Umm... Guy, those are all classics. And only the first one and second last haven't been remade. (Originals still the best). Hell, I know a lot of people that have seen them.

You've obviously never read any other movie poll on this site. Damn near everyone and his brother has seen these movies!
I've been wanting to see
Remo Williams ever since I saw it reviewed on
badmovies.org! Very happy it's been rerelased on DVD.
Equilibrium, definetly!! A little thin on plot, but still a wicked action movie. Very cool fight sequences, especially the few at the end. Highly underrated and underpromoted.
*High-fives Kaervak* My man! Finally, someone else who agrees Ginger Snaps rocks! What did you think of the remake of Night of the Living Dead? I liked that ending much better.
*Smacks hypersonic5 upside the head* Hardware?! That movie was SOOOOO Gawd-
awful it's not even funny!!! The innitial idea was interesting, but the execution, acting, sets, and overall movie were utterly horrid!
*Retch*
The Tremors series, especially movies 2 and 3, is also true for obscure movies. Not the craziest about the series, and am annoyed I missed the finalie. :frown:
For my own unique selections:
Six-String Samurai is a great, totally obscure one. Just saw that a little while ago. 60s rock and roll combined with Honk Kong sword fights. Gotta love a movie where a Buddy Holly look-alike takes out the last remnents of the Russian army with just a homemade katana. And where Death comes complete with his own heavy metal band.
Tron. Many have heard of it, few have seen it. A nifty movie, no question. Very cool to see pioneering computer FX.
Trancers. I'm a big B-movie fan, and Full Moon provided lots of great stuff before folding. Tim Thomerson as a man from the future sent to the 80s to kill time traveling vampires
