What’s the weirdest movie you’ve ever watched?

The weirdest movie I have watched by far is the Star Wars Holiday Special. I doubt I will ever put myself through the torture that is that movie again.
In it, Chewbacca is supposed to be visiting his mother Malla (so far so good), his father Itchy (wait, what?), and his son Lumpy (how is this worse?). The holiday is Life Day, and they all give each other presents. One of the presents is a virtual reality set that is very suggestive, borderline porn even, for Itchy.
What’s even worse is the minutes worth of dialogue from the Wookies in their language with no subtitles at all. Just grunting and roaring.
There are plenty of other parts that were terrible. One character wears blackface for a cooking show. There is a whole cartoon in the middle. The whole thing was Wookies doing bizarre yet still somehow boring stuff.
100% would NOT recommend.
