A Seriously Random List / Dustin Rowles

Seriously Random Lists | March 25, 2009 | Comments (179)


Earlier today, we posted Yahoo’s 100 Movies You Should See Before You Die, a safe list of mostly critical darlings and old white people movies. But let’s assume that you’ve managed to see all 100 of those movies, and you’ve become emotionally weak.

Steel Magnolias (Shame)

WHAT?! You can take this bible and shove it where the sun doesn't shine.

Posted by: Julie at March 24, 2009 3:38 PM

You forgot Sphere (Sheer ridiculousness).

I'm sorry but Queen Latifah turns in the most unintentionally hilarious moment in that movie.

"They're stinging meh through mah suit!"

I laugh every time...every damn time.

Posted by: Smokin at March 24, 2009 3:38 PM

I love that you really thought of 99 horrible movies for this list.

HOW are you not dead right now?!

Posted by: figgy at March 24, 2009 3:38 PM

Ok, I seriously need to see Wicker Man now. I need a good laugh.

Posted by: Mike R. at March 24, 2009 3:38 PM

Garden State (Whimsy)

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

And I will gladly die from Brokeback Mountain or In America.

Posted by: figgy at March 24, 2009 3:40 PM

Kenneth Branagh’s Hamlet (Bed Sores)

BAHAHAHA! Yes.

Patch Adams: (Diabeetus)

Posted by: BarbadoSlim at March 24, 2009 3:45 PM

I would think of some, and then go down the list and find it there. Good job, Rowles! I quite agree with the vast majority.

Except for My Girl. Dude, that was my coming-of-age movie. Don't knock bee-stung deaths and hot bee-stung lips!

Posted by: Shadows of Dakaron at March 24, 2009 3:45 PM

I thought that was Cocoon BSlim.

Posted by: admin at March 24, 2009 3:47 PM

Hush.

Fucking terrible.

Posted by: Eep at March 24, 2009 3:52 PM

Twilight (self-inflicted stake thru the heart, followed by decapitation)

Posted by: dammitjanet at March 24, 2009 3:53 PM

I rather liked Jacob's Ladder. Granted, I haven't seen it in many years. How about substituting The Omega Code(Bewildering Stupidity) for it? It's got "the end" right in the title. Bonus points for horrific wooden acting from Catherine Oxenberg, Casper Van Dien and Michael York combined with a nonsensical, convoluted plot. Even the B-Movie lover in me wanted to crawl into a dark place and die.

Posted by: Sharopa at March 24, 2009 3:53 PM

I didn't think Se7en was that shocking, more like contrived. It was shocking the way David Lynch movies are weird.

Vampire in Brooklyn, on the other hand, is awesome, and shame on you for saying otherwise.

Posted by: Eep at March 24, 2009 3:54 PM

Patch Adams: (Diabeetus)

Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Posted by: figgy at March 24, 2009 3:55 PM

Delta Farce: Pills.

Haha! Can we add Date/Disaster movie to that genre?

Beaches will always be known for that crappy "Wind Beneath My Wings" song. They actually play that in funeral homes.

I would put Glitter & Catwoman as Pure Comedy instead of embarrassment.

Aww, I liked My Life. It brings me to tears every time.

You can add Branagh's Frankenstein to the bed sores category. Sorry, DeNiro.

Requiem for a Dream: Masochism.

Posted by: Brie at March 24, 2009 3:56 PM

BarbadoSlim, you owe me a new keyboard. Mine is now coated in a combination of iced tea and snot.

Gigli: self inflicted claw hammer to the head
Monster Squad :kick in the nards
Stardust: boob deflation
The Thin Man: gin poisoning
Beetlejuice: that fucking dog

Posted by: Julie at March 24, 2009 3:59 PM

horrific wooden acting from ... Casper Van Dien...

Wait...is there any other kind from him?

Posted by: Shadows of Dakaron at March 24, 2009 3:59 PM

I love that you really thought of 99 horrible movies for this list.

Well, they're really a bunch of horrible movies, mixed in with a bunch of really good movies that often do unpleasant things to you (or make you feel extremely in one fashion or another)

unless, of course, you hope to argue that Evil Dead 2 *is* a horrible movie, in which case, I bite my tongue at thee!

Posted by: Soylent Green is Sheeple at March 24, 2009 4:01 PM

Evil Dead 2 is one of the everlasting greats.

