Plan B Forum

I tend to like movies that don't fit neatly into a little box or create their own little box. Such as From Dusk Till Dawn (the original I refuse to see the sequels out of principal) Which starts out as a crime drama and suddenly without warning takes a left turn into B Movie Horror.

Then there's Romeo Is Bleeding Who's best genre description I've heard (and I subsequently stole) is "a chick flick for guys" that is a movie that is to men what "chick flicks" are to women.

I submit for your approval:'Being John Malkovich', I'm guessing the closest you could get to labeling it is 'science fiction'. Maybe science fantasy? Maybe a science comedy fantasy? It's so full of weird, quirky, improbabilities that somehow manage to support an interesting and engaging story.

That reminds me of Adaptation. It's about that same screenwriter hired to adapt a book about orchids into a movie.

You know, I still think about that movie trying to figure it out, but Nicholas Cage did an outstanding performance before letting his talent go into a death spiral.

From dusk till dawn is definitely a HORROR flick.

However being john malkovich is a STUPID flick...
