Your Favorite 'Under The Radar' Films

Had to add this one. Not sure how under the radar it is over there but I had never heard of it. Brilliantly written and completely hilarious.

I watched quarantine, which I quite liked but I think the original [REC] in Spanish is much better:

great russian movie, Brother:

I've seen most of the movies mentioned above. I've been watching 2-3 movies a day for the past 2 years.
Here are my top picks for Movies that have affected me the most, all my life.

Let the Right One In. (please watch Swedish version, and during Winter time)

The Good Life. (same as above, it has to be cool out or you won't enjoy it as much)

Mean Streets

Goodfellas was the movie Scorsese wanted to make back in 72 when he made Mean Streets, but Mean Streets has a visceral and grittiness to it that make it a must watch. (the trailer is a tad hokey and doesn't even begin to do the film justice).

Oh man...this film is fucking powerful. Probably the most depressing film I've ever seen and yet so well done, you can't help but wanna sit through the whole thing.

Everyone always talks about Irreversible or Requiem For a Dream as "movies that will mess you up."

But IMO, neither of them quite approaches the level of this film. If you liked either of the above, I advise you to check this one out.

Brother 2 is even better, though being born in USSR and understanding the Russian culture helps make the movie better. Was a sad day when the main star died, was sort of a hope of Russian cinematography...

One of my all time favorites.

Also, to add on the "The Game" recommendation, what an incredible movie!
