theweaselkingWhat's your favourite movie that you think is obscure, and that relatively few other people will have seen, but that you think they SHOULD see?
I've got a bunch, but today I'm going to go with Weirdsville, where the plot summary on IMDB neglects to mention exactly how funny it is. In fact, between this and Todd And The Book Of Pure Evil I think I'm just going to conclude that Satanists in smalltown Ontario is always going to be comedy gold.
Anyway. Weirdsville. Scott Speedman as a stoner who owes a small-time drug dealer a lot of money, Jordan Prentice as Tyrion Lannister, Matt Frewer as Matt Frewer quietly chewing all the scenery he can reach without moving because he's in a coma for most of the film. No, really. It's funny and dark, the characters are believable and likeable[1], and I think I can count the number of people who I know have seen it on one hand.
And that's sad, because it is very much a good film.
So: What's your favourite obscure movie that you think more people should see?
[1]: Even the villains, who are dicks, are entertaining dicks who are fun to watch.
