I stole your title template @TehBamski@lemmy.world because i like it :)

I like the actresses and actors, especially John Cusack (who is just a fantastic actor in general) and Jack Black, who stands out in another role that just feels like it's made for him (the other being School of Rock).

The film also makes good use of its soundtrack and music in general and has some funny scenes, along with a simple but well paced main plot.

Yo me and my siblings like getting high and watching weird/low budget/knock off flims to make fun of.. preferably would like suggestions from tubi (as we have found quite a few already on there)

Some of our favorites: Cargo, Little Bite in the Big City

And planning to watch: Ivan the Incredible , The heros of color city

Edit - I don't know why the the imdb link is shown in french. I assure you this is not a french film.

Seems like a great time to revisit this classic. It's got Bud Cort, a great soundtrack, political commentary, and some familiar events.

It won the "Jury Prize" at Canne in 1970.

Just watch the original roadhouse.

I feel like everyone has had a movie partially spoiled by a trailer but I also feel like descriptions, movie posters, and even genre tags can be a give away and make a plot twist or scene less impactful.

One movie I vaguely remember watching without any context was the 2021 movie Oxygen. I enjoyed it but I feel like it would have been slightly more predictable if I had looked at the genre tags and that would have effected my enjoyment.

I feel like you need to have a pretty good sense of someone's tastes to make a "trust me"-style recommendation like this.

• Be careful, this is a very disturbing movie
• Make sure you watch the uncut version, some important scenes were cut from the first US release
• Steve Buscemi named this film one of his favorite, this movie inspired Quentin Tarantino to write Natural Born Killers. More about its legacy on wiki

It's a bit hard to describe but I felt like both had moments of spiraling confusion with the protagonist watching their worlds fall apart around them that I found really captivating.

I'm trying to think of other examples but The Fall and The Father are ones that came to mind. They are both fantastic films I'd highly recommend.

frefi@lemmy.dbzer0.com mentioned mother! (2017) which was the other example that was on the tip of my tongue.

Originally released as Wes Craven's New Nightmare in 1994, this movie was sort of a warmup in meta horror before Craven directed Scream two years later. It's arguably the best of the seven A Nightmare on Elm Street sequels and assumes a more serious, darker tone. If you're looking for that cheese established in the sequels (which Craven didn't direct, by the way), it ain't here.

Runtime: 1h 52m

imdb synopsis: A demonic force has chosen Freddy Krueger as its portal to the real world. Can Heather Langenkamp play the part of Nancy one last time and trap the evil trying to enter our world?
