Blue Juice
Katherine Z-J when she was much younger, Sean Pertwee and Ewan McGregor are the famous names, but the best character is Terry, straightlaced and about to get married and settle down, right down.
Ewan McGregor's character slips him some E and Terry goes raving - and spends the rest of the movie painted blue and naked apart from his swimming trunks.
Very good

An Aussie film from a couple of years ago, saw it when we where out there, and loved it..
Have to say that dust devil is aweful! Easily in my top 5 worst films along with Mullholland Drive and Kalifornia.
Zatoichi that someone mentioed was great. Blind swordsman and a tap dancing finale. What more do you need?
big fan of offbeat subtitled european filums but im afraid 'cinema paradiso' really tested my will to live
jean de florette / manon des sources

Love Mullholland Drive quality film by Lynch..
Brain Dead...By the same director how went on to remake King Kong.
This film is awesome gross the acting is brilliantly funny.
Blow.. Johnny Depp. Fanstastic acting and a great True story.
The assignment..About a naval officer who looks remarkably like Carlos the Jackal, He's recruited and trained by CIA to discredit him with the Russians.
I'd love to again see
"Cold Dog Soup"
anybody got a copy?
Edit:Its being re-released in Feb - anybody want to come round and watch a copy 
Dead Mans Shoes - One of the best British films ever made !
One for the boys really.... Not many ladies appreciate the violent undertones.
Boiler room.
no one for elling or (the original) funny games?
I saw the remake of funny games. Hated it - just could not see the point of it. There was no story, no point, no moral, just... nothing.
I thought Dead Mans Shoes was excellent though - Paddy Considine is great!
+1 for Primer. Thought it was excellent.
5.0 out of 5 stars Worth Watching...
Jean-Jaques Annaud managed to produce one of the most original movies of the 1980s with his prehistoric adventure: Quest for Fire. He battled for years for the right to produce and direct this film; the reason being that the film executives didn't see the point of making a film about such an obscure era, especially one that had no English dialogue or ordinary narrative...
Shot in Scotland & Kenya.
it is a classic. unbelievable photography and landscapes, with a good deal of action and humour, makes it a worthwhile viewing experience.
just in case anyone knows it, years ago i saw a film in french (subtitled) about this guy who goes around murdering people, but he does it in funny ways like screaming at an old person for instance, you end up kinda liking the chap.
I think the title was something to do with the amount of lead/bricks it takes to way down a body in water? sorry longshot i know.
Got Boondock Saints on DVD the bit with the rope always makes me laugh.
tails - Memberjust in case anyone knows it, years ago i saw a film in french (subtitled) about this guy who goes around murdering people,
Man bites dog, as mentioned above? As I said, I only watched it once and it affected me so much I've never had the courage to watch it again!

Could be, but it certainly wouldn't affect someone that much in fact it was kinda funny.
yeah that sounds like the one. That is a good film and hardly graphic compared to irreversible, thats horrible.
From what I recall, it wasn;t graphics at all, it was the mindset that got to me. I will dig it out again and watch it when I get chance
+1 for 2 Lane Blacktop and the Three Colours trilogy.
Old black and white horror films 'Dead of Night' and 'Halfway House'.
'Dead Letter Office', Aussie film with Miranda Otto as the lead.
'Green for Danger' with Alastair Sim.
'Breaker Morant' with Edward Woodward.
'Wings of Desire', Wim Wenders' brilliant original version of City Of Angels - infinitely better.
Anything with Stan and Ollie, although 'Towed in a Hole' is a particular favourite.
Carnival of Souls
Oh yes. Great performances, lovely spooky music. Reminds me of the 60s Twilight Zone series but has aged a lot better. I'll bet that M. Night Shitehawk bloke has seen it too.
I really like the films I've seen by Alejandro Jodorowsky, particularly El Topo. They're as surreal and funny as anything by Terry Gilliam but quite a bit more nightmarish. El Topo is a completely demented Spaghetti Western that suddenly morphs into a religious parable.
If
Man Bites Dog for me too. Funny, but very very grim. I remember watching it in the piccies at about the same time Reservoir Dogs was out. It made Reservoir Dogs look quite tame.
That is a good film and hardly graphic compared to irreversible
Goodbye Pork Pie
Battletruck
Quiet Earth
