The Man from Earth A very good film, one of the best (at least for me) films I've watched. And the whole plot happens almost only in 1 room. :D http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0756683/ Here's one of the reviews from IMDB: This is by far the most unusual movie I have ever seen. I am a die hard Sci-Fi buff and found myself wondering why no one has released a movie like this before. I was totally engrossed... the story pulled me in like a Black Hole, I found myself wanting more and more. This film is tantalizing, not to your eyes, not to your ears, but rather where it counts the most...your brain. What a breath of fresh air, I felt satisfied in the end and invigorated. If I had paid 50 dollars to see this film I would not have been disappointed. For anyone who has an intellect, is open minded and ready for an adventure born of thought, Ideas and possibilities, make absolutely certain you do not miss this film. | ||

And don't make fun of me but: Doom surprised me. I thought it would be horrible, but it was pretty entertaining. | ||

Although I love dragons in general I was suprised that the movie was actually pretty good. Recommended if you enjoy cuteness ^^ | ||

Doom was also pretty good. It was a good watch, only because it was just so silly. Most of the films posted look good as well. | ||

Devils on the Doorstep. Pretty amazing Chinese movie about Japanese occupation. Might be difficult to track down. Alejandro Jodorowsky has two movies called "Fando y Lis" and "The Holy Mountain" that are unlike anything you've ever seen: (sort of NSFW) + Show Spoiler + "Sonatine" and "Withnail and I" are both awesome as well, but I don't know how well known they are. | ||
