Movies that hit you like a Sledgehammer(Fuck the Radar)

Ok - watched Poolhall Junkies. Christopher Walken was great. The ending was a bit too Holllywood.

That movie is awesome. Some of the acting isn't up to snuff, but if you like billiards at all, you owe it to yourself to watch it.

Plus, Walken tells a story.

Xiu Xiu: The Sent-Down Girl

The imagery in this film has stuck with me for years now.  I honestly do not think I've been more disturbed by a movie in my life.  I recommend it if you don't mind being emotionally scarred.

edit:  No, no I did not mean scared.  Fear my terrible spelling.

Did you mean to say scared ?

Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama is the movie that touched me in the most places.

Walken playing a likeable non-sociopathic character was nice. I liked his monologue about money as well.

The Black Hole.  Believe it.  First saw it two years ago.  I now hate most other movies.

Few more came to me - since I thread necro'd - Salvador, and Sorcerer. I keep meaning to watch Wages of Sin to see the original of Sorcerer.

Did I mention "Max" already?

(I know the thread was changed to "Fuck the Radar" but) That's probably the last flick that I didn't know anything about, and didn't expect to be so damn good. It's a fictional/theoretical story (but still probable and realistic) about Hitler "the painter and artist", and the things that lead him to become the Hitler of later years. The story revolves around 2 characters: John Cusack's "Max", a Jewish art gallery owner, and Noah Taylor's (who is absolutely amazing) young Hitler. Definitely worth checking out.
