15 SEVERELY good films
By an Amazon.com customer

	Reflecting Skin [VHS] Buy used from: $19.90 wow. this one takes you on a head trip that may take a few days to figure out (if you ever do). a young boy and his world adrift some where in the wheatfields (canada, kansa???). a minor masterpiece.
	Forbidden Planet Buy new: $5.79 / Used from: $7.98 the one and only. if joseph campbell had made a sci-fi film (other than star wars) it might well have been FP. classic, timeless myth
	Invaders from Mars Buy used from: $24.98 w.c.menzies shares every child's nightmare vison of the end of the world -- which begins with his own parents. dreamy.
	Return to Oz Buy used from: $17.94 speaking of nightmares, try on this one. this is dorothy the way she was MEANT to be seen - in an insane asylum! NOT for tots.
	Blood Simple [VHS] Buy used from: $1.44 bang for the buck, the cohen boys will never beat this one - their first. juicy, perfect, even scary. e. emmet walsh rules!
	Dune (Widescreen Edition) [VHS] Buy used from: $0.23 forget the book and just enjoy this one for the ride: an unforgettable trip to a totally alien civilization. squeeky fun.
	The Hidden Buy used from: $2.98 another terriffic joyride: kyle is good, but william boyett (tv's dragnet!) steals the show as a rock music-crazed alien on a mission. a lark.
	I Am the Cheese [VHS] Buy used from: $3.59 faithful to the novel, this one rocks as a surprising tale of a lonely teenage finding himself. finding himself, but where is that ????????
	Slaughterhouse Five [VHS] Buy used from: $3.43 possibly the finest sci-fi film of the latter 20th century. meet billy pilgrim: an unlikely who's come "unstuck in time". a sweet and (almost) true story.
	Body Heat Buy used from: $2.70 this one should be much higher on the list. CERTAINLY one of the 5 best films in the last 50 years. ned meets matty and , even frame-by-frame, "it is hot!"
	Jacob's Ladder Buy new: $8.49 / Used from: $1.97 bad acid (but not without it's redeeming qualities!) the tub scene still freaks me out......
	Dreamchild [VHS] Buy used from: $11.77 lewis carroll: a sweet (and sweetened) storybook tribute to unrequited love. i prefer this version over the factual one anyday.....
	Hired Hand [VHS] Buy used from: $1.49 a western?? yes, and that fonda boy in his best hour (2 hours really). oates and bloom are the real mccoy in this "easy rider" on horseback. beautifully filmed.
	Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory Buy used from: $3.63 not entirely as sweet as it looks (as in that weird, goofy tunnel scene) but still fun for children of all stages.
	Days of Heaven Buy new: $9.98 / Used from: $2.95 forget gere. forget mailk. linda manz (her only film ever) owns this one. and forget VHS - it's DVD widescreen dvd or don't bother.
