This **** gave me nightmares.

[QUOTE="YankeesFanboy, post: 7436128, member: 46917"]The Blob remake is underrated. Scared the piss out of me when I was a kid. :lol

That **** too.

Yup, don't remember most of them at all.

Always liked Year One. One of Jack Blacks better movies.

Hadn't watched it since I was a kid, the crites used to scare the crap out of me.

Same here.

I'm going to reiterate Lucky # Slevin and Secondhand Lions. Watched both over the holiday, and they're both really great. I'd put Slevin on the same level as The Usual Suspects ... and Secondhand is about 10-times more badass than you'd expect from a movie with Haley Joel Osment.

I saw this movie recently on TV called the Magic Christian with Peter Sellers & Ringo Starr. It was a bit bonkers but kind of stuck in my head. Peter Sellers was Ringo's dad in it I think?

I didn't think anyone on here would ever post about that movie. It is bonkers and yes Sellers plays his dad.

Is The Fly II underrated? I rather liked it.

27 percent at Rotten Tomatoes? Lord, have mercy.

Don't know. I'd have to watch it again. It's probably because the first one is so good.

I think this movie is underrated, even though many people don't like it.​

I hated that one. All that bouncing around that he did got old quick.

Well fair enough if you didn't like it, but that alone isn't exactly a strong argument to damn the whole film over.

Fly 2 was awesome

 

[Adolfo]

Almost Famous. I loved it. Brought back some awesome memories.

But that's what couch critics usually do

 

[rushmore223]

Not sure it's necessarily my favorite, but Clockers is an excellent drama that got very little attention from critics or audiences, definitely worth watching if you havent seen it.

 

[YankeesFanboy]

Requiem for a Dream, because it's at 8.4/10 on IMDb and 78 percent at Rotten Tomatoes.

I rented it, saw it once, own the DVD but have yet to watch it again. It's that depressing/powerful/memorable.

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

^ I only just bought that recently - excellent film.

Same - I watched it once when it first came out & hadn't seen it since, but some of the themes & visuals always stuck with me.

I love Jennifer Connelly in this.

 

[Rambler]

I really need to see Requiem. Its been on my long list of movies I need to watch.

While I disagree with the "underrated" claim, the second claim is a truthism.

Redbelt.

One of my all time favourite films with Chiwetel Ejiofor giving a magnificent performance as one of the true great movie nice guys in Mike Terry in this beautifully played out martial arts drama. This is, for me, a criminally underrated film.

i think it's the best Terry Gilliam film. it's perfect.
