[Innocent X]

1. Pulp Fiction - If film was literature, this would be a short story collection that wins the Pulitizer Prize - a rare feat.
2. Darkman - Sam Raimi raises any genre picture he does to the level of art. And shit, good comic book films are in short supply. Speaking of, can we have next year's movie draft after May?
3. Back to the Future - As many times as I've seen it, I don't think I've ever turned to this film on a cable channel and not watched at least a half hour of it.
4. Hoosiers - I'm a sucker for good melodrama, especially when sports are involved. Hackman and Hopper are excellent together.
5. Memento - "We all need mirrors to remind ourselves who we are."
6. Do the Right Thing - A strong message goes down easy when you have an entertaining, dialogue funfest as the spoon.
7. Point Break - Bankrobbing Ex-Presidents, a Quarterback turned FBI Agent, Surfing, Skydiving, Philosophy---what's not to love?
8. Searching for Bobby Fischer - I just always felt that if they ever showed Peter Parker as a child, he'd be Josh Waitzkin.
9. Fletch - Need a comedy, this is one of the best.
10. Wall Street - Michael Douglas and Charlie Sheen in the limo, the steak tartare, Terence Stamp at Gecko's house comparing cock size, some people say this movie is overrated, some say it's not Stone's best effort, but I look at scenes like that and see one of the most powerful films ever made. A 10th round steal.

[Jason Pollock]

1) The Killer

Easily one of the best films in the history of film. More than an action film, more than a drama, more than a love story-it's a blueprint for a way of life. To describe this film in one word?

Passion. If you let The Killer take you where it wants you to go-it stays with you forever.

2) They Live

John Carpenter's docu-drama on the Reagan Era is a more powerful whistle-blower than JFK, and it benefits from a fine screen performance from our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ (Roddy Piper).

3) Grosse Pointe Blank

At the end of the day-this film means as much to me as Phantom Menace means to Django. I AM Martin Blank.

This is the film I want to make. I hadn't been so inspired by a film since I saw-well, one of my future picks...

4) A Life Less Ordinary

Another perfect film. 40's screwball comedy with a 90's pop-culture veneer and a punk rock sneer from the friends behind Trainspotting.

5) Say Anything

For what it says. Some movies confirm who you are-validate you. You walk a path. Not really sure if you're right. Someone comes along who has achieved what you want and shows you that the path you're on is the good thing. Cameron Crowe let me know when I was 16 years old.

And is it just me-or is Grosse Pointe Blank pretty much Say Anything 2:The Quickening.

6) The Phantom

This movie is posessed of an altruism to which I can only aspire. An interview with star Billy Zane sold me on seeing the flick on opening night. He said that he, "wanted to portray the beauty of this character who does good-not for money or fame, but because he believes in the idea that if you do good, good things will happen to you."

A life philosophy from a sexy man.
Cathy Zeta and Kristy Swanson don't hurt either.

Legend has it that Billy Zane and BRUCE CAMPBELL were fighting for the role, and Zane won out. Knowing that, and watching the film-you realize that both the hero and the villain are roles that are played with that Bruce Campbell veneer of eanest cheese. But the villain in this film is Treat Williams. Treat Williams starred in the cheese classic DEEP RISING, directed by Stephen Sommers. Sommers, who has name dropped Sam Raimi and the Evil Dead films in numerous Fango interviews, is a monster fan of Army of Darkness, going so far as to crib a few of the film's bits for his film THE MUMMY. Treat Williams' performance in Deep Rising is very Bruce in tone, Sommers is a fan of Army of Darkness, and TODD MACFARLANE'S ARMY OF DARKNESS ASH FIGURE LOOKS LIKE TREAT WILLIAMS.

Oh, and Phantom screenwriter Jeffery Boam created the TV series The Adventures of Brisco County Jr-which starred BRUCE CAMPBELL.

It's all creepishy connected.
