3 Weird Random Movies

Last night i stayed up real late with my friend Mr. B.C. Sterrett watching some bizarre movies (which happens to be something i do alot with B.C. Sterrett)
Here are the 3 movies we watched:

The Magic Weaver
A bizarre Russian fantasy about a solder and little boy traveling to an underwater kingdome to rescue the boys mother. Filled with talking animals and dancing maniacs.

(I can't seem to find any clips or even images from this film... but i will continue to look)

Felidae
A fairly graphic animated film about cats solving a murder mystery.
Here is the Theme song from Boy George...yes Boy George.


Worlds Greatest Sinner
A cult classic about an insurance salesmen that begins to believe he's God and starts a new political party called The Eternal Mans Party. He runs for president whilst rockin out and making out with old ladies.

Gloomy Sunday

Possibly the best Jazz/Vocals song of all time.
Mel Tormé croons this sad, almost eerie song of love lost.

The Bizarre & Sexy

John Kricfalusi has been an artist I've admired for quite a while. 
I loved his work with Ren & Stimpy and his retro bizarre style.
Here are a few examples of his work.

Retro Madness

ILLUSTRATIONS by Julien Pacaud.
quote from his web sight:
"I'm a french illustrator, currently living in Le Mans, France. Before becoming an illustrator, i was, by turns : an astrophysician, an international snooker champion, a hypnotist and an esperanto teacher. I hope i can someday have enough free time to devote myself to my real passion : time travel."
AWESOME!!!
I love and am inspired by these pieces.


















Thanks Julien.
