cool but not popular: movies you'd recommend, that not many know of

[Bjord]

here's a bunch,
if you wanna get better experience dont watch the trailers, just look at the name

My friend was starring in this movie, he's a lot older now but in the trailer, it's the kid that flicks his finger on the blonde kid's nose.

Haven't seen it yet, though. Supposedly, it was an international success - but not a national. In other words, that's a Swedish movie.

Lots and lots of ears ago i saw a very strange movie that impressed me. The only few things that the film was very long ona, and that the guy hav lots of problems during the film always running and avoiding confliscts. In a moment hi find a farm with friendly people who try to convert him in a pig 
I tell this here because it has been lots of years that i want to find some info about that movie and maybe as this forum is so full of freaks somebody can help me.

Also I have a nice one to share : http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118736/

In what may be an unprecedented move, the producer of this film, Eric D. Wilkinson, has publicly thanked users of BitTorrent who have distributed the movie without express permission, saying that it has lifted the profile of this product far beyond the financier's expectations, while encouraging fans to purchase the DVD or donate.

Rampage
Crime Drama Thriller

Not widely reviewed, Rampage received mixed response, and was noted by Bloody Disgusting for director Uwe Boll's "evolution" in style, "almost as if the German Ed Wood has taken a deep look into the mirror, reflected on his films, and made a turn for the better". In contrast Variety called it "uncompromising and nearly unwatchable (as much for its subject as for its nauseating visual style)".

Next Day Air
Action Comedy Crime

The film opened at #6 on its opening weekend, behind Star Trek, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Ghosts of Girlfriends Past, Obsessed, and 17 Again with approximately $4 million in revenue. Next Day Air steadily declined in the box office during its eight week run. The film grossed $10,027,047 ranking it 111 in films released in 2009.

It's a nice movie. Haven't they done also Hollywood version of it? Probably not as good as the original.

Primer

It's like an indie, more confusing version of Inception.

EDIT:

These come to mind immediately; some are critically acclaimed, but most were not successful movies. Primer is an especially interesting independent science fiction film oozing with vision.

Donnie Darko is like one of the most popular movies ever. Also.. you shouldn't speak of the sequel. Ever.

I must recommend Der leben der anderen or Lives of others to anyone who hasnt sseen it, its about a Stasi guy , who gets in too deep with the people hes spying on.
