Since no one has mentioned them yet, I'll throw in these two movies.

Frailty

Valhalla Rising

Both have interesting storylines.

one of the most f***ed up "shock value" movies I recall renting from Tower Records in the early 1980's.

This one is an obscure one and may be hard to find, but if you can track it down do yourself a favor and watch WAKE IN FRIGHT. 70s Australian movie set in the outback. A school teacher on his way to the big city for vacation gets stranded in the "Yabba" when his train breaks down. From there he gets into it with locals and eventually is nearly driven mad by how harsh the people and land is in the outback. There is a classic and controversial scene where the director films an actual Kangaroo hunt to demonstrate how barbaric the pastime was.

A couple more flix worth a shot, Lock Stock and Both Smoking Barrels, The Boondock Saints, House of Games.

A couple of under appreciated Netflix gems are:

1) Odd Thomas. A lawsuit twarted its wide release, but it has big stars and big effects. You are possibly familiar with the book by Dean Koontz

2) Dale and Tucker vs. Evil. Just your typical buddy movie love story slasher film adventure comedy.
