As you've seen the rest, none of these are necessarily inspirational or life changing. (ha) They're just obscure movies that whenever I've asked people, nobody's really heard of or seen and I just think they're decent and different.

Jacob's Ladder is definitely not obscure. Underrated, maybe, but unknown?

Haven't heard of the rest though, except for Gummo.

"Kids" is a good movie. Somewhat difficult to sit through.

Perhaps it is more of a mainstream popular movie but the folks I know have never heard of it, although most of them don't love movies overall like us :)

Loved KIDS...riveting and disturbing.

I was never taken with Legend myself, but I feel like I'm in the minority on that point (at least from people that I've discussed it with).

Hider in the House is the only one I haven't seen. Savannah Smiles is a cutsie poo movie about a cutsie poo little girl that runs away and is thought to be kidnapped by two cutsie poo crooks.

It's a bit saccharine.
