Some of these are really rare or indie movies, but some of the are just among the greatest classics of cinema. I mean, Notorious, M, The Women, Brazil or Metropolis are hardly the movies difficult to get by, especially if you are interesting in movie history apart from Marvel...
“Sky High” (2005) is one of the most underrated superhero movies. The movie’s camera angles make every scene look straight out of a comic book, or a campy superhero cartoon. Most of the movie takes place in a high school for kids with superpowers, but it’s situated on a platform several miles in the sky. The school is divided between heroes and sidekicks, and Bruce Campbell is the gym teacher.
Impressive list. I've been working on my own Top 100 Favorite Films and several of these will be on that list. The best thing about these lists is I find films I've yet to see that I am interested in, and some I have seen that are due for a rewatch. Keep the lists coming!
I watched that for the first time earlier this year on TCM with what I assume was the original music and it was fantastic. Tried to watch it again on Tubi and it wasn't the original music which just wasn't the same.
I recommend “Strange Days” at least once a month. Angela Bassett soars in the film. Fun fact: her line “right here, right now” is the sample for the song of the same name by Fatboy Slim.
I love 'Beoynd the Valley of the Dolls'! Ebert disowned the film. He hated it. He is wrong. The visuals, editing, campy dialogue and wild story make it so much fun to watch.
It was a modest hit in terms of gross revenue, and critics at the time approved of it fairly enough. I think its inclusion here is due to how much its stature has grown in the ensuing years. Sure the pursuit sequences remain as effective and outstanding as ever, but another likely factor in its revaluation is how it serves as a swan song for the golden age of De Niro’s career and as a rare example of a proverbial “thinking man’s” action picture, which is also a rare commodity nowadays. Had this been produced along the lines of today’s standard cinematic formulae, it would’ve been cruder, louder and far more hyperbolic. Even for it’s time it was a refreshingly grounded and understated picture
Great list! For the vast majority, my response was YES! amd for the others I could see why you had put it on the list and I need to see it. One suggestion- Leaving Las Vegas. A unique movie that looks at the dire experience of someone who has lost their will to live but still goes through the motions.
Great video Excellent balance of footage and narration Interesting too Sometimes there’s too much talking and context and the song or footage isn’t played making things less interesting
Thank you for mentioning Fly Away Home! It is a crime Carroll Ballard doesn’t make films anymore, because he made three of the most visually-arresting films ever.
I fully expected this to be a list for the everyday man that is mostly meaningless to anyone that calls themself a cinephile. Instead, I got a list with several movies I'd seen, several already on my watchlist, several I've heard of, and a bunch that I just had no idea about at all. Well done!
Some films rarely seen: The Stunt Man, directed by Richard Rush (1980), Something Wild, directed by Jonathan Demme (1986), The Hit, directed by Stephen Frears (1984), Design for Living, directed by Ernst Lubitsch (1933), Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai, directed by Jim Jarmusch (1999), White Hunter Black Heart, directed by Clint Eastwood (1990), Into the Night, directed by John Landis (1985), The Voyage of Captain Fracassa, directed by Ettore Scola (1990), Kikujiro, directed by Takeshi Kitano (1999), Bigger than Life, directed by Nicholas Ray (1956), Hopscotch, directed by Ronald Neame (1980), The Ipcress File, directed by Sidney Furie (1965), Tucker: The Man and His Dream, directed by Francis Coppola (1988), When the Cat's Away, directed by Cédric Klapisch (1996)
Thanks. Bever heard of he Voyage of Captain Fracassa, directed by Ettore Scola (1990), Kikujiro, directed by Takeshi Kitano (1999), or When the Cat's Away, directed by Cédric Klapisch (1996)
well, you covered a lot here ! My only addition would be "Seconds" by John Frankenheimer, starring Rock Hudson. Only discovered it a few years ago at the Berlin International FIlm Festival.
I just watched Paris, Texas recently and I liked that movie very much. Thanks to good acting of Harry Dean Stanton, Nastassja Kinski, Dean Stockwell and Hunter Carson. Sam Shephard made a good screenplay and director Wim Wenders probably made his best picture. I'm so glad I finally saw this 40 years old masterpiece. Paris, Texas really deserved Palme d'Or in Cannes.
Empire Records starring Rory Cochrane, Renee Zellweger, Liv Tyler, and Robin Tunney PCU starring Jon Favreau and Jeremy Piven Winds on the Prairie (ghostly horror flick) The Immortal Demon Slayer starring Eddie Peng (China)
PCU gave me a Pevin crush up until S3 of Entourage. His character in the movie was everything i wanted to be, and i still think about the guy on the couch watching tv on his master’s thesis
Where is One Hour Photo? It’s a terrific performance by Robin Williams and his character is very relatable. Loneliness is real, unless you’re some kind of Chad.
Kudos for mentioning three of my favorite underrated films: Eyes Without a Face, In a Lonely Place, and Silent Running. I could probably go on for DAYS about some of my favorite underrated films, but several that spring to mind are: Dick Tracy Come Back to the Five and Dime JImmy Dean, Jimmy Dean W.W. and the Dixie Dance Kings Amateur Night at the Dixie Bar and Grill Silence of the North The Andromeda Strain Colossus: the Forbin Project and probably one of the best movies I have ever seen: Resurrection (with Ellen Burstyn) Still, my favorite movie of all time is Woody Allen's Radio Days
It's really good! There were some plot holes I was wondering about tho like if people switched lives, how would society recognize their new characters? I recommend city of lost children if you liked the bioshock visuals
11/100: The Score, Amores Perros, Key Largo, Brick, The Straight Story, Ronin, Tokyo Monogatari, Brazil, Hero, Dark City, Come and See. Though I have to say, Ronin and Hero both were pretty big main stream hits at the time, and a few others aren't that obscure either. All worth watching, but if I have to single one out: *Brick*. Maybe not the best movie of the ones I've seen (that would be the Straight Story), not the most important in cinematic history (Tokyo Monogatari) nor the most intense (Come and See), but there's something utterly unique and anachronistic about this movie. Loved it!
Since the title of this video is "Top 100 Greatest Movies You've Never Seen", I have to assume you're talking directly to me. I have seen 61 of these movies. Please change the title to "99 Good Movies plus Naked Lunch, 39 Of Which You Haven't Seen Yet", Thank you.
More people need to see the excellent clay animation, stop-motion comedy-drama Mary and Max. It's brilliantly done, funny, touching with some great voice performances from Philip Seymour Hoffman and Toni Collette
I’m almost 60 and saw Westworld for the first time, after hearing its praises for decades,and can honestly say the description of the movie is more interesting than the movie!! I watched it to the end and said ‘That’s it?? What the hell!’
I took it as a challenge that you called this "movies you haven't seen". But given that I actually haven't seen so many of these, I was rather surprised at the inclusion of some that I have seen. Westworld was one that popped up occasionally on Saturday afternoons during the 70s and 80s when local TV stations could buy a la carte content. And I didn't think that Waiting for Huffman and Brazil were that obscure. I became aware of Come and See only in recent years and have now seen it. A very chilling film.
I can add some more : -The Frighteners by Peter Jackson ; -All the little animals with John Hurt and Christian Bale ; -Einstein and Eddington with Andy Serkis and David Tennant ; -Seven sisters ; -Under the skin with Scarlett Johansson ; -Moon with Sam Rockwell ; -Fanboys ; -No way out with Kevin Costner ; -The Firm with Tom Cruise ; -Peter's Friends with Stephen Fry ; -Starter for 10 with James McAvoy ; -Fighter with Mark Wahlberg ; -Becoming Jane with Anne Hattaway ; -The last station with Christopher Plummer ; -Boîte Noire with Pierre Niney ; -Insomnia by Christopher Nolan ; -3:10 to Yuma with Russel Crowe ; -The Brothers Grimm by Terry Gilliam ; -The Fountain with Rachel Weisz and Hugh Jackman ; -The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus by Terry Gilliam ; -The Craft ; -A life less ordinary by Danny Boyle ; -Reign of Fire ; -Dorian Grey ; -What lies beneath by Robert Zemeckis with Harrison Ford and Michelle Pfeiffer ; -Dead Calm with Nicole Kidman and Sam Neill ; -Nowhere boy ; -Velvet Golmine by Todd Haynes ; ...
Credit where it's due, WatchMojo: I thought this would just be another case of things young people haven't seen or heard or done or whatever, and that as an person in my 50s I would think it was mostly dumb. But no. I've seen a whole lot of movies in my day but I've only seen 9 of these. Thanks for a whole bunch of additions to my list of movies to seek out!
Thanks for introducing us to plenty of new movies. Attack the Block is so underrated, and has plenty of British talent involved, both behind and in front of the camera.
I would include Speed 2, Toy Story 3 (Tarantino questioned his abilities after seeing it), Independence Day (The original), Top Gun 2 (Yes there is a 2nd one go watch it), The 3rd Star Wars (Which is actually the 1st), Rambo 1st blood part 1(The one that started it all) and for all you sci-fi nerds The Matrics, it will blow your mind no one can tell you what it is you have to watch it yourself. Honorable mention : Die Hard 3, a German indie film(English translation "The Heart" about a misunderstood German man as he fumbles to fit into American culture. The ending will have you in tears as one of the most underrated dramas ever seen on the silver screem.
Great list. I've definitely seen 16 of them, I'm certain I haven't seen 51 of them, the other 33 I need to look at longer clips of because I think I've seen them but want to make sure I'm not misremembering. Good excuse to go watch/re-watch these.
Gods dang, "Forbidden Planet" was and is amazing. Bit of a luke-warm love-story, but at least it doesn't go full plot tumor, and the music / sound design is as perfect as any you'll ever hear. Also, some of the backdrops are plain gorgeous. Love it.
One that is a lighthearted delight that it seems no-one has seen is 1984's "American Dreamer" starring JoBeth Williams, Tom Conti, and Giancarlo Giannini.
"Carnival of the Souls" terrified me! I saw it when I was 12 and it stayed in my head for a very long time. My sister is a horror movie fan and it scared her too!
Here's a few that would make my list: Angel Heart (1987) - one of my favorite films, and one of Alan Parker's best IMO. It was kind of popular back in the day, but seems to be mostly forgotten nowadays, sadly. The Swimmer (1968) - Burt Lancaster in a disturbing role. Recommended. Who can kill a child? (1976) - an effective Spanish horror/thriller in the vein of Village of the Damned Looking for Mr Goodbar (1977) - Diane Keaton also starred in the much more well known, Oscar-winning Annie Hall in that same year. But "Goodbar" is way better IMO. Six degrees of separation (1993) - one of Will Smith's lesser known films, but very enjoyable.
