Title: The Dark Backward
Post by: Fishbulb on June 17, 2001, 04:38:28 PM
I just renting this movie last night, and good lord! Its got to be the strangest movie I've ever seen. But when I think back on it, I want to see it agian! Anyone else see it? I bet there are a ton of scenes in this film Bill Paxton doesn't want anyone seeing these days, if you know what I mean.

What's it about? It can't be much stranger than Paxton's early appearances in Barnes & Barnes' music videos, especially "Fish Heads."

Judd Nelson is a garbage man who trys out a career in stand up comedy, but he sucks. Later in the film he grows a third arm out of his back and Bill Paxton convinces him he will be a huge star with a gimmick like that. As for the Paxton comment I made, well he plays a strange guy who has a fat lady fetish, and even has a sex scene with 3 other 400 lbs women on Judd Nelson's bed in the movie. Theres another scene that involves Paxton eating 3 week old chicken which has turned to slimey mush on a chicken bone, and last but not least, a scene with him licking a dead womens nipples at a garbage dumb. One f**ked up movie, but I loved it.

I remember this one.  I haven't seen it for several years though.

You're right, it's one messed up movie.  In fact, the reason I haven't seen it in so long is that it's not available for rent anywhere in my neighborhood.

I don't know.  Was it very good?  This was the period when I was watching weird movies for weirdness sake.  This was second best to RUBIN AND ED.  Hell, there's probably some sort of Hollywood subtext running through the movie.

BIll Paxton is ubiquitous.  From his intro on "Fish heads, rolly polly fish heads" to WEIRD SCIENCE to NEAR DARK to ALIENS to TWISTER, he's all over the place.

Paxton was also the blue haired hooligan from Terminator 1

I have seen this movie on HBO it's one freaky movie to watch it also have Lara Flynn Boyle as the so so girlfriend of Judd Nelson. It's pretty good at the begining but the ending sucks bad.
