The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then The Bigfoot.
Dumbest movie title ever, but the best thing I've ever seen Sam Elliott do.

Triangle looks like a generic "slasher on a ship" horror movie at first, but is actually a lot more twisted and clever than that. >!It's actually about a time loop.!<

Battleship.
Yeah, the movie based off the board(?) game.
Feel free to fire up the torches and start handing out the pitchforks, because I'm not playing by the rules.
It doesn't just look like it will suck, it looks like a 'so bad it is bad' type of movie, an overbudgeted 'this is what is wrong with movies these days' sort of unmitigated hot wet trash from a dumpster fire in the bad part of town.
It isn't well written.
It isn't well acted.
I honestly can't even promise a good time.
These are the thoughts that went through my mind when I read about it before watching: "This is going to be awful and a waste of my time. These actor names kinda look familiar but I don't know who any of these people are. Is Rihanna her first name or last name? Isn't she just a singer. It better not have that stupid umbrella song. Wait, Liam Neeson is in this? Is he doing okay? Did he lose a bet? Does he need money? I bet that evil Jar'jar forced him to to do this. Wait, running time over 2 hours?! How is that even... the board never took more than like 15 minutes... except cheaters moving their... fuck me, I already need a drink."
Go into the movie with that mindset. Be angry at it before it starts.

ink. looks cheap and weird but has a huge heart and vision.
Teknolust (2002)
CW: y2k aesthetic, Tilda Swinton in multiple roles.
Do not read wikipedia's synopsis of it first unless you want to spoil it. you can find it here on archive.org.
The Ice Pirates.
Ron Perlman and one of the funniest fight scenes from the 80s.
I'm going to have to make a list of the movies recommended here that I want to watch. Lots of interesting picks. Cool idea for a post.
A few that come to mind
2022 - Lovecraftian Horror/Dark Comedy/Fantasy - Glorious
2019 - Mystery/Horror/Thriller/- The Colour Out Of Space (or Color Out Of Space)
2015 - Action/Violence/Scifi - Hardcore Henry
2010 - Action/Violence - Machete
2010 - Action/Comedy/Romance - Scott Pilgrim Vs The World
2009 - Zombie Horror/Dark Comedy - George: A Zombie Intervention (or George's Intervention)
2009 - Adventure/Fantasy/Scifi - Ink
1999 - Adventure/Comedy/Fantasy - Dogma
1997 - Action/Adventure/Scifi - The Game
All were really good movies that I myself initially passed over (numerous times even) before coming back a while later to be blown away on the first watch. Most of these I ordered on dvd as the credits were still rolling. I can list some more if you like any of these.
I watched Running Scared with Paul Walker at like 3am probably over fifteen years ago. I thought it was brilliant, really dark but fun.
Black Bullet?
