15. Barbarella (1968)

January 7, 2014

I'm really glad I watched Barbarella. Not because it was a "good" movie, but because it was something really unusual. A frequently naked Jane Fonda stars as Barbarella, an astronaut and space explorer in the distant future given a task to track down and retrieve Durand Durand, the inventor of a weapon called the Positronic Ray. On her journey, Barbarella encounters a blind angel, an evil lesbian queen with an invisible dream fortress, a piano organ that pleasures people to death, and many more weird, wacky, and wonderful situations. They don't make them like this anymore and they probably never will again.
