 100 Best Films to Rent You've Never Heard Of April 29, 2008
The product seemed a little lacking - contrary to the title, many of the movies it suggested were vaguely mainstream. It came on time and in good shape, and it did give me many ideas for what to see, but it's not the greatest "best movies" book I've seen.

Very interesting, provocative and varied; admittedly, some of the films are extremely well known to buffs and thus do not fit the "never heard of" label, but it is a great start for a Netflix queue or a Blockbuster trip. Unfortunately, since many of these are minor classics, many Blockbuster stores won't stock them -- you need a specialty video store.
GREAT for the Netflix queue! February 14, 2007

This is a wonderful little book, with great suggestions that are very easy to read. Each movie gets a page, and a plot synopsis. I just worked through it and checked everyone I wanted to see. So far I have discoved some wonderful treasures! Buy one for your friends as well.
Great book January 16, 2007

I am familiar with many of these films and
they have largely fallen through the cracks
of time for a good reason, namely THEY SUCK.
