Seems like a good thread... cult classics work in here too...

Under appreciated recent movie I just saw again while up w/ a crying baby at 12am was Idiocracy (Mike Judge Movie) about a guy who wakes up in the year 2500 as the smartest man in really degraded society...

Cult classic:
Army of darkness, hands down one of my favorite inane movie to watch....

All 3 of the Evil Dead movies are great....my kids love Army of Darkness.

A couple of Must See Sc-Fi films are The Day the Earth Stood Still (the original) and Forbidden Planet.

for Cult Films.....Hairspray (Again...The Original) or Blue Velvet (Hands Down Dennis Hopper's best Performance)

:love:

If you are going to watch it, I suggest watching the 3rd installment Rise of the Lycans first, then watch 1 and 2.

Kate Beckinsale is so yummy

Putney Swope. Some of the best satire I can remember. Hilarious. Gratuitous nudity....what's not to like?

the Wraith and the Final Countdown.

The Final Countdown has the best flying scenes of any movie.
