"Manhunter". creeped me out as a teenager just watched it again. still creeps me out but a damb good movie.

Brian Cox could never be as Hannibal as Anthony Hopkins, but he can legitimately claim to be the original. And Gus Grissom as Will Graham? Awexome!

I nominate The Score with De Niro, Norton and Brando.

Ravenous

Kalifornia

I left my DVD copy of Ravenous at my parents house after I recently moved out and when I went back for dinner one night my parents were like, "what the hell was that one DVD you left here?  It was something about guys on the frontier..."  Me- "oh yeah, Ravenous!  That's awesome, like when David Arquette was like 'He was liiiicking me!!!' I loved that"   At that point everyone, including my gf, just stared at me.  Apparently they're not as big of fans.  They also didn't have the same appreciation that I did for the struggle that I had in getting the dvd, it was a huge PITA when I got it, couldn't find it anywhere.

ah

forgot

Eraserhead.

Drop a hit of acid and watch it..  Just don't do it because I said so.   

Bad Lieutenant- Harvey Keitel as a corrupt coke smoking cop. Good stuff.

His Girl Friday (early Cary Grant film, excellent)
Nobody's Fool with Paul Newman
12 Monkeys (best Brad Pitt acting up until Snatch)
Life is Beautiful

Me, Myself and Irene is another that isn't fully appreciated.

Couldn't be a truer or funnier scene than this one.  I laugh out loud everytime it's on.

Some mentioned, some not... not all great cinema, but good to watch 

The Fifth Element Mila Jovovich-  'nuff said

Screamers Autonomous Mobile Swords 

Basic Travolta and Samuel L. in absolute badassness...

The Andromeda Strain great sci-fi with political commentary...

Better Off Dead one of the better Cusack comedies

Grosse Pointe Blank another good Cusack movie

Anyone mentioned Training Day, yet?

Does that count as a sleeper?  That was a pretty big release.

But still a good flick

Couple more:

Eastern Promises - (old Ural moto in it)
Criss Cross - great old noir film

Great flick, if a bit dark and gritty.

Some greats already mentioned, I like Unbearable Lightness of Being, Blue Velvet, Lost in Translation. On a lighter note, Freeway - " you gonna do sex to me Bob?, or UHF- shows the origin of "Kramer", or Heathers or Rushmore.
