Suggest a Weird Movie!

Please do not ask “what was that movie?” questions on this page. We set up an entire site here to answer those questions. This page is for suggesting movies to be reviewed.

Know a weird movie? Something strange that glued you to the screen with awe, amazement or reverence, while your more mundane minded friends left the room (or theater) in boredom, confusion or disgust? A movie whose omission from a list of the 366 weirdest movies of all time would offend you on a personal level? Something even I haven’t heard of or considered? There are potentially thousands of forgotten films, critically dismissed films, foreign or independent films that never got a proper release, or misplaced oddities hiding out there that may deserve a place at the table. One man can’t be expected to track them all down. Here is the place to mention those treasured curios that no one else seems to have even heard of. Nominate a movie in the suggestion box and I’ll move it up on my review queue, or at the very least, explain why I’m not going to review it.

NOTICE: The “Suggest of Weird Movie!” feature has become a victim of its own success.  At the time of this update, we have about 250 reader suggestions (!) in queue. (More than that since I last updated the page)! Since we can only do 1 or maybe 2 reviews a week, be aware there may be a huge delay—currently, possibly over a year!—between the time you make a suggestion and the point at which it’s actually reviewed.  I considered shutting down the suggestion box as of 2011, but I decided to let you keep your suggestions coming (if nothing else, it tells us what types of movies readers are interested in seeing reviews of). Just be aware that when you make a suggestion, it may not receive the promptest of attention. The best you can really hope for at this point is to bring something to our attention that we might have overlooked. (Also note that although we prioritize the earliest nominations later suggestions may get reviewed before earlier ones if they receive a re-release on DVD or Blu-ray, or interest us for our own inscrutable reasons).

If you can’t wait for one of our staff to review your movie, why not review it yourself and submit it to us via the contact form?  We can’t swear we’ll publish every submission we receive, but we want reader participation and we are fairly liberal.

All serious suggestions will receive a response, as well as all most non-serious ones.

  1. Here’s the review queue of reader suggestions that have yet to be reviewed, in alphabetical order. You can always see this list ordered according to intended order of publication in the weekly “What’s in the Pipeline” column (published on Sundays).

  2. We got a comment yesterday from someone using the handle “Tim Heidecker” and using a Tim & Eric website & email suggesting Tim & Eric’s Billion Dollar Movie (which we already reviewed and decided to pass over for the List). Of course, this was one of the comments that was lost in the recent server migration (which I am still hoping will be restored). It was probably a fake account, but if it wasn’t then it would mark the most famous person ever to suggest a weird movie for review—and we have no proof.

  3. Could you review Tim Burton’s 1983 short film Hansel and Gretel. It was lost for over 30 years until very recently when a copy was found by a website called The Lost Media Wiki that was recorded on it’s one and only showing on Halloween night in 1983. It’s a very bizarre film that features an all Japanese cast, kung fu fighting, unrealistic sets, unusual toys, and many other strange elements. It has drawn very mixed reactions from the people who have seen it. Some people find it very beautiful and imaginative while others find it disturbing and at times repulsive. It’s definitely a very strange and fascinating film in my opinion and truly unique. Oh, and did I mention that it features the music of Johnny Costa who composed the music for Mr Rogers Neighbourhood. You can find it on YouTube.

    1. Well, thanks for that, Ari, I was unaware of this film’s existence. I’ll bookmark it and we’ll see about reviewing it down the line. In the meantime anyone who wants to check it out can find it with a simple search.

    1. I think it’s a good student film, and well-named because you obviously have fun with it. It’s well-edited, the animated sequence was good, and it shows a true experimental spirit. Please keep making films, and try to top yourself.

  4. Maybe someone remember something like this. I remember wahtching it about ten years ago or more.
    There was some group of people who tried to cause clinical death to see if there is something waiting for us after death. I think one of them died when they tried.

  5. Noticed there is no mention of “Bone” by Larry Cohen and “Ninth Configuration” by William Peter Blatty.

  6. James: The Ninth Configuration is in the queue, but Bone isn’t. However, I’m going to skip the Cohen movie and accept your suggestion of The Devil’s Chair instead. It doesn’t look as good as Larry’s film, but looks quite a bit weirder, Thanks!

  7. I must say I really have enjoyed your site. I’ve been exploring for the past two days, going over the lists. As I am a lover of weird and WTF cinema, I have just a final few suggestions (for now).

    Lady Terminator
    Frankenhocker – dir. Frank Henelotter
    Marat/Sade – dir. Peter Brook
    She (1982)
    Perils of Gwendolyn (1984)
    Lost in the Desert (1969) – dir. Jamie Uys ( Child lost in the outback/Passion of the Christ/family film. Out of print)
    Gymkata – (The 15 min. sequence in the town of crazies may make it worthy)
    Charisma – dir. Kiyoshi Kurosawa
    Dagon – Stuart Gordon
    From Beyond – dir. Stuart Gordon
    Day of the Locust –

    Lastly… (bare with me) Crank 2, which I found to be off the rails weird.

