One of the most interesting plots for a film over the past few years, Rian Johnson's Looper follows contract killers called "loopers" hired by criminal syndicates from the future to terminate victims whom they send back through time.

Bruce Willis in a sci-fi cat and mouse chase well worth watching.
Scary Movie (2000)
Scary Movie really captures a generation and is a concrete cult classic since its release over twenty years ago. The slasher comedy riffs on the likes of
Scream, I Know What You Did Last Summer, Halloween, The Shining and Friday the 13th.
The original birthed four sequels but will always remain the fan favourite in the series. A guilty pleasure of a film for many a movie-lover.
Sleepy Hollow (1999)

There's a lot to love about this film, including a brilliant Danny Elfman score and some classic Burton visuals.
Taxi Driver (1976)
You talkin' to me? Martin Scorsese's 1976 film is one of the most iconic in history, with Robert De Niro giving an incredibly raw performance as the troubled Travis Bickle.
The gritty neo-noir drama focuses on Bickle, a cab driver who's mental state deteriorates throughout the film as he drives around New York City at night.
Warm Bodies (2013)
Jonathan Levine's paranormal comedy came about around the zombie boom which saw the walking dead take over TV and film. However, the film offers a refreshing take on the genre, telling its story through the zombie's perspective.
The film stars Nicholas Hoult as a zombie who forms a relationship with a regular woman played by Teresa Palmer, causing him to slowly return to human form.