Posted by: Shadows of Dakaron at March 24, 2009 4:03 PM

Never seen it...but don't worry, my SO won't let me go long without watching it.

Posted by: figgy at March 24, 2009 4:05 PM

The Notebook (Shame)

Hellfuckingyes. I'll forgive you blaspheming Steel Magnolias for this one.

I bite my tongue at thee!
Do you mean "thumb"? Because that's one of my favorite Shakespearean insults. Also, you have an awesome name.

Posted by: Kayanne at March 24, 2009 4:06 PM

9. Well, that's 5 less than the classics, at least.

Evil Dead 2, Brokeback Mountain, Garden State, The Hours, Manos: Hands of Fate (never without Joel and the gang, though), and Schindler's List.

Also Freddy Got Fingered, Glitter, and John Tucker Must Die, but in my defense, I saw all three with the same friend, and she doesn't even have terrible taste in movies, she has no taste.

Posted by: dsbs at March 24, 2009 4:06 PM

Hot Rod: (Samberging)

Posted by: admin at March 24, 2009 4:06 PM

Shadows of Dakaron, Right, that' all you ever get from Van Dien. But in this movie you get a trio of actors who might as well have been 2x4' with photos pasted to them.

Posted by: Sharopa at March 24, 2009 4:08 PM

The PajiOrgy: (La Petite Mort)

Posted by: Kayanne at March 24, 2009 4:09 PM

Gumbo (Accentuated Anal Puckering that Swallows You Whole)

Edmond (Confused Self Strangulation)

Wild Hogs (Profuse Bleeding From the Clawmarks on the Eyes)

40 Year Old Virgin: (Butthole Pleasure)

Posted by: admin at March 24, 2009 4:11 PM

You left off Dog Soldiers (Shock).

I love this movie for it's sheer badness.

And also Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, but I'm not sure what the Cause of Death would be for that one. Embarrassment, probably.

Posted by: sistercoyote at March 24, 2009 4:11 PM

24 and I've survived to this point, no thanks to Gigli.

Posted by: Nate at March 24, 2009 4:11 PM

Prince of Tides (Streisand)

Showgirls: (Rapid Hand Movement in Front of The Face)

Posted by: admin at March 24, 2009 4:13 PM

Showgirls (Masturbation)

Posted by: BarbadoSlim at March 24, 2009 4:14 PM

Holy Crap!!

Great minds..

Posted by: BarbadoSlim at March 24, 2009 4:15 PM

Mswas, your comment suggests that (Streisand) is a cause of death. If that's how you meant it - HeeHee. I'm thinking of the South Park Streisand monster now.

Posted by: Graindy at March 24, 2009 4:15 PM

I just realized I've watched 37 of these. That's over a third! And maybe enjoyed five. Maybe.

Maybe I need to go to the hospital real quick. Ya know, just in case.

Posted by: Shadows of Dakaron at March 24, 2009 4:15 PM

I must admit, I'm a little bit frightened.

Posted by: admin at March 24, 2009 4:17 PM

I've seen more of these then I've seen films on the Yahoo list. Like, 2 films here for every 1 film there. I don't know how to feel about that.

Posted by: Robert at March 24, 2009 4:18 PM

40 Year Old Virgin: (Butthole Pleasure)

I now know firsthand what it's like to try to get bits of Devil Dog out of a keyboard. Hint for anyone who has yet to experience this: It's fucking impossible.

Posted by: Kolby at March 24, 2009 4:22 PM

The Hottie and the Nottie (Stupidity)

But if you survived the stupidity, you would inevitably be brought down by the cinematically-transmitted syphilis.

There's no jimmy hat you can wear that prevents CTD's.

Posted by: branded at March 24, 2009 4:24 PM

Hey Dustin, I'm not really feeling these columns today. Lately Rowles you've been in a fog, I hope everything is going ok, sometimes I worry about you.

Posted by: Pookie at March 24, 2009 4:28 PM

The Audition. I showed up to a screening as part of a class I was taking on horror movies and this night was supposed to be....something else I don't remember and instead was this thing. The twitching bag! That noise! I then had to walk home through the woods. Not that woods have anything to do with The Audition, but it was an unsettling experience.

Only bait and switch that ever topped that was the time I showed up for a screening of The Shining (as part of a different class) and they showed Meet the Feebles instead. Puppet Mobsters! Vietnam flashbacks! As I recall, a giant whale that eats a car!

