Oh Yeah! the Frisco Kid is Brilliant. The way Gene wilder rides the "horsie' just kills me.

How about "Outing Riley" with Nathan and Michael McDonald.[2007]
And "Shakespeare Retold"which reconfigures Shakespeare's best into contemporary tales. Really well done. BBC [2007]

I was going to put in Outing Riley but assumed everyone here was familiar with it. I love it. every character is so well drawn and played. The message Nathan Fillion's character leaves on his brother's answering machine makes me cry every time i see it.

The Gumball Rally - pure 1970's road race fun ... before "Cannonball Run" killed the idea.

Mark Of The Devil ....a 70's torture/exploitation movie with much campy gore. Starred the legendary Herbert Lom and a bunch of unknown Czechs.

Thank you, PizmoBeach, for the heads-up on the Zatoichi films!
Hulu appears to have almost all the ones pre-1970.
(I'd post the link, but this board does funky things with Hulu URLs!)
And I really loved Blind Fury!
Thanks, Kwicko, for alerting me to Lucky Number Slevin, and FYI your other pick, the Andre Braugher Thief, is also on Hulu.
Some of my favorite little-knowns:
• Le Mans [1971]
• Buckaroo Banzai [1984]
• Manhunter [1986]
• Grand Canyon [1991]
• The Hunted [1995]
• Crossworlds [1997]
• Kiss Kiss Bang Bang [2005]
• Appaloosa [2008]

Blood of Heroes

( I found no quotes on IMDb ... the following are from memory. )
"The quick needs a friend."
"I put the skull on the stake."
"I never thought it could be played so fast and so hard!"
"I don't want to play with this bunch ... especially that one,
the one from the league!"
... oooOO}{OOooo ...
I've given up looking for the meaning of life. Now all I want is a cookie.
