 | Forbidden Planet (Two-Disc Special Edition)
Buy new: $13.99 / Used from: $13.71 Made in 1956 this movie answered the question 'what is religion for'? At least it did when I first viewed it as a teenager.

 | The Hidden
Buy used from: $2.99 In the face of some bizarre murders going down in police officer Beck's jurisdiction he always reacted credibly. I could imagine myself responding the same way. Great dialog in this movie. It inspired me to improve my own ear for it in my writing.

Buy new: $8.99 / Used from: $8.20 The first and still the best although the second one was very respectable. The premise is simple but effective. How do you stop the unstoppable force?

Buy new: $9.49 / Used from: $7.83 How can one top this masterpiece? In spite of the slow pace the story still compels one to pay attention. Great visuals even if the special effects are dated.

 | The Day the Earth Stood Still
Buy new: $12.49 / Used from: $2.30 I was ambivalent when this movie was remade. Yes, the 1951 version was a little too quaint but the story still resonated. Gort still looks threatening to me even after seeing the updated 30 foot tall version in the remake.

 | Star Wars Trilogy
Buy new: $24.49 / Used from: $22.03 Space Opera done right. Intimidating bad guys that breath ominously, damsels in distress and a hero that comes of age against the backdrop of galactic empire.