Posted by: SavageCats at March 24, 2009 4:28 PM

"Hudson Hawk" (Botched Self Trepanation)

Posted by: frumpiefox at March 24, 2009 4:31 PM

Sure there is. And if you act now, you can receive your certified "CTD Jimmy" for the absolutely low price of $19.99*! It's easy to use! Simply slip the large, opaque plastic bag over your head, making sure to enclose your nose and mouth, and tighten the handy dandy tightener located at about neck level. Soon, the urge to watch the movie** will recede! While supplies last, we also provide a tank of nitrogen to pump directly into your nostrils!

Please provide payment in advance. Cash only.


*with three easy payments.
**or anything ever again

Posted by: Shadows of Dakaron at March 24, 2009 4:31 PM

Graindy - that is indeed how I meant it.

I can appreciate Babs, but don't get me started on how she ruined that wonderful book when she directed the movie.

Posted by: mswas at March 24, 2009 4:33 PM

What exactly is shameful about My Girl?

Posted by: Sofía at March 24, 2009 4:42 PM

What exactly is shameful about My Girl?

I think Dustin just gets a yucky feeling when Vada gets her period for the first time.

I'm not suggesting there's anything shameful about the movie itself; I'm merely saying that you may die of shame when your spouse walks in on you weeping like a ninny into your pillow over a few bee stings. -- DR

Posted by: Kolby at March 24, 2009 4:44 PM

Hmmm. I've seen 27. I was not impressed with "Suspiria". "Spice World" had Alan Cumming and Elvis Costello! More enjoyable and surprising? Yes, yes it was.

Posted by: Jay at March 24, 2009 4:51 PM

The cheese factor in Spice World was worth the risk of someone walking in on you and catching you enjoying it.

Barely.


Posted by: Shadows of Dakaron at March 24, 2009 4:54 PM

Well, needing to see Elvis, I of course went to the theater. That shit was sold right out around noon! Came back close to midnight and the kids were, of course, gone. Very relaxing.

Yes, I still have my "Spice World" tour shirt too (and little "Teddy Spice" teddy bear). 1998 sucked but that was fun.

Posted by: Jay at March 24, 2009 5:01 PM

When Vada cries "Where's his glasses, he needs his glasses?!" I bawl like a four year-old after a Big Wheels accident. Oh Thomas J!!

Posted by: Julie at March 24, 2009 5:02 PM

I refuse to cry over boys or other miscreants that wrong me, so I need movies like "My Girl" (and to be honest a fair amount of others on that list) to keep my tear ducts from drying out.

Posted by: Pants at March 24, 2009 5:08 PM

I bite my tongue at thee!

a real contradiction in your prologue,
dustin. a " particularly powerful
reaction " does not describe boredom.
shame, embarrassment,anguish,stupidity
ok but not boredom .

Posted by: snake at March 24, 2009 5:23 PM

I can't believe Twilight isn't on this list, or Glen Or Glenda, or Plan 9 From Outerspace, or Bride of the Monster.

Posted by: BWeaves (from a different IP address) at March 24, 2009 5:27 PM

Oh, my God. Dancer in the Dark just about killed me, as did Breaking the Waves.

Posted by: samantha t at March 24, 2009 5:30 PM

At least now I'll have a way to pick how I die. Here's some more:

The Land Before Time (sadness followed by sudden uplifting hope)
Shawshank Redemption (same)
Shark Tale (shame for the children)
The Heartbreak Kid (Ben Stiller)
Animal House (happiness)

Titanic also causes fatal diabetes and shame if you enjoyed any of it.

Posted by: George at March 24, 2009 5:33 PM

Manos! Bwahahaha...my best friend in high school used to use that DVD to help him go to sleep. Not even MST3K's version could keep you awake.

Posted by: Stef at March 24, 2009 5:34 PM

Well, 19 here to the 21 from Yahoo's list...

I'm not sure how I feel about all this.

Posted by: Tyburn Blossom at March 24, 2009 5:35 PM

Looked up the definition b/c i kept laughing at the thought of dying of it:

Dismay implies that one is disconcerted and at a loss as to how to deal with something.

What a death to die.

Fuck the flu.

Then you haven't seen "The Double Life of Veronique"

Oh Heavens!

