Smell- a sense that gets overlooked

At least Kentucky Fried Movie mentioned Feel Around.

There is a movie called "Perfume: Story of a Murderer", based on a very famous book by Patrick Suskind.

joylitt Interesting- is the movie any good?

I imagine when you first set foot on an alien planet you would be assaulted by all sorts of olfactory impressions. For instance the first time I've been inside of an underground cave I sensed that strange smell unlike anything I had experienced before, I guess the rocks and the stagnant air.

dk The book is better but the movie is pretty good actually.

Smell is interesting especially considering how it is wired to the brain- also how it can trigger memories. 

I will see if Netflix has Perfume.

Ill just leave this here.....

IRaptus We can go further back than Trey and Parker.

ahhh, Touche my friend!!!  XD

Sorry- Parker/Stone.

here we go.

movies that made viewers sick

Interestingly Prometheus made it in there but not the original chestburster scene from Alien......

hahaha Avatar is in there too O_0

Try working on a pig or chicken farm.  The day the smell doesn't bother you is the day your brain has accepted the awfulness as normal.  So we do conform after a time.  Pig is the worst because they eat what we eat for the most part.  Although birds stink also.  Pheasants aren't pleasant (sounds like an 80's rap line)..  but I can imagine those egg pods wreaking.  That is a bacterial nightmare.  That's why all of the team should have had FLIR, to detect heat signatures as possible danger. And Walter should have had that installed from the factory. 

Hmmm. Been a long time since I saw Reservoir Dogs- brutal movie.  Blair Witch was creepy but not sickening.  Freaks was pretty real because the actors were the real deal (one of us)- I have it and the movie is about an hour long. The others I have either not seen or wasn’t made to feel ill. None addressed the OP of smell though. Devil’s Rejects ranks pretty high imo.

Spearfish I know the smells you mean raising those animals as a kid. I have to say in my line of work- gangrene is the worst- it cuts through everything and although difficult to describe, it is a smell that once encountered it will not be forgotten. 

hmmm alot on that list are from motion sickness (Blair Witch) or the effects of 3D (Avatar) 

not really what are are after

my bad

IRaptus That is ok- got an interesting thread going on. It will go wherever it goes unless someone locks it.

DK - "Listen...you smell something?" ;)

Something Real Good one! Can you taste that sound?

DK - Hahaha! Indeed! :)

@joylitt and @dk, that movie is really good, I loved it. Alan Rickman is in it and he was incredible as usual.

I love Alan Rickman as well Lilly (Svanya).

I bet Hans Gruber's pants emitted a loud smell at the end of Die Hard.

Awesome comments.

Ingeniero - '...emitted a loud smell...' :D :D :D

Please, don't do that! :D
