Have you ever seen a movie that you are convinced no one else has seen? None of your friends have heard of it, no one online talks about it, anything like that? For me it's Lucky starring Colin Hanks and Ari Graynor. About a wannabe serial killer who wins the lottery. After I watched it, I went online to see if anyone was talking about it and couldn't seem to find anyone who had even heard of the movie.
So what movie have you seen that you're convinced no one else has?

I've never heard of it! What made you watch it? Was it any good? It was an Irish film starting on TV about midnight as I arrived home. I liked the actor (Pat Shortt who is a comedian I like) and within minutes I was hooked. Its always nice to find a gem like that. Great idea for a thread!

Thought it might be a fun way for people to discover some new/obscure movies!

Blindness Synecdoche New York Q&A Quest for Fire I only found out about these movies from listening to O&A w/Jimmy/Patrice/Vos. To this day if I mention these movies to most people, nobody’s heard of them. Q&A is the only good movie from that list.
These movies I remember watching on tv many years ago. 187, Dirty & Loaded Weapon 1 are good movies. 187 Loaded Weapon 1 Road Dogz The Heavenly Kid Splinter Dirty

The Cremaster Cycle by Matt Barney.
Although they were somewhat of an art project , I don't know anyone that has seen them in my neck of the woods.

Not mine per se, but any movie I try to help others find from their memories, and collective memories at that, but it isn't mentioned on the interwebs....
For me, it seems people forgot about "The Breaks". What a funny flick.

This vampire movie starring Jason Mewes called "Bitten". I don't remember if it was IMDB or Wikipedia but at the time I watched it it didn't even have a page for it.

As far as my close friends I can say several films that they have never seen and never want to see. Several of them refuse to watch movies by certain directors like Wim Wenders, Michelangelo Antonioni, and Pier Paolo Pasolini to name a few. But on the other side they have some that I would never watch myself. Just different taste, nothing wrong with that.
But one that I'm pretty sure they haven't seen that I have seen is Nothing Last Forever from 1984. It's never been released on home video and it was never given a wide release in the 80's. The only way to see it was at special screenings. Turner currently owns the rights to it but have still not given it a home video release although I think they have shown in on Turner Classic Movies. Bill Murray and Dan Aykroyd (who are in the movie) are both big fans of it and had appeared at several of the screenings.

Hellzapoppin'. A hilarious comedy movie made in 1941. My brother mentioned how funny it was. He's a huge movie buff. The movie is hysterical and it was ahead of it's time. It's based on a Broadway Revue that was at one time the longest running show on Broadway. Hellzapoppin' has scenes that influenced MST3K, Mel Brooks, and the makers of Airplane!. It hasn't been officially been given a DVD release due to some hold up with Universal and Olsen and Johnson's estates.
Crazy House. The sequel to Hellzapoppin'. It was recently thought to be a lost film, but someone uploaded it to the Internet Archive. I've seen it. However my brother hasn't.

Mine would be Bugsy Malone (at least in the U.S.). One of Jodie Foster & Scott Baio's first films.
