Here it is! The brainchild of George Lucas and Steven Spielberg's love of adventure serials from the 30's. The one that started it all! Pure movie magic.

Well-acted drama about the wealthy aristocratic Englishwoman of the title and her general sexual urges. Very lush and a treat for the eyes based on D.H. Lawrence's scandalous novel. You don't have to be a pervert to like this one.

Very funny comedy featuring Dudley Moore as a bumbling, drunken billionaire who's forced to choose between true love and an arranged marriage that is a stipulation of his continued inheritance. Great humor and even a few positive messages, too.

Excellent (and strange) tale of a plastic surgeon (Albert Finney) who inadvertantly uncovers a conspiracy to knock-off high-end, top fashion models. Good thriller.

An almost simultaneous parallel tale to Wolfen featuring police officers Sylvester Stallone and Billy Dee Williams on the trail of a notorious European terrorist (Rutger Hauer) wreaking havoc in NYC. Gritty and suspensful with a knock-out ending!

Send in the nuns! Director Mel Brooks' standout comedy spoof of history throughout the ages from the Old Testament to the Renaissance. Very funny bits and classic moments throughout in the tradition of Monty Python.

An ultra-cool, cult-classic actioner from director John Carpenter featuring Kurt Russell in one of his signature roles as bad-mutha mercenary Snake Plissken who must infiltrate the maximum security prison penal colony of Manhattan Island(!) Grim, gritty and loads of fun!

Lush, visually astounding retelling of the legend of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table by legendary director John Boorman. The best cinematic version of the Arthurian legend there is! If you haven't seen it, GET THIS!

An all-time, classic sci-fi/comedy that will entertain and thrill both children and adults alike! The story of a precocious young Englishboy who is whisked away on a journey through time and space with six cosmic dwarves who have stolen a map of the universe. Immensely satisfying.

An outstanding companionpiece to An American Werewolf in London from director Joe Dante. A first-rate lycanthropic tale (this time set in America) about a secret werewolf colony in the remote wilds of Northern California. A great cast and a true trend-setter! One heck of an ending!

The moderately scary, 5-years-later-set sequel to the original Friday the 13th that's actually better than the first. Jason Voorhees has now returned from the infamous, now-shuttered "Camp Blood" to wreak havoc at a new, nearby camp on Crsytal Lake. This the one with "bag-head" Jason.

Tobe Hooper-helmed horror thriller based on the Dean Koontz novel. A group of teens trapped inside a carnival funhouse after-hours must find a way to escape while being stalked by an inhuman monstrosity. Pretty scary stuff!

A raunchy, cult-classic featuring the sophomoric, sexual-quested exploits of an uber-horny group of high-school seniors over the course of a single weekend. Set at the popular hang-out joint of the title in Florida during the late 50's. Very fun if not always funny and definitely one that all of us guys will want to watch over and over again!

A little-seen French film about the police chief (Philippe Noiret) of a French colonial town in West Africa in 1938 who's had enough of being kicked around and mistreated by everyone. A magnificent, beautifully-filmed foreign picture! Definitely worth seeing!

I'll admit I've never actually seen this before but I felt as a completist it should be included on the list. By all accounts it is reputed to be a very good interwoven story set in NYC at the dawn of the 20th century.