I've seen Forbidden Planet, The Toxic Avenger, The Omega Man, Backbeat, The Pope Of Greenwich Village, Attack The Block, Westworld, Eyes Without A Face, Carnival Of Souls, The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms, Metropolis, Dark City and Primer.
@@BlackHatCinephile guess what you are Also a liar that has 0 proof about others being someone else. Guess what anything you claim is false because you are delusional.
@@BlackHatCinephile you lie all the time and accuse others of being someone else with 0 proof in months to back your lies up. You and tiger are delusional liars that doesn't have anything to back there claim up .
Others great movies I can think of that most have not scene are: -11:14(2003) -The Last Supper(1995) -Miracle Mile(1988) -Windwalker(1980) -To Each his Own(1946) -Take Shelter(2011) -Red Rock West(1993) -My Dinner With Andre(1981) -The Thirteenth Floor(1999) -Lone Star(1996) -Worlds Fastest Indian(2005) -Maude(2016) -Story Of David(1976) -Butterflies Are Free(1972) -Paper Moon(1973) -Melvin And Howard(1980) -Fatman And Little Boy(1989) -World Gone Wild(1987) -Night Of The Hunter(1955) -How I Got Into College(1989) -Petrified Forest(1935) -eXistenZ(1999) -Ship Of Fools(1965) -Little Sister(1992) -Someone’s Watching Me(1978) -The Rains Came(1939) -The End(1978)
I drove through Matewan today. I appreciate the name being pronounced properly. It’s usually mispronounced “Mat-ah-wan”. I’ve watched 15 of these movies, mostly the pre-1960’s ones.
From the list I’ve only seen Naked Lunch, Free Fire, The Orphanage, The Omega Man, The Score, Marvin’s Room, American Honey, Hidalgo, In The Mouth Of Madness, Frailty, THX 1138, A Most Violent Year, Hell Or High Water, Attack The Block, Westworld, I remember bits of Fly Away Home, Brick, The Straight Story, Silent Running, Ronin, Brazil, Audition, She’s Gotta Have It, La Haine and Dark City
Damn only 19/100: Primer, Dark City, Metropolis, Hero, Brazil, Dogtooth, Ronin, Bone Tomahawk, Westworld, Session 9, Attack the Block, The Northman, THX 1138, In the Mouth of Madness, Hidalgo, The Omega Man, The Orphanage, The Toxic Avenger, Naked Lunch In the Mouth of Madness is actually one of my favorite movies and Sam Neill one of my favorite actors. Highest ranking on my list to watch next is A Boy and his Dog (for being a major influence on the Fallout games)
Proud to say I have seen a legit dozen or more of these films. Also Metropolis and Primer in the top 10! YES YES YES!!! Must see for any Sci-fi lovers! Also shocked how dominant A24 films are on this list but hey plenty to check out now
Three movies that are not so well known comes to my mind and I think are terrific "The Man who would be King" is my favorite Sean Connery movie, "Into the Night" never get tire of watching this movie full of cameos by actors and directors, "Living in Oblivion" if you like movies about movie making you might love it, Steve Buscemi , that I wish to see more often, is so good in this movie.
"Come and See" is a heartbreaking story. So is "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas". Another that belongs on your list is "Citizen X", based on a true story. Stephen Rea gives the performance of his life!
My favourite underrated films - Trumbo Bryan Cranston is brilliant Also house of the flying dragons - brilliant Chinese film & five year engagement - Emily blunt, Jason Segal
One that could easily have featured is Brandon Cronenberg’s Possesser (2020). It’s about an assassin who uses a machine to infiltrate and take control of people’s minds and bodies to get close to her target. It has a creeping dread throughout and compelling existential crisis for both the assassin and the person she hijacks. It’s a deeply disturbing film with brutal violence but, if you have the stomach for it, it’s a phenomenal horror thriller
A Boy And His Dog, The Score, Hiroshima Mon Amour, The Handmaiden, Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls, The Rider, THX 1138, Hell Or High Water, Amores Perros, Westworld (movie version), The Killing, Bone Tomahawk, The Devil’s Backbone, Wind River, Hunt For The Wilderpeople, Ronin, Tokyo Story, Brazil, Auditions, Pig, La Haine, Hero, Metropolis, Paris, Texas, Stalker, M, Peeping Tom, Fail Safe and Come And See are my favorite movies that barley no one saw. These are movies I don’t forget.
Would add "Der Totmacher/The Deathmaker" (1995). Dunno how the synchro holds up since I watched it in german but I was impressed with it. Also: Buried (2010), The Man From Earth (2007), A Chinese Ghost Story (1987), Unholy Women (2006) BUT out of the three short films only the second one "Hagane", In China They Eat Dogs (1999)
Lemme add some. Toy soldiers, band of the hand, triple 9, survival quest, runaway, cold in July, nighthawks, vision quest, glory daze, over the edge, three o clock high, blue ruin, threesome, last of the dog men, streets of fire, Solaris, moon.
