are there any movies that you like that you're certain that the only people who have seen it are you and the people who made it?

 

it's just funny when you refer to a movie and people have no clue about it. even if the reference is saying how terrible it is.

 

i have a few. i'll name them after i see a few from you lovely folks.

Here's two old made-for-TV movies I loved. Not a lot of people have seen them, but each has a cult following of sorts, judging from talk on the Net.

 

The Jericho Mile, starring Peter Strauss and Brian Dennehy, directed by Michael Mann. Strauss is Larry "Lickety Split" Murphy, an inmate serving a life sentence who spends his prison time running around a makeshift track in the Folsom Prison yard. When authorities discover Murphy is actually running a mile in near-record time, efforts are made to get him qualified for the Olympics and allowed to compete. Great prison movie, but dated; everyone talks in 1970s jive, including drug-dealer Dennehy.

Dreams Don't Die, 1982, starring Ike Eisenmann (he played Tony in the original Witch Mountain movies, see photo below). Seventeen-year-old Danny Baker lives in a deadend neighborhood in a shitty NYC borough, the kind of place where kids have no future. By night, Danny is tagging subway cars as the notorious "King 65," a prolific and talented grafitti artist. With encouragement from a sympathetic cop, Danny begins to dream of a better life in Manhattan as a paid commercial artist, drawing and painting within the law. First, though, he has a score to settle with the murderer of his friend and mentor. People are still crying on the Internet for this film's video release; I own a bootleg VHS with low audio volume. You can watch the whole thing on YouTube.

Rhinestone

Best bad movie ever. Troll 2 can suck it! tongue.gif Stallone singing country...nuff said.

yeah i thought someone might have seen this one, since it's Dolly and Sly, but yeah, it's pretty terrible. my friend actually showed it to me.

 

 

a good way to find weird movies is to check out movie on demand on your cable. that's how i found a lot of the weird horror movies i like.

The Silent Partner with Christopher Plummer and Eliott Gould, 1978. Saw this in the theater. This thriller continues to fly under the radar.

You reminded me of one of my favorite sleepers, an Ira Levin thriller with a hundred plot twists called Deathtrap. It starred Michael Caine, Dyan Cannon, and Christopher Reeve, playing a gay playwright in one of his first post-Superman roles. It was released in 1982; I saw it in the theater and own it on DVD.

Master of Disguise with Dana Carvey.

Truly, embarrassingly bad.

Neighbors gave it to me to watch, saying "This is really funny". My family and I kept looking at each other wondering when funny would happen.

 

Awful movie.

I remember this one. Strauss was at the top of his game in those days. Great story.
