Great screen presence in spite of a lack of dialogue, just like Morgan Woodward in Cool Hand Luke.

Martini (De Vito) , McMurphy, Billy Bibbet, Cheswick. Some incredible charactors that you never forget. Love Chief's first line in the movie, when McMurphy passes him a stick of gum, " Mmmm, Juicy fruit" One of my faves!!

Other one, The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. Watched it with my 12 and 16 yearolds recently and they LOVED it!!! Especially the music!!

Not to keep beating a dead horse to death here on this topic; does anyone remember S.O.B. (Blake Edwards film)? Definately a different Julie Andrews character compared to those in the 1960's likes of The Sound of Music, Marry Poppins, etc.

Could you imagine Julie Andrews flashing her tits during Mary Poppers?

Wall Street 1987 with Michael Douglas and Charlie Sheen

Since it's Halloween, I have to agree with the previous poster and 'They Live' (John Carpenter)

I'll have to go with "or so" as none of my favorite cult classics were made in the last 30 years.

Duel (1971)
Gone in 60 Seconds (1974)
Mad Max (1979)
The Blues Brothers (1980)

On a side note, I finally saw Jaws all the way through. I saw the last of it about 20 years ago, never forgetting the line "Smile you son of a..."

A sound effect used in this scene is the same one used at the end of Duel.

Too bad Toby bought it filming the follow up to "Gone..." The scene where Eleanor charges thru Moran Cadillac, leaving Death 'n' Destruction.... Well, "Destruction", anyhow, is CLASSIC, especially the poor secretary's reaction... "Gone" has absolutely no socially redeeming values at all, its just 90 minutes of pure, unadulterated, take-your-mind-out-of-Gear FUN...I LOVED it in '74 when I was 17, & dammitt, I STILL do at 57...

Hey Jon, I think Duel is one of the most underrated films of its time. Definitely a favorite over here!

Didn't they dust off the old truck, & use it again in one of the "Jeepers Creepers" horror flicks ?

I don't ever remember seeing a RED Valiant... Right wasn't it a Plymouth Valiant....
Must have been a custom color.....

They drove the truck off a cliff at the end..... Pretty smushed now....

I love Duel, I remember watching it's first run on TV back when.

I think Dennis Weaver's car was a Valiant, same thing as a Dart basically.

Trivia: it was directed by Steven Spielberg.

Another favorite of mine from recent years is Donnie Darko. Watched it again a couple weeks ago.

Yah, after star wars all of a sudden Duel was a work of art.... I remember they
re-released it in the city.....

Duel was along the same lines as a older B&W film I believe was called
"hot rods to hell" about a buncha kids terrorizing a family in a car in the
mid 50's.... Saw it several times as a kid, not seen it in 20 years....
Old man trapped the terrorists one at a time and killed them off....
