9/10. Best movie I've seen all year. A very powerful and perfectly executed film.

There's hardly any dialogue but there are subtitles later. It's mainly an art/noise movie. The images are just insane.

Joe Bob is the shiz. He even likes Majorettes!

Been downloading/burning/watching old favorites to DVD that I wore out on VHS years ago:
 


 

 


all 9/10.

I think I'm going to watch Bad Biology later. I love Henenlotter.

atsonicpark 06.10.2009 04:11 PM

Anyone else excited for the COMBAT SHOCK TROMASTERPIECE COLLECTION dvd? Remastered picture and sound, on 2 discs, they're going all out. One of my all time favorite movies.

Also, I present to you, my "top 10 most insane movies ever made".. I guess "insane" is subjective, but what I mean is... bizarre stories and especially imagery.. very unique films.. movies to watch while tripping on acid..:

1. shaye and kiki: triggers
2. visions of suffering
3. death powder
4. pinnochio 964
5. the holy mountain
6. begotten
7. dog star man
8. izo
9. la mao (aka "The Cat")
10. boxer's omen

The Holy Mountain is too insanely awesome... I could never choose between that or El Topo because I like them equally...

The Holy Mountain has more substance to it maybe but El Topo makes me feel a lot more satisfied watching it.

Nice list anyway, my girlfriend said Pinnochio 964 was terrible when I told her to watch it haha.

atsonicpark 06.10.2009 04:58 PM

El Topo is my favorite of the two. But then, I prefer films that mainly focus on one character... The Holy Mountain is "technically" better but I think El Topo has more... heart. Or something.

Pinnochio is a masterpiece. My girlfriend thought it was amazing!!

I dont' have Bad Blood yet. But Brain Damage is a 10/10.

butterfly kiss - 7/10

Crazy film.

viewtiful_alan 06.10.2009 10:04 PM

 

7/10
Some parts were spectacular
Others... not so much.
I fucking loved the ending with Roy Orbison's "Crying" that was just great.

atsonicpark 06.10.2009 10:18 PM

Agreed. Gummo's overrated but it has some brilliant stuff here or there. Great soundtrack too. Still an important film, no matter what my opinions are of its content..

Yeah, I'm definitley glad I saw it, it could have been better though.
Are any of Harmony Korine's other movies worth seeing?

Haven't seen it in years.

Watched The Reader last night. Not bad.

I don't have the popular opinion on this stuff, so..... I did like Mister Lonely okay, and I think Julien Donkey Boy is pretty lousy despite a few amazing scenes (and, again, an unbelievable soundtrack). As for the movies he's written, I didn't like Kids, and Ken Park is just.. okay. He's an interesting guy, and I know his films have a style that appeals to people (I hear him being called a genius all the time) but frankly they just don't do much for me usually. There's always a few brilliant things in 'em though.
