Or so it seems when you speak to other people.

I’ll start
Five Days One Summer.

Polishing Aluminium : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2k5YrHzmvg

A Film With Me In It starring Dylan Moran. Quality dark Irish comedy.

Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid
Wraith
And one I’ve never been able to remember the title of, or track down, I recall there being a bunch of teenagers, in America during what looked like the 20’s-30’s, driving around in original Model-T Fords, etc, but with Hotrod flames on, then right at the end a jet fighter roars overhead.
It was a very odd little fillum.
There was a TV series when I was a kid, must have been ’62-63-ish, set in Australia, I think, and one scene has always stuck with me, a sudden close-up of a skull on a ledge in a cave, but the cranium was extended up and sort of pointed, a bit like an alien ‘grey’. I’ve hunted through the Internet and IMDB, but I can’t find anything at all that seems close, and I’m damned sure I didn’t imagine it!

Plunkett and Macleane. Johnny Lee Miller and Robert Carlyle as Highwaymen. Largely unheard-of slice of brilliance.

Series 7: The Contenders. Sort of Big Brother meets Battle Royale, most entertaining.

I’ve seen Series 7. S’good.

Dobermann, http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118996/?ref_=nv_sr_1
Delicatessan, bit more well know bust still not many seem to have seen it. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0101700/?ref_=nv_sr_1
“Borsalino” and “Borsalino and Co.” http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0071241/

I had a phase of watching French films after seeing the original Nikita, those 4 were the very good highlights.

Run Lola run, the only German film I have really enjoyed, although again fairly well known most people still haven’t seen it. It has the advantage of staring the delightful Franka Potente. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0130827/?ref_=tt_rec_tti

Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid and Plunkett and Macleane, were/are pretty well known films.

Big Tits Zombie

+1 Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid and Plunkett and Macleane, were/are pretty well known films.

I saw a film once named after a day of the week IIRC (can’t remember which) where the plot centred around a heist of some sort and a man being tied to chair in his house and forced to have sex with the female baddie. Please help ‘casue it was quite good in a sort of Lock Stock/Tarintino/Layer Cake style. Set in America somewhere.

+1 for plunkett.

Short film on Ch4 years ago, mockumentary about dog fighting, set on a dodgy estate.
Black and white iirc.
Brilliant twist at the end.

Anyone else?

Brookside ?

3 of my favourite films are on this list – I don’t know anyone who has seen them

The Castle – http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118826/
The way way back – http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1727388/
Zero Effect – http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120906/

I’ve seen Season 7 too. Its a great film!

How about God Bless America? A fantastic darkly funny film that seemed to slip under the radar

God bless America is excellent, most people I know have seen it maybe because I pestered them all into watching it. Directed by the bloke who made odd noises in police academy and scrooged iirc.

Another French film “Les visiteurs” there was a hollywood remake which was ok, but the original French version was superior.

I really can’t be bothered watching subtitled films these days but it didn’t use to bother me. Although I could probably still remember enough school French to get the general jist back then while now it has all slipped from my mind.

The Straight Story, a David Lynch film about an old guy who needs to travel cross America to see his dying brother, which he proceeds to do on an old John Deere ride on. it’s the slowest road trip movie you’ll see, and it’s great too.

And i thought for years that I had dreamt that film (I watched it when smashed!)

Nine Days In Summer.

Rawhead Rex. So old and unforgettable it isn’t even listed on IMDB.

Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid and Plunkett and Macleane, were/are pretty well known films.

Maybe in some circles, but nobody I know has ever heard of, or seen, DMDWP. I can’t even remember when it was last shown on telly, such a long time ago.
Possibly the best Steve Martin film, too.

Goodbye Pork Pie, a kiwi film from the 80s watched it in a coma like state when flying to New Zealand!

187 – Samuel L Jackson as a teacher in a rough school.

King Frat, biggest POS ever

Last Night – an end of the world film. Loved it, nobody I know has seen it other than the girl I went with but we haven’t spoken in years

That porno tape I made with the missus.

The one that I made of Binners sleeping.

Seen Wraith and 187.

Yamakasi is one that draws a blank with most.

Class of 1999 featuring Pam Greer as a cyborg teacher. It was ace.

Seen 5 days 1 summer.
No one I know has even heard of Big Wednesday. A fave of mine.

Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid is a great film and so is the Man with Two Brains and The Jerk. Not many people i’ve come across have seen them.

I saw a great French film a good while back about free diving called the Big Blue. A Luc Besson film with Jean Reno in it. Recommended. Also a film called the Kite Runner (a famous book apparently) which was very good but sad.

Also a good (probably not by modern day standards) Sci Fi film called Enemy Mine is another that most people don’t seem to have seen.

I also liked a film called the Final Countdown about a US Nimitz class aircraft carrier that is sent back in time to a few days before Pearl Harbour so they have the usual Time Paradox dilemma of intervening or not. Some great F14 in flight shots.

I’m sure there are many more in my distant memory. Some of the best films i’ve seen are the least well known.

Was Big Wednesday the surfing one about a day of particularly big waves? I think I saw that on IMax as the iMax crew just happened to be there making a surfing movie and they caught some great shots of big wave surfing.

Robot Jox. And Crash and Burn. WEll, only me and Guillermo del Toro

I’m the only person that enjoyed Domino, I think.

Enemy Mine! Kind of weirdly doesn’t quite use the source material enough to make the story work but simultaneously used it enough to make it a really hard sell to audiences. Your mickey mouse is one big stupid dope!

187. Flangees!

The mention of French films reminded me of

Jean De Florette starring Gerard Depardieu
And the the follow up Manon Des Sources starring the beautiful Emmanuelle Beart

Both lovely films that no one I know, apart from Mrs tenfoot, has heard of.

For a long time it s Terrorvision. The band made the film impossible to find. I think it’s on Netflix now, but it’s probably not worth watching.

Also, Christie Malry’s own double entry. The book is great, but the film changed the bits that made the book good and made it into a crappy “British film”.

I owned these, although long lost, and have read the book.

Those are pretty much all I remember from A-level French class. Those and weeks and weeks of tedious grammar and tenses.

Plunkett and Macleane

pfffftttt, you could watch it this evening on netflix, should you have absolutely nothing else in the world to do…

Dead men don’t wear plaid and big Wednesday are both fairly well known, I thought?

The straight story of one of my favourite films and was a critical hit iirc.

Anybody else seen “carnival of souls”? A strange vintage horror movie that I saw years ago and always wondered if I’d imagined before the internet came along so I could confirm it’s existence.

I feel like I must be the only person to see this, it came up on netflix. Really, really off key comedy, so off key it almost works:
