Z Channel

I just watched the documentary on the Z Channel. Besides having boring stories about people, they mentioned a lot of cool flicks. Problem is, I haven't found a website with a list of these movies and I had to return the DVD to netflix. So help me make a list!
Here's what I remember;

1. Heaven's Gate
2. The Leopard

The Internet Movie Database (IMDb), of course.

Holy Poop! How did I not think of that. I loose geek points for that one.

I just saw a great 2hr documentary on it on TCM, even though the movie it automatically recorded was some forgotten Sidney Lumet movie.

Hopefully I'll check out a movie that I haven't seen shown. How great it would have been to choose movies (and now music, comedy) over the air, and get paid for it. Of course, things didn't end well for the founder, but if I can find rare Mort Sahl stuff by writing to Universities (to upload them on YouTube), then I'm sure there's a lot of stuff regarding this.


There was a beautiful woman in what appeared to be an early 80s movie, but couldn't put a name on her.
