I think if you were to describe the Budbrain Megademo to someone who had never seen it, you would sound a bit deranged: "there's this constipated man who flies off the toilet and these beatboxing baby chicks, and then there's this multi-part film about an intruder...?" You'd invariably trail off, but that doesn't detract from how rad it is. My older brother and I would watch it together and it was crucial he was there, because he had to turn off the Amiga before the dick jokes appeared.
I was six when I first saw Budbrain and I immediately fell in love with the KAOS sequence. It's like your own private nightclub, where the Dr Baker mashes with Technotronic and Coldcut, synthy stabs are synchronised with a seemingly infinite array of flashing images: a punk baby and a foot-tapping Elvis. It's cool in the most confident sense of the word... and although it may be difficult to faithfully describe it, anyone who knows it has the tendency to agree.
