'Boxing Helena'

[DoubleDown11]

Anyone here remember a movie called 'Boxing Helena'.


**********SPOILERS******************


It's about this guy who falls in love with this girl so he cuts off her arms and legs so she can never leave him. And then he cuts off her head because, she won't stop screaming.

**************END SPOILERS**********

The Misfits even did a song about it called 'Helena'
Here are the lyrics:

'Helena'
If I cut off your arms and cut off
your legs Would you still love me
anyway? If you're bound and
you're gagged, draped and
displayed Would you still love me
anyway? Cutting with the knife
blood is spilling everywhere She
will be my wife Secondary spine,
incisions must be accrute I know
just what to do My hands are
trembing I can't spare to slip up
with this knife Her beauty so
illogical The beast come gliding in
Hideous chameleon stripped down
to her skin Dance to the burning
flame Pleasure exhumes the pain
The night bursts into flames Dance
Helena Dance If I cut off your
arms and I cut off ur legs would
you still love me anyway? There's
a spot on the floor where your
limbs used to be and I close the
door on my Fantasies Why don't
you love me anyway? Helena!

Anywho... anyone seen it?

its WIERD stuff.. I haven't seen it for a while, but I remember a lot of it going wayyy over my head..

neat casting decision, though... Senor Sands needs to be in more movies.

That song is GOOD but I haven't seen the movie.

It is a weird movie alright but I liked it for it's odd elements. I never heard of that song? I wonder if it is on the soundtrack album? I will have to ask my husband who by the way has this soundtrack up for auction on ebay as we speak. Apparently you can only get this cd along with the laser disc and nowhere else. It is a limited edition transparent script 24k cd. :p

The song is on the Misfits album American Psycho, track 17. I don't know if it's on any others.

Great film-- it was actually directed by David Lynch's daughter.

Excellent Film! Interesting story, strange and entertaining. I think Jennifer Lynch deff has talent. She penned The Secret Diary of Laura Palmer!