Tokyo Story, M, and Notorious are each very well known classics. For ne, the absence of Hoop Dreams and The Thief of Bagdad is stunning -- both goated movies
The low budget Sci Fi masterpiece PANDORUM (2009). I had no idea what the movie was about and my mind was blown immediately ... again it's low budget, but a good international cooperation and the plot is actually pleasant.
well, I wouldn't call this list movies I've never seen since it looks like I've seen a considerable number of them but I admit that it is a great list of great movies.
Thief. The Hunger. Welcome to Me. I've tried like 4 times, but I've never made it through Stalker. The original Solaris I thought was stunningly brilliant.
"Baraka" (1992). Get the Blu-Ray version, upscale the video on a 4K player, run the video out to the biggest UHD screen, and the audio out to the best sound system, that you have access to. You won't regret it.
I wanted to watch it for years, but Disney Plus hasn’t added Hidalgo and every other streaming service that has it, I have to buy it. Hopefully Eddie the Eagle is free-to-watch, because I love Olympic movies. Young Woman of the Sea was EXCELLENT!
What about…. 1. Swingers 2. Go 3. One Hour Photo 4. Looper (better than Brick) 5. The Candidate 6. Serpico 7. Incendies 8. Walkabout 9. Last Year at Marienbad 10. Zodiac
Would be kind of nice if, at the very least when a film is based on some classic novel or short story by a fairly well known author, it was mentioned when talking about the film. Since I am mostly familiar with science fiction: A Boy and His Dog - a short story by Harlan Ellison. Predestination - _All You Zombies_ a short story by Robert Heinlein. Omega man - I Am Legend, a novel by Richard Matheson. With all of those I prefer the source story to the film, or films, in the case of I Am Legend. Stalker differs a lot from the novel A Roadside Picnic by the Strugatsky brothers so you can't really compare the film to the novel well in that case, but a lot of their stories (those translated, I can't read Russian) are definitely worth reading. Since interesting films when based on written fiction are often interesting partly because the source is I would in general like to find out when there is a such a source so I could do something shocking, like maybe read it, if I can find it, and these days you often can even when said source story is no longer in print because it may now exist as a pdf or a kindle version.
10 more underappreciated films for me are Just mercy (2019) The courier (2020) Captain fantastic (2016) Midnight run (1987) Bad education (2019) The sting (1973) Trumbo (2015) About time (2013) Enola holmes (2020) Palm springs (2020)

Some of these are really rare or indie movies, but some of the are just among the greatest classics of cinema. I mean, Notorious, M, The Women, Brazil or Metropolis are hardly the movies difficult to get by, especially if you are interesting in movie history apart from Marvel...
I've seen: Peeping Tom, M, Metropolis, In a Lonely Place, Notorious, Brazil, Marvin's Room, La Haine, La grande illusion, Strange Days.
THANK YOU!!!
wow
“Sky High” (2005) is one of the most underrated superhero movies. The movie’s camera angles make every scene look straight out of a comic book, or a campy superhero cartoon. Most of the movie takes place in a high school for kids with superpowers, but it’s situated on a platform several miles in the sky. The school is divided between heroes and sidekicks, and Bruce Campbell is the gym teacher.
*Kurt Russell is the good version of Homelander*
Impressive list. I've been working on my own Top 100 Favorite Films and several of these will be on that list. The best thing about these lists is I find films I've yet to see that I am interested in, and some I have seen that are due for a rewatch. Keep the lists coming!
What's the point of watching "Queen & Slim" if you show a scene that appears to be a major spoiler?
Exactly where I stopped the video lol. Was thinking 'oohhh, this looks kind of interes...oop, never mind, guess I don't need to watch it now.'
nah I swear I bas buggin, they usually put a spoiler alert title..
I've seen a number of these, but "Metropolis" is THE STUNNER--especially if you can see it with the live organ music. What a great film!
I saw it in a movie theater and it's a fantastic movie.
I watched that for the first time earlier this year on TCM with what I assume was the original music and it was fantastic. Tried to watch it again on Tubi and it wasn't the original music which just wasn't the same.
I recommend “Strange Days” at least once a month. Angela Bassett soars in the film. Fun fact: her line “right here, right now” is the sample for the song of the same name by Fatboy Slim.
Brazil mentioned. Enough to make it a valid list.
Funny they included films like that to a list called "you've never seen'. Brazil, M, key largo, la grande illusion
.. Classics
Metropolis, Dark City, Westworld and THX 1138 as well, especially considering the influence.
@@carinedemolin7832 Ye -- the video seems to be made primarily for younger audiences... which GenXer hasn't seen "Naked Lunch"?
Primer mentioned, enough to make it an invalid list.
You fail to mention that #69, Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls, was written by Roger Ebert
I love 'Beoynd the Valley of the Dolls'! Ebert disowned the film. He hated it. He is wrong. The visuals, editing, campy dialogue and wild story make it so much fun to watch.
I'm obsessed with BOOKSMART and BOTTOMS.
Both movies came out of nowhere and I couldn't stop watching them in a loop for weeks.
Ronin was the one that stood out for me. I feel that was a pretty big mainstream hit.
It was a modest hit in terms of gross revenue, and critics at the time approved of it fairly enough.
