Programmer's Pick

Stick It in Your Ear takes you deep into the fractured psyche of a Vietnam vet, with experimental style, no credits, and a heady mix of softcore surrealism and bloodshed. If your cinematic tastes run toward dream logic, nudity, and references from John Wayne to Che Guevara, this cult oddity delivers a sleazy, disorienting ride.
