We know why you’re tuning in right about now.  With Hollywood set to give out its awards tonight for “Most Conventional Movie,” “Most Conventional Actor,” and so on, you’re interesting in finding out the results of the first annual Weirdcademy Awards.  So, without further ado, here are the results:

WEIRDEST MOVIE: Enter the Void, which was the best Buddhist ghost drug trip movie of the year

WEIRDEST ACTOR: Zachary Oberzan, Flooding With Love for the Kid, for playing dozens of characters, including a pack of bloodhounds

WEIRDEST ACTRESS: Natalie Portman, Black Swan, for freaking out, growing feathers, and letting Mila Kunis get busy down there

WEIRDEST SCENE: The “Love Hotel” sequence from Enter the Void, which deserves a special achievement award for excellence in backlighting genitalia

Speaking of Enter the Void, next week we’ll be giving it another review (now why would that be?)  From the reader-suggested review queue, we’ll also review Vincenzo Natali‘s existential comedy Nothing (2003); Alfred will finish up his series on spooky Terence Fisher with Frankenstein and the Monster from Hell; we’ll take a peek at the obscure indie serial killer flick, M.O.N. (2006); and finally, also we’ll look into restoring the very last of the posts that were lost during the Great Server Crash of 2010.

Search terms used to locate the site seem to be getting more and more normal all the time; it’s getting harder to nominate a truly weird search term of the week.  We are seeing perfectly reasonable, even academic requests for information on “phallic symbols in gamera movies.”  There are a few strange search terms, however; we were as surprised as anyone to discover that we are Google’s #1 result for a search for “orgasimtobea.” (Eat that, Huffington Post!)  We also liked “jenny agutters mim mim”—pending our figuring out what a “mim mim” is.   And, while it’s not weird, “thirsty for women booze and art japanese cinema” pretty much describes how I start feeling about 6:00 PM every Friday.  But for our weirdest term of the week—well, at least the one that made us chuckle the hardest—we’ll have to go with “i am curious yellow pubic hair.”  It’s all in the word order.
