Add to my lists | Print this list

This list comes from the book "The 100 Best Films to Rent You’ve Never Heard Of" by David N. Meyer. The book attempts to give the casual movie viewer capsule reviews and a mood guide in an effort to avoid the usual dross in the new release section of the video store.
