Okay, okay, a few of these have been on cable, but you might have skipped over them. Besides, it's always worth seeing a movie uncut and without commercials.
The films on this list are not necessarily among my all-time favorites (PERFECTLY NORMAL and THE HIT *do* fall into that category). They're simply ones I enjoyed and which seem to be little-seen.
Also, some of these are extremely hard to find in most video stores -- especially when a monopolistic giant like Lackluster has so little imagination...
If you've seen *all* of these movies AND you enjoyed them, we should talk...
