Moni, the two movie titles that spring to my mind right now are "The Devil's Advocate", with Al Pacino, and "The Truman Show" with Jim Carrey. Not that new, but I saw both at the cinema and bought both and video, and have seen both at least thrice.

Moni, in another register entirely, go for Tim Burton's "Sleepy Hollow". If you like parodies of horror movies, you will have a big laugh.

Good choice!

One favourite movie is that Mel Brooks movie with Frankenstein, don´t know the original name cause the translators here have named all Brooks movies as something like "Det våras för xxxxxx" ie, it is time for xxxx, more or less...

Excellent old classic horror fun!
