Six String Samurai.
It's a post-apocalyptic road movie where the main character is a kung fu Buddy Holly.

I've seen The Orphanage and loved it. I've also seen the Orphan which wasn't as good.
I know some weird film but I wouldn't say any of them were not really well now.
One might be The Host. This completely awesome Korean Monster Movie that is both funny and has great dramatic story.
I've also seen Man Hunter which is what some people actually consider the first all though in direct Hannibal Lector Film. It has the actor who played Grissom on CSI and he is looking for a serial killer who is copying Hannibal Lector, so he visits him in prison. The actor is different but it's pretty good.
I've also seen The Killer Shrews this really bad and really old monster movie that has both really boring story and really bad costumes in that the monster are dogs wearing shag carpets and fake dentures. In one shot even you see the dog wagging it's tail while sitting behind a bush. Another film made by the same director is The Giant Gila Monster.
A small time film that my dad and his friends made but you can buy for a real cheap price is Space Zombie Bingo which is pretty fun.

I liked it. I like the sappy endings and thought it was pretty strong.AjimboB said:
Having it all be in the main character's mind typically is never strong, but I feel like it worked very well in that movie
The most underrated that I've seen is Waltz with Bashir. I would like to discuss it with other people, but no one I know has seen it. I loved the animation and there were more than a few really memorable scenes.
Pan's Labyrinth too. I feel like many of my friends don't really look at foreign films with the same excitement that I do. (Note: I think that more than a few people on this site have seen this one, but I'm considering this more in terms with the people that I personally know.)
EDIT: The Ghost Writer, previously released this year. While everyone I knew watched new mainstream releases, I checked this out based on critics' reviews and I loved every minute of it. This is probably my favorite movie of the year so far.

The fact that I was ninja'd means that my post would be a lie. Love that film.Echer123 said:
Okay then...Y tu mama tambien?
I put that on my Netflix queue as soon as I saw it was on DVD... still haven't got it yet, but my Netflix queue is insanely long and I'm just now getting movies I put on there months ago. The director of Napoleon Dynamite + Jemaine Clement is an amazing combo. How was it, by the way?zHellas said:
You must live in a pretty boring place if no one has even heard of that movie.MortisLegio said:
For me? The Baader Meinhof Complex (recent German film about the Red Army Faction and a thought provoking view into the minds of terrorists), Pandora's Box (foreign silent film from the 20's... featured one of the world's first flappers so I guess there's a bit of history behind it), Fido (less obscure, but I'm just hoping someone will say "Oh, I've seen that movie!" so I can add them as a friend because if you have you are amazing.), Whatever Works (or any Woody Allen movie, for that matter. Kids these days just don't appreciate Woody Allen like they should), and Adam (excellent indie drama that was so much better than Paper Heart which got more publicity than it needed to). I have a bunch that the people I know in real life haven't seen, but the Escapist is probably more familiar with such as Everything is Illuminated, Traitor (such and underrated movie), and Fantastic Mr. Fox.
I've seen all of Jarmusch's films including the ones he's been in as an actor, and a Jarmusch film with Screaming Jay Hawkins? Colour me there.madcap2112 said:
Ditto Peter Sellers, and Alec Guinness.
I doubt many have seen Branded to Kill, though I know Jarmusch has.
I'd be pretty secure in saying that not many on the Escapist would have seen Two Lane Blacktop.
Hell, I bet no-one here has seen Being There, Network or The Big Red One.
