Bump. Watched Coherence on this threads recommendation and it was surprisingly good for such a low budget film (50k.) Gonna check out another random suggestion now.



Since most of the movies I would recommend have been said already, my contributions are "Seven Pounds" and "All the old knives." The former is a Will Smith movie that you should just go into blind and the latter came out this year and has Chris Pine as a CIA agent investigating a mole. I have to warn that there's not a lot of action for the Chris Pine movie and it's mostly a "popcorn flick" to burn time. Don't look up reviews since the film is pretty basic.

Iconic. Cult Classic. No cap.



Christian Slater was unmoggable in his prime





One of the most unusual aspects of the Heathers film is how much life imitates art. Two of the Actors from the film died in an eerie way.

Coincidence?

R.I.P. Jeremy Applegate Dearly departed via self inflicted gunshot wound





R.I.P. Kim Walker Dearly departed due to a Brain Tumor

I think this one would qualify. I know we were caught off guard as I recall the teaser didn’t show much at all and it’s very different than we were expecting.
Super fun movie too imo

I typically dislike horror movies because they are boring to me, however, I really enjoyed this and watched it more than once.

I don't get a lot of time to watch tv/ movies, but I'm definitely going to try to catch more from this thread.

MrPissShivers is a movie expert, I'm surprised he hasn't shown up yet

Edit: let me know if you like fiction books with twists and turns -- I'm more familiar with those
I am interested. I would love to know as I typically read spirituality, occult, esoteric, mystic and magick theme books. If you can compile a list here I would appreciate it. Or if you have one somewhere else and can direct me to it I would be grateful.

I noticed a lot of screenwriters and directors have really great ideas, but don't know how to conclude the 3rd act. Some great movies begin spectacularly during the first two acts, then it begins to unravel in the 3rd for whatever reasons. These two movies I enjoy very much, but are the prototype of said dilemma

Both just happen to be Thrillers with some comedic elements

Kontroll (2003) from Hungary





The Guest (2014)

How could I almost forget this Incel Horror Movie by son of a Billionaire and oil heir Andrew Getty, who died of a drug overdose in 2015?



This movie also fits in the category of first 2/3s great storytelling, but completely falls apart in the 3rd act unfortunately.

Check out the movie, then watch the backstory of the Director and his creative vision.



I'll add a bit more horror in a few...

Lovecraftian Cosmic Horror, The Void (2016)





Tales from the Darkside: The Movie (1990) Anthology Horror. The Gargoyle segment is my absolute favorite. It could easily be a full feature film.



Thriller Crime Horror The Bone Collector (1999)



Oculus (2016) Really good. May have to watch it twice, due to the timeline. Director Mike Flanagan is so talented.



Ouija 2: Origin of Evil (2016). Mike Flanagan again with another banger. This is a sequel to the subpar film that debuted in 2014.



Sci-Fi Horror Pandorum (2009)

Yeah, it's so underrated/unheard of.

The ultimate anti-hook up culture movie. Berlin Syndrome (2017)



Copycat (1995) Crime Thriller Horror about a Killer who mimics Serial Killers of yesteryear



Summer of 84 (2018) Something special about this film to me. I can't place why. In a way, it reminded me of a much more macabre version of The Goonies (The close kinship between the friends, not so much the plot). Teen friends explore and unearth some things about inhabitants of the town they live in.



Intruders (2015/2016) A woman afraid to leave her home unwittingly encounters some unexpected visitors. Another, that is really special to me. I think it's because I would have done the same as her or at the very least aspire to.

It's the final day of the Mexican Holiday, Día de Muertos or Día de los Muertos. HAPPY (LAST) DAY OF THE DEAD!

Midnight Meat Train (2008) I love that the name of the movie can also double as the title for a gheigh buttsecks porno.

She was rescued from one bad situation to only enter an even worse one, with no escape





VACANCY (2007)



The Girl on the Train (2016) Above average Thriller that didn't receive the recognition it deserved.



