- DirectorShane CarruthStarsShane CarruthDavid SullivanCasey GoodenFour friends/fledgling entrepreneurs, knowing that there's something bigger and more innovative than the different error-checking devices they've built, wrestle over their new invention.a zero budget sci-fi movie about two guys who accidentally create a time machine. no fx, cgi no bells or whistles, , just an amazing script. it twists your melon but it definitely is worth repeated viewings. It renders the idea of time travel as plausible and that's quite a feat.

Behind his monstrous façade, there is revealed a person of kindness, intelligence and sophistication.i could and probably will eventually have most of Lynch's work on this list. So here is the film lynch made after eraserhead. Victorian Britain, a good-old fashioned british freak story, john gielgud, hopkins, freddie jones, and it is absolutely faultless. and it makes me cry more than any other movie i have ever seen : )

- DirectorJohn FrankenheimerStarsRock HudsonFrank CampanellaJohn RandolphAn unhappy middle-aged banker agrees to a procedure that will fake his death and give him a completely new look and identity - one that comes with its own price.great paranoid thriller from frankenheimer at the height of his powers. and did you know rock hudson could do stuff like this??!
- DirectorChris MarkerStarsÉtienne BeckerJean NégroniHélène ChatelainThe story of a man forced to explore his memories in the wake of World War III's devastation, told through still images.the inspiration for 12 monkeys. which i love, but this is as close to perfect a deeply affecting poem. apart from one shot, it is all told in still images. a true work of work of art.
- DirectorBrian De PalmaStarsSissy SpacekPiper LaurieAmy IrvingCarrie White, a shy, friendless teenage girl who is sheltered by her domineering, religious mother, unleashes her telekinetic powers after being humiliated by her classmates at her senior prom.watched this again recently and it was so much better than i remembered. in fact i could not believe how brilliant it is. so forget the pointless remake and watch this instead. just wonderful cinema and perhaps the closest de palma has come to a total masterpiece.
- DirectorPhilip KaufmanStarsDonald SutherlandBrooke AdamsJeff GoldblumWhen strange seeds drift to earth from space, mysterious pods begin to grow and invade San Francisco, replicating the city's residents one body at a time.one of the best remakes. to my mind one of the few that is superior to the original
- DirectorJohn CarpenterStarsKurt RussellWilford BrimleyKeith DavidA research team in Antarctica is hunted by a shape-shifting alien that assumes the appearance of its victims.regardless of genre. ( sci fi/horror) one of my favs of all time. watched at least once a year. carpenters best by a country mile.
- DirectorJosef von BákyStarsHans AlbersWilhelm BendowMichael BohnenThis lavish, impudent, adult fairy tale takes the viewer from 18th-century Braunschweig to St. Petersburg, Constantinople, Venice, and then to the moon using ingenious special effects, stunning location shooting.amazing not only because it is better than any other version, but was made under the noses of the nazis and managed to be such a wonderful humanist picture and it is TRULY moving. more people need to see it.
- DirectorRidley ScottStarsSigourney WeaverTom SkerrittJohn HurtThe crew of a commercial spacecraft encounters a deadly lifeform after investigating a mysterious transmission of unknown origin.just the best sci-fi /horror hybrid ever. which is why so many ( me included) though prometheus was such a dreadful let down. also, it was the first 'proper' x-rated film i ever saw. a total classic apart from one shot, just one! which leads me on to....
- DirectorRidley ScottStarsHarrison FordRutger HauerSean YoungA blade runner must pursue and terminate four replicants who stole a ship in space and have returned to Earth to find their creator.predictable maybe. and , until the final final directors digitally remastered cut, again had ONE SHOT that was really annoying ( mail me if you want to know which one) however that being said, the final final directors digitally remastered cut is TOTAL PERFECTION.
- DirectorRichard LinklaterStarsKeanu ReevesWinona RyderRobert Downey Jr.An undercover cop in a not-too-distant future becomes involved with a dangerous new drug and begins to lose his own identity as a result.best philip k dick adaptation thus far ( imho). and even keannu ( act) reeves is good in it, probably because he has been rotoscoped and turned into a cartoon paradoxically giving his best performance. brilliant film. for those who know the book, the rendering of the 'scramble suits' is genius.
- DirectorPark Chan-wookStarsChoi Min-sikYoo Ji-taeKang Hye-jeongAfter being kidnapped and imprisoned for fifteen years, Oh Dae-Su is released, only to find that he must track down his captor in five days.it is as good as everyone says. and pays off repeated viewings. and it has probably the most labrynthine plot ever, but he pulls it off admirably ( why do the koreans make such amazing revenge thrillers?)

- DirectorTodd SolondzStarsJane AdamsJon LovitzPhilip Seymour HoffmanThe lives of several individuals intertwine as they go about their lives in their own unique ways, engaging in acts which society as a whole might find disturbing in a desperate search for human connection.this is very dark humour, in fact there is stuff here that is the blackest i can remember seeing. but the writing and acting elevate it into a very moving film. wait till you see philip seymour hoffman heavy breathing on the phone.
- DirectorJulian JarroldStarsAndrew GarfieldDavid MorrisseyJohn HenshawRookie journalist Eddie Dunford is determined to find the truth in an increasingly complex maze of lies and deceit surrounding the police investigation into a series of child abductions.watch all 3 films. my personal fav is the middle one, but the whole thing is amazing.
