Lucia y el sexo (very intriguing!)
Fabuleux destin d'Amelie Poulain (very moving!)
Spun (a movie about drugs like requiem for a dream; also with bizzarre filming edits; very nice)
Girl Next Door (a very lightweighted teen movie but I felt connected with it being in a romantic mood)

I highly recommend all of them![/quote

I'm downloading "Spun" at the moment, you made me curious. :wink:
I have "Spun" on my hard-disc, i'll look at it tommorow and let you know if i like it. :wink:
I just have seen Spun and yr right it's about drugs, and very bizzarre filming and i do like it, but i don't see the comparison with Requiem For A Dream sorry. :wink:

I just downloaded: Begotten from E. Elias Merhige [1991] a black and white movie with no sound. It's horror and fantasy! For those who like experimental movies. 8)

You should look at " Baise Moi ". It could be a strickingly effective public service announcement against the dangers of casual sex if it weren't for the fact that the 2 women Manu and Nadine like to murder strangers, male and female, indiscriminately even if no sex is involved. "Baise Moi" is a combination of porn and heavy violence from the year 2000, a real shocker. :wink:
Well I saw 'Baise Moi' last night and was a tad dissapointed... It felt really amateurish compared to a masterpiece of shock like 'Irreversible'. It lacked a vital element of surreality; I need more than just female gun violence and penetration shots to keep me interested.

Hey D4VER, have you seen a film called 'Pink Flamingos'? I've heard someone eats dogshit in the film and thus I MUST see it!

I saw Silent Hill last night. It was ok I guess, pretty cool special effects but it seemed to drag on after a while being like 2 and a half hours long. I never played the video game (not much of a gamer anymore) so it took me a little while to grasp what was going on. There's some really creepy, nightmarish scenes though. The soundtrack was probably the best part, it was like ambient/industrial soundscapes. Does anyone know who did the music for this?

Eraserhead is one of David Lynch best films ever, don't forget the superb soundtrack. 8)

john the baptist is my next door neighbour. and mother superior is my dealer. watched final fastasy VII : advent children the other day, certainly not life changing, but a great film none the less.
