Man, and I thought The Naked Kiss was good. This movie is just incredible. You can watch the trailer here, but it doesn't do justice to the movie's serious social commentary, and better still, sheer weirdness: LINK

It makes One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest look conventional and was clearly a deep influence on many of David Lynch's characters and images (e.g., the lunatic who thinks he's a confederate general).





It's available on hulu plus and youtube: LINK

I saw it way back then as a kid and thought it was great and funny and scary. Saw it again a couple of years ago and it still okay.

The opera singing nut scenes are some of the best ever.

It's about as anti-racist as it gets, but could you imagine the shite-storm that would come down if some of those scenes were in a movie today?