I think its inclusion here is due to how much its stature has grown in the ensuing years. Sure the pursuit sequences remain as effective and outstanding as ever, but another likely factor in its revaluation is how it serves as a swan song for the golden age of De Niro’s career and as a rare example of a proverbial “thinking man’s” action picture, which is also a rare commodity nowadays.
Had this been produced along the lines of today’s standard cinematic formulae, it would’ve been cruder, louder and far more hyperbolic.
Even for it’s time it was a refreshingly grounded and understated picture
@@stoogefest16 Maybe it's just because I remember it well.
Great list! For the vast majority, my response was YES! amd for the others I could see why you had put it on the list and I need to see it.
One suggestion- Leaving Las Vegas. A unique movie that looks at the dire experience of someone who has lost their will to live but still goes through the motions.
Leaving Las Vegas is too mainstream for this list. So is Ronin and like half a dozen others.
A great list. I’ve seen a lot of these but there are a bunch that I was not aware of. Thanks!
Great video
Excellent balance of footage and narration
Interesting too
Sometimes there’s too much talking and context and the song or footage isn’t played making things less interesting
Watchmojo blessed my days in the time of depress, thanks 🙏🏻
Thank you for mentioning Fly Away Home! It is a crime Carroll Ballard doesn’t make films anymore, because he made three of the most visually-arresting films ever.
What films are those?
I'm SO HAPPY that "Waiting for Guffman" made the list!
I fully expected this to be a list for the everyday man that is mostly meaningless to anyone that calls themself a cinephile. Instead, I got a list with several movies I'd seen, several already on my watchlist, several I've heard of, and a bunch that I just had no idea about at all. Well done!
Yep, I was sitting back thinking that I probably have seen most if not all of these. But yeah, i was pretty impressed.
Some films rarely seen: The Stunt Man, directed by Richard Rush (1980), Something Wild, directed by Jonathan Demme (1986), The Hit, directed by Stephen Frears (1984), Design for Living, directed by Ernst Lubitsch (1933), Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai, directed by Jim Jarmusch (1999), White Hunter Black Heart, directed by Clint Eastwood (1990), Into the Night, directed by John Landis (1985), The Voyage of Captain Fracassa, directed by Ettore Scola (1990), Kikujiro, directed by Takeshi Kitano (1999), Bigger than Life, directed by Nicholas Ray (1956), Hopscotch, directed by Ronald Neame (1980), The Ipcress File, directed by Sidney Furie (1965), Tucker: The Man and His Dream, directed by Francis Coppola (1988), When the Cat's Away, directed by Cédric Klapisch (1996)
Thanks. Bever heard of he Voyage of Captain Fracassa, directed by Ettore Scola (1990), Kikujiro, directed by Takeshi Kitano (1999), or When the Cat's Away, directed by Cédric Klapisch (1996)
Yes, GHOST DOG was interesting. A bit contrived in some of the deaths though.
Freaks. There'll never be another movie like it.
One of us! One of us!
Sure there will.
Very few lists ever mention "Never Cry Wolf" - THE most underrated Disney movie.
Attack the block !!🔥🔥🔥
Agreed. Brits finest
Great film I watched in film studies definitely deserves the thumbnail
Moses! Such cool movie that I saw twice. That's when I knew old boy was a good actor like young Denzel 😅
Gonna watch it In A few! Thxs MOJO!
My dad used to get foreign films no matter where they come from so I got to enjoy the absolute GEM of Attack The Block!
You could have just said 'John Sayles' for one spot. His entire filmography is worth a watch, and it's very hard to pick favourites.
What other films did he make??
I AM NEVER SURPRISED BY #1.. PRIMER IS THE BEST NON-BOX OFFICE MOVIE OF ALL TIME. ABSOLUTELY UNDERRATED.
A Monster Calls totally knocked the wind out of me. Was not expecting it to be so moving.
I love lists like this. They always give a film or two to watch.
well, you covered a lot here ! My only addition would be "Seconds" by John Frankenheimer, starring Rock Hudson. Only discovered it a few years ago at the Berlin International FIlm Festival.
I have seen so many of these but I cant wait to see the ones I haven't! Thanks for the list.
I just watched Paris, Texas recently and I liked that movie very much. Thanks to good acting of Harry Dean Stanton, Nastassja Kinski, Dean Stockwell and Hunter Carson.
Sam Shephard made a good screenplay and director Wim Wenders probably made his best picture.
I'm so glad I finally saw this 40 years old masterpiece. Paris, Texas really deserved Palme d'Or in Cannes.
I knew Mr. Nobody would be on here. i love that movie, and it feels like no one else has seen it
I've seen it... I live by the line "Every life deserves to be lived".
I never heard of it.
Empire Records starring Rory Cochrane, Renee Zellweger, Liv Tyler, and Robin Tunney
PCU starring Jon Favreau and Jeremy Piven
Winds on the Prairie (ghostly horror flick)
The Immortal Demon Slayer starring Eddie Peng (China)
PCU gave me a Pevin crush up until S3 of Entourage. His character in the movie was everything i wanted to be, and i still think about the guy on the couch watching tv on his master’s thesis
Where is One Hour Photo? It’s a terrific performance by Robin Williams and his character is very relatable. Loneliness is real, unless you’re some kind of Chad.
Really good list. Lots of films I haven’t seen that I’ll check out, and a few I have that I’m glad got some promotion.
