i've got a long list, but most recently is Heart Eyes (2025)
i went in thinking boring bullshit teenage slasher, but i'm pretty shocked how well written the dialogue is. the movie is cookie-cutter for sure, but the dialogue is well done.

All were really good movies that I myself initially passed over (numerous times even) before coming back a while later to be blown away on the first watch. Most of these I ordered on dvd as the credits were still rolling. I can list some more if you like any of these.
I watched Running Scared with Paul Walker at like 3am probably over fifteen years ago. I thought it was brilliant, really dark but fun.
I'm going to have to make a list of the movies recommended here that I want to watch. Lots of interesting picks. Cool idea for a post.
