I wanted to do a top 5 of underrated flicks which had been released recently but with Ridley Scott all over the place just now my No.1 is dedicated to him...
5. Strange Wilderness (2008)
A stoner comedy that's actually funny....
4. Tucker & Dale Vs. Evil (2010)
An excellent parody of everything that's wrong with modern Hollywood horror...
3. Super (2010)
Everything Kiss Ass claimed to be and wasn't...
2. The Warriors Way (2010)
A mix of Lone Wolf and Cub and the Good, the Bad & the Ugly....
1. Blade Runner (the original cut) (1982)
Clearly it would be ridiculous to label Blade Runner underrated but if we're talking about the orignal cut then it most definitely, is. Since Ridley Scott released the directors cut the original cut of Blade Runner has been buried under an avalanche of snobbery which has gotten deeper with every new 'cut' released. When I first watched the film what appealed to me is the idea of a Spillane style noir detective story set in the future and this is still what I love most about it voice over and all. And as far as I'm concerned Deckard is not an android he's just a stung out cat trying to do his job....
