Tattoo (circa 1981)
(1) The main character Karl is a tattoo artist, who is former military, a
loner, obsessive, and seemingly quite insane. He steals away the object of
his obsession, Maddy, who is a model and very untattooed. While she's
drugged, he tattoos her with a full-back style tattoo. When she came
to...well she didn't like that so much.
(2) Haven't seen any other movies with the whole plot surrounding really
cool Asian style tattoos.

Santa Sangre - Damm - i'd totally forgotten about that movie. It was
psycho. Like more psycho than 'Psycho'. Damm Damm Damm... Yea, there's
not really any other movies like it.
Titus
1) Because everybody dies. Even the good guys. Extremely Brutally. And then
even worse stuff happens to them. When shakespeare writes a tragedy, he
doesn't fuck around.
2) There are no other movies like this because most film versions of
Shakespeare plays aren't graphic (romeo and juliet for instance). Nothing
that was written specifically for film would dare be this graphic and
wicked 'cause the writers would be worried about getting it produced. Plus
nowdays, most writers seem to think that once the good guys are done
killing the bad guys that enough is enough - and that there's no need for
them to go killing the bad guys parents, or children, or their own
children, and friends, and pets, or themselves.... And if they do, they
certainly aren't good enough at it to make the viewer think it was all
justified.

Momento
1) The main character has no short term memeory whatsoever due to a head
injury. The last thing he can remember is watching his wife die. He tattoos
important facts on himself as he hunts down her killer and goes through all
sorts of emotional ups and downs.
2) Chronologically, the movie goes backwards. You see the ending, then they
show you how it got there. ____________________

Santa Sangre
1. It is about one man's decent into madness. There is a character who
wears a black tutu with white face paint. An elephant dies, and you will
cry. It was co-written by Dario Argento's brother. It features a cult.
The colors in it are all beutiful. The main characters are a tattoed
woman, a bunch of clowns, a knife thrower, and guy whose relationship with
his mother puts Norman Bates to shame. Because the ending is truly sad and
happy at the same time, which is rare in any type of movie.
2. There are no other movies like it, at least that I have yet to see.
Get the NC-17 version if you can find it, but in a pinch R will do. ____________________

dark city
1) it is a place where people are forced to live in perpetual darkness and
their existence is manipulated as if they were puppets every night while
they sleep.
2)the story line is pretty philisophic for an alien movie.it is quite
deep.

Labyrinth
1-David Bowie as a villian with a muppetly-correct wardrobe that is still
slick as ever (above the waist anyway). Jennifer Connelly as an angsty
whiney teenager. The ballroom scene.

Eyes wide shut
1) Because the last word in the movie is "Fuck" - because EVERYONE gets
laid but the main character - Because everyone gets laid in interesting
ways - because Kubrick managed to have a reasonably graphic gothic orgy
scene and still get it an R rating.
2) Other directors don't have the balls to get their characters laid as
interestingly as Kubrick
Heavenly Creatures
1) Cuz kate winslet is a lesbian (sorta). Cuz the relationships are
complex. Cuz Makebelieve land is goth as fuck. Cuz it's psycho and pretty
at the same time.
2) Other movies don't remind you of borderline psychos you know nearly as
much as this one unless you need more interesting friends. ____________________

(I can only think of one right now, sorry...)
Gattica
1)Story about guy pretending to be someone else, in an attempt to show them
that he (a second-class citizen) can be just as good as society's perfect
humans.
2)Kickass futuristic-but-1930s look to it.
3)Its got a cute blonde chick that dresses in black. (need I say more?
