Our Family Wedding Online Putlocker here. Honorable Mention: Kung Fury. This isn’t a feature length film, but it deserves a mention just for badassery.

With a running time of about half an hour, and a budget just over $6. That expectation would be more than met. But that’s not the point of Kung Fury. This feature is at once a loving homage and a blistering takedown of action movies, martial arts classics, ’8.

Germans’ fascination with David Hasselhoff. We could warn you about the spate of Hitler jokes, but you still would Nazi them coming.

Yeah, we went there. Kung Fury has over 2. You. Tubes, which means that either a handful of fans have done little else since its release—or that Kung Fury has legions of fans the world over. It’s probably the second one, since most of the people you encounter in life know about Red Ninja, the Hackerbot, Triceracop, and the lady Viking who may or may not have a name. Haven’t seen this one yet? You can, for FREE. Pink Flamingos. The films of John Waters aren’t for everyone.

If you’re sexually repressed, homophobic, or just don’t like Divine, you might want to avoid his work altogether (except for Serial Mom). But if you aren’t getting enough transsexual cinema in your regular life, Waters is the filmmaker for you. Pink Flamingos is an unexpected black comedy with a crime story wedged in- between the celebration of perversion and hedonism. Sounds fun, right?

Highlights of this delightful film include a black market baby ring, a fierce competition to be ‘the filthiest person in the world,’ the murder and cannibalization of some local police, and one of the cleverest and most unnerving purse snatching scams anyone has ever heard of.

Unless you have an especially open family, we don’t recommend watching this one with parents or kids. My Big Fat Greek Wedding.

One could say that this movie is the Credence Clearwater Revival of films. It’s enormously popular, everyone agrees that it’s good, but it never quite made it to the number one spot. My Big Fat Greek Wedding is often referred to as a sleeper hit—it didn’t have an enormous opening weekend. But the word- of- mouth on this movie was so good that people kept paying theater prices to see it, even after it was out on video. This movie, which was produced by Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson, remained in cinemas for over a year after initial release.

We don’t mean that it went away and came back. My Big Fat Greek Wedding came to theaters and didn’t leave until a few weeks after home video copies were available.

Made for a paltry $5 million, this movie made over $3. Nia Vardolos is delightful as an insecure woman with a stereotypically crazy family. It’s a funny, smart study of how the people who drive us the most crazy are often the ones we love the best. Deathtrap. If you only know Christopher Reeve as Superman, you’re missing out on some splendid comedy. Along with Noises Off! Switching Channels, Reeves’s best known comedy is this thriller, Deathtrap. If you’ve never seen or read it, you might want to skip the rest of this entry to avoid spoilers, and just know that you need to give it a watch.

Deathtrap is about a failing playwright who thinks he’s washed up. He conspires to steal a play from a former student, but that turns into another conspiracy to do something even worse. Then we learn that the victim of the conspiracy may be a conspirator himself. Meanwhile, the psychic lady staying in the house down the road has the distinct feeling that something is up. There’s also a kiss between two leads that some audience members did not handle gracefully at the time. Deathtrap had a small budget, even by 1.

Reeve, Michael Caine, Dyan Cannon, and Irene Worth. The Full Monty. Fox Searchlight isn’t so much a small film company as it is an experimental imprint of a huge one.

That’s okay though, because this brilliant 1. Long before the likes of Magic Mike, the idea of fellas showing off their bods for cash was an outlandish concept for a film. As the cast of The Full Monty includes guys like Tom Wilkinson, Robert Carlyle, and Mark “King Robert Baratheon, first of his name” Addy, you know you’re in for a fun time. The Full Monty is a UK- made film that destroyed box office records, making more than $2. It spent some time as the highest grossing film in the UK, until it was toppled by some James Cameron thing about a boat that sinks and kills the Wolf of Wall Street. The Fully Monty got rave reviews from critics and remains a highly enjoyable watch.

American Graffiti. For nerds of a certain age, American Graffiti is a timeless classic. For the rest of us, it’s a sizable slice of nostalgia, and a chance to see huge actors back when they were crazy young. Really, Richard Dreyfuss, Harrison Ford, Kathleen Quinlan, and Cindy Williams all look fresh out of high school. Mc. Kenzie Phillips is what they used to call “jail bait,” and Wolfman Jack cameos—harkening back to the years when everyone assumed that the famous DJ was a black guy. In the 1. 97. 0s, the fashion was to look back fondly on the ’5. That’s how we got the show Happy Days and why Ron Howard is one of the richest people in the known universe.

This movie takes place on the night before members of a high school class leave for college, or the army, or to go out and find a local gig. American Graffiti is the precursor to high school films like Fast Times at Ridgemont High or Dazed and Confused—complete with a cast of people who eventually became wicked famous. And it was all done with a budget of less than a million bucks. Lost in Translation. Why doesn’t Bill Murray have an Oscar for best actor? Because like horror, the comedy genre rarely gets the props it deserves. Making people laugh is no easy task.

Doing it without traditional setup- expansion- punchline jokes is even tougher. Still, Bill Murray, Scarlett Johansson, and a beautifully awkward Anna Faris are delightful in this dramedy that revolves around a platonic friendship between two unhappy Americans who happen to find themselves in a swanky part of Japan. Lost in Translation was made for about $4 million, and it grossed over $1.

Faris in particular gives a subtle performance as a truly awful singer who is sure she’s all that. The final moments of this picture are a source of much debate among viewers, and we’d love to hear your take in the comments. Juno. This is another tiny film that resonated with viewers in a big way.

The story of a young girl (Ellen Page) and her unexpected teen pregnancy was both loved and hated by moviegoers.

Juno was made for less than $8 million, and brought in a box office tally of over $2. Not too bad, right?
