This movie is so hilarious! It's got it all, its British, its funny and scary. The scene where they are deciding which records to throw at the zombies is so amazing awesome!

The ultimate romantic comedy. Even though I never really manage to like Rock Hudson's slimeball character, the movie is darling. And Doris Day's wardrobe is fabulous.

Bringing Up Baby (Two-Disc Special Edition)

Description

Hepburn and Grant at their comedic best. The film is light-hearted and convoluted, but the entire cast is outstanding, particularly Hepburn as a clueless heiress trying to trap an unwilling, stodgy Grant into her life.

Did I mention the runaway leopard?

Zombie

First to recommend

Description

Technically titled "Zombi 2" in its native Italy, Fulci created this film as a direct response/sequel to Romero's "Night of the Living Dead." They bear very little resemblance to each other aside from the undead, but Fulci's film remains a hallmark of horror cinema. Featuring the shot every horrorphile knows as the "splinter" scene (not for those who hated BuÃ±uel's eyeball scene in "Un Chien Andalou"), as well as a zombie-shark underwater wrestling match, this is a must see for anyone interested in horror.

Stop Making Sense

Description

The best concert film ever made.

I was too young to have seen the Talking Heads in concert, but this film creatively captures the energy they were known for (in the commentary, bass player Tina Weymouth discusses playing until her fingers were bloody during gigs at CBGBs). As visually interesting as it is aurally arresting, this is what they mean when they call something a concert FILM.

Deep Red

First to recommend

Description

This film, along with "Susperia," comprise the ultimate in Italian director Dario Argento's films. Giallos are a specific genre featuring an unknown, black-gloved killer (nearly always of young, beautiful women), and "Deep Red" is no exception. Starring David Hemmings during the same period in which he filmed "Blow Up" with Antonioni, he plays an expat British jazz musician who is the only witness to a murder. He's left to his own devices (and those of a spunky female reporter, played by Argento's wife) to solve the crime before the killer strikes again.

Perhaps not the scariest film I've ever seen, but still visually stunning.

Dawn of the Dead (Ultimate Edition)

Description

Alpha and omega. This film is the beginning and end of the zombie film. Yes, he may have technically invented the zombie sub-genre in "Night of the Living Dead," but Romero hit his stride in "Dawn." It's long (2.5 hours), but still worth every minute, if only for the first time you see the zombies hulking aimlessly through a shopping mall.

28 Days Later (2003)

While there's some debate among zombie purist if those in the movie are actually "zombies" or just infected with some disease, this movie is a great look into the possibility and terror of abnormally fast zombies. Also shows you how the military shouldn't be your end all be all for salvation.

Great movie, great soundtrack. (via amazon)

I couldn't agree more - another Cohen Brothers classic. "It ties the room together man".

and PS - John Goodman should have one an award for his role - he's one of our greatest American character actors. (via johnpolinsky)

"Excuse me, ladies. You may remember me as the guy who came to dinner a few weeks ago with underwear on my head. My name is Keith Stat from Millburn, New Jersey. State bird, the mosquito. And as you may have heard, I am recently a crowned class B dungeon master. So if any of you would like to play D&D today, please speak now or forever hold your peace. Anyone? Alexa! Maybe you would like to join in? We do need a druid, and you have definitely cast a level 5 charm spell on me."
