5 Random Ass Movies Worth Seeing Part 2

I have decided to take a break from sharing tales about my fuck ups and good times, to recommend 5 more random ass movies I think you should check out. This is my attempt to diversify this fucking blog and to give a shout out to some not entirely mainstream flicks that I have enjoyed. So without further introduction here are 5 random ass movies worth seeing.

1.       500 Days of Summer (2009)

Ok usually I fucking hate romantic comedies and would rather get punched in the balls by Manny Pacquiao than watch one, but 500 Days of Summer is outstanding. Joseph Gordon Levitt gives a LEGIT performance has a guy who falls deeply in love with the girl of his dreams, only to get absolutely fucking crushed by her. Great narration, great story, and the greatest depression induced convenience store purchase of all time (A carton of orange juice, a handle of whisky, and a shit load of Twinkies).

2.       Very Bad Things (1998)

Loved The Hangover? Here’s the complete twisted version of that hilarious classic. A dark and demented comedy, Very Bad Things had me in tears. Think loosing the groom after a bachelor party sucks? Try killing a stripper, a hotel security guard, and then becoming homicidally paranoid about your friends spilling the beans instead. It’s got a solid cast including Jeremy Piven, Christian Slater, Jon Favreau, and Cameron Diaz. If you have a fucked up sense of humor like me this movie is a must see.

3.       The Wackness (2008)

My words won’t do this movie justice but here’s my best attempt. I watched it on Burgundy’s computer two years ago and was mesmerized. Taking place in New York back in 94, The Wackness features a weed dealing teenager, who occasionally smokes with his shrink (who he also sells to), and this kid is just fucking miserable. Featuring an awesome soundtrack, The Wackness is a really solid flick to watch when you’re high, depressed, horny, or honestly whenever. Oh yeah and did I mention it’s got Sir Ben Fucking Kingsley in it?

4.       Go (1999)

Ever come across a random movie on TV you’ve never heard of and just decide to give it a shot? That’s what I did with Go and let me tell you that decision paid off in spades. Go has got it all; sex, drug dealing, undercover cops, violence, and an insane night in Vegas, all of which happen from three different perspectives. Not too many big names in this flick, but it does have Katie Holms, Timothy Olyphant, and Jay Mohr in the cast.

5.       Swimming with Sharks (1994)

In the summer of 2009 I worked in a warehouse and hated my piece of shit manager with a VIOLENT passion. Swimming with Sharks was exactly what I needed to watch, it was like therapy for me that summer, (well on top of my normal therapy). This indie movie is about a young guy who works for one of the biggest studio heads in Hollywood. If you can guess it, his boss is a fucking bastard, just flat out mutilates this guy’s outlook on life during the entire movie. One night (which is actually the beginning of the movie, it’s a flashback type of flick) the guy snaps, breaks into his boss’s house, ties him up and just fucking violently tortures him while recounting the horrible ways the boss has treated him. If you really hate your boss, watch this film it’ll make you feel better, trust me.

I know from the beginning I said I’d make this a solely story telling blog but hey, don’t hate. I just had a desire to spread my love for random ass movies.
