Maybe it's just me but there are a few films that no matter how many times I have seen them, if I'm channel flicking late at night (and I've got the luxury of not having to get up early/go to work the next day) and they appear then I'm there until the end. My 4, would be the following in no particular order of preference;
Lock Stock. Got me last week.
Snatch: Watching it now!
Pulp Fiction. Hope it comes around again soon.
Training Day: A bit left field but I just find it unturnoffable!.
Your 4?!
Special shout out to Die Hard and Terminator. Rewatchable classics.

Could be many for me, but here's four :-
Jackie Brown (Tarantino's best film by a mile) :
Internal Affairs (Gere/Garcia) :
Manhunter (Brian Cox as Lecter...so good) :
To Live & Die In LA (brilliant film, pumping soundtrack).
Two Eighties and two Nineties classics, all really stand the test of time & repeated viewing  |  | | |

Goodfellas - Incredible cinema, incredible cast and totally uncomfortable and compulsive viewing.
Lock Stock - Clever, funny, stylish and in parts quite chilling
Get Carter - The daddy of British gangster films, gritty, well acted and always the phone seen between Caine and Ekland is stunning.
Ipcress File - Better written and better acted spy thriller than Bond, much more realistic gritty story and very much evocative of the real cold war of the time
Magnificent Seven/Seven Samuari - always get caught between the brilliant Western film or original Japanese source material that is amazing cinema.
Monty Python's Life of Brian - Mad genius comedy that has so much fantastic sketches and humour. |  |

I hope for your sake that once upon a time in America doesn't start late in the evening, that is one hell of a long film! |  | | |

Certainly more than 4 fit the category, but I'd say these are the ones that I come across most often:
Blues Brothers
GoodFellas
Pulp Fiction
Shawshank Redemption
On a separate note, I came across Unforgiven the other morning, and realized that I always seem to come across that film in its last 30 minutes or so. I can hardly remember what the first three-fourths of the film is like anymore. |  | | |