A Scanner Darkly is a very good film that doesn’t get brought up a lot. I think it should’ve been on this list, even if it was further back.
Kudos for mentioning three of my favorite underrated films: Eyes Without a Face, In a Lonely Place, and Silent Running. I could probably go on for DAYS about some of my favorite underrated films, but several that spring to mind are:
Dick Tracy
Come Back to the Five and Dime JImmy Dean, Jimmy Dean
W.W. and the Dixie Dance Kings
Amateur Night at the Dixie Bar and Grill
Silence of the North
The Andromeda Strain
Colossus: the Forbin Project
and probably one of the best movies I have ever seen:
Resurrection (with Ellen Burstyn)
Still, my favorite movie of all time is Woody Allen's Radio Days
Great list. Amazed that I have seen so many. Makes me want to start going to film festivals again.
Dark City was awesome!
It's really good! There were some plot holes I was wondering about tho like if people switched lives, how would society recognize their new characters? I recommend city of lost children if you liked the bioshock visuals
11/100: The Score, Amores Perros, Key Largo, Brick, The Straight Story, Ronin, Tokyo Monogatari, Brazil, Hero, Dark City, Come and See.
Though I have to say, Ronin and Hero both were pretty big main stream hits at the time, and a few others aren't that obscure either. All worth watching, but if I have to single one out: *Brick*. Maybe not the best movie of the ones I've seen (that would be the Straight Story), not the most important in cinematic history (Tokyo Monogatari) nor the most intense (Come and See), but there's something utterly unique and anachronistic about this movie. Loved it!
Since the title of this video is "Top 100 Greatest Movies You've Never Seen", I have to assume you're talking directly to me. I have seen 61 of these movies. Please change the title to "99 Good Movies plus Naked Lunch, 39 Of Which You Haven't Seen Yet", Thank you.
😂 😂 😂 😂
Nice list. I've seen 57, four of which are in my top 100. Tokyo Story, Stalker, Dogtooth and Hiroshima Mon Amour.
More people need to see the excellent clay animation, stop-motion comedy-drama Mary and Max. It's brilliantly done, funny, touching with some great voice performances from Philip Seymour Hoffman and Toni Collette
I’m almost 60 and saw Westworld for the first time, after hearing its praises for decades,and can honestly say the description of the movie is more interesting than the movie!! I watched it to the end and said ‘That’s it?? What the hell!’
It had more of an impact back in its day. So many ROBOTS GONE RAMPANT movies came out in the subsequent years.
You just didn't understand the movie.
Awesome list
I took it as a challenge that you called this "movies you haven't seen". But given that I actually haven't seen so many of these, I was rather surprised at the inclusion of some that I have seen. Westworld was one that popped up occasionally on Saturday afternoons during the 70s and 80s when local TV stations could buy a la carte content. And I didn't think that Waiting for Huffman and Brazil were that obscure. I became aware of Come and See only in recent years and have now seen it. A very chilling film.
I can add some more : -The Frighteners by Peter Jackson ; -All the little animals with John Hurt and Christian Bale ; -Einstein and Eddington with Andy Serkis and David Tennant ; -Seven sisters ; -Under the skin with Scarlett Johansson ; -Moon with Sam Rockwell ; -Fanboys ; -No way out with Kevin Costner ; -The Firm with Tom Cruise ; -Peter's Friends with Stephen Fry ; -Starter for 10 with James McAvoy ; -Fighter with Mark Wahlberg ; -Becoming Jane with Anne Hattaway ; -The last station with Christopher Plummer ; -Boîte Noire with Pierre Niney ; -Insomnia by Christopher Nolan ; -3:10 to Yuma with Russel Crowe ; -The Brothers Grimm by Terry Gilliam ; -The Fountain with Rachel Weisz and Hugh Jackman ; -The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus by Terry Gilliam ; -The Craft ; -A life less ordinary by Danny Boyle ; -Reign of Fire ; -Dorian Grey ; -What lies beneath by Robert Zemeckis with Harrison Ford and Michelle Pfeiffer ; -Dead Calm with Nicole Kidman and Sam Neill ; -Nowhere boy ; -Velvet Golmine by Todd Haynes ; ...
Credit where it's due, WatchMojo: I thought this would just be another case of things young people haven't seen or heard or done or whatever, and that as an person in my 50s I would think it was mostly dumb. But no. I've seen a whole lot of movies in my day but I've only seen 9 of these. Thanks for a whole bunch of additions to my list of movies to seek out!
Thanks for introducing us to plenty of new movies. Attack the Block is so underrated, and has plenty of British talent involved, both behind and in front of the camera.
I would include Speed 2, Toy Story 3 (Tarantino questioned his abilities after seeing it), Independence Day (The original), Top Gun 2 (Yes there is a 2nd one go watch it), The 3rd Star Wars (Which is actually the 1st), Rambo 1st blood part 1(The one that started it all) and for all you sci-fi nerds The Matrics, it will blow your mind no one can tell you what it is you have to watch it yourself. Honorable mention : Die Hard 3, a German indie film(English translation "The Heart" about a misunderstood German man as he fumbles to fit into American culture. The ending will have you in tears as one of the most underrated dramas ever seen on the silver screem.
Great list. I've definitely seen 16 of them, I'm certain I haven't seen 51 of them, the other 33 I need to look at longer clips of because I think I've seen them but want to make sure I'm not misremembering. Good excuse to go watch/re-watch these.
