Can remember a few, here's my top 5

-The Cube Series - Easily one of the best psychological horror series of all time that almost no-one has seen. Technically not one movie, but since the series has been seen by less people than the entire population of the Vatican, it needs a nod .

- Fern Gully - Best. Animation. Movie. Ever. It has Tim Curry singing, what more do you want?

- Metropolis - More people need to see this movie without knowing in what year it was made. It's a technological marvel for the era and it was decades before it was matched, both in technical and story quality.

- Melancholia - This movie. Man this movie. I don't even have enough words to describe how much it moved me (didn't help that I watched it for the first time in one of the most depressing moments of my life)

- Sweet November - Same as Melancholia.

I bought Cube as an impulse buy, one of the best surprises in movies. The second one wasn't all that great though, third one made up for it a bit. The first one remains a classic.
I tried several times but I can't get through Metropolis, my mind just wanders off.

The Hypercube was a horrible, horrible attempt of "sci-fying" the series. I loved some of the death scenes, but the overall concept was poor. I loved Cube Zero though, explained a lot of the psychological breakdowns of the characters of the first movie, plus it gave a good perspective from the people behind the scenes watching the cube. 

And yeah, Metropolis is not an easy movie to watch, it's a silent movie after all, but if you dwelve into the technical processes of the movie, then it might get your attention, even if the story does not. I dare say that it took almost 50 year for another movie to, at least, match it's techincal achievements.
