The entertainment industry is in total collpase. Star Wars, Harry Potter, Iron Man, Capt America, Batman, Superman, Twlight, Fantastic Beasts, Insidious, Independence Day, Logan....All garbage. Can anyone recommend any decent movies that have come out in the last few years. There have been literally no mainstream movies in the last 10 years or so that are any good. So I'm looking for more underground movies that might peak my interest. In terms of genre I'm not fussy. I love independant horror, thrillers and even the occasional love story. Anyone who can suggest a really great movie will be in my good books which as you all know is a great place to be.

Movies used to be fucking glorious. Star Wars is glorified bullshit.

I agree, the digital age is an age of mostly shit movies but "Edge of Tomorrow" and "Doctor Strange" are very good big budget blockbusters.

I haven't seen Dr Strange yet. I'm not really a fan of modern superhero movies but I will certainly at least give it a go.

Passion (2012) by Brian De Palma. Hardly distributed at all, which is a shame since I think it's his best movie in ages.
e2a: Anything by Terrence Malick.

Rigor Mortis is a highly overlooked gem of a film. Great visuals and fantastic story. I watched it cold knowing nothing about it and was shocked at how good it is. It's free on You Tube. It's kind of a horror but without the gore and more story related. Take care

Loved The Witch. A very classy, smart horror film which moved the horror genre into the realm of the art film. Beautifully made. That little boy should have gotten a best supporting oscar nom.

One group that is trying to put out films that go against the big budget blockbuster grain is A24 films. The three films I mentioned earlier, The VVitch, Swiss Army Man, and The Lobster, are all A24 products. If you are in the mood for something that isn't the cookie cutter film for mass consumption, I would start by looking at what's coming from them. Of course with films that aren't for the masses, there's a chance that you will REALLY LOVE or REALLY HATE the film. But that's the risk the lower budget films can take. They can go "out there" and be a little creative even when that vision really doesn't hit home for too many, it's not such a monetary loss. The VVitch is such a film, that IMHO, hit a home run with capturing an unsettling tone with it's Puritan morality tale of horror. Here's the studio's website, looks like they have plenty in store: A24

Here's a list of 77 of my favorite titles that are neither mainstream nor very well known, including some documentaries (and even a few TV-shows). Although quite a few of them have come out more than ten years ago, I'm sure you'll find some films you will like here. Amazing films/TV-shows that deserve a bigger audience (short comment/review included): www.imdb.com/list/ls070242495/

The Prowler is a good obscure horror movie.
