Funky Forest: The First Contact - El Dingo - 01-05-2007

IMDB link Funky Forest

From the director of "The Taste of Tea" comes a surreal collection of sketches that range from silly to disturbing. This would be a good DOOM film except that it clocks in at 150 minutes, 75 of which are less than engaging.

I'm sure culture has to do with a lot of these skits and mere subtitles are not going to explain why 2 guys in white suits having an argument is captivating cinema. However you don't need subtitles when giant bloodsucking leeches shoot out of a mans pants while a young girl tries to swat them with a badminton racket (after that the scene starts to get weird).

I highly recommend this to Cranefly, everyone else would probably enjoy it, but be prepared for a long movie. I watched it in 10 minute segments over a couple weeks.