Audition was truly icky! That's the best word I can come up with that will cover how I felt when you see whats in the bag.

But seriously, fuck the flu. That shit needs to get bent.

Posted by: Kayanne at March 24, 2009 6:28 PM

54. And I'm still here. And I still can't believe Showgirls isn't here (nice, admin & BSlim!). 21 of them I own on DVD (since gp started counting), and 1 on VHS.

Posted by: gp at March 24, 2009 6:48 PM

Nice list, Mr. Rowles... However, it would appear you've never seen the worst of the worst - Gummo - which would've rounded out the list to a nice, even 100. If I may, an excerpt from my retarded "Personal Information" section on Facebook:

"...Gummo is without a doubt, the worst movie I have ever seen. Ever. I'd give almost anything to take that movie out to a cornfield on a cold, gray October morning and put a bullet in the back of its skull."

Now, I'm sure a lot of work went into compiling this list of atrocities, as well as the cause(s) of death, but until Gummo is nestled betwixt Good Luck Chuck and Half-Nelson, I'm afraid it's incomplete.

Cause of death? Trying to figure out WHY THE FUCK BACON IS TAPED TO THE BATHROOM WALL! EXPLAIN THAT TO ME KORINE! EXPLAIN HOW THAT HAS ANY GODDAM THING TO DO WITH FUCKING ANYTHING! THERE'S NOTHING "ARTISTIC" ABOUT IT - IT'S A PIECE OF BACON! TAPED! TO A FRIGGIN' WALL! WHY?!

Thank you for your time,
Skittimus Maximus Esquire III, and brother Minimus

Posted by: Skitz at March 24, 2009 6:55 PM

An obvious exclusion I can't believe no one's mentioned yet:

Dark Knight (sheer awesomeness)

Posted by: figgy at March 24, 2009 6:56 PM

Bacon...taped...on a wall....

My brain is leaking out my ears a little.

Posted by: figgy at March 24, 2009 6:57 PM

I'm a little bit surprised there's no dig at "Speed Racer" here, but I'd suspected that Dustin was made of classier stuff.

Yeah, "Suspiria" just didn't do much for me. My favorite scene was the long low angle frantic climax exposition, which solved the riddle of the poster proclaiming it was 90-something minutes of terror when the running time was a few minutes longer. "Oh, I guess it was that scene".

Posted by: Jay at March 24, 2009 7:00 PM

IT'S A PIECE OF BACON! TAPED! TO A FRIGGIN' WALL! WHY?!

The wall is now infinately tastier then it was pre-bacon. It now has a rich, smokey flavour.

Posted by: admin at March 24, 2009 7:03 PM

I have a question/proposition for you artsy folk.

Has anyone ever thought to mash-up My Girl and Wicker Man? I mean...think about it.

"Oh! The bees!" *dead Macauley Caulkin*

I think that's kinda priceless right there.

Posted by: JakesAlterEgo at March 24, 2009 7:12 PM

Am I the only one who's seen Kids? That movie fucked. up. my. shit. I saw it when it was released in 1995 or 96, and I wasn't much older than the kids in the film (which makes me pretty damn old) and it messed with my head something awful. Even Chloe Sevigny and Rosario Dawson couldn't save it. By the way, it was co-written by Harmony Korine of Gummo fame.

Posted by: idgiepug at March 24, 2009 7:51 PM

Am I the only one who's seen Kids?

Nope. Went and saw it the day my lovely first pair of glasses broke, so I had the bridge taped together in the theater (snapped right down the center). I felt a bit like Joel and the bots did after "Sidehackers".

"Boy, talk about nihilism, we're never gonna snap out of this existential dilemma!"

Posted by: Jay at March 24, 2009 8:00 PM

I dunno, I think if you watch the MST3K Manos: Hands of Fate you might be alright.

no worries Kayanne, if i fuck up a Shakespeare reference, a spankdown should ensue.

i mean, WTF would "bite my tongue at you" mean, anyways?

obviously, it's a sign i'm a terrible person and deserve another spankdown.

Posted by: Soylent Green is Sheeple at March 24, 2009 8:09 PM

a) Steel Magnolias angers me as a diabetic.
b) Soylent Green is Sheeple, you made me wonder: why the fuck isn't Soylent Green on this list? I hate that movie more than words can describe.

If oooonly it was just you. You just happened to wander down that alley today.

Kayanne's become a little frightening.

