Silver Linings Playbook
Your boyfriend Bradley Cooper and your girlfriend Jennifer Lawrence work through their craziness. And not cute craziness either.
Let the Right One In
Swedish vampires don't screw around. This is a terrifying film — and no one even puts together Ikea furniture in it.
Death at a Funeral
It's a tossup between this and the American remake, but the dryness of the original British version serves the material better.
The Cabin in the Woods
Funny horror! Scary hilarity! All that and more in the titular cabin in the woods!
Being John Malkovich
One of the weirdest movies ever made, but its weirdness is directly proportional to its greatness. Also, it has puppets.
Blue Valentine
Ryan Gosling and Michelle Williams are definitely sad and maybe in love. A tough, but incredible watch.

Shaun of the Dead
Ugh, I'm done with zombies. — You. And yet you WILL watch this movie and you WILL laugh. It's a guarantee.
Adventureland
The life and times of amusement park employees, featuring Jesse Eisenberg and a non-catatonic Kristen Stewart.
Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan
Arguably the greatest film of all time featuring a shirtless Ricardo Montalbán and a bewigged William Shatner.
A History of Violence
We are shocked, SHOCKED that Viggo Mortensen could play a weirdo creeper with a past. We are also shocked that David Cronenberg could direct such a thing.

The Sessions
Helen Hunt and John Hawkes negotiate the world of sex and disability in this affecting 2012 indie drama.
Made in Dagenham
Sally Hawkins is always charming. Dress her up in Biba and she's doubly so. As a 1960's factory worker fighting for equal pay, she's basically the best.
Source Code
Duncan Jones directs Jake Gyllenhaal as a sort-of time-traveling marine in this follow-up to 2009's Moon. It's weird and cool — just like Jones' dad, David Bowie.
Melancholia
Lars von Trier (aka The King of Bleak) basically tells us all to calm down. It's just the end of the world.
Attack the Block
Joe Cornish's sci-fi surprise should have gotten more exposure than it did. It's uniquely funny, often terrifying, and has a soundtrack by Basement Jaxx.
Room 237
Stanley Kubrick's The Shining has spawned many weird theories. This documentary will tell you just how many and just how weird they are.
