1	Sunshine 2007, R) This movie is beyond great. A dying genre of humanism killed by hollywood budgets and scripts has been revitalized and reinvented. Paying homage to the greats like Alien and 2001!!
2	Army of Darkness 1993, R) Hail to the King of Zombie Movies!!
3	Battle Royale 3D 2001, Unrated) A 5 star classic for any budding Asian film buff
4	Dead Alive (Braindead) 1992, R) I kick-ass for the Lord. The Single best one liner EVEEERRRR!
5	The Monster Squad 1987, PG-13) Such a forgoted classic. "Wolfman has nads"
6	Children of Men 2006, R) Unbelievable brilliant and too the point. Dealing with the issues of immigration and pollution, while mocking the war on terrorism.
7	Zatôichi (The Blind Swordsman: Zatoichi) 2003, R) An Epic without all the hassle and hype. A good roots movie for Samurai lovers!!!
8	The Nightmare Before Christmas 1993, PG) I still sing the songs to myself!
9	Pi 1998, R) One of the last Golden movies of the 90's. Thankful that it has become a cult classic and not a Hollywoo bastardization.
10	O Brother, Where Art Thou? 2000, PG-13) I'm the damn paterfamilias!
11	Feast 2006, R) This is the king of Creature Features. This movie plays kudos to some of the best Genre horrors out there. Considering it came from the Project Greenlight contest, I give Kudos to the fans who made a movie for Fans.
12	The Descent 2005, R) This movie drew me in like no other movie has. I was suffering from claustrophobia for half of the movie, and the rest I was tense or revolted. The pace was well suited, all the little details were worked out and the girls worked well together. Fantastic!!
13	Grindhouse 2007, R) Rodriguez can make a real Zombie flick. I haven't seen a Zombie flick with this much fun and excitement since Shaun of the Dead and before that Army of Darkness. Planet Terror was enough for me, after that movie Death Proof paled in comparison. High caliber, strongly recommended and a good movie to tie you over until Machete comes out!
14	Kids 1995, NC-17) Being a Suburban boy, this movie was a shocking awakening to what life is really like nowadays.
15	Shaun of the Dead 2004, R)
16	Azumi 2003, Unrated)

96	Le Chaînon manquant (B.C. Rock) (The Missing Link) 1980, R)
97	Black Sheep 2006, R) The Lord Loves me, that fact that this movie was made, just shows someone is looking out for me. The move was ridiculously baaaaaddd ass good!!! The ZomCom genre is being reborn and I think this movie will really help to revitalize a genre that RULES!
98	The Graduate 1967, PG) no comment. Just watch it. A real love story and a movie that set a standard in film making.
99	Pathfinder 2007, R) SUPER COOL!!! Moon Bloodgood is STILL a hotty.
100	Transformers 2007, PG-13) Without a doubt this movie blew my ear drums, it was loud, it was fast and it was a homage to a 70's child that grew up on heavy doses of Saturday cartoons and METAL toys! The original Transformers we loved make up the cast and they come equip with 80's era transforming sounds. What more could you ask for? Well Stan Bush singing the theme song would have been nice. Get rid of the clown like transformer and give the characters real personality, not Michael Bay personalities. Still it is worth all the money I will pump into it over the next couple of years and will be a happy addition to my collection
101	Santa's Slay 2004, R) This movie is why I love the B genre. It wasn't all gore, but it had some great moments..and the one liners just make this movie excel.
102	The Blair Witch Project 1999, R) Loved it, it scared the shit out of me and left a lasting impression on me. Such innovation in movies is so hard to come by and even harder to relive.
103	Gabriel 2007, R) This movie has some of the best acting I have seen in such a long time. I was blown away by the atmosphere, the story and the pace of this movie. What's better is, this was a low budget-love of films movie. Not some franchise trying to sell us religious rethoric. I honestly cannot tell you how worth a viewing this movie is.
104	Into the Wild 2007, R) It was simply a beautiful portrayal of how life is beautiful when shared. But also how the anger and resentment that we grow up with, or feel everyday can control us and guide us into places we don't want to go, possibly even meet people with such passion and intensity; still we lose sight. This movie made me cry, it moved me, the people he met moved me. A truly brilliant movie and so easy to fall in love with Christopher despite his Serious, serious flaws as a human.
