    Return to Oz.

    Dorothy goes back to Oz, and it's all beat up and run-down.

    Kinda creepy to watch as a kid. But I always enjoyed it.

    Saw it at the movies. It gave me nightmares for days! (especially the "wheelers")

    Satans little helper!
    YES. YES YES YES. OMG I havent laughed so hard at a horror since...Dead Snow maybe
    Lucky Number Sleven - one of the BEST movies EVER but no one ever knows about it, which is weird b/c it has Bruce Willis and Morgan Freeman in it. It's a total mind job movie like Fight Club. Love it!
    I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU.

    Kansas City Shuffle!



    AS for meeee....
    Six String Samurai!
    I adooooore this movie. Fallout New Vegas referenced it and I got so excited I started screaming.

    Erik the Viking with Tim Robbins by Terry Jones of Monty Python fame.

    Mallrats. Everyone gushed about Chasing Amy, but I just wanted to slap everyone. Mallrats was full-blown hysterical.

    The Rutles. A precursor to Spinal Tap, but Beatles-ish instead of metal.

    Love LOVE Mallrats. It's totally hilarious

    Jack Frost & Jack Frost 2 - return of the mutant killer snowman.

    Jeffery - Steven Webber, Michael T. Wiess, Patrick Stewart... FUNNY!! and sometimes more than a little poiniant.

    Get Real - brit flick about coming out. love this movie!

    Ten Inch Hero - it's so pretty

    i could go on and on. i watch a lot of film festival films and a lot of crappy awesome horror. but these are the top of the list.

    Eraserhead

    ERASERHEAD!!!!! That movie was so beyond bizarre.


    Some of my faves are:

    What About Bob? - Bill Murray

    Defending Your Life - Albert Brooks & Meryl Streep


    1 from my childhood - We're Back!
    Nobody ever remembers it and everyone looks at me like I'm crazy when I tell them what it was about lol

    Defending Your Life was the first one to pop into my head!

    Clue. Freaking love it and most people are like "It's a movie?".

    And Repo Man.

    Oh yes! The first time I saw it was on TV and it was the dubbed version with all the swearing dubbed into other words.You stupid "Melon Farmers"!!! Made me laugh so hard as a teenager. :laugh:

    The other one I love that noone seems to have heard of is Amateur by Hal Hartley; funny, smart, tragic, great soundtrack. I had it on VHS, which has long since gone and can't get a copy for love nor money in the UK :cry:

    Keep hoping it will be on TV so I can at least record it.

    THE POINT!!!!

    OH, YES!
    music by Harry Nilssen

    GO to the pointless forrest if you have NOT seen this movie.........and you can watch it with the kids :)

    Some of my faves:

    Pollock - Ed Harris (one of the best and least recognized actors in the universe!) A bit of the life story of artist, Jackson Pollock
    Glengarry Glen Ross - Al Pacino, Kevin Spacey (another under-rated actor), Ed Harris (I'll watch anything he's in ;)
    What Dreams May Come - Robin Williams, Annabella Sciorra. One of the best movies I've ever seen depicting heaven and hell in terms that truly make sense. A serious, wonderful role by Robin.

    Catfish. Randomly watched it myself the other day and it is awesome, nobody else has heard of it though. in fact they think it is actually about catfish (it isn't) - maybe why nobody has seen it :grumble:
