the complete list after the jump
Pulp Fiction
1994
Directed by Quentin Tarantino. With John Travolta, Samuel L. Jackson, Tim Roth.
The lives of two mob hit men, a boxer and a gangster's wife.
This movie defines 90s movie making and is probably the most important of the decade.
Seven
1995
Directed by David Fincher and written by Andrew Kevin Walker.
Police drama about two cops, one new and one about to retire, after a serial killer using the seven deadly sins as his MO.
So totally unlike anything ever seen before...well anything seen staring big name actors with a big budget any way.
American History X
1998
Directed by Tony Kaye. With Edward Norton, Edward Furlong, Beverly D'Angelo.
A former neo-nazi skinhead tries to prevent his younger brother from going down the path he did.
This film blew my mind! It also makes me ask one question: why would Edward Norton choose not to have the body he has in this movie? (yes i know that question is a bit gay lol)
and last but not least...and yes i know how predictable it is.

The Silence Of The Lambs
1991
Directed by Jonathan Demme. With Jodie Foster, Scott Glenn, Anthony Hopkins.
A young FBI cadet must confide in an incarcerated and manipulative killer to catch a killer.
I had never seen anything this scary when I first saw it...it feels kinda tame now but is still awesome and well worth a repeat viewing...or two.
