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.

Metropolis is a masterpiece. It's a bold, original vision of the future decades ahead of its time. Arguably the best movie of the 1920s, although Battleship Potemkin might be slightly better.

Some others that are worth watching:

L'Atalante, a surreal, romantic ride down the river Seine.

Ivan the Terrible, Parts I and II. I'm partial to II, but both parts are masterful.

Five Easy Pieces. One of Jack Nicholson's best performances.

My Dinner With Andre, a slowly-paced, intelligent, incredibly efficient movie entirely without pretense.

Dark City, a dizzying and spectacular sci-fi movie.

 

There are dozens more, but I had to limit it to five
