...well dont realy know if there is a tread thats about movies and films as i didn't saw any toll now ... anyway : ) ... what are your top movies ... here are my top's
"Dark city" : John Murdoch awakens alone in a strange hotel to find that he has lost his memory and is wanted for a series of brutal and bizarre murders. While trying to piece together his past, he stumbles upon a fiendish underworld controlled by a group of beings known as The Strangers who possess the ability to put people to sleep and alter the city and its inhabitants. Now Murdoch must find a way to stop them before they take control of his mind and destroy him.
"Naked Lunch" : (wikipedia says) William Lee (Peter Weller) is an exterminator who finds that his wife Joan is stealing his insecticide (pyrethrum) for recreational purposes. When Lee is arrested by the police, he believes he is hallucinating because of "bug powder" exposure. He believes he is a secret agent whose controller (a giant bug) assigns him the mission of killing his wife Joan (Judy Davis), who is an agent of an organization called Interzone Incorporated. Dismissing the bug and its instructions, Lee returns home to find Joan sleeping with Hank (Nicholas Campbell), one of his writer friends. Shortly afterwards, he accidentally kills her while attempting to shoot a drinking glass off of her head in a demented kind of William Tell routine.
Having inadvertently accomplished his "mission", Lee flees to Interzone. He spends his time writing reports for his imaginary handler, and it is these documents which, at the insistence of his literary colleagues, eventually become the titular book. Whilst Lee is under the influence of assorted mind-altering substances the typewriters he uses become giant talking insects who give him updates and advice on his "mission". Clark Nova, one of Lee's typewriters, tells him to find Dr. Benway (Roy Scheider), by seducing Joan Frost (Davis).
After coming to the conclusion that Dr. Benway is, in fact, the secret mastermind of a narcotics harvesting operation for a drug called "black meat" which is supposedly derived from the guts of giant centipedes, Lee completes his report and flees Interzone to Annexia with Joan Frost.
Stopped by the Annexian border patrol and instructed to prove that he is a writer as he claims, Lee produces a pen. As this is insufficient proof for passage he inexplicably offers a demonstration of his William Tell routine using a glass atop Joan Frost's head. He again misses badly and thus re-enacts the earlier killing of his wife.
