Some of these may not be "obscure" but most everything I watch evokes the comment "where do you find this stuff??" from my friends!

Silly motorcycle flicks:

Electraglide in Blue
Roadside Prophets


Other:

Slipstream

The Rules of Attraction

Summer Story - the summer vacation of the kid from Christmas Story!

The Dish - about the Apollo 11 space flight

Secondhand Lions

The Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys

If you've seen Groundhog Day and liked it, check out "12:01" - it's a similar movie.

+1 for Harley Davidson & the Marlboro Man,
+1 for Secondhand Lions.

I'm not sure if anyone mentioned it yet, but Slingblade is a good one worth watching.

Me and my girlfriend just watched We Are Marshall, and it was pretty good, too.

I've still got the Times Square buried somewhere too. Also the Speedster driver (Harry Hamlin) went on to LA Law among other things.

I just remembered another couple-

Dark City (on cable right now)
The 13th Floor

They're both a little like "the Matrix" in plot.

Anyone remember Max Devlin and the Devil. It had a moto theme. Max could only ride like a pro when the Devil (Bill Cosby) was watching. I went to that movie with my friends for my 14th birthday! If there were dirtbikes, we were there too.

Diablobrian, Elizabeth Shue was in "leaving las vegas" with nick cage. "Fear and loathing in las vegas" starred johnny depp and benicio del toro.

I just watched "the worlds fastest indian" and loved it. "brotherhood of the wolf" is pretty neat too.

The Worlds Fastest Indian was a good movie based on a true story.

oops, that's right fear and loathing is the movie adaptation of a segment of Hunter S. Thompson's
adventures in the 70s.
(my favorite bit of Thompson prose is his ode to a red Ducati entitled "Song of the Sausage Creature")

My bad, but they are both good flicks in their own right. Obviously my thing for Elizabeth Shue
runs a little deeper than I thought

Don't know if its been mentioned but the early 70`s era Aussie bike scene movie "Stone" was a real classic & still a cult movie.
Questionable acting & script line still doesn't detract from it.
A bike gang all with brand new Kwaka Z9`s lets an undercover cop hang out with them to help track down a killer stalking them.
The end scene is still chilling by todays standards

There is one that Charlie Sheene plays an undercover cop in a california bike gang based on a true story, BUT I can't think of the movies name.

"Beyond the Law". some cool bikes."Based on a true story". That always makes me laugh. Yeah it is true that there was a story that the movie was based on. All movies are based on stories. whether they are fictional stories is the question.
