Darkness Falls 5.0 on imdb. A ok horror film. I like it because it's pretty decently thought out. The minor characters do start to listen to the guy in the know once he is shown to know what's going on.

Man, this was the centre of a lot of my nightmares when I was younger.
Paul (2011) IMHO Frost and Pegg's best movie. Not sure why it's not rated higher, it is simply brilliant.
The Last Starfighter (1984) Epic sci fi flick that was the first to use 3D rendered computer animation. The effects do NOT hold up, but the story sure does.
Chronicles of Riddick (2004) Sequel to Pitch Black and I personally like it much better. Admittedly, that's due to I like that Riddick aims more to sci fi and Pitch Black toward horror. If you like horror more, then you'd probably like Pitch Black better.
I didn't dislike Paul but better than Shaun and Hot Fuzz? Idk man that's really saying something. Agreed on your other movies tho :)

Space Truckers (1996)
This one flew under the radar because it apparently never got a proper US marketing campaign or something, but it’s an easy contender for cult classic. It’s campy, it’s colourful, it’s got some truly great practical fx work, it’s got Charles fucking Dance in it for some reason… it’s like a budget Fifth Element, but they pay attention to space physics, sorta. There’s also pigs in the shape of cubes, for easier stacking. Anyway, kinda blew me away when I stumbled upon it. YMMV, but I highly recommend.
Hell yeah thanks for the tip, sounds awesome
I generally watch 7 and above movies only, except for horror which tends to be rated lower. For that I watch 6 and above. So maybe you should watch horror from 5.5 and above based on your general rating (if you like horror that is)?
Had good fun with "Getting Any!" (https://imdb.com/de/title/tt0110524/)
Rated as 6.1
Couldnt find any worse rated that quickly in my library.
The Dark Backward (1991) - Judd Nelson and Bill Paxton play garbage men buddies in a trash-infested, dystopian city where everything pretty much sucks.
The sparkly vampire movies. I watched them with my daughter and loved them. She made fun of them and critiqued everything.i it at wanted to find out what happened next.
Imprinted on a child and now life long lovers? I'm in, where does this wild ride end?
I watched the entire “Kissing Booth” trilogy with a friend recently. They’re cute teen rom-coms and I enjoyed all of the movies and characters. The writing is corny, but it seemed to intentionally have a kind of theater club vibe to me. I kept thinking the cast must have had a lot of fun.
Should it be rated higher? No idea. I think ratings are stupid tbh.

I really liked the 2022 sci-fi movie 'Deus', 4.4/10 on IMDB.
