Failed-scientists begin a ghost capturing service, and the need for their services grows, threatening all of New York city.

I don’t have a lot of movies anything like this which I could consider listing as mandatory, so this one gets in pretty easily.

A quirky young woman crushes on a weird artsy guy.

This is quirkier than it’s characters, and is worthy of earning seventeen times its budget.

A hacker learns reality is not as it appears.

A sci-fi ripoff of elements of Lucid dreaming, with elements taken from the Neuromancer/Shadowruncyberpunk” genres.

A pioneering movie for special effects, which have held up quite well, and its general pot and atmosphere. Technically not original for science fiction fans, but great nonetheless.

One of my favourites, although I really wish the actor playing Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss) was good looking.

Two acquaintances keep bumping into one another until a friendship starts; testing the scientifically-proved uncontestable fact that men and women can’t be friends, which is a total fiction.

Phenomenal, even all this time later and compared to everything that was made before and since. Billy Crystal really carries this movie.

  • Trailer
  • Properly titled When Harry Met Sally…
  • TODO – My DVD dies 2/3rds in, and needs to be replaced…

A boring man learns he is part of a greater story when he hears his own narration.

Moody and paced; highly recommended.
