My top fifteen favorite movies (in no particular order)
By an Amazon.com customer
The SentinelThe Sentinel
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $5.19
I can't really explain why I like this horror movie so much, but I can say that Im afraid to watch it alone at night.
Arizona Dream [VHS]Arizona Dream [VHS]
Buy used from: $4.60
Emir Kusturika is one of the best directors ever. The movie is a little out there, but if you like it you'll REALLY like it.. Probably my fav performances from Gallo and Depp..
Escape from L.A.Escape from L.A.
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $2.90
Headbanging in movie form.
Over the EdgeOver the Edge
Buy new: $14.49 / Used from: $11.24
is there another movie like this one? Should be more recognized than it is..
My Own Private Idaho - Criterion CollectionMy Own Private Idaho - Criterion Collection
Buy new: $23.99 / Used from: $15.24
Gets better every time. And Im up above a hundred times at this point...
Flesh for Frankenstein - Criterion CollectionFlesh for Frankenstein - Criterion Collection
Buy used from: $28.85
One of the best (and weirdest) horror movies ever. I can't really argue that Blood for Dracula isn't just as good, I think I just have a soft spot for Flesh because I saw it first.
The Texas Chainsaw MassacreThe Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Buy used from: $0.70
it really is the best. I still haven't seen the remake, but it sounds like blasphemy.
Angels With Dirty FacesAngels With Dirty Faces
Buy new: $13.99 / Used from: $4.78
I dont know what to say... It's just a really really good movie. My favorite of anything made before 1950
Dirty HarryDirty Harry
Buy used from: $1.48
Harry Callahan is by far the baddest. You can see (especially now) how much this changed the action genre, and its still the best.
Driller Killer / The Early Short Films of Abel FerraraDriller Killer / The Early Short Films of Abel Ferrara
Buy new: $26.99 / Used from: $12.56
Wow. Abel Ferrara should've been in more of his movies. He's great! I dont know if I could watch anyone else gripe for an hour and a half. The Roosters rock and I want that painting!
Monty Python's Life of Brian (Criterion Collection Spine #61)Monty Python's Life of Brian (Criterion Collection Spine #61)
Buy new: $28.49 / Used from: $6.63
best Python movie in my opinion...
Taoism DrunkardTaoism Drunkard
Buy used from: $3.47
Word up. Rat Face, Cherry Boy, Grandma, and a crazy watermelon monster. What Ive always looked for in a kung fu flick.
On the Waterfront (Special Edition)On the Waterfront (Special Edition)
Buy new: $14.49 / Used from: $9.99
I was basically running through all the classics at one point, and this one just hit me out of nowhere. The best acting I have ever seen in a movie. Period. Movies really don't get much better.
A Better TomorrowA Better Tomorrow
Buy used from: $7.25
My fav John Woo, and one of my favorites of all time.
The Pit/HellgateThe Pit/Hellgate
Buy new: $8.49 / Used from: $3.79
The Pit is my favorite movie of all time. I wrote a whole album about it (w/Tra-La-Log & D.I.G.I.T.A.L.) I dont think I could possibly enjoy myself more while watching any other movie.
