Mostly stills. Two very cool garage (60's) punk songs that were written as satire.
Even in today's age of instant information this is nearly impossible to find.
Robert Downey (Sr.) at his best.

Just Plain Weird (but worth watching):
Special Bulletin
The whole movie is done like it is a news "special bulletin" report about a "breaking" story that terrorists
had taken over a tugboat in the harbor and theaten to detonate the atomic bomb they brought onboard.
Spoiler - The bomb goes off.

I'm with Sarge, Eraserhead has to make anyones list of top 10 weird [Liquid Sky has to make most peeps list, too...except maybe those who spend their whole lives watching ONLY weird flicks].
But I have to say [hopefully didn't elsewhere say it...and I'm gonna spoiler in case someone wants to see it] "The Coca-Cola Kid," which is mostly an occasionally quirky romance with a tad of ironic social commentary, and, IIRC, and related to another thread, stars Julia Roberts brother/cousin/or whatever he is, Eric Roberts....
has a serious disconfabulationism. If you can get through it.

Spoiler
Ends with nuke holocaust just when the boy and girl get each other...with no foreshadowing/reason/hints at all.
[spoiler]Sig-man, Libtard, Stupid piece of shit. change your text color to brown. Mr. Reliable, bullshit-slinging liarFucker-user.[/spoiler]

"Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation."
the hyperbole is a beauty...for we are then allowed to say a little more than the truth...and language is more efficient when it goes beyond reality than when it stops short of it.

The Dark Backward. Indescribably weird.
Frailty. The only movie that Matthew McConaughey has been worth a crap in.
