1. Dellamorte Dellamore (Of Love and Death)
It's an Italian movie. It's a horror/romance flick about a cemetery caretaker, played by Rupert Everett in his only memorable role, who not only buries the dead, but has to bury them again when they somehow return from the dead. Along the course of the movie he falls in love with three girls, all played by the talented Anna Falchi, and loses all three. It's a really good film. It's avaialable in America unde the title of "Cemetery Man" because Fox couldn't market it correctly -_-. I have the Italian DVD, and even though people say the American release is cut, it's not. THey only thing that differs is the American release has shorter opening credits. All the gore is still there. Though the Italian dub is awesome, especially it's interpetation of the prayer at the end.
2. Boondock Saints
A reletivly unheard of movie until it's video release. It's about two brothers who after killing two Russian mob members in self defense, have a vision from God to kill all evil people and protect the good. Willam Dafoe steals the show though, playing a gay detective who's a little whacko. And the character Rocko is so funny. Pretty good flick about vigilante justice, which is always an issue coming up.
I actually wrote a term paper on this movie, comparing characters of the film to Biblical characters and sent a copy to the director who loved it
I am eagerly awaiting the sequel to this film.
3. Tombstone
THE cowboy movie. Featuring Val Kilmer's best performance as the memorable Doc Holiday, who if I wasn't told, I would've never know that was Kilmer! He definetly steals the show from lead Kurt Russel as Wyatt Earp. Some of the most memorable lines (I'm your huckleberry) and some of the best action. The gunfights are great, too. Definetly much better then the piece of crap version that Kevin Costner made.
These are my three favorites. I never grow tired of watching them
