10 Movies So Crazy They Shouldn't Exist

4. Taxidermia

Titanic II Titanic 2
Regent Releasing

Receiving a limited theatrical release in 2006, Taxidermia is a Hungarian picture that some find to be a thematic, thought-provoking masterpiece, while others will see it as total trash designed solely for the w*nky chin-strokers out there. Either way, this György Pálfi-helmed feature is nothing if not memorable and brimming with WTF moments.

On a basic level, Taxidermia tells the tale of three generations of men; a perverted World War II soldier who we at one point see having sex with a dead pig; his son, a dangerously obese speed eater who's legitimately training for the day speed eating becomes an official sport; and the speed eater's son, who's a painfully thin loner who enjoys performing taxidermy on himself. When someone being eaten alive by their own cats is one of the more 'normal' things in the film, it's safe to say Taxidermia is quite the twisted trip.

Part dark comedy, part surreal drama, part body horror, and part satirical retelling of history, Taxidermia is certainly something. What that something is, is up to each viewer to make their own mind up on.
