Weird and crazy horror movies

Wondering if anyone could think of some crazy and weird horror films like braindead or birddemic. A friend made this video which is a top ten list of them and i was wondering if anyone could think of some similar ones to watch.

No offense, really, but if the weirdest movies you guys have seen are Gremlins and Freddy Vs. Jason, you seriously need to see more movies. A lot more. A whole lot more.

Try some of these:

Funky Forest: First Contact
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0451829/?ref_=fn_tt_tt_1


Hausu
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0076162/?ref_=fn_tt_tt_3

Vegas in Space
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0103192/?ref_=fn_tt_tt_1

Frankenhooker
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0099611/?ref_=fn_tt_tt_1

Chillerama
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1727252/?ref_=fn_tt_tt_1

Maniac (1934)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0025465/?ref_=fn_tt_tt_13

Eraserhead
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0074486/?ref_=fn_tt_tt_1


Those are just off the top of my head. I'm sure others will chime in with plenty of others that can eclipse the weirdness of that list in their opening credits.

Funky Forest - Just WTF is that? That's the weirdest thing I've ever seen! I so need to see that movie.

I also agree on Eraserhead.

For me, I'm sure I've seen a few weird ones but the one that stayed in my mind until now, the weirdest I've ever seen was 'Kondom des Grauens' or Killer condoms. It's basically about condoms that kills!

I would not necessarily recommend (namely the first one because it is too messed up for me)some of these films, but some other examples would be Cannibal Holocaust (this one is really messed up), Videodrome, Slither (I did not think it was too bad, but a lot of people said it was crazy disgusting), anything Fulci (he is well-known for his weird movies)- best examples would be Zombi 2 (includes famous eye gouging out scene), House by the Cemetery, and The Beyond. Also, It's Alive (these are about killer babies). These would probably be some good movies that I think would match your description. No offense, but I have to agree with neverending, that if you put Jason vs Freddy and Gremlins on a list of top ten most weird, crazy movies, then you really do need to watch more movies. Honestly, any of the movies (even the least weird and crazy) would probably deserve to be on such a list than those two movies (although I could see the argument for Gremlins). Don't get me wrong, in my opinion, those are great films, I just don't believe those should be on a crazy, weird list, especially Freddy vs Jason. There were definitely some really weird movies on that list, though.

I swear Cannibal Holocaust is seriously messed up. I lost my appetite for a week after seeing that. I would never ever watch it again even if my life depended on it.

I want to add 'Ichi the Killer'.. them Japanese yakuza are crazy!
I'm trying to remember more. I can't seem to recall the titles for other really messed up movies I've watched.

Some of the weirdest stuff I can think of right now is "Redneck Zombies"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vMHA8cspQaA

Or maybe "Street Trash"

Anything from Takashi Miike, really.

I could consider most of the Tool videos as crazy/weird short films.

Terror Firmer was totally fucked.

Meet the Feebles and Bad Taste, from Peter Jackson

Teeth, about a vagina with teeth.

Tetsuo: The Iron Man

Slipstream

Salo: or the 120 Days of Sodom

The Brain

Those are some strange ones off the top of my head.

Tip of the hat to you, Tokyo for beating me to the punch with The Killer Condom! :P

Visitor Q is as weird as they come, although be careful what you wish for. Weirdness has no limits.

I'll second neverending's recommendation of Santa Sangre. Strange and beautiful, classic, film.

Begotten -- You might not be able to sit through it, but there's nothing remotely like it.

I do not recommend Salo. You'll either want to throw up or fall asleep. Pretentious and disgusting arthouse. Not horror.

All of the above are very weird, however judging by the YouTube video, they might be the wrong category of weird. You might be looking for something more like these:

Basket Case
The Brood
eXistenZ
Cabin Fever 2
Bubba Ho-Tep
The Dentist
From Beyond
Possession (1981)
Body Melt
Demons
House of 1000 Corpses
Planet Terror
The Toxic Avenger
