Anthing dramatic with a dash of sci-fi, violence, black humour and kitsch
Here is a small sample of my personal favourites:
- Bladerunner (Ridley Scott - Director)
- 2001: A Space Odessey ( and all Kubrick directed movies)
- Kill Bill vol1 & 2 (all Quentin Tarantino directed movies)
- Fargo (love the Coen Brothers as movie directors)
- American Beauty (Sam Mendes - Director)
- Apocalypse Now (Francis Ford Cappola - Director)
And of course being patriotic : The Lord of the Rings Trilogy (Peter Jackson - Director)

Spinal Tap... one of the best...
Another good one would be 2001: A Space Odyssey... and who could forget The Wall (not the best movie, but still good)?
Then there's also The Rutles: All You Need is Cash, and the Monty Python films... and if you really like Spinal Tap, I recommend Fear of a Black Hat, Spinal Tap except with Gangster Rap, VERY VERY VERY VERY funny.

Can you consider Lord of the Rings or classic Star Wars? Its long, split into parts, fictional, changes alot.
only problem is: ITS POPULAR

Don't forget Dr. Stranglove. I love that movie. There is some great comedy in there. Also, Peter Sellers is fantastic in almost every scene (and by that i mean he almost in every scene in the movie playing three parts.) Kubrick is a genuis of filmmaking

I always like to watch A clockwork Orange when I feel like something strange or just a nasty urge for A bit of the ultra violence.

I've always wanted to see Clockwork Orange. Love the director (would spell his name poorly), and heard it was really good. One day it will happen............i hope.
