If God existed, he's a fake. Or, more likely, a foot. A giant, all-powerful, all-knowing *foot!*
Let's kick off with what has to be top of my list of film cultdom, the brilliantly crazy The Ninth Configuration. I will give no review nor synopsis. I will just beg and implore you to see this before your time on this earth ends.
I caught this while flicking through the tv channels some years ago on Channel 4 (God bless'em). The name William Peter Blatty came on screen (yes he of The Exorcist) and immediately my interest was pricked. It will make you laugh, cry, laugh again and consider your own existence.
I sometime later tracked it down on import DVD but I believe it is now available on Region 2. Mark Kermode helps out with the bonus features and you get some really good insights on the making of this great film.
