The more I watch this the more manipulative it feels to me. That said, there is nothing like watching it the first time and the cinematography and direction are incredible.

Hunger. The most amazing film I've seen in long, long, long, time.

Z by Costa-Gavras from 1969 - absolutely brilliant film.

Tremors, maybe? Definitely underrated where I live, maybe less so in the US...

Hard Eight (early Paul Thomas Anderson with Gwyneth Paltrow)

Nine Queens - excellent Argentinian movie about a group of con-men in Buenos Aires

One True Thing

Hamlet - the Branagh version

This is England

You Can Count on Me (I'm a big fan of both Laura Linney and Mark Ruffalo)

Respiro (Italian movie with Valeria Golino; set on the island of Lampedusa)

In My Father's Den

Julia (fantastic Tilda Swinton)

The Deep End (again Tilda Swinton)

Separate Lies (VERY good British drama/thriller!)

Christie Malry's Own Double-Entry

La veuve de St Pierre (and Ne le dis a personne and L'adversaire and a ton of other French-language movies starring Daniel Auteuil)

American Splendor

The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada (Tommy-Lee-Jones-directed)

Sweet Sixteen

The Shape of Things and Possession (both Neil LaBute)

And a few that are not at all unknown, but way underrated:

Bringing Out the Dead
Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow(!!)
Nurse Betty

 

[Steve Smith]

Flame and Citron.

Danish film from 2008 about resistance fighters in WWII.

 

[Lighthouse]

Laserblast.

http://www.imdb.com/video/screenplay/vi2204368921/

actually there is an annoying ad before the teaser, but trust me it is a great movie

Clint Eastwood in The Eiger Sanction.... ridiculously awesome
