The Blues Brothers
Batman I & II
Beetlejuice
Amelie
Mulholland Falls
Hudson Hawk
Red Dawn
Fear and loathing in las vegas
So I Married An Axe Murderer
The Machinist
Time Bandits
Glengarry Glen Ross
The Sting
Blazing Saddles
Das Boot
Star Wars
Spanish Prisoner
Young Frankenstein
Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels
 
The first really obscure movie to be mentioned here:

The Lost Skeleton of Cadavera

I'll just say that if you have a sense of humor, you'll like it. If not, you'll hate yourself for wasting your time.
 
Boondock Saints was obscure when I saw it the first time. It's not obscure now.

Any of you seen Poolhall Junkies? I thought it was good and call it obscure because I'd say that if I did a random poll 95% of the people would have no idea wtf I am askin them.

Those in bold I've never even heard of, so some of them are obscure to me. I think you also missed that someone a few above you mentioned Snatch, which is also by no means an obscure movie


As far as my favorite obscure movie, that's pretty hard. Equilibrium, which is my favorite movie, was pretty obscure when I first saw it, now it's getting alot of recognition but there's still alot of people I know of who had never heard of it until I made them watch it.

I'll vote for Dead Alive, a very early, very bad Peter Jackson film.
 
I also have to vote for the Dark Crystal as one of my fav obscure films.

Evil Muppets at their best - such an incredible film.. think it took them like 7 yrs to make.

Maybe he just watches A LOT of movies.

 
The OP need to define obscure for these people. 99% of the movies people in here are calling obscure are mainstream hollywood stuff.
