I don't even know

"Junk Head" is a tough movie to describe because it isn't really a movie. It's less a story and more a deep dive into the director's subconscious where weird and disturbing things lurk.

In this sense the film feels a bit like "Eraserhead" in that it's the decidedly odd product of one man's imagination while it also feel reminiscent of "Brazil" - which you could describe in the same terms.

The whole movie takes place in this Escher like subterranean maze of voids, passageways and arching bridges. The inhabitants haven't seen the light of day for many generations to the extent that they are little more than cave fish with legs. At the same time isolation has turned them almost cult-like; not that any of this is explained.

Instead the film is best enjoyed for its dedicated ambition, imaginative delights and conjuring up of a troglodytic realm far removed from us in space and time.

You may well emerge from the darkened cinema blinking and confused but you won't forget that you've experienced something even if you can't quite put your finger on what that something was.

The criteria of happiness changes depending on where you live.

The ending credits indicates "everything is made by me". I love it!

It took 7 years the director to make this stop-motion animation which he studied on his own. It has fabulous quality and dark joking. If anyone laughes this passion as madness, I'll give him the finger.

One of favourite things is "Kunoko" grows out of some weird organic matter which is cultivated artificially, it's similar to mushroom but isn't. I really liked the grotesque design of that plantation's staff. Another one is a driver of elevator like a motorcycle gang.

The criteria of happiness changes depending on where you live. "Bad luck" for you can be an envy thing for someone in other places and situation.

I was confused at the early stages when I watched it while drinking hot chocolate. Be careful about it.
