Love Kyle McLaughlin's alien. I even have the Special Edition DVD. I must also confess a certain fondness for the highly flawed Lynch version of Dune, although I have to turn off the sound when Toto reaches full cry in the final reels.

5 Million Years to Earth (Quatermas & The Pit)

I liked The Arrival too, which was mentioned below.

Ferris Bueller's Day Off (City of Chicago, a place I love, is the real star.)

Less Than Zero - mainly for Downey and Spader.

The Hot Rock - I just love Donald Westlake's Dortmunder series so even this imperfect adaptation is a bit of fun for me - Redford is about as far from Westlake's schlubish hero as you can get, but maybe someone will make a couple of these books with Paul Giamatti for PBS' Mystery some day.

Air America - I have no idea why - maybe becaue the Viet Nam war was a touchstone of my teen years - but I tend to watch it if it's on cable.

There's more - I'd own up to them but I can't remember them at the moment.
