Big Lebowski, The (1998): I don't usually do comedy films, but this is undeniably smart and fun with a brilliant cast who are clearly enjoying themselves, and a whip crack script with wicked dialog. I dare you not to enjoy this movie.
Angel Heart (1987): The ending is terribly predictable, but with a film this good who cares? Outstanding camera work and beautiful imagery. A perfect slice of American gothic noir. Essential.
Deep Red (1976): Yes the characters are ridiculous, but it's giallo so of course they are. The big reveal surprises no one. However, every shot is gorgeous as are the sets. Plus the gore is glorious. One of Argento's best. Great soundtrack by Goblin too.
Some Kind of Wonderful (1987): Another guilty pleasure. The screenplay is weak, but it is nicely shot. Stoltz does ok but comes across as a stalker under a modern lens. Masterson is excellent, and Elias Koteas steals the movie with a wonderfully comic performance.
Solaris (1972)
Attack the Block (2011): Fast paced fun with sharp dialogue. Keep up.
Seventh Sign, The (1988): Essentially a movie trying to explain climate change to religious types.
Raw (Grave) (2016)
Old Dark House, The (1932): Great performances by Ernest Thesiger, and Eva Moore, but somehow doesn't quite hit the right marks.
Girl Walks Home Alone at Night, A (2014)
