so...someone recommended this movie that's currently on the flix channel (and will be on flix west at 1AM EST) called girl on a motorcycle. it was made in 1968, and i'll be honest...i'm not really paying attention to the plot a whole lot.
but, from what i can gather this girl is unhappy in her marriage, and so she's driving on a motorcycle trying to find this guy she really loves. and while she's driving she flashes back to past events such as meeting the man she really loves and various other things.

now, the reason i'm posting is because, i found it quite peculiar that in one scene she's sorting through different nighties to wear talking about sleeping with someone(i BELIEVE that it's the guy that she's supposed to marry but doesnt love), and then finally she's lying in bed (and again, i wasnt paying attention TOO much) and she's telling herself that she doesnt want to go through with it. (sleeping with the guy). well, the guy opens the door and she proceeds to roll over, pretending to sleep as he looks her over. he is convinced that she's sleeping and so he leaves.
she falls asleep and she has a dream that the guy comes back and rapes her. but for whatever reason the dream sequence is filmed in shades of red, along with short flashes of different bright colors (she dreams in color, she dreams in red)

anyway, there's probably no connection, but i just found it pretty weird...

anyone ever see this movie?

That sounds pretty messed up. I guess Pearl Jam based their song off that movie scene.

I've never seen the movie, but there's a Rob Zombie song by the same name, and I'll bet that's where the title came from.
