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

INDEED.:twoguns: The Castle is an Aussie comedy that comes to mind as well.

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.

Once Were Warriors...BRILLIANT movie about the underbelly of New Zealand.

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:
