I think that Pink Flamingos tops anyones list as a funky Movie.

L'age D'or

Salvador Dali was one of the writers. Need I say more???



How about John Water's "Desperate Living"? Or ANYTHING by John Waters?

Corn Dog Man. A man is harassed to ruin by a guy that sells corn dogs. I'm partial to this because it's filmed where I grew up in Old "Downtown" North Charleston.

Fargo - Weird and funny by the Coen brothers. "Barton Fink" is probably the only Coen movie I didn't get anything out of.

A Clockwork Orange - This was mentioned on another thread but I'd like to second it here.

It seems to me--that anything I like fits this category.

[BearBio]

I'll second Bubba Ho-Tep!

 

[wbraswell]

Heh, heh, I get a kick out of these threads, I know I'm not alone. Y'all are strange, I like that.

No doubt Al Gore's favorite movie, Soylent Green. Tastes like chicken!

We have had the old movie thread, the John Wayne thread, the favorite western thread, and the horrible movie thread. Now it is time for the weird, offbeat, and embarrassingly entertaining funky movie thread. Here are but a few of my favorites:

Quest for fire
Big Lebowski
Baghdad Cafe
King pin
Dogma
Repo man
Lust in the dust
Welcome to Woop Woop
Bubba Ho-Tep
Kung fu hustle
Cirque female freedom fighters
The good, bad and weird
Killer klowns from outer space
Ferocious female freedom fighters
A boy and his dog
Zone troopers
Big trouble in little china

I never saw any of the others mentioned but--Zone Troopers was actually good.

 

[the ringo kid]

I'm surprised no one has hit on Attack of the Killer Tomatoes or Plan 9 from Outer Space.

Mentioned extensively but--in other threads...

 

[wnwitzell]

I left all of John Waters stuff because they are more sick than entertaining. For the most part. Kind of like most Troma movies (I.e. toxic Averger etc).
Ferocious Female Freedom Fighters is an exception because it is very funny.

 

[vytoland]

Tortilla Heaven = 2007
thing are tough all over = cheech & chong
nothing but trouble = chevy chase, dan aykrod
Cadillac man = robin williams

 

[MOONDAWG]

"Plan 9 from Outer Space"

"Glen and Glenda" ...two funky stinkers from the mind of Ed Wood

 

[oneflycowboy]

Dr. Strangelove: Major Kong Rides The Bomb

Slim Pickens was one of a kind!

"Eating Raoul"

Eating Raoul - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


but then I actually like "The Postman" and "Waterworld"

 

[wbraswell]

Oh, I remember one. Tales That Witness Madness, creeeeeepppyyyyy.

 

[timn8er]

So many of my personal weird favorites have been mentioned...except for two so far. Head of the Family, a really strange flick, & Ballroom Dancing, which for some reason I just like.
