An error has ocurred. Please try againWe used to take turns creating a shelf of each of the staff's "Top 100". The funnest part was how some customers liked my style, and some didn't - there will always be other lists.
In no particular order; Enjoy!
(a work in progress - if you like a film, see more from the same director, or same actors, and see where you end up!) (o yeah, and I ALWAYS went over 100... ;) )
With this list, it's not because they're ALL great movies or anything (some are), but because I must have just been having a good time, and feeling great, when I watched them!
PLEASE SUGGEST MORE IF YOU KNOW ANY! I'm trying to find some weird time-travel show - possibly relationship themed - from late-night Australian TV around the millennium... it was from America, or Canada... but it's a faint ghost...

V.I.P. (1998)
An Underrated Millennium Time-Capsule
Disappointed to see such a low audience rating; obviously most people are too uncultured to appreciate such a show that captures the very essence of the millennium and plays like a live-action superhero comic.
Full of chrome, rainbow leopard-print, cool cars and diversity before it was demanded, this cast represents the "Fox Force Five" that Tarantino could only imagine.
And for the more enlightened among us, Pam introduces us to "11:11" before 11:11 was a thing.
V. I. P. Is a really cool and fun show that documents the Y2K era, with a brainy female hacker character; scary tough women; a fun female character, and everything in between.
This show would have made a great comic, or a great comic would have made a great show; we are blessed with a great show.
Within (2005)
SO SCARY; MY TV KEPT TURNING OFF BY ITSELF!
True story.
This is one of the most memorable films I've ever seen; I think about if often, and always recommend it to people who Love a good, scary movie.
- the fact that my TV kept turning off the whole time, made it a most memorable and terrifying experience!
It starts out with a group of young, adventurous spelunkers, who share a few interesting esoteric tales around the fire before they go in... that really sets the tone for this visceral experience you're about to embark upon. The creative camera-work and the lighting make you feel like you're a part of that world: it's dark, it's claustrophobic, it's disorienting - it's disturbing.
Around the same time, THE DESCENT was released, and everyone told me I HAD to watch it; it was good, but THE CAVERN was better... more realistic; and reality is scarier than fiction...
