    Safety Not Guaranteed, Snow Cake (Sigourney Weaver) and Dirty Filthy Love. Also The Look Out.

    I LOOOOOOOOOOOVED Safety Not Guaranteed.
  • Downloading Nancy- Be warned it is really dark and depressing but I looooved it.
    The Vicious Kind
    Wrecked
    Tuesday, after Christmas- It's a foreign film and its definitely a chick flick. It's about adultery.
    Aftershock- another foreign film. Heartbreaking!

    Sara's Key - Very good movie set in modern day with flashbacks to the Holocaust.

    Flowers of War- starring Christian Bale

    Just watched it a few nights ago and it is very intense. A sad movie, but it brings to light the atrocities of the Japanese occupation of Nanking in 1939. Warning it is disturbing though.

    Christain Bale is amazing as usual in it though.

    Nobel Son....it has Alan Rickman in it(whom I love). It's a really good movie, but sorta messed up.

    V/H/S Horror, found footage...........super effed up and weird.

    Forget Me Not

    Wolf Town

    Sand Sharks

    Like I said before....my definition of a gem is obviously something that isn't necessarily good(except Nobel Son, that is good in my opinion), but I love to laugh at crap horror. :)

    The Gamers: Dorkness Rising

    It's an awesome movie... especially if you are into role playing games.

    If you liked those, might I suggest "Rare Exports" as well?

    Kill 'Em All was a decent (mostly) mindless kung-fu movie. Kind of a sad ending.

    Will definitely be watching some of these, I've run out of good stuff on netflix... other than my third round through Firefly/Serenity.

    I saw that movie in theaters and was a blubbering mess. Fantastic movie.

    Check out Meeting Evil... Very odd, interesting, and motivating in a way...

    I stumbled across that and I was like OMG! Glad I caught it! :smile:

    "The Killer Inside Me" - Casey Affleck is VERY underrated IMO!

    Rid of Me (The first 30 mins are super uncomfortable to watch but stick with it)

    Lars and the Real Girl (Amazingly brilliant)

    Rubber (It's bizarre and a great watch!)

    Sassy Pants (Pretty good lots of familiar faces in the cast including Haley Joel Osment who is not anything like my childhood crush anymore LOL)

    and also as other have said

    Safety Not Guaranteed

    "Without Limits"

    Tom Cruise produced it and wanted to star in it, but in 1998 at the age of 36, it was determined that he was too old to realistically portray a college student.

    "Another Earth". It's definitely worth a watch....It's very moving. I literally gasped as I was watching. Never had a movie effect me in such a way. It is a quiet movie, but it is in no way boring. It's a bit of science-fiction, but it is more drama than anything. At first I was skeptical, especially since the main character Rhoda dresses kind of thug-ish, but that quickly became a non issue as you become drawn into the story.

    Lightning Bug with Laura Prepon. Not sure if it's on Netflix, though. I got it on Blockbuster, but I think they were bought by Netflix. Funny and sad, and the deleted scenes are hilarious.
