Weirdest movie moments.

Girl chased by killer in BodyCount (1986). She hides in an old abandoned bathinghouse and takes off her clothes. wtf?

#1 There was no water in the bathinghouse, so there was no reason to strip.
#2 Then why take off your clothing when chased by a deranged killer?

I guess only director Ruggero Deodato knows the answer to that.

I really love Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life, but I can never quite buy it when she twats that shark in the face and rides it to the surface. Hahah...

I have another one: every single scene in "Our Lady of the Assassins". It's a film about an homosexual writer who hooks up with a teen hitman in Medellín. They spend the whole film arguing with other bystanders, discussions that invariably end with the boy shooting them, and now and then the writer throws expensive electronics out of the window of his flat, then asking the boy "if I hit anybody". Priceless.

I missed that. Director's cut?

When those dudes sabotage their underwater vehicle... thingies... so she has no oxygen or transport from that underwater temple, and so she cuts herself to attract a shark with the blood, then when it approaches her, she gives it a punch in the face, so it flees and she grabs onto it and catches a lift on it as it swims to the surface. Just seemed really stupid compared to the rest of the movie, which is awesome.

I wonder if our British friend is aware that the fine English word "twat" has a totally different meaning on this side of the pond.

I was kind of thinking that.  Only more along the lines of, "That can be used as a verb? "  or, "What was she doing to that shark and how did she do it?  "

In Mortal Kombat Anihilation when Jax went through some kind of werd surgery to get his robot arms, but then he manages to take them off like a glove.

Totem.  Some kids are trapped in a cabin, attacked by killer dolls.  To add some backstory, they splice in footage from an old Viking movie.  I don't know if the demonic dolls beamed it into the character's head, in which case, why was it so grainy?  Just, I dunno.  And this movie has absolutely nothing to do with Vikings.

Showdown at Area 51.  Aliens have this massive invasion fleet in orbit above Earth.  Dozens of ships, some the size of cities.  But the humans destroy some thingie, so the whole invasion fleet immediately turns around and heads home.  No discussion, no "Well, gee, we've got enough firepower to destroy the planet ten times over, maybe we don't need the thingie".  Nothing.  Just "Oh, they broke our thing.  Let's go".

The Thing From Another World.  There's an alien spaceship frozen under the ice, so they plant a few thermite charges, and it completely obliterates the entire spaceship.  I mean, WTF?  Was the whole spaceship made out of gas-soaked rags or something?  I could see doing some major damage to the hull, but...it's just entirely disintegrated?

Yes, it means that here, too. But it can be used for other stuff, and I think it sounds rather funny in that context.

Attack of the Sabretooth (2004) - when the sabertooth sculpture's fang goes through the bad guy's head and it goes all cartoony .

Supercroc (2007) - the "screen is blurry so we don't have to do the CGI right" scene.

In their defense, this happened in the short story the movie is based on - but it was explained there.  Apparently the hull was made out of magnesium or something.

That reminds me of Ace Rimmer (Chris Barrie) 'Croc-surfing' to earth from an exploding plane in Red Dwarf!

[Neville]

Oh, I remember that, it was great. One of the highlights of that season, for sure.

I was watching My Name is Nobody the other night, again, and though the movie is filled with some scenes that are particularly odd for a western, the one that just stands out as a WTF moment is the urinal scene. That scene is actually cut from some prints of the film.
