Of course u have all the classics, so i'll take the liberty to not post my best movies, but post movies i like a lot and other people (critics) didn't like or other people might not have seen. Or something like that.
Magnolia Irréversible Abre Los Ojos Dogville Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas Natural Born Killers The Search for the Holy Grail Pi The Big Blue Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and Her Lover Festen The Big Lebowski Overrated (films everybody else liked...exept for me): Prizzi's Honor Fargo LOTR: The Fellowship Mulholland Drive A.I. "It's better 2 B hated 4 what U R than 2 B loved 4 what U R not."

There are many favorites...I'll just list "Tombstone."
The worst movie of all time is easily "The Puma Man." Fear is the mind-killer. | |

"Slam" -- best movie I've seen in quite some time. Caught it last night on the IFC. Every young Black man should see this movie.
Worst -- "Vanilla Sky", Really stupid, really. Who is SweeTea? | |

Thank god you didn't say "David Lynch" in the bad category... I would have had to hate you. Massacre is spelled "massacre." You lost credibility with "Rave Into the Year 2000" in the "best" list. :O SUPERJOINT RITUAL - http://www.superjointritual.com

The only one I even remotely like is Blue Velvet and that is just because Dennis Hopper is a fruitcake. Mulholland was awful! Twin Peaks yuk! i really hate his movies. he is just a Kubrick wannabe.  did i just say that?
the Rave was a joke. forgot the "I'm here to chew bubblegum and kick ass, and I'm all out of bubblegum"

David Lynch is the greatest surrealist filmmaker ever! Bunuel and Dali did a good job with "Un Chien Andalou," but Lynch has a real purpose with his work... I also liked "That Obscure Object of Desire" by Bunuel, but I like Lynch better. Let's face it, you just don't like surrealist films. 
You should check out "Un Chien Andalou" when you get a chance and tell me what you think of it. SUPERJOINT RITUAL - http://www.superjointritual.com

You should check out "Un Chien Andalou" when you get a chance and tell me what you think of it. actually, you should see the cremaster cycle. lynch has pretty much been dethroned. Power tends to corrupt; absolute power corrupts absolutely. - Lord Acton | |

You should check out "Un Chien Andalou" when you get a chance and tell me what you think of it. I guess not. I cant stand his films. I just dont "get it". havent seen elephant man or straight story but Lost Highway was just as bad. I am actually a B Movie freak. I love Troma films and John Waters. Im big into horror also. My favorites are things like The Omen, Amityville Horror, The Changeling, etc. I cant stand modern horror though. Gotta go with the classics.
