The Graduate

Put this much-loved silly 60s coming-of-ager into your DVD player and let it seduce you.

The China Syndrome

A powerful movie about a powerful – erm – power. ‘The China Syndrome’ is a must-see.

Panic

Don’t panic! This little-known black-comic thriller is much better than its little-known status might suggest.

Dark City

Creepy baldies from space and lots of sad faces bring a new meaning to the term “city break” in this marvellously shady piece of sci-fi.

My Best Friend's Wedding

This rom-com, much like its two leads’ friendship, has more to it than you might at first think.

Mr. & Mrs. Smith

Married life isn’t quite the Pitts in this jumbled-but-fun hubby and wife duel.

Blow

It’s only thanks to Johnny Depp being Johnny Depp that ‘Blow’ doesn’t suck.

Creep

It’s murder on the Underground in this less-than-convincing British gore show.

Friday the 13th

About as scary and innovative as a night out with Ken Barlow.

Cactus Flower

Flower power is more than enough to propel this warm sixties comedy into favour.