Posted by: Jay at March 24, 2009 8:36 PM

gp, I'm sorry, the lure of the skirt is just too much for some people. Myself included. I'll only wear trousers from now on.

Soylent, now I'm confused... Do you want me to spank you, or would you prefer it if Jay had the honors?

Posted by: Kayanne at March 24, 2009 8:37 PM

Hey, don't pass the buck now. I told ya that ain't my scene.

Um..just throwing this out there, but if Jay takes over the spanking duties for Soylent, I would be more than willing to fill that spot. I'll bite my thumb or my tongue or even be thou whoreson zed, thou cursed letter to do so.

Posted by: JakesAlterEgo at March 24, 2009 8:44 PM

Now you want me to spank you, Jake?

Posted by: Jay at March 24, 2009 8:47 PM

Besides, my strength's in my legs, not my arms.

Posted by: Jay at March 24, 2009 8:49 PM

Wait, wait, wait...

When did I become Pajiba's resident mistress?

Posted by: Kayanne at March 24, 2009 8:49 PM

I seem to remember you threatening me. But, you know, it's not like I have any "power" to "exchange" anyway. "Jay in the Dungeon" would be more like "Hey, nice outfit-Ow!....OW! Hey, what the fuck, lady?!"

No, my domme fantasy would be more like "well, maybe she'll be nice to me at least".

Posted by: Kayanne at March 24, 2009 8:49 PM


Resident whore.

There, I fixed it for you.

I'm being "creatively crude" 'cause I love ya.

Posted by: BarbadoSlim at March 24, 2009 8:54 PM

Soylent, now I'm confused... Do you want me to spank you, or would you prefer it if Jay had the honors?

oh, i didn't think i was volunteering for jay, 'specially now that it appears that his preferred methodology would seem likely to involve more "kicking" than "spanking".

was just trying to combine making amends for multiple "brainfart" infractions.

i'm practical that way.

Posted by: Soylent Green is Sheeple at March 24, 2009 8:57 PM

I adore David Lynch, but I can honestly say Inland Empire should have killed me with the realization of my brain's ineptitude.

Posted by: Cindy at March 24, 2009 8:58 PM

Paul, I think I told ya, I'm a lover, not a fighter. I just glare over my glasses.

Posted by: Jay at March 24, 2009 9:01 PM

Jay I think I've only ever threatened Rhyme... *sniffles* But I'm sorry if I've hurt your feelings.

BSlim, I love ya, too, hun, but that moniker correction doesn't quite explain when it happened.

*pouts* Maybe I don't wanna spank anybody. Maybe I just want some ginger ale.

Posted by: Kayanne at March 24, 2009 9:06 PM

Jay, you may spank me whenever you like.

But not in front of my parents, that'd be weird.

Posted by: JakesAlterEgo at March 24, 2009 9:09 PM

Look, I am trying to drink Guinness and watch "Return of the Jedi" (with an intermission to play the Silver Jews' second album) and don't need to get embroiled in no corporal punishment with anybody.

Oh if only I was allergic to peanuts I could end it all so easily.

Posted by: Jay at March 24, 2009 9:11 PM

You'd rather die by nuts then spank someone!?

Posted by: Kayanne at March 24, 2009 9:15 PM

than^

eff

Posted by: Kayanne at March 24, 2009 9:15 PM

Well, yeah, pretty much. I like peanuts at least.

Posted by: Jay at March 24, 2009 9:18 PM

obviously nothing i start will end well today.

all i wanted was some "Castle Anthrax" styled punishment and now i've driven a sick girl to the cold comfort of ginger ale.

oh, wicked, bad, naughty, evil Soylent.

Posted by: Soylent Green is Sheeple at March 24, 2009 9:18 PM

Hey, you could be drunk and listening to the Spinanes, so...silver lining.

Posted by: Jay at March 24, 2009 9:20 PM

I can't believe no one is jumping on that "die by nuts" thing.

Posted by: Cindy at March 24, 2009 9:24 PM

*swats Soylent's ass*

*sigh* I really am this site's resident whore.

Posted by: Kayanne at March 24, 2009 9:25 PM

Well, I think the peanut gallery

HAW HAW HAW!

is following the Kevin Smith story.

Posted by: Jay at March 24, 2009 9:25 PM

oh....that was horrible, Jay

Posted by: Shadows of Dakaron at March 24, 2009 9:29 PM

Blade Runner/Bladerunner is a horrible movie no matter how you write the title.

