[Deliverance6]

the best movies of all time in my opinion

#1 for me is definately DELLAMORTE DELLAMORE.....its U.S. release name was "CEMETARY MAN".....most tragic movie ever....

#2 for me is the movie RAVENOUS......this movie hits me really hard.......I can just relate to it in alot of ways.....not your typical cannibal movie....

#3 is THE SEVENTH SEAL by ingmar bergman.....especially for its time it is quite a powerful movie.....

#4 is called KILLER.......it is a true story about serial killer Carl Panzram.....I just think his story is really good...maybe a bit GG Allinesque....James Woods plays Carl.....well done for a true story serial killer movie....

#5 is called BREAKING THE WAVES.......another incredible story of self punishment and tragidy....

HAPPINESS is a fucked up movie
GUMMO is a fucked up movie
KIDS is a fucked up movie
THE MACHINIST is a fucked up movie

other than those I guess I enjoy all the usual people movies too.....War of the Worlds was great I thought...LOTR....etc.

omg ive been looking for Gummo since forever, the soundtrack is quite impressive eh?
kids yeah fucked u big time, which actually reminds me big time of bully... i believe is the same director, plus bully is based on a true story and micheal pitt is in ti wee
The machinist i watched it, but ironically i watched during a month i was so sleep depraved that i passed out several times during it so i lost the concept of what it is about.
well, as everyone knows...(not really)... im a Stephen King fan, so anything with his name on it will surely be one of may faves, call it carrie, dream catcher, the shinning (both kubricks and kings version) the dark half, pet cementery, Kingdom hospital (which i believe is a ripoff of some Danish series by Von Lars some shit known director) and a huge list that may include the cheesiest weirdo movies and tv series that SK does.
Dancer in the dark (awesome tear jerking movie)
Pay foward (lol im a freak)
kill bill, yay for Tarantino
Mighty Afrodite (sp?) hee hee its such a weird movie...
Donnie darko (yeah...Dustruction IS a way of creation)
Headwig and the Angry Inch... bestest soundtrack ever!
The virgin suicides...another movie that by the end u dont know what to feel.
Clock work orange <3
Ichi the killer, hee he so fucking screwed up that makes no sense... and pieces of the guinea pig series i've seen... so hard to get it
oh man thats just to name few.. but i am a cinephile
oh i watched a movie called the descent and i would recomend it it might be silly, but ir kicks ass
