gimme movie recommendations...not brand spanking new movies...L's been pretty much in charge of picking movies and has gotten some great ones, and several i'd never have watched on my own

Have you ever seen Hard Rock Zombies? It's a bizarre and really cheesy bad b movie, with underage groupies with songs dedicated to them, and of course a band of supposedly "hard rockers" that turn into kiss-looking zombies. There's a zombie Hitler too.
Dude, it is so not irrational to hate Kevin Costner and Keanu Reeves!
Here are a few - not all are necessarily 'suspenseful' but damned good movies.
Santa Sangre: Chilian film - shocking and beautiful
Delicatessen: French film, quirky, funny, macabre and artistic
Wristcutters: A Love Story: A clever tale about where people who kill themselves go. It's a boy kills self, meets girl, explores self kinda thingy. It's got Tom Waits in it :)
Juno: yeah it's recent but and endearing story of a young girl making it through her pregrnancy. Well written.
A Tale of Two Sisters (Janghwa, Hongryeon): Grab your pillow guard. Very spooky yet subtle South Korea horror. One of my all time favorite in this genre.
Re-Cycle (Gwai wik): Very original fantasy! Visually stunning and compelling story. A fine offering from Hong Kong.
Layer Cake: Dialogue and foobar'd situation heavy, about a British drug dealer (Daniel Craig) who longs to ditch his illegal trade.
i liked delicatessen pretty well....i still sometimes struggle with french films as they seem to appreicate setting the scene visually more than american films and for some reason that makes me feel that the plot lags just a bit.
i enjoyed wristcutters, but you can't really go wrong with tom waits.
i did not like juno. i don't know why. i think it's because i'm so pissed off that women that have popped out a kid wheter or not they re ready for it get a bunch of tax breaks i don't get. petty, i know. but i feel there should be some governmental reward for those of us that have chosen not to do so. i will def. check out the others if L can find them on down load. i asked him to get me the neverending story and it turns out older movies are harder to 'borrow' than newer movies from the ultra webs

Campy goofball horror flick.
Rock n Rolla was fun and just off the wall sometimes.
Finally, what about The Big Dirty?
Trailer park banditos. hehe
