Testament (1983)

It's a very depressing "What if" movie about nuclear war. It was made to be extra depressing in order to sway nations toward ending the nuclear arms race of the 80's. Oddly enough a very young Rebecca De Mornay and Kevin Costner have roles in the movie. First saw it on HBO when I was little and have never forgotten it.

The Pianist was an excellent movie, it was one of my favorite American movies.

I agree, you think it's well known?

The Toxic avenger and Bad Taste. I love low budget, cheesy gore movies.

One of my favourite movies that has pride of place in my collection is 'The mysterious geographical explorations of Jasper Morello'. To this day I have not met one person who has seen it.

Bad Taste


You legend. Peter Jackson's humble beginnings, a far cry from the epic LOTR trilogy.

I'm going to cite... Winners and Sinners. Now, this doesn't exactly count, because quite a few people have seen it, but most people on this forum haven't. It was the first Hong Kong kung-fu flick I ever saw, directed by Sammo Hung and co-starring Sammo Hung and Jackie Chan. It's a riot and I highly recommend it.

@LEGEND_beast

Well, it is but not in these circles as Strop said.

@Strop

I'll look into getting my hands on a copy. I'll tell you what I think.

I have a really good movie, sadly I can't remember the name...

So my favorite movie that few have seen is "The Island", it's an Si-Phi movie about an artificial Island that humans create to make clones, that rich and famous people pay for, for example if they have cancer it can get cure by taking organs from the clones and so on. But one clone suspects something, and one day he discovers the troth and escapes with a female clone. To stop this!

Well, speaking of pianists, I think the biopic of David Helfgott, Shine, wasn't half bad either.

In that section I want to point out the movie "Ip Man", which has been very popular in Asia where it was released, but was almost unheard of in Europe and (I believe) the States.

Hopefully, the sequel that was released this year will bring more attention to this amazing piece of cinema. It is, in the Martial arts related movie, my favorite by far.

Oooh, I watched that film. I enjoyed it. As for the sequel, I haven't been able to get my hands on that yet. Will do soon.

"In The Name of The King" Was pretty good. So was "The Last Legion". They are pretty cliche though...

I remember watching that movie. I want to watch it again, I haven't seen it since it came out on DVD.

I can't think of any movie I like that a few people have seen. I want to say 3:10 To Yuma, but I have a feeling a lot of people have seen it .
