What the shit! Those 2 movies combine some of the most insane imagery I've ever seen.
Inside is about a 9 month pregnant woman being terrorized by some crazy lady alone in a house. (Talk about tension/anxiety).
And Martyrs was about a lot of things. But some girl escapes a human abuse operation and ends up in an orphanage. Has a shit ton of trauma as a result and becomes friends with a girl there. Years later the 2 of them try to find the people that did this and take out revenge. But its so so so so so much more than that. Very difficult to watch.
I was feeling like i wanted to watch something foreign and had heard both movies though very hard to watch were actually good so checked em out.....it was an interesting experience. Not something I'd tell most people to sit through.
Anyways anyone else seen either movie?
Thoughts?

I saw martyrs and I thought it was good, although very disturbing. That poor girl at the end of the movie, that would be awful

Agreed. Such a mindfuck! But a unique story for sure.

Those 2 movies were my first dip into French new wave cinema.....gotta say its jarring. Did I also mention I was on 2 1/2 tabs of very good WoW?
That also turned up the tension and anxiety. A lot.
I'm not a huge fan of watching movies while on acid but last night I had plans of what I wanted to do but made it a couch and movie night.....while tripping.

oh i can appreciate film even more on psychedelics...i get so absorbed in them...watching Miller's Crossing, just for the sheer fact of that films brilliance, will be high light of me tripping career...my friend, he was like "i can't believe how good this movie is" over and over...he was extremely elated by it, and i presume it's because he isn't used to watching non-shit (non-cheesegratable) movies (you those kind we all delight in directly by their sheer numbers, especially him an horror movie and a fan of which was dedicated so had to sit through alot of crap).
but yeah, the power of film man.
probably the most fucked up movie i ever watched on droogs was either Last Night at Marienbad (for confusingness; but it's an allegory for love and it's pretty damn precious on droogs) or, in terms of grossness, shit...Night of Fog. LOL or Invasion of the Body Snatcher/The Thing. and more....
or yeah...lol almost forgot...Blue Velvet, that's probably the most fucked up movie i done seen on droogs.
Raising Arizona was the funniest experience i've ever contracted from a drug purview. i mean, other than Ren and Stimpy/New Adventures of Mighty Mouse (dem cartoons can make me laugh for hours straight) but...Raising Arizona...infinite jest.
