Trippy DVD Rentals
I will be the first to admit I have strange taste in movies. Below I have posted some of my favorite genre flicks of all time. Each of the movies posted below has a special place in my wide array of “varying favorite films”.
“Gummo” has to be the most bizarre and disturbing film I have ever talked about on this blog. It is not an easy movie to watch. With a plot that is hard to describe because it plays out like real life, “Gummo” is a strange trip indeed.
“They Live” is in hindsight a low budget cheese fest, but below it’s 80’s camp exterior there is a smart genre defining creepy premise that has been duplicated numerous times by other such mind bending films such as “The Matrix” and “Dark City.” Check it out if you like a good Sci-Fi film and can get over the low production values and bad special effects.
“Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me” is the perfect movie to watch if you are not familiar with the series. Watch this film first, then the 2 hour TV series pilot AND then the complete TV series on Netflix (in that order) and you will appreciate the kooky love affair geeks have had with this show for years.
“Heavy Metal” is a classic with animation fans, late 70’s early 80’s heavy metal enthusiasts and stoners for years. In case you have never seen or heard of this it is not for kids! The animation may seem crude compared to Pixar masterpieces but the adult humor and themes are pretty cool. Animated drug references, exaggerated gore and nudity have a place in animation if done right…and this cartoon does it well.
