La Grande Bouffe (1973) wikipedia
*The film tells the story of four friends who gather in a villa for the weekend, with the express purpose of eating themselves to death. *
Thanks so much for the suggestions! I was worried no one would be into this "fringe" idea!!
So I have no idea if this is really fringe, I mean today it probably is, but I watched it with my friends in our "Classic Movies Night" film circle where we would once a month get together and watch one classic movie from before 2000, because like many we were no film nerds but we wanted to be able to talk about good older movies so we had to watch them :D. Anyway we had some rules that it needed at least a 7 on IMDB and it needed to be considered a classic by some standards. And this was one of those movies we saw. Probably one of the weirdest movies we watched :D