Posted by: figgy at March 24, 2009 9:30 PM

Hey, Cindy didn't even make up her own bad pun, she just invited one. I had to do the heavy lifting.

Posted by: Jay at March 24, 2009 9:31 PM

I still can't believe he'd rather die be nuts than spank someone.

Maybe he hasn't met the right ass yet.

Posted by: Kayanne at March 24, 2009 9:31 PM

Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn what you think about Rick Deckard.

Posted by: Jay at March 24, 2009 9:31 PM

Trust me, Jay, there's no heavy lifting with those nuts.

Posted by: JakesAlterEgo at March 24, 2009 9:32 PM

Blade Runner/Bladerunner is a horrible movie no matter how you write the title.

Go get 'em, Jay!

Me?

I'm gonna turn the other cheek ... and wait patiently for Kayanne.

Posted by: Soylent Green is Sheeple at March 24, 2009 9:33 PM

Oh isn't there enough pain in the world already, Kayanne? Do I have to sing "Ball of Confusion"? Can't I just make out with Rebecca Gates already? I mean DAMN, I've waited long enough.

Posted by: Jay at March 24, 2009 9:35 PM

I swatted your ass already! You want more?

Fine, but you'd better return the favor when the time comes.
*spanks Soylent*

Posted by: Kayanne at March 24, 2009 9:36 PM

I think the gulf between Jay's tastes and mine just keeps broadening with every passing day.

We'll always have awesome glasses.

Posted by: figgy at March 24, 2009 9:36 PM

I'm groaning on the outside, chuckling on the inside Jay.

Posted by: Cindy at March 24, 2009 9:37 PM

I think I missed a comma there. Isn't figgy supposed to be monitoring that stuff?

Posted by: Cindy at March 24, 2009 9:38 PM

For SHAME, Cindy. Just for that, you now have to use, oh, about 5 commas in your next sentence.

Damn. My 'h' key is falling off. Stupid Dell keyboards.

Posted by: figgy at March 24, 2009 9:40 PM

Fine, but you'd better return the favor when the time comes.

like i could ever refuse you and your love for Shakespearean insults?

Posted by: Soylent Green is Sheeple at March 24, 2009 9:43 PM

*spanks Jake*

Gosh, I'm generous today.

I'm holding you to it, Soylent.

Posted by: Kayanne at March 24, 2009 9:46 PM

Rawr! That spank was even better because I kept myself from begging for it.

Posted by: JakesAlterEgo at March 24, 2009 9:52 PM

Pretty cool list. But right when I excepted your use of the word dismay you confused me.
Does "The Passion of the Christ" really get the same reaction from you as "From Justin to Kelly", "Gigli", and "Glitter"? I'm with you on the shock part though.

Posted by: EricD at March 24, 2009 9:55 PM

I, must forever and ever, faithfully remember to insert, with care, the comma.

Hmm, that seems a bit much.

Posted by: Cindy at March 24, 2009 9:58 PM

I think the "a bit much" line was crossed a while ago. Still, you performed quite winningly.

Posted by: Jay at March 24, 2009 10:00 PM

Condoms, even when properly used, cannot affect the delivery of the most dertermined, efficient and expedient comma.

Posted by: Cindy at March 24, 2009 10:02 PM

Why, thank, you, Jay.

Posted by: Cindy at March 24, 2009 10:04 PM

Figgy you dissapoint me. I know that makes you a sad panda.

Posted by: admin at March 24, 2009 10:08 PM

Beautiful! Beautiful!

*clapclapclap*

bucdaddy would approve.

Posted by: figgy at March 24, 2009 10:10 PM

Now I can't fucking spell!

"determined"

Posted by: Cindy at March 24, 2009 10:15 PM

This preview thing, can't it be outfitted with auto-spell-correct and auto-comma-insert?

The things we have to do on our own.

Posted by: Cindy at March 24, 2009 10:17 PM

admin, it does! But oh, that movie...my SO tried to make me watch it, but I fell asleep about 45 minutes in. He woke me up again, but the rest of it was just horrible and boring and I couldn't get through it. Hated it.

