    Oh and Lord's of Dogtown with Heath Ledger about the skateboard movement in California in the 70's. I literally grew up in it.

    Added Lord's too! :)

    FRAK I forgot!

    Ladri di biciclette (Bicycle Thieves) (1948, Italy) -- it's probably already on your list. If not, it should be.

    Repulsion (1965, UK) - I think Roman Polanski's first English language film, if memory serves me correctly (and it usually does) Pay attention to the rabbit.

    Siege Of Firebase Gloria (1989) -- R. Lee Ermey. That is all

    Student Bodies. It's an Allan Smithee film, that should be all I need to say...

    It's not so bad it's good. It's so bad it's AMAZING! Totally self-referential parody movie that is damn near impossible to find.. so quotable, but no one but me and my little brother has ever seen it!

    I've never actually seen a poster for an Allan Smithee film. :-)

    Ask and ye shall receive

    I added it on Netflix, I'm psyched to see it now lol!

    I love Paper Moon, with Ryan and Tatum O'Neill.

    She really should have won the Best Actress Oscar, but they only gave her Best Supporting.

    It's Watch Instant, I love those :)

    Welcome to the Dollhouse is the most disturbingly accurate film about being a suburban child during the 1970s that I've ever seen.

    But not actually set in the 70's... Love this movie

    For the people talking about "Student Bodies", it's currently streaming via Amazon. If you have Prime like I do, it's free with that service. It's officially been added to my watch list!
