    They just came out with it on DVD a while back and i have been meaning to rent it. I still havent seen a Michelangelo Antonioni flick but he is supposed to be really good.

    Thats also how i saw it. I also think its a tad better that City of Lost Children. It would be really nice if were to be released on DVD.

    If it still counts: Swingers. And I think it does, since it never really had a big run in the theaters. But if you've seen if you love it.

    ....but you don't mention two of my favorites, <i>Being There</i> and <i>Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb</i>?

    That is a good movie....just seems to lack appeal to a broad audience.

    <hr color=red>
    <hr color=yellow>
    <hr color=green>
    <hr color=blue>
    <hr color=indigo>
    <hr color=violet>

    There was a movie that used to be shown years ago at Midnight......<i>Rainbow Bridge</i>.

    It was lacking in the movie area, but many of the patrons were quite <i>mellow</i> and unable to recognize the quality issues.

    Boondock Saints.


    Donnie Darko is also one of my faves.

    I wouldn't call it a cult film, but everyone should see Dio's "Sacred Heart: The DVD" concert recording before they die. Dude fights a dragon onstage with a lightsaber!

    Nearly 25 posts and no mention of American Psycho? A travesty!

    Boondock Saints was also very good.

    I loved billy connellys part in the movie, it was an odd part for him but cool to see my favorite comedian in a part like that

    I figured out that I was making a long list of films by Peter Sellers, and thought I'd better stop! ;) I'm a huge fan.

    Which version of Blowup? 1966, Directed by Antonioni- Starring David Hemmings, Vanessa Redgrave, and Sarah Miles. I haven't seen the new DVD version yet, but I can't wait. I remember seeing it with my parents when it came out. Quite a shocker for the time. Excellent film. Is there another Blowup? (I can't remember)

    In a documentary on Mickey Spillane, Tarantino claimed the glowing suitcase was a direct reference to the film, KISS ME DEADLY (A Mike Hammer movie). This film featured a glowing suitcase.

    I was going to put it on my list, but it was already listed a couple of times, so I took it off. Thanks for thinking of me, though.
