Some sleeper classics IMHO.  Oh, and there are a lot.

Carnival of Souls : Classic 1960s horror, even though it's cheesetastic, it's very creepy.  Scary like the Twilight Zone.

House on Haunted Hill : Vincent Price in one of his finest hours.

UHF : The much underrated, pre Kramer, Michael Richards / Wierd Al Yankovic comedy.

Blade Runner : The Penultimate Film Noir Sci-Fi classic.  It helped solidify Ridley Scott as one of the best directors in Hollywood, with an ensemble cast that's impossibly good.

Yellowbeard : The lost "Monty Python meets Cheech & Chong meets Mel Brooks' comedy acting masters and do a Pirate movie.  Look up the cast on IMDB and blow your mind.

Something Wicked This Way Comes : Disney does Ray Bradbury Horror.  Jonathon Pryce is extremely creepy as the evil Mr. Dark.

Snatch : Guy Ritchie with an all-star cast and spoof heist film.  Never give a pit bull a squeeky toy, and never piss off a man who owns a herd of pigs.

Ran : Akira Kurosawa does King Lear

Four Rooms : Tim Roth is a scream as the over stressed night desk clerk in a cruddy little hotel and the 4 events that drive him crazy.  I have to stop the tape at the end of "The Misbehavers" story cause I'm laughing too hard.

Judgement Night : Stars Denis Leary, Emilio Estevez, Jeremy Piven and Cuba Gooding Jr. in some serious breakout performances.  You'll never look at the bad side of town the same way again.

Gothic : A very strange movie with sound score by Thomas Dolby.  4 authors spend a night in a haunted chateau in Switzerland (Mary Shelley Wollingstonescraft, Percy Byche Shelley, Lord Byron and someone else I can't remember)  Twisted stuff maynard.

Nomads : Pierce Brosnan as a cultural anthropologist gets entangled with an evil set of wandering spirits that slowly seduce him to follow.

The Serpent & The Rainbow : Loosely based on the book "The Ethnobiology of the Hatian Zombie".  Every male watching it will curl into a small ball with the torture scene.

The Haunting : The original 1960's version is MUCH more terrifying than the 1990's remake.

Pleasantville : One of JT Walsh's last performances.  An incredible story about normality and being different, right and wrong.  Tobey McGwire, Reese Witherspoon, Don Knotts, William H. Macy star.

Michael Collins : Biopic starring Liam Neeson about the origins of the IRA and it's first real leader.  Very moving.

The Name of the Rose : A Midevil crime drama starring Sean Connery and Christian Slater.  Very cool to wonder how they can solve the murders with no concept of forensics.

Giant : James Dean Classic with stellar cast.  Rolling historical drama.  Fun stuff.

The Hidden : Sci Fi alien horror.  May be dated now but still kinda cool.

Dirty Rotten Scoundrels : One of the funniest movies ever.  Steve Martin's "Ruprecht the Monkey Boy is one of the funniest bits ever put on film

Johnny English : Rowan Atkinson shows off his flawless physical comedy and wit in a wonderful spy spoof.

A Midnight Clear : Not your usual WW2 flick.  Follows a series of events of a scout patrol just before the battle of the bulge.  The movie is a heartbreaker.

Emperor of the North Pole : One awesome Hobo flick.  If you like trains, this is a must own.  Ernest Borgnine as a homicidal conductor is truely chilling.

Jackie Chan : Who Am I : IMHO one of his best behind "Legend of Drunken Master". 

Spirited Away : Studio Ghibli's anime masterpiece IMHO.  Great for kids and adults, and distributed by Disney no less!  Check out the voice cast specials on the DVD, very very cool.

MIllenium Actress : Another Anime movie drama about the life of a famous actress looking back over her life and it's internal drama.  It's better than I make it sound.

Yellow Submarine : Even without the drugs, this Beatle's classic is also an animation time capsule.  

Runaway Train : Another must own for train fans, and fans of Akira Kurosawa.  Prisoners escape on a train that becomes a runaway.  

Fools Parade : Last ultimate train flick... if you can find it... Jimmy Stewart, Kurt Russell are in this one about a man's quest to get his money back after getting out of prison only to find his life's savings stolen by the bank manager and local sherrif, who are willing to kill him to keep the money.  I have not found anywhere to buy or rent this one, so if anyone knows where to get a copy, tell me!  I've been looking for nigh 15 years.

as you can tell I watch a lot of movies..
