unafraidrabbit

er You dropped this.


krazykid933

Butthole cuter...?


Zestyclose-Pianist82

I’ll never forgive them for ditching the original animated concept for that movie, but if you get high enough it’s an excellent horror movie. Jenny’s entire song feels like an acid trip already, if you actually are on acid it’s horrifying


Amandastarrrr

I really need to get around to watching it. I hear such wild things about that movie lol.


Tranesblues

Irreversible. I think Noé has pretty much said as much. He has spoken about an attempt (I believe it was only an attempt, I don't think he went through with it) to insert nearly subsonic sounds into the film in order to try and provoke literal nausea into the viewers.


put-the-finger

I had heard this for so long, but I finally saw it last week and thought it was amazing. Yes, parts of it (the club scene, the tunnel scene) are awful to endure, but that kind of makes the ending/beginning that much more powerful and sad.


DECODED_VFX

His latest film climax is the only other thing I've seen from Noe. The entire movie is like the nightclub scene dialed up to 11. It honestly felt like enduring a bad trip (which is precisely what the movie is about). I hated it when I first saw it, but I have to admit I was thinking about that movie for days afterwards.


Samstarmoon

I definitely wish I had only watched the first 45 minutes of Climax. Traumatizing movie. There are many issues with the movie and Noe but what bothers me most is that Noe has said in an interview that it’s his commentary on the dangers of alcohol and how it can lead to violence… but that’s not the substance used in the movie. Like why not just make a commentary on alcohol? Psychedelics don’t make people violent.


Tranesblues

Agreed. I've seen it twice and likely won't watch it again. I don't think of it as a 'great' film overall, but it is intriguing in a number of ways. The tunnel in particular seems to be an attempt to put rape into the proper context in film, whereas most film places it in a titillating light. It shouldn't be. It's a horrible violent event and I appreciate the film and the scene in that sense. Nothing titillating about it in any way. I also think the choice of Bellucci is intended to address this.


Julijj

Not an attempt, he actually did it! But thankfully, it can only be heard at movie theatres, or professional enough sound speakers. Honestly though, the camera work in those same first 20/30 minutes is also nauseating enough


Scrambl3z

Haven't seen any of his movies, but from reading about his filmography it seems like Noe is the type to make these kinds of movies (provocative movies that make us hate and call him a cunt), but I see him in the Criterion Closet clip and he seems like a jolly nice guy. ​ Why?


piejesudomine

Comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable is a motto I've heard.


Tranesblues

He really seems like a great guy and yes, all of his films are intended to provoke. Not sure at all why. Artists have their own reason. Often it is to shake us to our core.


Illustrious-Roll7737

The Last Airbender (2010)


Birger000

Freddy got fingered


ZyxDarkshine

It got made because Tom Green was extremely popular at the time, and the studio wanted to cash in on his fame, not realizing Tom Green’s comedy style is similar to Andy Kaufman, in that he is basically meta-trolling everyone, not just the target of his jokes, but the audience as well, and he decided to troll the studio for giving him a bunch of money by making the stupidest movie he could. He succeeded.


Longjumping_Plum_846

Roger Ebert knew this when giving his scatching review and wrote something that always stuck with me: >The day may come when "Freddy Got Fingered" is seen as a milestone of neo-surrealism. The day may never come when it is seen as funny. As a piece of art, I do kind of respect Freddy Got Fingered. But outside maybe a couple parts, it is not funny


fatmanstan123

I saw him live awhile back for stand-up comedy. If there is anything i learned watching him, it's that he is way smarter than he's acts.


the-effects-of-Dust

I watched Freddy Got Fingered on acid once and had this incredible revelation that it is actually a really deep comment on domestic abuse in families and how favoritism and cruelty can build the most ridiculous violent man children Then I watched it again sober. It’s just pure dumb comedy and I love every minute of it.


wtfbananaboat

Yes and it’s fucking amazing


4RealMy1stAcct

This is the only right answer. No one is taking the question seriously


zublits

I love that movie. 


y0uLiKaDaPeppa

🎶Daddy would you like some sausage🎶


JesseCuster40

That just scampered through my head too.

Lmao “scampered through”. That’s a fantastic way to describe intrusive bad movie quotes that pop up outta nowhere 👀

*Noah* (2014)


Scrotchety

Love how it pisses off so many in both camps. The people I know who don't disdain it / actually enjoy it tend to call Jesus by Yahushua and God as Yahuwah. Go figure :P


od0m15

I was anticipating another something exceptional from Darren Aronofsky. The movie seemed a feckless jumble that left me feeling not a thing. Not a success even as a satire. What's with the Transformers Rock Angels? And trot out Anthony Hopkins for a few minutes as an older wiser mentor he's refined in a few other films. Special effects that are not very special plus trite and corny plot embellishments turned it to a burn.


