Default Re: obscure MUST SEE movies

I think many people under 25 are not nearly as familiar with
Harold and Maude as they were in my little 'mini-generation' and older.
I'm 36, graduated high-school in 89, and most people I was friends with in high-school or college had seen this film and many considered it their all-time favorite.

So I don't think it should count as obscure either but maybe it actually has made it to obscure status by now.

Harold and Maude is a wonderful film and the Cat Stevens soundtrack adds a lot to it too.


Highway 61 (1991) is my obscure movie pick for the day.
Up-tight guy and hip-ster woman make road-trip from Canada to New Orleans with corpse/coffin on top of their car all-the-while being chased by a guy who thinks he's Satan who stops off at churches to play bingo to fund his trip.
Hunting live chickens with hand-guns in big mansion while Tom Jones "It's Not Unusual" is cranked-up is the scene that cracks me up the most.
Black humour that isn't for everyone but I couldn't stop laughing.
