I was going to say insane campy 1993 neon kung fu film The Heroic Trio with which I am obsessed but apparently it's a criterion film now so I guess not.

atomicgeek posted:It has a sequel! The Executioners. I caught it on TNT late at night in the 90s, lol. I wouldn't call either one a good movie, but they're both fun. Apparently they're both on the criterion Blu ray so I really want it now. I've never seen the sequel but I've seen the first one so many times, it has so much crazy poo poo in it I just love it

Antivehicular posted:Babycat is definitely a fetish thing, but it's making me picture a bunch of family-friendly pet films where all the animals are played by humans in minimal costumes and nobody ever comments on this, like how "Clifford" treats Martin Short as a completely normal child. Come to think of it, this idea would be prime for a Clifford the Clifford is an insane movie. My younger sister loved it growing up so I've seen it way too many times

Modal Auxiliary posted:The critics definitely didn't, the fifth movie was the only one to break 60% on Rotten Tomatoes. Point taken though. That's fair, I know among myself and other horror movie people I know they are continually popular though.

dr_rat posted:Yeah, probably one of the few times horror movies have given people a healthy respect for/fear of something that they should. First one also has someone slipping in the shower, death design or not, slipping in the shower, that's like one of the few times someones been killed in a horror movie by a way that it's actually really common for people to die (although normally slipping and hitting head or hip -big killer in the elder- usually not by accidentally hanging). There's a healthy combination of splashy and ridiculous deaths and reasonable deaths in those movies

Ominous Jazz posted:if big fat liar is bad why is Paul Giamatti there We can do this all day Edit: this is how I learned that Paul Giamatti was in a 2002 film with Rupert Grint called Thunderpants that has the following description: "Patrick Smash is a young lad with an embarrassing problem: powerful, uncontrollable flatulence. Luckily his best friend not only has no sense of smell but is a genius who works out how to harness Patrick's power, first to win an unpowered flight competition and eventually to help NASA in a rescue mission to a failing space station." hallo spacedog has a new favorite as of 17:46 on Mar 15, 2024 |

sebmojo posted:It feels like 2024 reportage, like when it came out everyone was all what is this absurd nonsense, now it's more Ah yes this accurately describes my lived reality I'd love to try and watch it again, my immediate feeling when I saw it the first time was that he had just seen cremaster cycle and was regurgitating a lot of that back out for us but I'm curious if I'd still feel that way now

Mister Speaker posted:Oh man what a trip. My high school art teacher played this for us over the course of several classes. It is so perfectly pretentious and self-indulgent, the kind of work that people point to when they're making fun of contemporary art. But I love it. I feel the same way. It's completely stupidly ridiculous and over the top and yet I love it a lot in a way and think about it frequently. It definitely belongs in this thread too.

Question about Freaked for anyone who remembers seeing it in the 90s, did you see it on cable? VHS? It looks like it was only released to 2 screens here in the US weirdly

teen witch posted:Oh! I finally saw Young Einstein and I get the jokes now! It is genuinely pretty terrible but if I was a kid I think I’d like it far more. The music was solid though?? My dad loved that movie so I saw it many times as a kid, it's really genuinely terrible and I'm sort of amazed it exists

nonathlon posted:I wouldn't describe as a good film. But it's so absolutely, 110% into its own crazy idea, that's admirable. Everyone is so serious and the film never blinks at its own absurdity. It's amazing. I agree completely - it ISN'T GOOD by any metric of the word good but it's very much its own batshit insane thing and I think that's amazing. I wish there were more films like that. Just giant weird sprawling insanity.
