Best hidden gem movies?
What are yours?
One movie I love which never gets mentioned is called Take Shelter. Won't spoil it because you should watch it but the premise is a family man has a dream that the world is going to end so he becomes obsessed with building a doomsday shelter and alienates himself from his family. Well worth a watch

I feel like it's gotten more popular over the years but there was a time when [REC] was a hidden gem. Still a lot of normies that have never heard of it even after it started getting recognized more.

Jungle with Daniel Radcliffe is great, and pretty much flew under the radar.
