A Christmas Story
American Psycho
Donnie Darko
Starship Troopers

Starship Troopers is another for me as well. Tremors also, but the first movie wasn't exactly a masterpiece, but it was watchable.

'Highlander'
The film sequels were crap.
The TV series seems well regarded but I've never seen it.

reply

I can't believe I forgot that one. I did watch the other movies, but wish I didn't.

The series was really good.

reply

100%...GREAT CALL.

reply

OMG Highlander! How did I forget to include that on my list.

The series was indeed great.

reply

Prometheus, I didn't like the alien covenant

reply

Die Hard and the Crow are good answers.

I was thinking the Exorcist but part III wasn't bad, actually.

reply

DIE HARD II AND WITH A VENGEANCE ARE GOOD FLICKS....THE CROW SEQUELS ARE ALL TERRIBLE THOUGH.

reply

I don't remember much about II. I saw it once around when it came out. It couldn't have been that great or that bad.

With a Vengeance was OK, I guess. It had more of a cartoonish style of action. I liked Die Hard a lot, but for some reason I never really looked forward to sequels.
