The City of Lost Children (1995)
Starring: Ron Perlman, Daniel Emilfork Director: Marc Caro, Jean-Pierre Jeunet Rating
here is amazon review
"Amazon.com
The fantastic visions of Belgian filmmakers Marc Caro and Jean-Pierre Jeunet find full fruition in this fairy tale for adults. Evoking utopias and dystopias from Brazil to Peter Pan, Caro and Jeunet create a vivid but menacing fantasy city in a perpetually twilight world. In this rough port town lives circus strongman One (Ron Perlman), who wanders the alleys and waterfront dives looking for his baby brother, snatched from him by a mysterious gang preying upon the children of the town. Rising from the harbor is an enigmatic castle where lives the evil scientist Krank (Daniel Emilfork), who has lost the ability to dream and robs the nocturnal visions of the children he kidnaps, but receives only mad nightmares from the lonely cherubs. Other wild characters include the Fagin-like Octopus--Siamese twin sisters who control a small gang of runaways-turned-thieves--Krank's six cloned henchmen (all played by the memorable Dominique Pinon from Delicatessen), and a giant brain floating in an aquarium (voiced by Jean-Louis Trintignant). Caro and Jeunet are kindred souls to Terry Gilliam (who is a vocal fan), creating imaginative flights of fancy built of equal parts delight and dread, which seem to be painted on the screen in rich, dreamy colors. --Sean Axmaker"

In response to the above...
Clay Pigeons - You forgot to mention Jeanne Garfalo is in this movie too as the FBI Agent!
Boondock Saints - Great movie so i own it. I wish the planned sequel would finally come out. William Defoe is in this one and the guy that played Indy in the Young Indiana Jones Chronicles.
The 13th Warrior - That one was better than I expected it to be. I liked it even though I am not much for Antonio Banderas.
City of Lost Children - I own that one too. Very weird French Film, but visually interesting. Ron Pearlman is a sideshow Strong Man, and one of the main villians is conjoined twins!
Ok I guess I should contribute a film to this. I can think of a few but I will choose the 2001 Japanese film "Battle Royale". I love this movie. It's a very violent film that sort of reminds me of "Lord of the Flies". Hope you know Japanese or are ok about reading sub-titles. Unlike the City of Lost Children, it is not dubbed into English.

The Devil's Backbone, a spanish horror film (2001), set in the Thirties. Brilliant scares, and very smart. The original title is El Espinoza del Diablo.

Irreversible with Monica Belucci. Controversial but very good.
