I am looking for some of the more obscure foreign movies. Movies that are not on most people's radar.

Anything by Akira Kurasawa. Ran, Seven Samurai, The Hidden Forest, Rashomon, Dreams El Topo and The Holy Mountain by Alejandro Jodorowsky Faust and Alice by Jan Svenkmeyer Really anything by Werner Herzog, but I'll say Aguirre, The Wrath of God and Nosferatu Inferno by Dario Argento City of the Living Dead and Zombie 2 by Lucio Fulci Fantastic Planet by Rene LaLoux City of God M Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie The Church Oldboy

Battle Royale.
Its my all-time favorite. Its Japanese and its about a class of kids who get sent to an Island where the object is to kill each other off. They each are given a different weapon ranging from anything like a gun to a GPS system to a trash can lid. They all have collars on their necks to track them around in safe and unsafe zones of the island and so if there is more than one person living at the end of three days collars explode and kill them all.
Whatever you do dont see the sequel..... Its awful.

The Webmaster (I think it's Dutch). It's really cool, hard to guess the ending but the version I have is dubbed. I loved the original version of La Caug Aux Folles 1 (before hollyweird grabbed it and did a ripoff of it which was terrible) with subtitles.

Blind Spot - Its an interview with Hitler's Secretary. Its in German and its just so interesting. Its just a woman sitting in a room retelling her memories about the last days of his life, it really is fascinating.
Water - its from a Indian trilogy - this one is about a little girl who is a widow and how in society widows are lower than dogs. Very interesting.
