primer was pretty ridiculous.
mysterious skin, requiem for a dream, an american crime, hard candy. documentaries mess with me more than movies though. stuff like jesus camp and grizzly man makes me question so much stuff. if you really want a trip, you should watch zoo.

Primer is a great example, and pretty much any Lynch-ian film.
Anything Criss Angel.
I can't think of anything that hasn't been posted.

I feel like no one has seen it but me, but 11:14. If you haven't seen it, must check it out.

how has no one mention Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind? Also, the first time I saw the Butterfly Effect was interesting.

Seriously. So perfectly disturbed. To think that Lynch could top that is a mindfuck of its own.
only one movie comes to mind, "totally awesome".
i was so high that i couldn't switch the tv off.

11/19/08, 08:45 AM
The Sixth Sense?

David Lynch's films, Primer, David Cronenberg's Naked Lunch, and I always heard Natural Born Killers was a downer, but haven't ever gotten around to seeing it.

Naked Lunch is a great example, same goes for Videodrome and Dead Ringers. I recently watched a film called Teorema for my Italian Neorealism class and that was a complete "mindfuck" movie, I haven't been able to stop thinking about it.

Is that the one where everything happens at 11:14? The robbery, car crash, etc.

Yep. Kinda the same story structure as Love Actually. A bunch of people have 3 or 4 separate stories that all meet up at one big event that happens at 11:14. Good acting too: Hilary Swank, Patrick Swayze, Colin Hanks, Rachel Leigh Cook, etc.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and I'd consider A Scanner Darkly one. It was crazy how everything played out.

So like i've mentioned before I don't have any control, and I think im going to place one more order with Deep Discount before the sale ends. And I was just wondering if when you made your orders, you ordered anything that was out of stock?
Because it says I won't be charged for this item until it is shipped or something like that, so would I still get the 25% off?

Yes you would, the only thing you do not get the discount on are preorders.
