Default Movies That Not too Many People Know About

I'll start this pig off...

Green Street Hooligans
-Directed by: Lexi Alexander
-Stars Elijah Wood and a No name from the UK

This movie is one of the best i have seen in a very long time. if you ever see it for rent or cheap at any store pick it up and you will not be sorry.

To keep it english, I'd like to throw in Mean Machine. It stars Vinnie Jones, (mutha****in Big Chris) as a soccer player that get sent to prison for some plot device or another and while there starts a team that plays the guards. To basically The longest yard redux. But hey it a good story with some nice action and a fun way to spent 2 hours.

Proof - Hugo Weaving as a blind guy that takes photos and get one of his friends (Russell Crowe) to tell him if what he sees in the photo is what he was told was there.

Malcolm - Introverted gadget/tram geek help a guy rob a bank.

Both Aussie movies from the 80's (early 90's?). Both good. Occassionally see them on cable in the US.

I loved that movie. I added everything Elijah did to my Blockbuster Q.

Ash Wednesday is another one with Elijah Wood that is in a similar vein, and it has Ed Burns (under appreciated) in it.

Reefer Madness: The Movie Musical. Thought it was fantastic for a Showtime picture. Hell I thought it was fantastic for ANY picture. Plus it has Veronica Mars, Nightcrawler, and that dude from Wings which just adds to the fun.

Gay By Dawn and Kickin' come to mind too.