Gods dang, "Forbidden Planet" was and is amazing. Bit of a luke-warm love-story, but at least it doesn't go full plot tumor, and the music / sound design is as perfect as any you'll ever hear. Also, some of the backdrops are plain gorgeous. Love it.
and its the first appearence of the robot.
One that is a lighthearted delight that it seems no-one has seen is 1984's "American Dreamer" starring JoBeth Williams, Tom Conti, and Giancarlo Giannini.
Thanks for so meaningful and valuable video as always ❤❤❤
"Carnival of the Souls" terrified me! I saw it when I was 12 and it stayed in my head for a very long time. My sister is a horror movie fan and it scared her too!
Here's a few that would make my list:
Angel Heart (1987) - one of my favorite films, and one of Alan Parker's best IMO. It was kind of popular back in the day, but seems to be mostly forgotten nowadays, sadly.
The Swimmer (1968) - Burt Lancaster in a disturbing role. Recommended.
Who can kill a child? (1976) - an effective Spanish horror/thriller in the vein of Village of the Damned
Looking for Mr Goodbar (1977) - Diane Keaton also starred in the much more well known, Oscar-winning Annie Hall in that same year. But "Goodbar" is way better IMO.
Six degrees of separation (1993) - one of Will Smith's lesser known films, but very enjoyable.
Angel Heart is such a classic
Angel Heart is a great flick, very gritty.
Who can kill a child? (1976) - the first 7 minutes are absolutely harrowing
I've seen Forbidden Planet, The Toxic Avenger, The Omega Man, Backbeat, The Pope Of Greenwich Village, Attack The Block, Westworld, Eyes Without A Face, Carnival Of Souls, The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms, Metropolis, Dark City and Primer.

Notorious is one of my favorite films of all time
I drove through Matewan today. I appreciate the name being pronounced properly. It’s usually mispronounced “Mat-ah-wan”.
I’ve watched 15 of these movies, mostly the pre-1960’s ones.
From the list I’ve only seen Naked Lunch, Free Fire, The Orphanage, The Omega Man, The Score, Marvin’s Room, American Honey, Hidalgo, In The Mouth Of Madness, Frailty, THX 1138, A Most Violent Year, Hell Or High Water, Attack The Block, Westworld, I remember bits of Fly Away Home, Brick, The Straight Story, Silent Running, Ronin, Brazil, Audition, She’s Gotta Have It, La Haine and Dark City
Damn only 19/100:
Primer, Dark City, Metropolis, Hero, Brazil, Dogtooth, Ronin, Bone Tomahawk, Westworld, Session 9, Attack the Block, The Northman, THX 1138, In the Mouth of Madness, Hidalgo, The Omega Man, The Orphanage, The Toxic Avenger, Naked Lunch
In the Mouth of Madness is actually one of my favorite movies and Sam Neill one of my favorite actors.
Highest ranking on my list to watch next is A Boy and his Dog (for being a major influence on the Fallout games)
Perhaps one of the most poetic and moving films, which far too people have seen, is Wim Wenders "Wings of Desire." It should have made this list.
I happened on Bone Tomahawk recently and was amazed at everything about this movie! It’s definitely worth watching.
Proud to say I have seen a legit dozen or more of these films. Also Metropolis and Primer in the top 10! YES YES YES!!! Must see for any Sci-fi lovers!
Also shocked how dominant A24 films are on this list but hey plenty to check out now
Three movies that are not so well known comes to my mind and I think are terrific "The Man who would be King" is my favorite Sean Connery movie, "Into the Night" never get tire of watching this movie full of cameos by actors and directors, "Living in Oblivion" if you like movies about movie making you might love it, Steve Buscemi , that I wish to see more often, is so good in this movie.
"Come and See" is a heartbreaking story. So is "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas". Another that belongs on your list is "Citizen X", based on a true story. Stephen Rea gives the performance of his life!
Citizen X is a fascinating movie
Empire of the Sun
Omg, Timecrimes made the list! I love that film. :D
I’ve watched 5 of these: Forbidden Planet, Attack the Block, Westworld, Brazil, and Metropolis.
I have seen more than 30 of these films and four of those are on my Top 💯 Favorite Films!!!
My favourite underrated films - Trumbo
Bryan Cranston is brilliant
Also house of the flying dragons - brilliant Chinese film
& five year engagement - Emily blunt, Jason Segal
Hunt For The Wilderpeople: "I didn't choose the Skux life, the Skux life chose me."
One that could easily have featured is Brandon Cronenberg’s Possesser (2020). It’s about an assassin who uses a machine to infiltrate and take control of people’s minds and bodies to get close to her target. It has a creeping dread throughout and compelling existential crisis for both the assassin and the person she hijacks. It’s a deeply disturbing film with brutal violence but, if you have the stomach for it, it’s a phenomenal horror thriller
A Boy And His Dog, The Score, Hiroshima Mon Amour, The Handmaiden, Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls, The Rider, THX 1138, Hell Or High Water, Amores Perros, Westworld (movie version), The Killing, Bone Tomahawk, The Devil’s Backbone, Wind River, Hunt For The Wilderpeople, Ronin, Tokyo Story, Brazil, Auditions, Pig, La Haine, Hero, Metropolis, Paris, Texas, Stalker, M, Peeping Tom, Fail Safe and Come And See are my favorite movies that barley no one saw.
