Mmm, I must give all genuine credibility to "Fight Club". While being very thought provoking in both subtle in obvious ways, it also surpassed a detested shit film that was over praised by main stream, propagandic multi-media. You all know what I am talking about, "The Matrix". Fight Club deserved more than twice of the fungus arsed praise The Matrix received. It was a pinnacle and tantamount of the ultimate ingenious film. *weeps from the injustice*

The Abyss. One of the most consistantly underated films of all time. Even if the movie was shit (not that I think it is, BTW) I'd still love it for the production design. All the equipment, sets, ROVs, etc. look practical and realistic... mainly because most of it IS real. How do you top reality?

I rather like Tremors 2. It's nice to see a sequel that doesn't suck. Army of Darkness is also pretty good.

mmm, "M" classic film noir

"You have no right to judge me, your worse then I am, you CHOOSE to be this way, I can't Help it."

Such a great line for such a dispicable character, next to Harry Lime he's my favorite villian
