Inlight of a recent chatbox discussion I thought id throw this up. Im not talkin major flicks, im talkin stuff that was really good that some might not have seen and or the youngins havent heard of.

"Blue Velvet"
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090756/
A lil on the disturbing side but so are most of my picks

"Millers Crossing"
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0100150/
IMO one of if not the best gangster movies

"Barton Fink"
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0101410/
This one takes a brain to watch, might not enjoy if looking for excitement, but its the cohen bros. can't go wrong, well i guess you can a couple times

"Raising Arizona"
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093822/
Incredible dark comedy, lil more poppular than the rest

"Wild at Heart"
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0100935/
Back when Nicolas Cage was still cool

"Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me"
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105665/
Followed in my opinion TV's best show ever

"Time Bandits"
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0081633/
This one might not be for everyone, but lil people traveling thru time is worth the list.

"Kalifornia"
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107302/
The reason behind this thread, Brad Pitt's best work, I thought most knew of this flic, but as I said its what gave me the idea

"The Hidden"
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093185/
If you can get past the 80's soundtrack you will be missing the whole point of the movie. Allien takin over bodies rockin to 80's death metal FTW

"Naked Lunch"
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0102511/
WARNING Typewriter Sex!!

"Trainspotting"
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0117951/
Excessive Heroin use and hard to understand Europeans, but well worth the watch

"Requiem for a Dream"
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0180093/
WARNING this will stick with you for days, very distrubing but brilliant. I warned you

"Memento"
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0209144/
Worth watching to try and figure out, very clever movie

"Menace II Society"
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107554/
With this crowd I am sure most have seen this, but if your not into the rap seen you may not have, best GANGster movie IMO

I got tons more when i think of em i'll post em. Or this thing might die quicker than I do. Enjoy
