Monty Python kicks ass!!

 

[jonny21]

V for vendetta

This is a must.

 

[CNizz]

Monty Python kicks ass!!

I finally convinced the wife to watch it, and by convinced I mean i had to take one for the team and watch Titanic in order to get her to watch it (which believe me, was a sacrifice), and she hated every single minute of it, she literally didnt understand a word they were saying so I turned the subtitles on and she still didnt understand a single joke, a little piece of me died inside

"The Prestige" is truly an ass-kicker of a film - must see!
"The Illusionist" is good, but NOT in the same league.

"Circle of Iron" - thought-provoking action (written by Bruce Lee & James Coburn, starring David Carridine) - *love* this movie.

Coburn is in a terrific Sergio Leone western w/ Rod Steiger, variously titled "Fistful of Dynamite" and "Duck, You Sucker!" (yeah, I know) - If you ever wanted to know how Leone got from Westerns to gangsters, you need to watch this one.

"The Haunting" - the original B&W from 1963 - my GF works in a haunted house every year, and it creeped HER out...much more than the remake did.

"Shadow of the Vampire" is incredible - helps to have already seen "Nosferatu" (old silent version), which inspired it (but it's not a copy)

For I-can't-believe-I'm-laughing-at-this hilarity, "Frankenhooker" can't be beat.

And of course, "The Man Who Fell to Earth", uncut, is the best really-weird movie I've seen.

If you like "Crouching Tiger", you've got to see "Hero" and "House of Flying Daggers".

 

[CNizz]

speaking of really weird watch "Eraserhead" for the most bizarre experience of your life, but be sure that you dont read anything about it and just rent it and watch it. I assure you you will not have seen anything like it, ever.

event horizon, sphere, hellraiser, it, monkey shines, cujo.