These are movies I don’t forget.
Is one of your suggestions “Eddie The Eagle”? That is criminally underrated! ❤
Nicolas Cage has said that Pig is his best role!
"Joe" is my favorite Nick filme
Botherhood of the Wolf. I saw that in the theater when it came out. In French. I do not speak French, but it was easy to follow and a great movie.
Would add "Der Totmacher/The Deathmaker" (1995). Dunno how the synchro holds up since I watched it in german but I was impressed with it.
Also: Buried (2010), The Man From Earth (2007), A Chinese Ghost Story (1987), Unholy Women (2006) BUT out of the three short films only the second one "Hagane", In China They Eat Dogs (1999)
Movies that I love that nobody else seems to have ever seen:
Alexandra's Project
Miracle Mile
Pin
Nothing
The Voices
❤️🇨🇦
Lewis MacDougall was absolutely outstanding in A Monster Calls. One of my favorite movies. Glad to see it on this list.
Duma (2005) is hardly known but is a fun and emotionally resonant adventure drama movie.
This is one of your best MOJO. You included Session 9, truly one of the creepiest movies I have ever seen
Lemme add some.
Toy soldiers, band of the hand, triple 9, survival quest, runaway, cold in July, nighthawks, vision quest, glory daze, over the edge, three o clock high, blue ruin, threesome, last of the dog men, streets of fire, Solaris, moon.
I love Brotherhood of the Wolf
Wind River is amazing
Dark City is an all time favourite
I’ve seen quite a few of these movies.
I absolutely love Eddie the Eagle. Jackman and Egerton are legends for this one
Saw “BeyondtheValleyOfTheDolls” when I was in college in the 90’s at a coffeehouse/theatre that had midnight movies. Such a blast!
Tokyo Story, M, and Notorious are each very well known classics.
For ne, the absence of Hoop Dreams and The Thief of Bagdad is stunning -- both goated movies
But which version of The Thief of Bagdad? The 1924 Douglas Fairbanks one or the 1940 Sabu one? Both are great.
@@brettcoster4781 I especially love the 1940 one
The low budget Sci Fi masterpiece PANDORUM (2009).
I had no idea what the movie was about and my mind was blown immediately ... again it's low budget, but a good international cooperation and the plot is actually pleasant.
well, I wouldn't call this list movies I've never seen since it looks like I've seen a considerable number of them but I admit that it is a great list of great movies.
I love Carnival of Souls, Beast From 20,000 Fathoms, and She’s Gotta Have It.
Thief. The Hunger. Welcome to Me.
I've tried like 4 times, but I've never made it through Stalker. The original Solaris I thought was stunningly brilliant.
"Baraka" (1992). Get the Blu-Ray version, upscale the video on a 4K player, run the video out to the biggest UHD screen, and the audio out to the best sound system, that you have access to. You won't regret it.
I wanted to watch it for years, but Disney Plus hasn’t added Hidalgo and every other streaming service that has it, I have to buy it. Hopefully Eddie the Eagle is free-to-watch, because I love Olympic movies. Young Woman of the Sea was EXCELLENT!
I loved The Florida Project
Key Largo is a must see. Indiscreet likewise. I loved Eddie the Eagle. Dogtooth is one of the most bizarre films I've ever seen.
Movies I've never seen? Hero, Sleepers, Ronin, just to name a few of these films I have seen several times, Brazil also immediately comes to mind!
What about….
1. Swingers
2. Go
3. One Hour Photo
4. Looper (better than Brick)
5. The Candidate
6. Serpico
7. Incendies
8. Walkabout
9. Last Year at Marienbad
10. Zodiac
Everybody and his mom has seen Looper tho
No way is Looper better than Brick😂
Everybody knows Looper and Zodiac lol
Paris, Texas (1984) is a visual and cinematic masterpiece. and Tokyo Story is my Top tier always.
I love it when people tell me what I’ve seen and haven’t.
Would be kind of nice if, at the very least when a film is based on some classic novel or short story by a fairly well known author, it was mentioned when talking about the film. Since I am mostly familiar with science fiction: A Boy and His Dog - a short story by Harlan Ellison. Predestination - _All You Zombies_ a short story by Robert Heinlein. Omega man - I Am Legend, a novel by Richard Matheson. With all of those I prefer the source story to the film, or films, in the case of I Am Legend. Stalker differs a lot from the novel A Roadside Picnic by the Strugatsky brothers so you can't really compare the film to the novel well in that case, but a lot of their stories (those translated, I can't read Russian) are definitely worth reading.
Since interesting films when based on written fiction are often interesting partly because the source is I would in general like to find out when there is a such a source so I could do something shocking, like maybe read it, if I can find it, and these days you often can even when said source story is no longer in print because it may now exist as a pdf or a kindle version.
What movie is the middle picture in the thumbnail from?
The Northman
10 more underappreciated films for me are
Just mercy (2019)
The courier (2020)
Captain fantastic (2016)
Midnight run (1987)
Bad education (2019)
The sting (1973)
Trumbo (2015)
About time (2013)
Enola holmes (2020)
Palm springs (2020)
About Time I feel is fairly well known, as well as Midnight Run.
