Saw this in the cinema. 4 people walked out after 10 mins, a further 8 after 30 mins.
I loved it. Truly great cinema, made better by a minuscule budget and a truly brilliantly dark sense of humour.
This is just a masterpiece. Style personified. This along with Raising Arizona, Fargo, Miller's Crossing and True Grit are some of the best cinema I've ever seen. Absolutely breathtaking brilliance.

watched it when it first came out and again recently, very good film with some excellent acting.
I know people that thought it was rubbish though, I guess you have to have a bit of a grasp of the historical situation and the political characters for it to make any sense as a satirical comedy

Another vote for The Greasy Strangler: deeply weird and unpleasant but funny with a great soundtrack. Anomalisa is a great film, stop motion puppets telling a very human story. It Follows is a creepy horror with a relentless foe.

Saw both these films at a late-night cinema double-bill when I was an early teen high on poppets and cider ... poppets not poppers I might add - we’d gained access to a northern-line vending machine. Southern Comfort left a big impression on me - cinematography, music, and chocolate-covered raisins do that.

Blood Simple is absolutely amazing. I met a lad when I was 18, who was a couple of years older than me, and he introduced me to loads of good music, books and films, and I can still remember sitting in the pub with him, and him telling me that I had to watch Blood Simple, which was his favourite film at the time. Just a fantastic film. I struggle with claustrophobia, and the bit out in the desert with the burial...stressing me out just thinking about it! My favourite film-makers by a long way. In fact, my wife walked down the aisle to the theme from Miller's Crossing (Love a bit of Carter Burwell).
Oh, and Man Bites Dog; not seen that since it was released, but thought it was very good too.
Deliverance - made me genuinely scared of the countryside until I was in my thirties - and I'm not joking! Fu ck knows what I though was gonna happen in Norfolk or somewhere, but I was very reluctant to find out!
Fulham FC: It's the taking part that counts

Death of Stalin was a great film, scarily close to what actually happened apparently. Another one that sprung to mind was Four Lions, somehow very funny but tragic with difficult subject matter.