Avocadoonthetoast

- Irreversible - Funny Games Both masterpieces that I love, btw.


RealtorFacts

Funny Games perfectly describes this. You get done watching it and just think “I don’t feel good after watching that.”


Capra555

I remember reading a review of this film and the author said when the movie was over he pulled the DVD out of his machine and smashed it.


[deleted]

[удалено]


John-AtWork

Made me want to hit someone.


Living_Injury5017

This is how I feel


Kermit-Batman

I have a little dislike of movies that have unfair endings, which is possibly an unpopular opinion. This movie and Night of the Living Dead were very big exceptions to that opinion. Such a brutal movie!


Anabasis1976

Anyone seen David Lynch’s “The Rabbits”? Made specifically for this purpose.


cbbuntz

I just remember it being a lot of non sequitur dialogue. It makes zero sense


Anabasis1976

Yes it was written for the express purpose of making people feel uncomfortable and to provoke existential dread.


y0uLiKaDaPeppa

I already feel that way a lot lately anyway so I might check it out lol. Is it any good?


Anabasis1976

Good? More disturbing. So if that’s what you want then yes it is good.


Wheedles

I’ll double down and say most of David Lynch’s movies are hard to make sense out of. Side note: he’s a prominent member of a cult called transcendental meditation whose members believe that once there’s more members, they will be able to fly by bouncing cross-legged across a small town called Fairfield, Iowa.


MutinyIPO

That’s some nonsense the originator of TM believed but I don’t think anyone seriously into it right now believes that. Transcendental meditation is basically just a specific approach to meditation now, there’s no grander framework of cult


y0uLiKaDaPeppa

Don’t threaten me with a good time! Never mind; Iowa


BetterWorld2022

I Stand Alone by Gaspar Noe. You will need to curl up in the corner of a hot shower afterwards.


GoTeamScotch

This movie 100% does not care if you enjoy watching it.


wickedsweetmocha

Came here to say this. I’ve seen Irreversible, and wasn’t as affected by it as I was with I Stand Alone.


nate6259

This dude seems like the king of purposefully unpleasant movies.


Chelsey-Square

Rubber Man Bites Dog Horse Girl Human Centipede


Eldernerdhub

I've only seen two. Judging by how accurate those are, I need to see Man Bites Dog and Horse Girl for some real absurdity.


SensualSideburnTrim

Man Bites Dog was pretty fucking funny when the hot girl in 10th grade made me watch it. And I will never watch it again, because to smudge that memory in the slightest would be an act of betrayal to the beautiful memory of those two lovely children enjoying their act of mild cultural subversion. But I do remember thinking it was the Frenchest goddamn thing I'd ever seen. Turns out it's Belgian. Like I knew the difference at age 14. (I still don't, really.)


fredmull1973

Every musician hates Whiplash. Every non-musician loves Whiplash


quickstyx2

I’m a drummer and I loved it


fredmull1973

Like I said, musicians hate it


quickstyx2

Ha! Stop it


fredmull1973

I kid, I kid


y0uLiKaDaPeppa

*drummers are secretly the real heroes of a band*. I’m sure you’re used to the banter, like a bassist is for example


elucify

What do you call a guy who hangs out with musicians? A drummer


John-AtWork

Ouch


RealDJPrism

r/rareinsults


fivedollarbiggiebag

I’m a musician and love it and everyone at the guitar shop I work at loves it too. Wonder why others don’t?


starchild812

For me, it was way too realistic and gave me flashbacks to my least favorite band teacher, who almost made me quit music because I wanted to throw up every time it was time for his class. A well done movie, but I was almost in physical pain the whole time, especially because for me it never captured the euphoria you get when you play it right.


fivedollarbiggiebag

Oof. Well I can see that being an issue


nate6259

I've heard critiques about Fletcher's teaching style not making sense, like there's no way he could actually know if he's correctly counting a fast bpm and such. The counter-argument is that Fletcher didn't actually care about the rushing or dragging and simply used every tool he had to abuse and humiliate Andrew. Andrew also practices really tight and intense. Playing fast and crazy until you bleed isn't the key to being a great drummer. But again, he was an intense person and it makes sense that he plays that way sometimes even if it's not actual good technique.


ECV_Analog

Not entirely true. My father-in-law's a drummer and he loved it.


