It's a film that rewards the 'Film Noir' fan as it splices clips from old black and white film noir into it's own narrative. I can't believe I forgot this. Anyone else seen it? Steve Martin's best!

Also need to add UHF. Early Fran Drescher, and Michael Richards before Kramer. My gut hurt for days. Fell out of the cinema seat several times, also noticed others had done the same. Stanley Spudowski FTW.

Thank you, PizmoBeach, for the heads-up on the Zatoichi films!
Hulu appears to have almost all the ones pre-1970.
(I'd post the link, but this board does funky things with Hulu URLs!)
And I really loved Blind Fury!

Thanks, Kwicko, for alerting me to Lucky Number Slevin, and FYI your other pick, the Andre Braugher Thief, is also on Hulu.

Some of my favorite little-knowns:

• Le Mans [1971]
• Buckaroo Banzai [1984]
• Manhunter [1986]
• Grand Canyon [1991]
• The Hunted [1995]
• Crossworlds [1997]
• Kiss Kiss Bang Bang [2005]
• Appaloosa [2008]

A movie I watched a few months ago that not many seem to know of is a strange cult sci-fi movie from 1984 called Buckaroo Banzai: Across the 8th Dimension... the name is a mouthful and the movie is bizarre but I absolutely loved it.

Well the movie does have some popularity, with few fan sites, but it still is very underrated and retains its cult status to this day. I heard Big Trouble in Little China was supposedly intended to originally be a sequel to Buckaroo Banzai, would you know anything about that?