Posted by: figgy at March 24, 2009 10:36 PM

Naked Lunch is an excellent choice if you want a little nausea before death. It's the only movie I've seen that's ever caused a physical reaction - I had to run out of the room after a certain traumatizing scene and take deep breaths to avoid puking my guts out. And I love movies like Audition - to me, NL is much, much worse.

Posted by: Melissa at March 24, 2009 10:57 PM

*sigh*

This job is getting harder and harder, isn't it Jay.

Posted by: admin at March 24, 2009 10:57 PM

Hey, if you're not cop you're little people.

Posted by: Jay at March 24, 2009 11:08 PM

*raises eyebrow*

Posted by: figgy at March 24, 2009 11:47 PM

i remember "the passion of the christ".
it was the feel-good movie of the year, from what i remember.


why don't they do a sequel?

Posted by: gp at March 24, 2009 11:47 PM

figs, finally found you. Message for you on the "Confluence of Evil" thread.

Posted by: bucdaddy at March 24, 2009 11:55 PM

Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn what you think about Rick Deckard.
Posted by: Jay at March 24, 2009 9:31 PM

There are times when I love Jay beyond the telling of it. This is one of those times.

Posted by: Lainey at March 24, 2009 11:57 PM

Aah there's so many to keep track of. I'm fighting in the Miss March thread, it's so much fun.

Don't threaten me with a good time.

Yeah, Batman Forever really does deserve to be the image for this article...

Posted by: Victor at March 25, 2009 5:16 AM

Ah but that was a Two-Face for the ages! Not to mention Jim Carrey giving us the best slow burn since Khan. No, no, you're surely mistaken.

Posted by: Jay at March 25, 2009 6:50 AM

Shutup and go watch Oldboy.

Or you could have a Lars von Trier downward spiral triple feature of Dogville, Dancer in the Dark, and the hope-annihilating Breaking the Waves. With this magical formula, there's no need for chemically-assisted suicide.

Hey, I thought it was pretty touching, Anastasia, even with some goofy parts, and just so damn pretty.

Posted by: Jay at March 25, 2009 11:47 AM

oooh, thought of another one

Come and See = (i have no mouth but i must scream)

a Soviet film from 1985 about the German occupation of Belarus during WW II.

one of the most deeply disturbing films i have ever experienced.

there's one segment in particular that's just so suffocatingly claustrophic you'll want to claw your own skin off to escape.

Posted by: Soylent Green is Sheeple at March 25, 2009 11:51 AM

I'm with Jay in not hating Batman Forever. For the old franchise, that thing was almost genius. And it has that "Holey rusted metal, Batman!" thing that just about kills you with ridiculousness. Loved it.

Posted by: figgy at March 25, 2009 1:39 PM

Hahaha, I'm late in the game, but I wanna say that it's these random and glorious posts and comment threads like this that make me love reading Pajiba.

Posted by: KP at March 25, 2009 2:14 PM

Haha, I would gladly die of whimsy. I have to ask, though -- you don't actually dislike every movie on this list, do you?

Posted by: Ariel at March 25, 2009 4:41 PM

Well, I was kidding about Tommy and Jim (Christ, were they awful) but still, coulda been a lot worse. I saw it at a drive-in and the sun hadn't completely set, and that's a very dark movie towards the end. I'm not entirely sure what the climax even was.

Posted by: Jay at March 25, 2009 5:08 PM

Two David Fincher movies. Nice.

Little late to the conversation, so I don't think it will get answered but I tried watching Eraserhead last week, but I got 2/3 in and the DVD started flipping out (He let his neighbor in after the baby got sick was where the disc stopped reading).

I get there's no explanation to the movie, but did I miss anything that would really help my understanding of it? Or can I chalk it off the list?

Posted by: Jim at March 26, 2009 12:35 AM

Though I did notice, the picture used at the top of this list is from A Clockword Orange. Yet, I don't see it anywhere on the page.

Posted by: Ryan at April 2, 2009 1:59 PM

No Troll 2?

Posted by: Middz at April 2, 2009 5:23 PM

"Weekend" (Gradual French Aneurysm)

I challenge any one of you to sit through the entire movie! Especially the part with the peasants and the rambling about the proletariat and such. Also, the cannibals. Or were they hippies? My mind has denied access to those memories.

Also, any early Cronenberg should do the trick. Naked Lunch (as already mentioned) Shivers, Videodrome, Scanners....you name it.

"He tells me that all flesh...is erotic...and then we make love...beautifully..."
