Naked Lunch is a movie you'll either enjoy or hate. I like it, my wife loathes it.

 

[rhatsaruck]

One of the best sports movies you've never seen

Threshold. It stars Mare Winningham, Donald Sutherland and Jeff Goldblum. Great movie about a heart replacement.

I've never seen this (and it doesn't seem to be available on DVD), but if you want to see a movie about heart surgery I highly recommend Something the Lord Made.

It's not on DVD. VHS copies can be found on Amazon. I suppose that's the obscure part. If you read the reviews, you'll see how good Threshold was. A bit ahead of its time, too.

I'll take a look at Something the Lord Made. Thanks.

plan 9 from outer space FTW!

 

[meltdown75]

it's not that obscure but i really enjoyed the made-for-TV version of Stephen King's IT.

 

[MasterAndCommander]

Strange Brew

 

[dr150]

Dune (underrated but great if you have the patience to last the long time length)

Krull (very good 80's sci-fi)

Flash Gordon (80's cheese but very entertaining)

9 Queens (AWESOME, AWESOME con movie!!)

Quick Change (fun Bill Murray movie)


There's many more 80's movies that many young people are missing out on. Too many to list....

How was district b13? I saw this trailer yesterday on xbmc; i should've guessed it had already been released in europe. i guess it's time to hit up my favorite torrent site.

my fav obscure movie is

lock, stock and two smoking barrels.

My favorite would have to be Avalon. A Japanese Sci-Fi movie with Polish actors, directed by the person who made Ghost in the Shell.

I have always liked Gotcha! for some reason. Just one of those silly 80's movies that no one seems to know about.....but that have been running it lately on one of the HBO channels late at night.

I loved that movie.

Muppets Treasure Island would be way up there.

 

[HombrePequeno]

I would have to say Oldboy, Zatoichi, and of course Orgazmo. Maybe throw in a little Cannibal! The Musical in there too.

Duma - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0361715/ (i want a cheetah now)
High Road To China - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0085678/ (Tom Selleck playing a drunkard hehe)

Props to the people! for:
Metropolis
Memphis Belle
Das Boot!
The Fisher King

High Strung...I have never laughed so hard in my entire life as when I first saw this movie. It is just a guy that sits in his apartment and complains about life, and Jim Carrey plays death. Sadly, it isn't available on dvd.

Other great ones are: Cloak and Dagger, Crossroads (the Ralph Maccio one from 1986), Rad, and Bad.

If you want to see a truly awful film that is semi obscure, you can also watch the Garbage Pail Kids Movie...

Man Bites Dog Awesome movie about a serial killer.
Withnail and II just love it. Not a scene that's not quotable.

Das Experiment aka The Experiment

Based on the true story.
