A simple tale of the Ulam tribe's quest to replace the life-sustaining flame that's been nicked from them by another bunch of marauding Paleolithics. A fascinating look at the trials of life 80,000 years ago, with extraordinary performances and some gruesome violence. find out more...

A Trenchtown variant on Robin Hood with Rasta drummer Horsemouth taking on the local minor league Mafia - but that's not what this cult Jamaican classic's about. It's Rastas, ganja and reggae, and it's still cool after all these years.

So the ridiculous Jeri and her underutilized libido hit the halls, looking for fresh meat and navigating the hell that is Flatpoint High School, a place not short of racial and sexual innue find out more...

Reggae legend Jimmy Cliff more than holds his own in this now cult-classic. Jamaican country boy Ivan travels to Kingston with dreams of becoming a big recording star, but his naive optimism is gradually destroyed by the web of corruption he finds there. Great story and a stonking soundtrack. find out more...

Definitely THE film of 1995, with the added bonus of bearing up to repeated viewing even when you know the final twist. A tightly scripted, complex and compelling whodunnit which slowly unpeels layer upon layer to reveal the truth behind the opening carnage, and in which nothing is as it seems. find out more...

An inspired and brilliant mockumentary recounting the history of a crap British heavy metal group and following them on a disastrous tour of the US. This movie takes apart every cliche that ever graced a rock documentary and every vanity or folly to haunt overblown rock groups. So realistic that American audiences thought the band was real... Voted third funniest film by Observer readers in a 2007 poll. find out more...
