Heres a few:

UHF - Wierd movie with Wierd Al... lots of funny little skits and stuff...
Session 9 - Crazy kinda scary movie about guys cleaning asbestos out of an old insane asylum... it gets nuts


I know there are more... just cant think right now...

All these rigs go crazy on this little truck stop. One of Stephen King's better movies IMHO.

Yea tremors was good but the best is about this guy that is making his own movie named Coven, all though i still havent seen Coven i saw the documentry about the redneck trailer trash that madde it, i think the name of it was The American Dream or something liek that, it is funny and sad at the same time!

If you know where i could find a place to download the movie Coven, let me know

eXistenZ....lotsa people ragged it as a cheap Matrix rip...I quite enjoyed it.

Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels - not sure how well known it is around the world, not too well known over here. Brilliant movie.

O - modern retelling of Othello. Enjoyed it.

All I can think of right now..

*edit* Nice Incubus quote there Joey :D

I thought it was pretty good... that old guy was pretty convincing as a psycho...

It was pretty insane when the old man pulled the pick out that guys eye... :p

My roommate just brought home another good one...

Its called Formula 51 with Samuel L Jackson

He plays a chemist who supposedly makes some new drug and it gets all crazy when hes trying to find a buyer... Not a great movie, but its fun to watch...

Requiem for a Dream - this movie should be required for teens at risk of doing drugs ;)

Pi - just plain trippy

Artisan usually makes decent films, except Blair Witch Project, but nobodys perfect

Oh and for Matrix ripoffs..... see Equilibrium, came out a few months ago, it sucks because the plot has too many loopholes (im a nitpicker) but the fighting seens are soooo complex, i think theyre better than those of the Matrix.

It's one of the more well known lesser well known movies, but you guys definitely need to see Memento. This is such a creative movie with excellent cinematography and story line.

Another excellent film, although it can be quite depressing at times :(

I'll give my vote to Mallrats, I like to call it, ass-humour. :hehehe:
