Ever watch a movie enjoy it and then have absolutely no one to discuss it with because no one else has seen it ad/or has any interest to see it.
I just watched The Magicians (2007) a couple of days ago and I'm pretty sure it qualifies. Heck, even with all the posters on here who have a tremendous knowledge of pop culture my thread on Mitchell and Webb's Peep Show only got three responses. So since the The Magicians is a Mitchell and Webb product I'm convinced no one I know and will likely meet in the future has seen it.

Moving Violations. One of my favorite movies as a (small) child, and no one else has ever heard of it. If I watched it today, I probably wouldn't enjoy it either... however, I've never had the opportunity to, since it was apparently so bad that it's not carried anywhere. "Blood... flows red... on the highway."

Frailty. It's, like, $5 at Target, and it is a great damn movie.

I haven't seen it since the early 1990s, but I can probably count on one hand how many times I've heard it referenced anywhere. To a much lesser extent I also remember loving Disney's The Black Hole. That movie is nowhere near obscure, but it seems to get overshadowed by more fondly remembered Disney movies.

The Last Supper (1995) Playing By Heart (1998): this one always surprises me. Early Angelina Jolie, Sean Connery, Jon Stewart, Ryan Phillipe, Gillian Anderson, Madeline Stowe, Dennis Quaid.

I'm sure my wife's seen Magicians since she's a big Mitchell and Webb fan.
I've seen Moving Violations and enjoyed the hell out of it. Even a lesser Murray is a good Murray. Speaking of which, I'm sure some of you remember One Crazy Summer.
Oh and add me to the list of Fraility fans. Bill Paxton should direct more films. I'd also recommend Mr. Brooks. Kevin Costner as a serial killer is awesome.

Suburbia came out in the late 70's. Had a young flea of the red hot chilli pepers fame in it. Kid on a big wheel gets run over at the end also!

The Apple. I know it's got a cult following, but it's a rather minuscule one at that- like the Barry Horowitz to Rocky Horror's Hulk Hogan.

Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll, the Ian Dury biopic. Never seemed to get much attention, which is a pity, because it was a really decent film, Serkis played an incredible Ian Dury, it covered his positives and negatives as a person, and as someone who was in the audience during the concert scenes, the musical performances were AMAZING.
And not quite a movie, but I wish Disgracefully Yours had a bigger fanbase. It's a Richard O'Brien one man show where he plays Mephistopheles Smith, an evangelist for Hell. It's as funny as it sounds, and very underappreciated.

Taboo.
Interesting premis and great twists IMO and literally the only movie in which January Jones comes up as just half way tolerable.

I loved this movie, and while searching for it I came across another film of the same name starring Giovonni Ribisi. It was good mid 90's lost gen x coming of age junkie tale.
