LaParkaYourCar Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 This one isn't obscure, but I decided to throw it out there for a nostalgia kick. Cloak & Dagger!!! Sorry I just got to thinking about how cool that movie was.
LaParkaYourCar Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 Here's a few old ones for you guys: Condorman! The Strongest Man in the World, Now You See Me Now You Don't, and The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes (great series of Disney Movies)
Guest Youth N Asia Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 Death Race 2000...that movie is the shit
Guest razazteca Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 Kurt Russell Disney movies ruled back in the day.
LivingLegendGaryColeman Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 Probably not too obscure, kind of recent too, but one I bring up when people are trying to find a comedy, to think of something no one has really seen, Buying the Cow. It has Jerry O'Connell, Bill Belemy and Ryan Reynolds. It has its moments (i.e. Ryan Reynold's "Spider-man" scene).
Guest Brush with Greatness Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 None of these are overly obscure but all are great: One Day in September (won Oscar for Best Documentary back around 2000) GRUNT: The Wrestling Movie Suburbia (Dick Linklater's next film after Dazed and Confused) Virgin Suicides (Sofia Coppola's first movie) Bottle Rocket (Wes Anderson's first movie) Another View Askew one which I have not seen is Catching Flies (I believe is the title)
Guest Marshall Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 Has anyone seen Funny Games? Seriously, it's mental! If that movie doesn't make you sick then you're cold. Another View Askew one which I have not seen is Catching Flies (I believe is the title) It's Drawing Flies, and it's pretty bad, I'd say it's the worst VA movie. The only other VA movie is Big Helium Dog, which I'm dying to see, but they won't release the DVD yet!
Guest DawnBTVS Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 None of these are overly obscure but all are great: One Day in September (won Oscar for Best Documentary back around 2000) GRUNT: The Wrestling Movie Suburbia (Dick Linklater's next film after Dazed and Confused) Virgin Suicides (Sofia Coppola's first movie) Bottle Rocket (Wes Anderson's first movie) Another View Askew one which I have not seen is Catching Flies (I believe is the title) Virgin Suicides indeed rules
The Dames Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 I wouldn't say Virgin Suicides is an obscure movie. Josh Hartnett and Kirsten Dunst were in it AND MTV gave the movie a video package when presenting Sofia Coppola with the Best New Filmmaker Award a couple of years back. Dames
Guest Boo_Bradley Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 I haven't seen many obscure movies so these might be somewhat common. Eight Days a Week Pups Pups? The Burt Reynolds Movie? I've seen some obscure movies in my day, mostly I've only watched them once and forgot about them.
Guest nl5xsk1 Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 Pieces Skinheads: The Fourth Coming of Hate Another State of Mind
Guest Boo_Bradley Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 The 500 lb Jerk and Carolina Skeletons will be my additions to the list.
Guest TUS_02 Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 I saw Series 7: Contenders mostly because it was filmed in the next town over from where I lived in CT. I spent the whole movie finding places I knew. Which was definatly plentiful. As for GayNiggers from Outter Space, if you know where to look, you can find it. it's not terrible by any means, but I strongly suggest being under the influence of SOMETHING before you watch it.
Guest Addy Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 Castle Freak. I watched it when I was quite young and it was geuinely scary. Also, Phallus In Wonderland.
Guest godthedog Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 that's funny, when i was 13 i thought of a masturbation porno title called 'phallus in wonderhand'.
Guest Ravenbomb Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 Made in Britain = SO awesome! my additions Polish Vampire in Burbank Altered States Snowball Express Deterrence Killer Condom: The Rubber that Rubs you Out (I know at least CHUD has heard of it)
Guest BorneAgain Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 I haven't seen many obscure movies so these might be somewhat common. Eight Days a Week Pups Pups?

Guest Razor Roman Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 Backbeat All about the Beatles in Germany, basically the story of Stuart Sutcliffe. First R-rated movie I saw in a theater. I hated the movie, but played the hell out of the soundtrack.
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 Angel Heart Robert De Niro playing a guy named Louis Cypher(took me a while to figure out what that meant before they revealed it). Mickey Rourke putting in a good performance. And the movie that got Lisa Bonet fired from Cosby. Kick ass movie too.
Guest notJames Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 None of these are overly obscure but all are great: Suburbia (Dick Linklater's next film after Dazed and Confused) Saw that one. Decent performances from Giovanni Ribisi and the queen of the B-movies, Parker Posey. Angel Heart Robert De Niro playing a guy named Louis Cypher(took me a while to figure out what that meant before they revealed it). Mickey Rourke putting in a good performance. And the movie that got Lisa Bonet fired from Cosby… Another in a long line of erotic thrillers featuring Mr. Rourke (9 1/2 Weeks, Wild Orchid). I heard once that Rourke and Bonet had gotten so worked up during one of their sex scenes that they finally did it in a broom closet. Take from that what you will. Has anyone seen Wisdom? It was written and directed by Emilio Estevez and featured him and Demi Moore in the lead roles. Sort of a modern day Robin Hood story with a twist at the end.
LaParkaYourCar Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 Louis Cypher Wasn't that also the name of the traitor in the first Matrix? And of course it's Lou Cypher = Lucifer. I also didn't catch that till someone pointed it out.

I heard once that Rourke and Bonet had gotten so worked up during one of their sex scenes that they finally did it in a broom closet. Take from that what you will. I wouldn't consider it an erotic thriller. There was one major sex scene but that was about it.
Guest Zack Malibu Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 Killer Condom: The Rubber that Rubs you Out (I know at least CHUD has heard of it) I've heard of this, only because I'm 99% sure Troma has the rights to it and released it. Also, Castle Freak isn't obscure, as it's touted as probably the best Full Moon movie outside of the early Puppet Master ones. A few more outta my basket: Hunk Last To Surrender Crisis (aka Dead End) Bloody Birthday The Mutilator (1983) Offerings Starstruck (aka Starfucker) Seven Girlfriends
Guest Dangerous A Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 City of God. It was out in arthouse theatres at the end of last year and earlier this year. It was the best movie I've seen in about 3 years. Critics and whoever saw it compared it to Gangs of New York, but City of God is what Gangs wanted to be. Just an awesome movie and you guys should check it out when it hits DVD. I promise you won't be disappointed.
Guest CoreyLazarus416 Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 doink: Yes, The Item is good. Kung-fu transvestites, a phallic creature, tons of fat jokes, and acting that is so obviously over-the-top it's spectacular. It's SOV (Shot-On-Video), but digital, so don't expect superb quality footage. The Convent is another one. I love that movie so much.
Guest Marshall Posted June 11, 2003 Report Posted June 11, 2003 City of God is the best movie I have ever seen. It got snubed like a mother fucker at the oscars.
Guest Nevermortal Posted June 12, 2003 Report Posted June 12, 2003 The Church. Demons raping and killing peasant folk! Yeah!

Just an awesome movie and you guys should check it out when it hits DVD. I promise you won't be disappointed. Interesting that you make that comparison, because I first saw the trailer for City of God preceding Gangs of New York, and was quite excited that it'd come to the Nickelodeon, Santa Cruz' "art house theatre" (because for some reason none of the chains would carry it), unfortunately it never did (at least not that I was aware of...). Do you have any details/dates on a DVD release? I'd love to see it.
