It\u2019s not just the dude stuff or the trippy images with disassociated dialogue. It dawned on us that what makes a film a stoner movie is its sense of reality, a certain observational distance\u2014Zen detachment. They don\u2019t all show ganja on screen or even touch on weed culture, but they all have in common the state of being stoned.The point being: If contemporary consensus reality with its abusive half-truths is clearly losing its mind, artists, filmmakers and cinephiles have the right\u2014even the dharma\u2014to subvert and shatter that cherished mirage.All we weed is love.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Dr Alice Skinhead<\/strong><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\" style=\"text-align: center;\">.<br \/>\nprogrammer<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\" style=\"text-align: center;\">__________________________________<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n<p><b><i>Love Is All We Weed To Heal The World<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p>Existential anxieties are peaking among some very angry women, vengeful men, raging artists,<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp; <\/span>claustrophobic Thais and one very wronged Indian dwarf, according to this year\u2019s 59 films from across the world.

ending. Nasty mother-in-law from hell abetted by brat daughter browbeats daughter-in law Ruby \u201cthe barren girl\u201d and urges her son to take another, fertile wife as his religion permits. But he loves her. Despite the life insurance commercial treacly piano, despite the IVF song, it keeps us watching, mesmerised by hysteria and intensity as grief piles upon outrage after outrage and Ruby is taken into the mafia mansion in full chador with only her eyes, in full panic, visible.<\/div>\n<div>____________________________________________________________<\/div>\n<h3><b>BUGSYDER: The Crazy Hero<\/b><\/h3>\n<div><i>Thai<\/i><\/div>\n<div><i>92 min<\/i><\/div>\n<div><i>Theppanom Piriyaworakul<\/i><\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>The humour, the anarchy, the glorious fun\u2014its tagline says it all: \u201cOf the Psycho Who Steals Underwear\u201d. Total absurdity right off the bat, as a suited pervert harassing stewardesses in a white aeroplane suddenly finds himself dropped among buffaloes in a field in Isan. Iconic Isan farang movie star Martin Wheeler is the village headman who can\u2019t live without inhaling his wife\u2019s cleavage. Despite the cartoonish, sped-up and silly veneer, it has strong resonance, as in the psycho freak-out scene amidst ancient ruins. Plus the cast of great faces, the acting, the camera placement and editing in this shoestring movie outshine most big budget Thai films.<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>____________________________________________________________<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3><b>Chainsaws Were Singing<\/b><\/h3>\n<div><i>Estonia<\/i><\/div>\n<div><i>117 min<\/i><\/div>\n<div><i>Sander Maran<\/i><\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>The Texas Chainsaw Massacre has spawned many exotic offspring, but this has got to be one of the best, plus it\u2019s a musical. The shift from dialogue to verse to song is faultlessly done. The humour is black, brutal and disgusting; the 2 shitty cops are priceless. The lingering question: to a cannibal, does hippie meat really taste of weed?<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>____________________________________________________________<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3><b>Dead White &amp; Blue<\/b><\/h3>\n<div><i>US<\/i><\/div>\n<div><i>124 min<\/i><\/div>\n<div><i>Mike Davis<\/i><\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>This sublimely inventive satire of propaganda film starts with black boys watching a KKK recruitment ad (\u201cNo more white sheets, the New Klan in active wear with style and technology..\u201d) and blooms into a military plan to use a Sioux sacred ceremony to shrink a whole army to battle the KKK inside a dead black man\u2019s body. Much of it is freely-dubbed old video tape footage, a pseudo-doc a la Pink Flamingo with deadpan dialogue and 1970\u2019s clothes.<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>____________________________________________________________<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3><b>Duck Rabbit<\/b><\/h3>\n<div><i>US<\/i><\/div>\n<div><i>116 min<\/i><\/div>\n<div><i>Michael Lee<\/i><\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>After drinking psychedelic tea, 3 women take forever to deliver a prop sofa to the village playhouse, ruled by a pompous wannabe Shakespearean.

Plots, subplots, twists and turns; the English subtitles are too quick, but we don\u2019t care as we take in the intensity\u2014the brutality, the insanity, the tyranny. The songs are wonderful, especially the monstrous Pigeon Dance Man\u2019s macabre pre-rape signature tune.<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>____________________________________________________________<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3><b>Next<\/b><\/h3>\n<div><i>US<\/i><\/div>\n<div><i>98 min<\/i><\/div>\n<div><i>Brad Cook<\/i><\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>The brainworm guy finds a camera at the bus stop and with his fat woman friend (lovely chemistry; great hotdog eating scene) decide to save people by filming them, thereby capturing their pain which they bless and bury in the ground along with the memory card.
