Not really lesser-known, but I was bored last week and watched Jennifer's Body one night. I watched it because I heard it had been positively re-evaluated for some of its themes. I did like the ideas in it, but overall it just wasn't very good. Megan Fox is not a great lead actress, and the friendship with her (popular girl) and Amanda Seyfried (glasses-wearing bookworm) did not seem believable.

"Whatever happened to that album?"
"I broke it, remember? I threw it against the wall and it like, shattered."

For appreciators of extreme filmmaking this German anthology featuring three tales should do the job.

I rewatched this about a year or two ago and I liked it more than when it was new for sure. Still not amazing, but solid.

Teal Stripe - heavy indie rock
Inverted Candles - antifascist blackmetal
Mirage Music Club - YMO worhip (let us score your indie game)

A dark comedy in which a grieving widower agrees to let a mentally unstable Texan with an ill-fitting wig and ridiculous accent cannibalize him. All of the comedy didn't land for me but the gruesome content sure did. Lots of wincing. Laughed a couple times.

While I feel like this might be an April Fool's joke?

I am still sort of interested.

Speaking of German Angst, has anyone seen Angst? What a fucked up film.

We're headed for social anarchy when people start pissing on bookstores.

I've recently just heard of it and it's on my watchlist.

Not too scary or nothin' but it does have a couple of creepy moments, a truckload of fantastic practical gloopy effects, and a bit of humor. Kinda like a Body Snatchery-Thingy-Splintery road movie. Not too long ago I watched Viejos made by the same directing team. Both are good!
