It's director Darren Aronofsky's (Requiem For a Dream) first movie from 1998. It's a black and white indie movie about a mathematic genius who discovers a secret and begins to go insane. It's excellent and you should definitely check it out if you get the chance.

Well, actually, that's a pretty good list. Aliens is definitely in my top 3.

I made a Top 100 list a couple years ago, but it keeps changing and I haven't updated it in a long time. So, uh, I don't know what my point is, but whatever.

Yeah, I know the plot kind of sucks. But I don't care. It's the only movie that's ever scared me, and I just love the way it was made.

There are some things in this world I will never understand. Why people don't like The Mexican is one of them.
