The Brotherhood of The Wolf. Foreign film with great fight sequences about a town filled with “wolf creature” worshipping fanatics. When the King sends a group to investigate the murders going on, they find tons of witch craft, gypsies and a giant wolf beast.
Miami blues. Came out in the late 80’s,starring Alec Bladwin. Super badass movie. 11:14 was pretty good. To whoever mentioned Gummo, I went to school with a kid who was one of the main characters. That movie is all kinds of fucked up.

The special effects were decent as well.[/quote]
I also liked the movie. Primarily because of Vincent Cassel (That’s the lucky bastard that is married to Monica Bellucci).
Le Rivières pourpres (The Crimson Rivers) and especially La Haine (Hate) are also awesome movies starring Vincent Cassel.

Yes X, that was a pretty damn good movie. I really liked the main characters side kick the Native American guy. He was a fearless bad ass character. The main guy was cool to.

That guy was an awesome actor and fighter (assuming he actually did most of that himself…there were few cut aways during the sequences). I had never seen him in anything before that or since.
is the name of the guy in The Brotherhood Of The Wolf who plays Mani (great martial arts scenes)
He now hosts Iron Chef America, IIRC
Also Last Man Standing w/Bruce Willis, The Quick & The Dead was decent (Sharon Stone at her apex of hotness next to her role in the Specialist)
& another nomination is the recent movie Derailed, which had a pretty good cast working it - Vincent Cassel as mentioned above, Jennifer Aniston, Clive Owen, Xzibit & RZA

John Carpenter’s The Thing
Absolute bomb at the box office and excoriated by the critics, but one of the best sci-fi/horror pieces ever. Even after all these years.[/quote]
That movie deserves a sequel even though I know they could never do it right.
I can’t believe it got bad reviews when it first came out. That was before I knew what a movie was, but after seeing it years later, especially on DVD, it is one of my all time favorite horror movies.

It’s good, but Football Factory is a more accurate representation of the dynamic of football firms. Plus, not matter how many times I watch GSH, I have a hard time believing Frodo Baggins is a badass.
Anybody else see Kiss Kiss Bang Bang? The dialogue between Robert Downey Jr. and Val Kilmer (who needs more work!) is hysterical.
District B13 was a cool French flick with lots of parkour and ass kicking.

It was lambasted as a mindless over the top gore fest that only the lowest level of moviegoer would enjoy. That flick was brilliant and broke all kinds of new ground in special effects not to mention the thoroughly butt puckering claustrophobic tension it created. It probably is too late for an effective sequel. Russel is thirty years older and it would have to take up where the first one ended in my view.
Kentucky Fried Movie for the comedy department. It boggles my mind that almost no one has seen this movie and it’s one of the greatest comedies ever made.