    Hope these provide so kind contribution to the final outcome.

  8. James: Thanks for the compliments and suggestions. Please return later as we don’t take back-to-back suggestions from the same person as a (pretty much futile) way to keep the queue length down. I will mention that we did already review From Beyond.

    Roy: Which of the Leningrad Cowboys movies in particular would you suggest we review?

  9. Hi.

    I didn’t see Alan Arkin’s very weird masterpiece Little Murders on the list. I’d like to suggest that film.

    366 is my favorite pleasure! Thank you!

    Best.

  10. The Son of The White Mare ( Fehérlófia) Also, you’d probably dig the video for the Fleet Foxes’ “The Shrine/ An Argument” and Animal Collective’s “In the Flowers” This list is the absolute bee’s knee’s.

  11. panicalmechanical: Somehow, I missed the fact that “Rabbits” had been released on DVD. I honestly thought it was just web-episodes, plus the parts that had been incorporated into INLAND EMPIRE. Even self-appointed experts miss things sometimes. I can add it to the queue.

    Matthew: Thanks! Since you complimented us I’ll add Little Murders too.

    Aaron: Fehérlófia is already in the queue. Cameron the shorts guy will look into those music videos, though.

  12. Hi,

    My name is Guillaume Campanacci, I was born and raised in Cannes, France. I am an engineer turned model turned filmmaker.

    Inspired by Robert Rodriguez first film: El Mariachi, Darren Aronofsky first film: Pi, Christopher Nolan first film: Following, and Shane Carruth first film: Primer, I wrote, directed, produced, edited, shot and acted in my first feature film, Devils in Disguise, for a ridiculously low budget: 4500$, to keep total creative control.
    Devils in Disguise is a psychological drama, a fucked up movie.
    The movie had amazing press at the Cannes Film Festival.

    “One of the more interesting & unusual crowdfunding videos I’ve seen” Mark Stolaroff (Independent Producer Legend)

    The INDIEGOGO campaign we launched for post production and promotion funds for Devils in Disguise reached 80% of its goal in 12 days.
    This is crazy!

    Here is the campaign:

    Would you be interested in doing an interview/article? My hope is that it would add value to your audience.
    Some examples of points of interests:
    How I worked with David Fincher/Emmanuel Lubezki/Jane Fonda/Eva Longoria/Barbara Palvin
    How to shoot a movie with no money.
    How to shoot a feature in 11 days with a 2 to 3 men crew.
    From Engineer to model to filmmaker.

  13. Considering the standard you guys use to qualify movies for the list, I can come up with hundreds of wierd movies that you will pass on.

    However, danish director Christoffer Boe made two movies that might qualify. Would be interesting to see what you think.

    “Allegro” (2005)
    “Beast” (2010)

  14. Not film related, but TV releated. Check out “The Samsonadzes” ..it’s a Georgian very Simpsons-esque show. It’s not particularly weird…just somewhat strange it exist…to me at least..anyone?

  15. Frankenhooker : Man loses his wife in freak lawnmower accident and recreates her ‘Frankenstein’ style w the body parts of prostitutes that he dismantles using super-crack.

  16. I suggest:
    Throw your books rally in the streets(1971)
    Pastrol:to die in your country(1974) -Shuji Terayama
    Private Collections(1979) -Pirre Braugnierre,Shuji Terayama,Walerian Browczak
    Les Fruits fe la Passion (1981) -Shuji Terayama
    Dolls(2003)
    Takeshis(2005) -Takeshi Kitano

    Anime:
    Galaxy Express 999(1979) -Rintaro
    Night of Galactic Railroad(1984)
    Neo-Tokyo(1987)
    Cat Soup (2001)
    Perfect Blue (1998)
    Millenium Actress(2001)
    Paprika(2006) -Satoshi Kon

  17. Todd Haynes’ Safe should definitely be considered. It just recently got a Criterion release by the way. Come to think of it, any Todd Haynes film should be considered. Great filmmaker!

  18. I see a “Safe” in the queue now after I posted. Not sure if its the Todd Haynes film. If so, I’d add “I’m Not There”, his Dylan film.

  19. I recommend “Predestination,” which, like “Mr. Nobody,” is a film that one needs to watch several times to fully appreciate. Upon repeated viewings, the significance of and interconnections between seemingly odd bits of dialogue and random images are revealed, exposing layers of otherwise hidden meaning. Each of these films explores, in its own weird way, the ultimate concerns of human existence: meaning, loneliness, freedom, and mortality.

  20. You guys have gone crazy this week! Will add Frankehooker for Brian, Throw Away Your Books Rally in the Streets for Adam (I think that may have been left off as an oversight), I’m Not There for Brad, Quicksilver Highway for Dave, Predestination (2014) for jeandeaux, and “Hospital Brut” for Parker.

  21. It’s 3am with work tomorrow at 8 and I’m browsing through your site with no intention to sleep soon, it’s a delight to read your reviews. But what I like the most is finding this common spirit that binds all these (extremely) dissimilar movies together, it can be called weirdness or ten other different names, but it’s there.

    So why Browning’s “Freaks” is missing completely here!?!

    Apart from that out of the top of my head I was going to suggest the yummy “Tampopo” (egg-swapping kissing anyone?), Zulawski’s “Possession” and Fulci’s “The Beyond” but I realized they’re on the todo list above.

    So instead I’ll propose two I think fit very well with the substance of the list:
    a) “Neji-shiki” (1998) with Tadanobu Asano playing a manga artist drifting progressively in an inner dream-reality. The tempo of the movie is great. It is also actually based on a manga and more importantly it’s one of the last movies of Teruo Ishii, who like an earlier Miike, from the 60s till the 90s, was shooting multiple movies per year spanning the whole spectrum of Japanese cinema, children’s robot movies, yakuza, martial arts, sleazy erotic-grotesque movies etc.

    b) and something to promote my homeland, there are various oddities from the Greek cinema, but one of my favourites is the
    “Idlers of the Fertile Valley” (1978) by Nikos Panayotopoulos, which is a more youthful cousin of Ferreri’s “La grande Bouffe”, only that this cousin instead of eating himself to death, sleeps himself to death. I know that it has been re-screened in some international festivals but I don’t know if it can be found out there with subtitles, if not I hope it will be discovered and re-issued properly because it really deserves it.

  22. Thanks for the compliments, Archontis. Actually, Freaks isn’t missing completely (though it’s not on the List—yet, at least). Perhaps we want to hold back some obvious titles for later rather than putting everything up front. I will put Neji-shiki [AKA Screwed] into the queue, and we’ll try to keep an eye out for Idlers of the Fertile Valley. You never know what will be rediscovered some day.

  23. More compliments to you guys here at 366 Weird Movies. This is one of the few websites I get excited looking at d.uring the week. Just great job everybody!

  24. There was a movie I watched as a preteen that I feel was kind of soft porn. Early skinamxish lol. Any way what I remember is a woman who restores art coming to a very old mansion to restore a painting. She ends up meeting these two brothers and i thi k she sleeps with them both and they turn out to be ghosts (spirits) cursed to wander the old mansion until she breaks the curse.
    Driving me crazy not knowing the name

  25. I’d like to suggest viewers check out my film Battle at Beaver Creek.
    Filmthreat gave it four stars and called it “One of those weird cultish films that you think you’re not going to like, but then do.”
    Whatever that means.

    We made the film for just under 10 grand over two summers.
    It is about mind control, war, America and the future.
    Please check it out, it might just be weird enough for ya!
    Thanks.
    Brian.
    battleatbeavercreek.com

  26. Just a few possible considerations :
    Return to Oz.
    Adventures of Baron Munchausen.
    Dark City.
    The Tenant.
    Don’t Look Now.

  27. there is this strange movie maybe from the 90s i dont know but all i can remember is there is goat sacrerfices and a guy geting a blow job at a girls birthday party need some help finding what that movie is

  28. Check out “White God”, not the strangest film ever, but definitely something to take a look at.

  29. Also, “Sweet Home” (1989) would be a good candidate. This obscure Japanese horror film is what inspired the original Resident Evil video game. Very hard to track down a copy, it’s on Youtube I believe though.

  30. Hi Jayzon, most of those titles can be found either in the queue or somewhere on the site already (Don’t Look Now is even on the List.) The only exception is Felix the Cat: The Movie, which I will add.

    Jacy: Ask here.

    Brad: We’ll keep an eye out for White Dog (I believe it’s coming to Sundance and then will be released in the US in March).

  31. Check for “Totò che visse due volte” e “Lo zio di Brooklin”, perhaps the weirdest movies ever shot in Italy, made by sicilian filmakers Ciprì and Maresco, all the dialogues are in sicilian language. “Totò che visse due volte” had the honour to be the last film totally banned by italian censorship ( in 1998! the censorship decree was later witdrawn due to the controveries about freedom of speech it raised) it is available on youtube with english subtitles https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0bd4TYUOizo

  32. cinema obscura: we can take a look at Freeway (1996) (we already ruled out Nothing but Trouble, though I sometimes wonder if we should let it back in the door).

    Brad: Sorry, The Spirit of the Beehive is a good movie, but I have to rule it off the List as not weird enough.

    Giuanne: I have heard of these movies; they are apparently very popular in Italy but pretty much unknown elsewhere. I will add Totò che visse due volte to the end of the queue.
