I have so many movies I haven't seen, and it's always hard for me to decide which to watch, so I thought a little recomendations post would be in order.

Yesterday I watched 'Death and the Maiden' and it was VERY good! Supsense filled movie in the same league as Tesis almost! Just don't expect and blood splurting chainsaws or yucky monsters...

Please post more, only don't put any of those 'so-bad-they're-good' movies. I can find those on own.. =)

i think due to the extreme amount of poor and sub-poor movies i watch on a daily basis, the lines between what i would consider a good movie, and ones that are pathetic pieces of maggot crawling feces, have becomed blurred.

but here are a few i think i like (at the moment)

-ones about the end of the world..
The 7th sign
virus(the one with chuck conners)

Haunted house movies-
Haunted
Ghost Story
The haunting (1963)
Bloody new year
The Changeling
http://imdb.com/Title?0080516

And Then There Were None
http://imdb.com/Title?0037515
Ten people are invited for a weekend on an island by a Mr U. N. Own, but he isn't on the island. At dinner a record is played, by that all the people are accused of murder, suddenly the first of them is dead, then the next... It seems to be that one of them is the murderer Mr. U. N. Own, but the person in suspect is always the person who is murdered next. At last only two people seem to be left.

Angel Heart
http://imdb.com/Title?0092563
Harry Angel has a new case, to find a man called Johnny Favourite. Except things aren't quite that simple, and Johnny doesn't want to be found. Let's just say that, amongst the period detail and beautiful scenery, it all gets really, really nasty.
Harry Angel is a private investigator. He is hired by a man who calls himself Louis Cyphre to track down a singer called Johnny Favorite. As he begins to investigate, all the people he contacts concerning Johnny are killed in mysterious ways. As he finds out more about himself and his client he discovers that he is fighting for his very existence and is forced to deal with the devil himself.


The Seventh Seal
its the one with the knight who returns from the crusades and plays death a game of chess.


most of the above i think are better than average movies.
