La Bête humaine (Judas Was a Woman)(The Human Beast) (1940,  Unrated)
La Bête humaine (Judas Was a Woman)(The Human Beast)
better then very good, but not quite excellent. if that makes any sense
2
L'Armée des ombres (Army in the Shadows) (1969,  Unrated)
3
Rescue Dawn (2007,  PG-13)
4
In Cold Blood (1967,  R)
5
The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes (1970,  PG-13)
The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes
The first thirty minutes or so are flawless, after that it begins to lose its momentum. Nonetheless the film still remains very funny throughout.
6
En Passion (A Passion) (The Passion of Anna) (1969,  R)
7
Nightfall (1957,  Unrated)
8
La Roue (La Rose du rail) (The Wheel) (1923,  PG)
La Roue (La Rose du rail) (The Wheel)
somehow this film really works in spite of being highly melodramatic and quite often self consciously arty. it's very emotional though and it contains many poetic images.
9
The Blue Gardenia (1953,  Unrated)
10
Diary of the Dead (2007,  R)
Diary of the Dead
the most underrated entry in the "Dead" series by far. Actually in my view this film is somewhat of an companion piece to Michael Powell's "Peeping Tom" (a filmmaker whom George greatly admired).
11
Rushmore (1998,  R)
Rushmore
The character of Max was an annoying little twerp, unique no doubt, but annoying nonetheless.
12

13
Wise Blood (1979,  PG)
14
The Testament Of Dr. Mabuse (1933,  Unrated)
15
Batman: The Movie (1966,  PG)
Batman: The Movie
I don't judge this as a "Batman" film, but as a comedy film something which it succeeds quite brilliantly at.
16
The Dark Knight (2008,  PG-13)
The Dark Knight
A terrific but highly flawed film...The late Heath Ledger is phenomenal in a all time great performance. (he honestly surprised me.)
17
Hellboy II: The Golden Army (Hellboy 2) (2008,  PG-13)
Hellboy II: The Golden Army (Hellboy 2)
A silly yet highly entertaining, quirky and visually imaginative escapist film.
18
Porco Rosso (Kurenai no buta) (2003,  PG)
Porco Rosso (Kurenai no buta)
I'm probably underrating this film.
