Double Bill of Weird.
Weirdies (2018) Dir Chris Seaver
The team behind Warlock Home Video and Low Budget Films produced what could be described as the answer to What if a pervert made Stand By Me. Yes the story of kids walking the traintracks to see a dead body but SPOILER its just because they are super pervy and want to see a penis with rigamortis. Laugh out loud funny if not gross to the max. An 80s flash back with dick jokes to knock you out of the park. A little better produced then the usual Chris Seaver affair and the added little bit of subtlety oddly makes it even more gross in rude. A plus performances from company regulars Josh Squire and Alex Lambert who push the limits of their usual personas. If you have never seen these films this movie may leave you with your mouth hanging open in shock of the language and oddity with some wonderful musical numbers you would never see coming. Basically this movies wacky humor is not a sexual innuendo yet characters that talk about a sex so strangely you eventually have to stop and say to your self “wait do I even know what sex is anymore?” The weirdsies will make every outcast geek feel like a very normal part of society. An 80s sexy comedy on LSD. Add in a rubber cock and an homage to Leslie Halls Watch out for my Body Rolls out of no where. The mad man behind this Chris Seaver has been holding onto this movie for a while only selling a blu ray directly but has now add it to his It Crept from the 80s youtube page so that us stuck at home can enjoy some rude weirdness for free and for fun fun fun funnnn.
Jessies Super Normal Regular Average Day (2020) Dir Brian Williams
At first you think you are in the same universe as the Weirdsies with the stoner characters , bright colors and ridiculously upbeat Ska music but this movie is barely a world at all. Its way out there. Imagine Bill and Ted walk into Naked Lunch and make a sequel to John Dies at the End filmed almost entirely in two living rooms and a few closets. A stoner surreal comedy of the most psychedelic level while still being deep down a Cheech and Chong film. Take a puff and say whoa dude to the always adorable Ellie Church as Jessie who wakes up one day and finds reality has broken and it is trying to speak to her through the use of drugs and a random snail... yes a snail that may or may not be god. Imagine deeply if Douglas Addams Wrote a Cheech and Chong movie where Cheek and Chong were the beautiful stars of Space Babes from OuterSpace. At first I had my usual reaction to surreal movies that say shit like “dude the world is all an illusion” which was “aw go fuck yourself ya stoners who wish the world was all an illusion cause the concept of their boring life being real is too depressing” (yes I often say those exact words) buuutt after giving a few seconds I took it back. It makes noooo fucking sense but who cares cause its bright and funny , pointless drunken partying Ellie Church and Allison Maier are adorable stoners and also like Weirdsies its filled with no budget musical numbers that are surprising charming. Add in topless nuns with chainsaws from another dimension speaking in some of the silliest tag lines ever and its alot of dumb fun. It could be because like the title character Jessie I too wake up every day with nothing to do but sit and watch tv with some bong rips and wonderful what is happening as the whole world is going through a dramatic change and wonder if it effects me or not then in the end I just make a sandwhich and go back to bed. Shockingly this movie was made before the pandemic but seriously seems to know more then its giving away.. dun dun dunnn.
