The Bizarre Ones

1968, dir. Ron Sullivan


“The title tells the story!”

Diedre, a man-hating she-devil, picks up a hitchhiker and takes him to an isolated farmhouse populated by a group of sadists who are in the middle of building some kind of sex machine. They welcome Deidre to the party, but when she makes the mistake of moving in on one of their female submissives, they tie her to the roof of her car and leave her to the vengeful whims of the hitchhiker she left inconveniently left waiting in misery.

Surely the only film to ever feature a scene of torture by licorice, Ron Sullivan’s The Bizarre Ones is a, well, bizarre mix of roughie thrills and New York underground weirdness featuring appearances by Warhol superstars Taylor Mead (Lonesome Cowboys) and Louis Waldon (Andy Warhol’s Flesh).
