If you you want full-on vaginal stimulation, and complete disregard for men and the male species,this is a must for anybody. Put your Bikini kill, Red Aunts, and L7 on hold,strip down to your panties, grab your baby oil and pop this video into your VCR. Dr. caligari has great dialog, can start a riot in any grrrl spouse or husband. Guess what? A woman can't be satisfied by her husband, and her husband really tried, but I guess she could stay off the wiener wagon, so he sends her off to an insane asylum. Someone had the sense to play this at "A Nightclub" in Minneapolis,brings out the best in a 1980's art film, compliments on culture,and integrity of the human race. I'll make it twist like a rubberband until it snaps.
... View MoreI absolutely love this movie. It has so many different levels to appreciate. Besides the main twisted storyline that should make any cult movie lover wriggle, there is an interesting use of colors in the film (bright pinks, neon yellows, etc) that reminds me of the Dick Tracy movie. It is also just full of catty one-liners that my friends and I use all the time (i.e., "I know what it's like when a girl needs her prescription filled." and "Ms. Koombs is less aware than the chair that you're squirming in now."). With the strong sexual themes and partial female nudity, I often refer to it as an "art film". I have watched this movie over thirty times, and I still find new symbolism and hidden meanings when I view it each time.I feel that this movie would especially appeal to fans of the John Waters films (Pink Flamingos, Female Troubles, Desperate Living, etc), but if you're offended by sexual discussions involving drag queens and lesbians, this is NOT the movie for you.
... View MoreThis movie is the greatest piece of absurdist cinema ever. Watching is like an intellectual acid trip through the darkest recesses of your brain. The characters are memorable, the dialogue is unforgettable, the scenery is unbelievable, and the whole is greater than even the sum of all these parts. Best line: "Juice me, baby, I'm a shiver junkie." Best character: the cannibalistic pedophile who is addicted to being electrocuted. Best scene: the surrealistic sex scene between the nymphomaniac and the doll-headed man.
... View MoreThis is the visual equivalent of an acid trip. A giant tongue attached to a wall licks a writhing lady. Another woman pops out of nowhere in various scenes saying "Chinchilla! Chinchilla!", then disappears. It is one of the most original movies I have ever seen, you are in for a very different experience if you can get your hands on a copy. You will never ever forget this one....