Housebound (2014) Fun Comedy Horror from New Zealand



I See You (2019) Decent, but not spectacular. An interesting concept for sure. Two teens phrog different houses, as some criminal investigations of disappearances occur in the backdrop.



RUN (2020) Teen unravels mystery of why she's always ill



Spiral (2007) Another Incel Horror about an office worker, who becomes enamored with his coworker and feels compelled to sketch her.



Upgrade (2018) Really clever Action/Sci-fi from Leigh Whannell that I feel was criminally underrated and should have gotten the praise and box office profits that Whannell's The Invisible Man (2020) received.

Nightcrawler (2014)



Enemy (2013) The Enemy of my Enemy is my friend. Or is it me? Abstract and symbolic. Okay, so you need instructions to watch this film. Watch the film, watch the explanation, then re-watch it lol







Nocturnal Animals (2016) Film Noir at its finest. Though Tom Ford is primarily a Fashion Designer, he is an exceptional Filmmaker. I would love for him to do a Mystery Drama Psychological Thriller TV Series.

And hard to follow, too. Great concept. I'm sure it was *extremely* difficult to edit, as well as write. I think that they would have had to do a number of things backwards on that film in order for it to come out the way that it did. ETA: I am referring to Memento, not to Secret Window, which I'm not sure I've ever seen. I saw Memento at the theater and after a while just zoned out (I am ashamed to admit), although my bf at the time was totally into it.

I could swear that this is the film where I first heard/learned of a Vacheron Constantin watch. I couldn't easily find anything online to confirm that, but I saw a film where the actors had anglo accents, almost 100% positive it was either an Aussie or NZ film, and a Vacheron Constantin watch was one of the clues as to starting to unravel the mystery. I thought that I had heard of all of the most expensive ones by now, but that was a new one.

Regardless, this film,Housebound, was a pretty good film.

A Beautiful Mind (2001) The life of Schizophrenic Genius Mathematician, John Faber Nash Jr.



RIP to James Horner who composed the score to this film.

James Horner died in a small plane crash of his private turboprop aircraft on June 22 2015, in which he was the only occupant. Oddly enough, only a month and a day prior on May 23, 2015 John Forbes Nash Jr. and his wife Alicia died in a car crash.

Unironically, my favorite song and scene from said film is:



A.I. (2001) Damn fine film that leaves the eyes teary. Loneliness. Abandonment. Feeling like you have no place in this world. I honestly want a spin off tv series that explores the adventures of Gigolo Joe, David and Teddy.







My favorite score from the Film



Little Children (2006) by Todd Field. If you have seen Eyes Wide Shut, and you recall the role of blindfolded pianist, Nick Nightingale, he is the Director of this film. He's really talented and has a unique creative vision. I wish he directed more movies. It's a tale of two couples lives intertwined. Exploring the dysfunction rife in Suburbia.

A Beautiful Mind (2001) The life of Schizophrenic Genius Mathematician, John Faber Nash Jr.



RIP to James Horner who composed the score to this film.

James Horner died in a small plane crash of his private turboprop aircraft on June 22 2015, in which he was the only occupant. Oddly enough, only a month and a day prior on May 23, 2015 John Forbes Nash Jr. and his wife Alicia died in a car crash.

Unironically, my favorite song and scene from said film is:



A.I. (2001) Damn fine film that leaves the eyes teary. Loneliness. Abandonment. Feeling like you have no place in this world. I honestly want a spin off tv series that explores the adventures of Gigolo Joe, David and Teddy.







My favorite score from the Film



Little Children (2006) by Todd Field. If you have seen Eyes Wide Shut, and you recall the role of blindfolded pianist, Nick Nightingale, he is the Director of this film. He's really talented and has a unique creative vision. I wish he directed more movies. It's a tale of two couples lives intertwined. Exploring the dysfunction rife in Suburbia.

James Horner was a very underrated and wonderful composer, RIP.
