Help Me Watch a Good Film

[dotinthesky]

I belong to Sofa Cinema, the British equivalent of Netflix.

My rental queue is running perilously low so I need suggestions for it. Seen any good horror films lately (or know of great classics?) Any films made you weep and fall in love with humanity again? Any action thrillers made you devour your nails? Would love to get some recommendations!

Atonement is really nice!!!!

Atonement was lovely and quite close to the novel (which is worth checking out if you wish to read something good). Golden Compass was a big disappointment; if you haven't read the books it is based on, you'll feel lost. I haven't seen the others though I've heard bad things about I Am Legend (it has apparently a really stupid ending.)
