Bell, Book, and Candle -Jimmy Stewart and Kim Novak Funny movie with the most beautiful woman in the world. What's not to like?
T.B. - Sean Connery and a host of very short pirates try to outwit GOD.
Alien - Sigourney Weaver best horror movie of the 80's
Dune - the original. People love it or hate it Personal fav, the scene where Baron Harkonnen pulls the plug on the servant and flys up near the ceiling laughing like the madman he is. F'ing Awesome.
Cabaret - Sweet Liza Minnelli depraved sex and great music.
Fifth Element - starring meat popsicle Bruce Willis, Gary Oldman, Mila Jovovich, Chris Tucker stole the show as the cruise ship MC
Hon. mention: Rocky Horror Picture Show.
