Clark, did you sleep through the Donnie Darko blitz?Call them art, cult, under the radar, indy, critic fave, under-appreciated, lesser known...OK.
But to be obsure to me is to not have had a theatrical US release (or only a very short run) and not be readily available in a North American video format (VHS or DVD)and not necessarily critiacally acclaimed. Is a film that's been much written about truly obscurer?
I saw every one of these in the theater in a Midwestern American City. (OK, I admit I saw Wicker Man at a drive-in.)
OTOH, it's good to see you mention these flicks.
