The Shining, The Orphanage (El Orphano), A Scanner Darkly, Halloween, and actually Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and Snatch were surprisingly good

The Wicker Man - the original 1973 version
Just saw it after not seeing it in many years.
WOW. It really holds up. Christopher Lee says it is his best performance; I'd have to agree with him.

The Matrix (first one). The truth in movie form.

As for recent movies, my recommendations are "The Dark Knight" and Woody Allen's newest movie, "Vicky Christina Barcelona."
Kubrick

Basically any Kubrick film.
But, all time favourite:
Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0057012/
Paths of Glory is pretty good too, especially for all you proud freedom fighters...what war's really like.
Actually, The Thin Red Line would be a good double bill with this.
peace
p.s. I love watching movies...keep em coming!
