley, he fights him in an attempt to force him to put on the sunglasses LOL
 
No question: Jodorowsky’s “The Holy Mountain.” The most grotesque and bizarre.

The weirdest in a good way: “The Umbrellas of Cherbourg” with Gene Kelly and Catherine Deneuve. Can’t think of another movie where every line of dialogue is sung. And it’s not a “musical” in the traditional sense of the word.
 
I’ve seen some bizarre movies, but one called “Naked Lunch” is the weirdest. Typewriters turning into insects and it just gets weirder. I didn’t enjoy it. I think that it’s supposed to be about a guy getting high on printing fluid or something. I don’t recommend it. Weirdest movie I actually enjoyed to some extent was “Being John Malkovich.” They Live was a fun movie, and I love Spirited away as well as other Hayo Miyazaki films.
 
Recently I saw ‘The Manitou,’ from 1978. Tony Curtis throws an electric typewriter at a Native American dwarf, who is the reincarnation of an evil medicine man. And that’s not even the weirdest scene. :cool:
 
“Koyananisquatsi.”

It was a documentary I saw in the mid 80s.

Some weird, artsy thing that made no sense at all.

Anyone else see it?
 
I saw “Birdman” last year after all the hoopla. While it may not have been the absolute weirdest I have ever seen; it was definitely a really weird movie to gain such nominations for awards. IMO

The overall weirdest was “The Brood” where a crazy lady “gives birth” to dwarf killer children from bumps on her arms.
 
Clockwork Orange and 2001: A Space Odyssey were weird to me. I didn’t like either one. If I had to pick a weird movie I liked it would be something like Attack of the Killer Tomatoes.
 
Attack of the Killer Tomatoes. It was meant to be a serious movie, but was so dumb that you had to laugh all through it.😃
