Foo - Required Viewing: B-movies, oldies, unknowns

Post your recommendations for good flicks. Not blockbusters, or obvious ones like Citizen Kane, but the under dogs that most people might otherwise not know to watch. Post a movie poster to get the folks buzzin'!


My recommendation: Who Killed the electric car?

A documentary about the invention, innovation, production, and eventual destruction and cover up of the electric car industry. Another green motivation to keep you on your bike until the electric car comes back.

It took me a few minutes to "re-find" it....lost that link with computer change over move it seems.

Free Movies (public domain)

There was another free movie site too.....not as much and not as well designed, but it did have a number. I don't remember enough about it to try to find it now though.


A few other fun similar links.

Pumpkinhead. Once you seen him, you wish you were dead.

My additions to the B movie list (both great satire movies):

I got Plan 9 From Outer Space there once. Definitely a must see.

* EDIT - changed tremors poster...the original is best

Tremors was great, but the sequel's.....that I saw.....were really bad.

Plan 9 From Outer Space (Sci-Fi so bad it's almost a spoof of itself)

followed by...

Ed Wood (A Johnny Depp movie about Ed Wood, the Writer/Producer/Director of Plan 9 Martin Landau got an Academy Award for his role, playing an aging Bela Lugosi.)

+1 for Ed Wood. Good flick.

Sideways

Open Water

Wild Man Blues. Follow Woody Allen and his Dixie Land band on their tour through Europe. Hilarious, and very entertaining. It's more of a documentary, so don't expect some witty tale of sex and awkwardness. I picked this one up on a whim and loved it, but I'm already a huge Woody fan, so that helps.

Stranger Than Paradise
The Five Deadly Venoms
Trainspotting
Mulholland Drive
The Naked Kiss

"Trapped in time. Surrounded by evil. Low on gas"

To many to count but try these:

Sweeney Todd : A broadway play type production, pretty weird.
Invasion of the Bee Girls. Just campy...

Then you have the "TRINITY" movies with Bud Spencer and Terrence Hill. Funnier than Monty Python.

Don Johnson, when he were just a pup.

Perhaps the single most "WTF" movie I have ever seen:
