new-to-me #365 - Rote Ohren fetzen durch Asche (Flaming Ears)

[celluloidrainbow]

FLAMING EARS (1992) dir. Ursula Pürrer & Dietmar Schipek & A. Hans Scheirl It’s the year 2700 in the fictional burned-out city of Asche, and the lives of three women are about to collide: comic-book artist Spy, sexed-up pyromaniac Volley, and reptile-obsessed alien Nun. (link in title)

Picture an alien Joan of Arc in a red polyurethane pantsuit. Picture this alien hunting self-combusting armadillos for dinner. Picture a space where the norms of gender, sex, and physics are as riotously torched as dystopian buildings: Austrian John Waters meets Bladerunner from a very lesbian, ’90s point of view. 

For those up for seriously weird, naughty “cyberdyke” mayhem, Ursula Pürrer, Dietmar Schipek, and Angela Hans Scheirl’s lo-fi sci-fi underground classic “Flaming Ears” will likely disturb and delight.

🎥- Full List! Or just the best of the best. You have good taste in movies and I want to know what hidden gems lurk within.

OMG THANK YOU FOR THIS! It does sound fun to drop all 70+, but in order to avoid a dash bomb, I'll do some of my top movies I watched this year (most fun, most interesting, but above all the ones that stuck with me), in the order in which I watched them:

Nope (2022, Jordan Peele)

Fire Island (2022, Andrew Ahn)

Flaming Ears (1992, A. Hans Scheirl, Dietmar Schipek, and Ursula Pürrer) - cyberpunk lesbians!!!

Diamantino (2018, Daniel Schmidt & Gabriel Abrantes)

The Hitch-Hiker (1953, Ida Lupino)

Sound it Out (2011, Jeanie Finlay)

Lifetime Guarantee: Phranc's Adventures in Plastic (2001, Lisa Udelson) - this hour long doc about a butch woman selling Tupperware with folk songs completely enraptured me

The Aggressives (2005, Daniel Peddle) - Showtime just released a follow up to this documentary that I'm excited to watch

Bottoms (2023, Emma Seligman) - this was Frameline, then I saw it twice more when it was released, it's my favorite 2023 movie

In Her Words (2022, Lisa Marie Evans & Marianne K. Martin) - if you're interested in lesbian fiction, watch this documentary

Chocolate Babies (1996, Stephen Winter)

Blue ID (2022, Vuslat Karan & Burcu Melekoğlu)

Portrait of a Lady on Fire (2019, Celine Sciamma) - this is the time I watched Portrait on a 14 hour flight to Australia and it didn't have English subtitles

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves (2023, John Francis Daley)

Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1996, Fran Rubel Kuzui) & Bring it On (2000, Peyton Reid) double feature at the Castro Theater

Stoker (2013, Park Chan-wook)

Fremont (2023, Babak Jalali) - watched this film at the library in my hometown, where it was set, filmed, and for which it was named

well, that's 17 out of 71! which was not planned. enjoy!
