“Des Moines” (1993) - Two cops that live outside the law, Harrison and Tariq, take on the town of Des Moines after a drug dealer takes over the city. The action sequences and stunts are some of the best you’ll ever see.
“Poly” (2011, Bulgaria) - Dasha Nekrasova’s acting debut as a woman caught between multiple romances in the Bulgarian capital of Sofia. Derided by critics for its slow pace, gratuitous nudity, and beastiality scene, the movie is a subtle illumination of Eastern European culture.
“Bim Bom Dancing Fever” (1962) - A square American town is overrun by zombies in drag and only the kids can stop them… by dancing! A schlocky and garish play on 1960’s beach movies that is Americana at its absolute peak.
“Sea 23” (1972) - An ensemble cast stars in this comedy that won multiple Oscars upon its release. Sharp social commentary abounds as WW2 veterans get together to scheme and steal 1,000,000lbs of prime cuts at the Omaha Livestock Trade Show.
“Accelerator: The Nick Land Story” (2005, documentary) - This documentary goes deep into the philosophy and journey of Nick Land to create murderbots in order to accelerate toward annihilation singularity.
“Les Dárkies” (2001, French) - When the Mona Lisa goes missing from the Louvre, policeman Jacques Merde must find the perpetrators using only the clue that ‘les dárkies’ did it. A family-friendly film that will have the kids laughing the whole time.
“Dance Until The Light Goes Out” (1929) - A re-make of a German silent film that was banned by the Nazis. A staid bureaucrat in a major American Midwest city dives deep into its underbelly and finds adventure, pleasure, and horror all tied to the local losing football team.
“José, Ok” (1976, México) - An eerie echo of modern times. Mexican political kingmakers select a literal puppet (José) to run their country while they loot it from the inside. Rolling Stone called it “simultaneously the most Semitic and anti-Semitic film ever”.
“Slonk” (1998) - Widely believed to have kicked off the raw egg slonking phenomenon. Four friends find new purpose in life after beginning to consume massive quantities of raw eggs.
