I love movies.  One of my favorite kinds of movies are those hidden gems that nobody seems to know about.

So I shall begin...

Streets of Fire
" It's just that Depeche Mode were a bunch of optimistic loveburgers."
- TGRR, shaming himself forever, 7/8/2017

"Billy, when I say that ethics is our number one priority and safety is also our number one priority, you should take that to mean exactly what I said. Also quality. That's our number one priority as well. Don't look at me that way, you're in the corporate world now and this is how it works."

Cemetary Man
Full Movie Here


Francesco Dellamorte (Rupert Everett) is a cemetery caretaker in a small Italian town.  Occasionally, however, the dead (called Returners) come back seven days after they're buried and the only way to send them back is via a headshot.

Things tend to take a turn when "She" comes along and Dellamorte becomes entangled in Love, Death and Existential Angst.  This is just the beginning as the movie gets increasingly more and more fucked up.

Back before this movie was available on youtube or even DVD for that matter, I hunted through the internet and found a VHS of this movie.  It was a happy day when it arrived.

Cast a Deadly Spell
Full Movie Here


I love this movie.  And I forgot all about it until today. In the pic above you can see the USA today's review, "Imagine Who Framed Roger Rabbit? with witches and zombies instead of toons." That's pretty damn accurate.  Harry Philip Lovecraft (Fred Ward) is a detective in a world where basically everyone uses magic.  It includes many references to H.P. Lovecraft. It's very tongue-in-cheek.  It's very much Elmore Leonard meets HP Lovecraft with a side dish of goof.

Fuck yes. I love both of those,  Bu☆ns.

Streets of Fire also looks cool as hell.

Time Bandits belongs on here. Probably Better Off Dead, & The Last Starfighter, both of which inspired me to get into animation & computer 3d animation.

Oh definitely Time  Bandits and The Last Starfighter.  Now I've seen Better Off Dead on the shelves but never actually watched it...i'll be adding that to my queue.

The Apple.

What if someone tried to film an homage to "Paradise Lost" in the 70s, but was too messed up on mushrooms and peyote to achieve anything resembling coherence.

Lesson Faust
Sample Here


Jan Svankmajer's interpretation of the classic story of a man selling his soul to the devil.  It's very good and combines puppetry with stop motion animation in a very VERY artistic manner.  Check out the sample to just get a very small hint of it's insanity.  Also Brotep recommended it to me a couple years ago and it's due for a re-watch.

I couldn't find it online but if anyone is interested send me a PM and I'll dropbox it or put it on my ftp server or something.

Quote from: WikipediaThe Apple (a.k.a. Star Rock) is a 1979 musical science fiction film starring Catherine Mary Stewart and directed by Menahem Golan. It is a discoesque rock opera-styled feature, set in a futuristic 1994, dealing with themes of conformity versus rebellion and infused with Biblical allegories (namely the tale of Adam and Eve).
:lulz: okay now that just ridiculous.

Death to Smoochy is one of my favorite dark comedies despite its abysmal reputation. Every actor in it is enjoying that hell out of their roles

Seconded.

Yes, and they're awesome.
