Lets have a thread where we give recommendations and discuss obscure movies.

I am pretty new to this so I don't know that many. Tetsuo: The Iron Man is the closest I can get to an obscure film. Whats your thoughts?

Tetsuo ain't that obscure imho. Still one of my favorite films of all time

I know but its the most obscure movie I know about and that should tell you something. I need more like this. Just weird little indie movies from whenever.

Thank you friend. The Italian general on /int/ did not help at all.
I don't mind if it is in Italian, it's slow reading but I enjoy it nonetheless. Currently I am reading Focault's Pendulum in Italian and English at the same time, it is too difficult to read in Italian alone. I've read some Baricco and Calvino. Thanks for the recommendations.

The ambassador

Here a danish documentary filmmaker posing to be a diplomat with false papers is riding in a boat with his two pygmees.
>>
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105235/

French-Canadian (based on real life, but they changed the names) movie filmed in POV from the perspective of several different characters.

The movie is actually more "realistic" than the real life person they're taking the story from.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Blass

That guy was fucking badass.
>On October 1968, Richard Blass was injured by bullet shots to the head and back after being ambushed, alongside partner Claude Menard, inside a garage. The two were able to save their lives when Menard drove the car they were in through the garage's door, and Blass required hospitalization for his wounds. He refused to identify his attackers, a fact which may have led him to earn respect among Canadian mafia members.

That's not even the only time he was shot in the head and survived. The guy was called The Cat for a reason (The Frog in the movie version).

It's not an action movie though. But it's good and pretty obscure.

Yes, it's a mainstream Hollywood movie, so not 'obscure' in the sense op requested; however, the passage of time may have rendered it less prominent and it's just as scathing a critique on the studio system as Altman's The Player and deserves to be seen on those grounds

canadian alternate timeline post-apo movie made with 25 cents and a rubberband. It's pretty good though. One location (a bunker duh) and only a few actors. You will see the ending coming a mile away, but it's still a good watch and pretty obscure.

Would recommend anything by Tsukamoto really. His style of film making in Tetsuo is prevalent in all his works (bordering on abstract imagery, usage of titles, hand made FX, camera movements to reflect mood and strong colour balancing) so if you liked it in Tetsuo/II, you'll love his other works. Recently picked up Tokyo Fist on blu-ray, shit's great.

Ikr? Not least because of the evident exploitation of the filmmaker: check out Luckier Valentine interviews, he's a real piece of shit and a total bullshit merchant; justifying his emetophilia, in his other work, as some kind of transcendent high art
