Best Party Depicted In A Film?

[Part 2]

The 2 parties on Superbad looked like fun.

 

[Orang Utan]

Is it in the flat? I really don't remember it?

Yeah - when they get spiked and they see what's in the suitcase

 

[Dhimmi]

Dobermann, it's all going well until the cops turn up.

[Madusa]

Benny's leaving party in City of God.

Spoiler: LOL

- Well, apart from the bit when he gets shot.

 

[boohoo]

Morvern Caller - film with Samantha Morten in...

 

[sojourner]

Abigail's Party

Yes!!

 

[Orang Utan]

This thread was prompted by someone on another forum who mentione Carlito's Way - the party Sean Penn throws

 

[sojourner]

You never see the party in that though

It was MEANT to be funny

sigh

 

[Yetman]

The shunting party at the end of Society

 

[May Kasahara]

The toga party in Animal House!

 

[Crispy]

The shunting party at the end of Society

Is that the movie where it turns out the upper classes are actually weird mutant aliens?

Not aliens, just a different strain of humans, I think. It weirded me out when their faces merge into the person they're eating.

I'll 2nd the Human Traffic party sequence, it just looks like the most buzzin after party ever. Also defo Breakfast at Tiffany's , the wild abandon of the flat party is great.

Of more obscure note was the rave seen in Pusher which involves some strange underground bunker in the midst of a huge warehouse party.

In terms of getting it spot on you'd be hard to beat this San Francisco effort Groove from 2000. Even features a cameo by John Digweed. It all feels a bit different to the UK experience but in terms of DJs & people of their tits on E it's spot on.

They dont eat each other, they just shunt into each other. Sometimes they absorb people totally, but not their own kind.

Good party though init? If you like shunting that is

 

[Strumpet]

sigh

SOMEONE got it.

 

[T & P]

Not sure it qualifies but you could do worse than being at that bar off From Dusk Till Dawn

At least up to the point when everyone turns blood sucker

 

[Griff]

Yep, the music, the dance, the atmosphere.

 

[Maurice Picarda]

No-one's said Diner du Cons or Triumph of the Will yet. That's probably a good thing.

 

[Orang Utan]

Diner De Cons is ace!

How about Le Grande Bouffe or Salo?

 

[zoltan]

The Bolshevik party in " reds"

erm.....



How about the party in "One flew over the cuckoos nest" where Jack gets the looneys ripped & introduces them to girls ?

ver sad.

 

[skyscraper101]

The club scene in the '51st State'
The party in Zion (Matrix Reloaded)
The street party scene in 'Strange Days' (with Skunk Anansie )
The club scene in 'Vanilla Sky' (Leftfield - Afrika Shox on the decks)
The club scene in 'Its All Gone Pete Tong' where Frankie Wilde is DJing
The house party in 'Human Traffic' - already mentioned
The club in 'The Matrix' (where Neo meets Trinity - Rob Zombie mixes into Prodigy)
The club scene in 'GO' - already mentioned

 

[Donna Ferentes]

Masque of the Red Death?

 

[Orang Utan]

The party in Zion (Matrix Reloaded)

Fuck off

 

[corporate whore]

Babel - when the deaf kids go clubbing.

 

[skyscraper101]

How could I forget...

Back To The Future - The Enchantment Under The Sea Dance, where Marty McFly goes apeshit playing Jonny B Goode. Quality

 

[Treebeak]

if we're doing club scenes... the first scene in Blade in the meat factory, where everyones dancing to Bass in the Place London and then the sprinklers start spraying blood and the vampires go crazy....

I always think this film makes being a vampire look

 

[skyscraper101]

Fuck off

Feck off yerself. They're playing Zion by Fluke and the bass is awesome

 

[upsidedownwalrus]

Fuck off

Yes, self indulgent shite wasn't it.

I would include:

Human Traffic - House party
Weird science - house party (just for silliness)
donnie darko - house party (the bit where they walk out of the bedroom holding hands with Love Will Tear Us Apart playing is just superb)
edited to add - ooh yes how could i forget Blade. The nearest thing to capturing the feel of a London squat party i've seen in a film, and it was a hollywood action film

I thought they were dancing to Pump Panel's remix of Confusion?

 

[thursdog]

Not a film but the clubbing episode of Spaced is the best depiction of clubbing I've seen.

100% agree and funny as fuck too
