Not sure if this is underrated or just not very popular...

Brotherhood of the Wolf
- Period piece horror movie with Merchant Ivory level costume design, Native American fight choreography and Monica Bellucci in her prime.


ETA:

Legend is a great one. This is for you Legend-lovers.

Add Fierce Creatures to my list for a comedy.

Brotherhood is highly thought of on this board.


I'll go with Nightwatch. Russian film. Awesome.

Good to know. Seems like SOOOO many people haven't seen it, though.

I'll second prestige, although most people who have seen it love it, I just don't think a lot of people have seen it.

I want to say hoop dreams, although I don't think anyone underrates it, a lot of people probably haven't seen it.

Unbreakable is very underrated imo.

Must now include trivia bit about Diane Lane turning down Darryl Hannah's role in Splash to play Ellen Aim.

Not sure how underrated it really is, but I hardly ever hear about Leon: The Professional, and I love that movie.

You ever feel like "I Need a Hero" is the one song that got left out of that movie?

It's pretty much the same song as this one (both written by Jim Steinman), which is awesome and quintessential 80's Hollywood everyman hero pop:

I need to watch Streets of Fire again soon.
