I have to admit that I only once saw the hole move when I'm sober. The other times I just saw parts or I was drunk...

And I dunno I thought the dialogue in the movie was really funny in a absurd twisted humor sort of way. That's the very best kind IMO. But I'm easily amused so...

I agree though the movie was completely insane and all over the place so I can see why some would be like WTF? While others would think hey this looks like fun, I want whatever stuff their taking. I actually saw a comment on youtube where they said, "this movie makes me want to pump myself full of drugs."

Need I say more?

Not really, but movies usually have implicit meanings and I just wondered what it really wanted to tell me. Maybe this time it is just what you see is what you get

I guess I'm just not really in to this kind of comedy.

I actually read the opposite somewhere that it made them not want to do drugs

I always thought they mocked drugs with this movie. Maybe that was the point?

That last statement is priceless.

You're probably right.

But sometimes things can have the opposite effect of what's intended, like tell a young boy not to stick their hand in a light socket, they'll go and stick their hand in a light socket.

Right, reverse psychology.

And I liked the music too. I still want to know what the name and artist of the first song that played in the tub scene was. Not White Rabbit, the one before that. Sounded a little like Jimi Hendrix. I don't know whatever the song was it was pretty freaking cool.

It was "For your love " of the Yardbirds,at the time they recorded that song Erick Clapton was in the band, just before he quits and formed Cream with Jimmy Hendrix

Retro rock lover here

and Jimmy Page take his place. I love The Yadbirds

The music was awesome in the movie, I didn't recognize a lot of the songs, but they fit well.

No that's not the song. I'm talking about the crazy rock playing right at the start of the clip before Raoul cuts the radio off???

**White Noise** · 10-10-2008, 09:10 PM

I can't place it, but I know the song! That's so annoying!

Thanks for the list, that could be helpful, but I still can't place it!

Crack of Doom · 10-12-2008, 09:21 PM

Hehe no worries you guys. Thanks for trying to help me find the song and also the list Karla.

You're probably right about it being an original score for the movie. Hopefully it's one of them in the list you posted and maybe I can I find an MP3 of it. I'll let you all know if I have any luck.

**White Noise** · 10-13-2008, 02:31 PM

Maybe try tracking down some sort of official site for the movie, they may have detailed information about it.

Katinka · 02-12-2009, 05:46 AM

I love the whole bat-country story.

**White Noise** · 02-12-2009, 03:40 PM

This is such a twisted movie, it's like you have to watch it while slightly buzzed to appreciate the imagery!
