Bubba Ho-Tep (2003,  R)
Bubba Ho-Tep
Pee your pants laugh 'till your ribs threaten to cave in fun. You have to have a very sick sense of the hilarious to enjoy this movie - or maybe just have to have a sense of humor at all.

May (2003,  R)

I need more parts. -- No seriously - this is a movie that should have several sequels & AT LEAST one prequel.
3
Slither (2006,  R)
Slither
Classic - other than the fact that lots of this movie is severly gruesome - this is truly a comedy set in a horror movie. So much mad hilarious fun I wanted to watch it again IMMEDIATELY.
4
Army of Darkness (1993,  R)
Army of Darkness
Just plain FUN! Shop S-Mart.
5
Night Watch (Nochnoi Dozor) (2006,  R)
Night Watch (Nochnoi Dozor)
Intense storyline & action - a new and original take on the established vampire mythology. Well worth the time.
6
Crank (2006,  R)
Crank
An absolute classic & on par with Pulp Fiction for bizarre turns and comic gruesome fun. Of course it wasn't beliveable - hello - it's called fiction.
7
High Tension (Switchblade Romance) (2004,  R)
High Tension (Switchblade Romance)
This deserves to be on the list of all time classic gruesome movies if only for the head scene. Brilliant - although if I ever had to listen to the soundtrack I'd have to shoot my ears out.

Le Pacte des loups (Brotherhood of the Wolf)
Brilliantly written & directed - didn't even notice the subtitles after the first scene. Fantastic movie.

Lady in the Water (2006,  PG-13)
Lady in the Water
I was expecting this movie to suck. Everyone told me this movie sucked. Good thing I didn't listen. I was amazed and thrilled when this story captured my imagination. Beautifully written & directed with excellent casting. Anyone who was expecting another 'horror' flick got a big surprise with this one.

From out of nowhere this movie was surprising, original, scary, and I can't wait for them to make more movies.

I still giggle myself silly every time I watch this one.
26
Serenity (2005,  PG-13)
Serenity
I started watching firefly against my will - but Buffy was cancelled and that was the next best thing. I absolutely hate the theme song but it seems to grow on you after the first hundred or so times. This movie takes all the humor and gritty future realistically right to you. The only bad part was that it ended. Love the concept - love the characters & believed every word.

Big Bad Love (2001,  R)
Big Bad Love
I actually watched this movie by accident - it caught my attention & I couldn't turn it off. Not in my genre preferences, not even remotely something I would pick off the shelf to rent normally - but an excellent thought provoking movie. Realistic & stunning.