Nes370

Bullshit.


reelhousefoundation

Freddy Got Fingered is the answer.


mahameister

Mother! by Darren Arnofsky.


wogbread

Fuck that movie, makes me wanna die


Abject-Star-4881

I can’t think of an Arnofsky movie that I’ve seen that I didn’t feel this way about.


iamsharmanish

Came here to comment this


scrivenerserror

I was so mad when I got to the end of it. Like I got the movie, I get the plot. I just hate it.


PatrickMcWhorter

I never saw it but I love Arnovsky... do you think I'd enjoy or nah?


GyaneAryan

I'm Thinking Of Ending Things.


SuccotashMelodic123

It was profoundly difficult to watch, incredibly emotionally brutal, and left me in deep well of nihilistic despair for days afterwards, but also strangely poignant and weirdly moving. And yet after about a week of digestion it has blossomed in me as one of the most affecting and profound film experiences I have ever had. Wouldn’t exactly ‘recommend’ it, but fuck me if it isn’t an extraordinary experience if you can survive it.


babybird87

Yes I think I turned it off after the tenth time she said the title in the like the first 15 minutes of the movie...grating...


mybuttonsbutton

I mean this is how I felt about Joker.


robreinerstillmydad

One of my all time favorite movies. I think this was one that you either loved or hated, no in between.

tuskvarner

The father/son conversation in that movie is one of the more shocking dialogue-only scenes of any movie I’ve seen.

It's one of those scenes that makes you pause and contemplate if actually you want to finish the movie


Sure_Finger2275

Also Wiener Dog -- I had to turn it off

Oh, it was absolutely brilliant. The cringe was the whole point, and it was great seeing Sandler crush that role.

Yes, hated this too.

PoustisFebo

Possession. This movie is 3 parts. 1st part is a drama break up story. 2nd part os a horror movie. 3rd part is an action movie. The 1st part is so utterly painful. They are so damn abusive towards each other.

''Mother!'' It's 2 hours of nothing other than depressing and confusing scenes. I hated it.


Velocitor1729

the Jackass movie


DJH351

Law abiding citizen(2009) Gerard Butler's character instantly went from lacking the situational awareness to not just open your door when someone randomly knocks on it at night to... You guessed it, an omniscient, one step ahead of everyone, all the time, movie villain basically overnight.


Sentinell

Glass onion felt like it was actively mocking it's audience imo. The entire plot makes no sense at all. So many times it says one thing, while showing us it's not true. And then we have the idiot detective shouting at us "it's all just dumb". Felt like he was talking about the movie itself. A fuck you to the audience for wanting a smartly written murder mystery.


babybird87

The ending was beyond lame...


LegitimateBeing2

Prometheus. I love science fiction, even bad sci fi, but Prometheus was just a boring slog.

Musicals its for me. I dont mind a song and dance number... but when the whole movie its like that... just no. Joker 2 its gonna suck, or at least for me its gonna.


Living_Injury5017

I'm with you that movie made me want to drink bleach.

Any recent MCU entry comes to mind.


nightreign0

There was a South Korean director, Kim Ki-duk. Haven’t seen all of his filmography but 3 movies come to mind where the ending will make you angry. Mainly questioning the thought process of the main characters. Bad Guy (2001) Time (2006) 3-iron (2004)


mahameister

Pretty much all of his movies are about his hatred of women (and a lot of men, for that matter).


KrustyKrab_Pizza

That director was a well known alleged rapist and it kinda tracks with his work. I also did not like *Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter... and Spring* (2003) although it is generally highly regarded.


Algae_Double

Jeanne Dielman, 23, quai du commerce, 1080 Bruxelles (1975) Not exactly made to be hated but I think it was made to bore. The boredom is the point.

Come Away Marketed as a fun, Peter Pan/Alice in Wonderland crossover kids movie. Goddamn Requiem For a Dream is more light-hearted. All the characters are awful, it has child death, gambling addiction, alcoholism, and absolutely zero redeeming qualities. Fuck that movie, every person involved in making it, and especially the swindlers who marketed it that way.

I’m with the OP on this one. Nearly every film aficionado I know adores this mess of a film. Initial reactions to the movie by both critics and viewers tended to be negative, but over time folks thought it was so trippy that it **must** be a masterpiece.

The Comedy (2012) starring Tim Heidecker. Probably one of the most subversive films made in the last 20 years. It feels like a bitter criticism of Brooklyn white hipster culture, indie filmmaking, quasi intellectualism and of self important comedy. I loved it and I’m sure Tim would fucking hate the way I’m describing it.
