Head is the weirdest movie I've ever seen.. It's like a case study on what happens if you give 6 guys a couple of cameras and a whole lot of drugs.
Urban legend was that the reason it was named "Head" was because if there was a sequel, they wanted to use the tagline "From the people who gave you Head."
Love Exposure by Sion Sono
Extenssions by him is weird also
Peter Greenaway is pretty weird, although I think The Falls is more "unusual" weird (no real narrative)
than "bizarre" weird. A zed and two noughts is my favorite weird Greenaway. I never saw "The Cook ...."

On Greenaway...for a film that's kind of unique...His 'Draughtsman Contract' is worth a watch...
On the 'strange' , the Quay Brothers 'Street of Crocodiles' is one of many of theirs that just grabs you because the frames look so 'weird'. I'd say Lynch had to have seen the films. All three appear to be on that 'wavelength' when it comes to making their inc of films...;-)...
I've seen it a couple times in the past. The plot line of it is not terribly out of keeping with plot lines of the times. The acting was better than I expected. I didn't find it objectionable at all, but it does stretch the ability of those focused on physical perfection to recognize that people aren't all gorgeous movie actors.
Strangest motion picture...
Melies magic films were odd. Russian Ark with the one camera, no cuts for the length of the film was odd. Fantasia was odd. I'd have to think a while about what might be the strangest film I've seen. Offensive films are a dime a dozen.
Try Hitchcock's Rope. It was shot in 15 minute sequences. It was based upon the Leopold and Loeb murder case.
Also, try Night of the Hunter, directed by Charles Laughton. Interesting light/shadow and camera angles. Robert Mitchum as a serial killer.
