14 Awesome Movies That Make No Sense Whatsoever

1. House (1977)

The Plot: A young school girl named Gorgeous (Kimiko Ikegami) visits her aunt for the summer and brings her six pals along with her. However, the aunt's house is possessed and becomes hell-bent on devouring each and every one of them. Most WTF Moment: One of the girls, Melody, plays the piano to try and keep things happy, but it comes alive and bites her fingers off, followed by one of her hands, and finally, it gobbles her up whole. As the last of her body makes it in, one of her arms is sliced off and lands in a fishbowl, while the rest of her severed limbs dance around the screen (with hilariously shoddy effects to boot). Why It's Awesome: House was quite clearly made one a shoestring budget and lacks any discernible internal logic, but it's also terrifically entertaining on the virtue of director Nobuhiko Obayashi hurling so much inspired insanity at the screen. There's not a dull second in this energetic haunted house movie, which shows that filmmaking passion can easily overcome amateur acting and a lack of money. Which insanely nonsensical movies are your favourite? Shout them out in the comments.
