Brother From Another Planet
Liquid Sky
The Cars That Ate Paris

ditto, but Videodrome is still my favorite film of his (with The Brood a close second)

i agree 100%.
actually got to see videodrome on the big screen last year at the music box massacre in chicago.

it was pretty incredible.

I think The Brood is Cronenberg's masterpiece, and highly recommend it.

for the best tough-guy cinema, you should see

The Steel Helmet
The Big Red One
The Wild Bunch
Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia
The Getaway (Steve McQeen, not the Alec Baldwin version)
The Great Escape
The Dirty Dozen
Stray Dog
High and Low
High Plains Drifter (1st western Eastwood directed is like a horror/revenge film)
Vantishing Point
Night of the Juggler

then the wierd shit
Blue Velvet
Wild at Heart
Little Otik
The Dark Backward
How to Get Ahead in Advertising
Withnail and I

If you like strange, surreal and experimental type films, I would also suggest these if you haven't seen them:

Maya Deren: Experimental Films (watch "Meshes on the Afternoon" & "At Land")
Un Chien Andalou
8 1/2
Perfect Blue
La Jetee
Dead End
Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me
Carnivale (HBO Series)
Freaks
Gantz (Anime Series)
The Machinist
Aeon Flux (Animated Series)

I can't believe I forgot

Cool Hand Luke!

I'm renting Blood for Dracula and Flesh for Frankenstein... anyone see these? They look incredibly campy and fun. And criterion, too.

you pretty much said it: campy and fun.

they're completely ridiculous, but i like them.

It's a shame not to see Flesh for Frankenstein in 3-D though.

Been wanting to see that for awhile now...might have to order the Criterion version somewhere. Looks really cool.

"To know life Otto, you have to fuck death... in the gall bladder! "

great drive-in double feature:D

unfortunately, criterion hasn't released it.
make sure you don't order one that claims to be criterion, cause you'll be getting ripped off.

there is a pretty great release of it here, though:

Well, that's good to know! I just saw it in the Criterion section on Deep Discount awhile back, and thus assumed that they'd released it...thanks for the heads up.
