Ok - I should have had "The Mouse that Roared" Great!

And for B movies you HAVE to include "The incredable shrinking man" A classic.

I never cared for the slasher films. And John Wayne? Not really that great I think. Westerns of course never did much for me. I worked on a ranch and that all seemed so... unreal. I also never "got" Elvis. Perhapes because of the dreadful movies he made so many of. Ugh!

What was the name of the "B" movie B/W where these guys land a helo inside a volcano in the antarctic that has dinos running around? And they can't take off because some widget is broken but they use the main rotor blade to slice up a T-Rex to keep it away? I would LOVE to get that movie but I don't know the name or anyone who was in it?

Truly, anything with Bruce Campbell rocks my socks...

Another fan of the Chin, alright! There's nothing quite like sitting down and watching Evil Dead 1, Evil Dead 2, and Army of Darkness in one night. Bubba Hotep was pretty fucking good.

I'm gonna have to say ...

Se7en

Dawn of the Dead (zombies at the mall ... it's every boy's fantasy!)

Fight Club

I know the movie you are talking about, but just can't place the title right now. It will come to me, eventually.:-\

If you ever run across it, "Village of Dreams", Japanese, is probably the best movie I've ever seen.

I was an extra in a Korean movie called Queen Bee. I never got to see it though :)

Tonight I went to the Castro Theatre. It was a double feature with 'Double Indemnity' (http://imdb.com/title/tt0036775/) and 'Clash by Night' (http://imdb.com/title/tt0044502/)

Both films were very intense

Dr Strangelove. I find new things to laugh at each time...

They might be Giants *Dig to find this one. WONDERFUL!

The Odd Couple - Suicide Telegram??? Funny every time.

2001 - I loved the clean look of the future and the "balls" of the director to try to show a story where man meets a truly advanced civilization.

Slaughterhouse 5 (Not a slasher pic btw)

Someone mentioned "The Thing" (the original) I enjoyed it and the remake was dreadful... Another old classic SciFi is "THEM" you can't beat giant Atomic ants for entertainment.

Ah, 'Dr Strangelove' :D -- that movie is much fun; Peter Sellers is great.

I liked the remake of 'The Thing'. :P

'Magnolia' is one of my very favorites. 'The Picture of Dorian Gray', the one with Angela Lansbury, I like a lot. 'The Testament of Dr. Mabuse' I always find creepy and enjoyable. 'Requiem For A Dream', also pretty good.

'L'Iceberg' is one I saw recently that was just so beautifully shot and quite funny for having so little dialogue.

'About A Boy' I've seen soo many times and still love it.
