Much imitated but never equalled, this is the definitive space nightmare. The crew of a commercial spacecraft are stalked by a stowaway, mutating monster of veracious appetite. Weaver puts in a splendidly believable performance as the resourceful Ripley. Taut script and awesome special FX.

Harvey Pekar lives the life most of us dream of avoiding, a filing clerk by day, a man at odds with, and lost in, the world he inhabits the other sixteen hours. Harvey begins to write down his disgruntled observations and with the help of equally cantankerous illustrator, Harry Crumb, ‘American Splendor' is born. This movie of the man's life is an inspired mixture of animation, documentary and dramatisation, with Paul Giamatti finally getting a role worth his talent. Funny, sad, sharp and hip to

Sent back in time Marty McFly accidently changes a small bit of history, the bit where his mum and dad fall in love. To get himself born Marty has to make sure they get hitched, no easy job as his mother's fallen for him! Great comic fantasy with heavy Freudian sub-plot. This one MUST be seen first.

A frustrated, highly strung, spectacularly unsuccessful puppeteer inadvertently finds a passage way into the mind of John Malkovich and, uniquely skilled as he is in the art of manipulation, this seems like the perfect opportunity to escape his dead-end life and dull wife. There is little point in trying to explain the story further, you'll just have to watch this fantastically surreal, absurd, dark, gobsmackingly original comedy - the brainchild of a quite obviously seriously warped puppy.

Slapstick tale of organised crime and family conflict amongst three generations of gypsies, from the former Yugoslavia. Set on the banks of the Danube, the riotous action centres on the old-style octagenarian gangsters, their crooked and conniving offspring, and the youngest generation, whose touching romanticism bring a touch of whimsy to the proceedings. A twisty turny farce with a cruel humour and moments of inspired surrealism.

An audaciously accomplished directorial debut from writer and leading man Vincent Gallo. Recently released from prison for a crime he didn't commit, Billy Brown (Gallo) decides to head for the family homestead, where his parents believe their son's been away building a brilliant career. In order to keep up the pretence the socially inept loner needs a girlfriend, so he kidnaps one - Layla - and marches her back to meet his dysfunctional folks. What follows is a brilliantly cringeworthy portrait
