[@kemouse]

I really liked 1BR, Freaks and Bad Day for the Cut and Lawless. I didn't get into Space Sweepers but I might check again. I like the recommendations and will give them a shot. Good Burger is a good one too. Oh yeah Legends, a remake of The Krays or at least the same story was good.

[@carloshernandez-bm7hp]

1BR and freaks should be in the top 5

[@xavierrodrigues4958]

Lol 👍

[@krazytaxicabbie]

Oh snap! He did it for us.

No all heroes wear capes

[@milaberenchein2697]

Thanks!!!

[@burhanuddinsubekti6931]

Thanks we need list of those movies

[@mdlahey3874]

An especially rewarding "hidden gems" list, at least for me. I really appreciate Darren's up-front descriptions that include cues such as "very dark", "bloody", etc., because I tend to avoid such films etc. Thank you, Darren!

[@andreac5724]

"A Single Man" is really freaking good. Tom Ford makes everything and everyone beautiful

[@simbear33]

I love Tom Ford, he has great style and makes great movies!! I loved a Single Man, saw it when it first came out and Nocturnal Animals was great!!

[@WestonEvans]

A classic Flick Connection hidden gem video? I can barely contain my excitement. Lists like these are what drew me in, the cool host dude is why I stuck around.

[@NoOneYaKnow666]

I used to not like movies with subtitles. The incredible 'Downfall' cured me of that. One of my favorite movies to this day!

[@whalecove1283]

Philomena is amazing, good pick. Had to pick my heart off the floor, no worries, used my tears to rinse it off.

[@phantomverse5386]

FREAKS was recommended to me as a hidden gem or whatever and I watched it with 0 knowledge. Instantly one of my favorite movies. Watched it twice the first day and a few times since. Sooooooo goooood

[@bayumuliasa4868]

Agreed. Freaks is surprisingly a very good movie.

[@phantomverse5386]

@@bayumuliasa4868 I was blown away by everything about it. The story telling, world building, acting, cinematography, all of it. No movie has ever kept me guessing so long and payed off so perfectly.

[@gabrielalamberti5860]

The invisible guest was amazing! Ditto for Next Gen Eye for an Eye

[@claudiasauceda38]

Invisible Guest was a 10/10! I immediately rewatched it after seeing it.

[@MrLando0]

I LOVE A Ghost Story! Highly recommend.

[@SamIIs]

I know exactly what to expect by watching Flick Connection reviews, I've never seen better reviews of a very broad selection of little know films, this channel is a hidden gem in itself. Great Job...!!!

[@belindacinca7275]

I’ve previously watched Philomena and The Single Man. They are both outstanding movies, beautifully done.

[@grunt1807]

How are you not at 1 million subscribers? This is probably one of the best review channels by far.

[@fullmetalt-shirt8355]

Loved The Invisible Guest! So worth the subtitles... awesome movie. I hope they remake it in English and do it right.

[@patrick_K76]

Oh yes baby! 😍😍 second Flick video from the Darren-meist in as many days...so stoked...and thanks again for your time and effort - your videos make a huge difference and simplify our streaming lives beyond what you could imagine ...much respect and appreciation, Darren...can’t wait to check out these movies I have seen yet 👌🏼👌🏼👍🏻😎

[@evilroy6568]

Best movie recommendations on KZbin.

[@tavferry3301]

Legend is thoroughly enjoyable. As a twin, he did us justice.

[@ecrusch]

Easily one of the best movie suggestion channels I know of. You have saved a boring evening for me; I don't know how many times. Thank you...again.

[@thefaceless8796]

I enjoyed the block island sound. Pretty sweet take on the surprise in the end. Especially like the words they through up in the end about us and our relation to fish.

[@bruh_hahaha]

OMG!!! Thank you SO much for recommending The Invisible Guest. I LOVE IT. You have great taste in movies my friend. 😁🍿😁🍿😁

[@jenn_in_texas361]

Don't know if it's considered a hidden gem or not, but I recently watched Cargo. I've heard the recommendations for it...and I really liked it. It stayed with me.

[@Wonkabar007]

"Bad Day For The Cut" was a good watch and could have alternatively been titled, "When a Farmer Goes Postal" 😄

[@michaelking4578]

I'm about to watch that now. I was thinking "Farmer Falling Down" when watching the preview.

[@mrspikiespike4807]

@robert punu spammer...bugger off

[@jcwoodman5285]

Space sweepers was outstanding!🤗...

[@Lizzard2060]

I watched FREAKS bc you recommended it b4 and I loved it!!!

[@danajacobsen2878]

Thanks for recommending The Invisible Guest. Well done, kept me guessing right to the end.

[@jpicard81]

Just watched freaks cuz of ur recommendation, did not disappoint. Exact reason why I sub

[@ToeCutter454]

Space Sweepers was really good, been watching a lot of Korean shows on Netflix and they're just above and beyond what they're doing in Hollywood over here. they take you on quite a trip of ups and downs and constant turns so you're never quite sure what actually is going to happen next so if you're someone like that that can usually read the tone of a movie/show and pretty much predict what's coming next i highly recommend watching those Korean shows because they do a really good job making you think you know what's coming and then introducing a whole new element that throws things into another direction!

[@michaelbrawdy1907]

Well i have been following you for a good 6 months now and occasionally watch your recommendations. Today i decided to watch AVENGEMENT after hearing your review and wow!!! That was a damn good flick. Keep up the great work and thanks for the recommendations.

[@markmaioli4]

Lawless and Legend are both excellent. Hardy is amazing in Legend!

[@elprieto675]

Mr Darren Van Dam aka "the Dam Man!!" Your channel is extremely underrated bro!!

[@GernickKuik]

Philomena is great, heartwrenching at times but as it is a true story you have to just watch it, Philomena lived it. Steve Coogan is great as a journalist helping her trying to find a child she was forced to give up. Paranoman is by the phenomenal Studio Laika who gave us Coraline, The Boxtrolls, Missing Link and Kubo! So it's great fun with heart. I will now have to check out Space Sweepers, The Invisible Guest and A Ghost Story, Eye for an Eye and maybe even more on this list, Thanks Darren!

[@kenwenman9579]

The original 1990 movie "The Krays" was far, far superior to "Legend." It has one of the best movie lines when the Kray twins are asked if they know the Beatles and one of them says, "I'm sure they've heard of us."

[@bigal3928]

"Crocodile"

[@caroles5258]

I loved A Ghost Story, Space Sweepers and The Invisible Guest

[@kevinbender5070]

Invisible guest was amazing just wow.

[@starrwilson6818]

I always look forward to these and often check out many of them. Thanks.💜

[@SweetColo]

Your recommendations are great, I’m always waiting for these to setup my viewing list . Thanks for all your work!

[@wistfulvista1020]

I don't mind reading a movie once in a while. I'll give The Invisible Guest a bid.

[@WhatAboutZoidberg]

Definitely looking forward to A ghost story, that sounds right up my alley for a Saturday night, late watch. The invisible guest also has piqued my interest, love me some intense Mexican cinema.

[@schiziodcrown]

The Invisible Guest has a insane twist at the end that i did not expect.space sweepers and a ghost story are really good films too.

[@michaelcanning2815]

Finally watched Avengement!!! DUUUUUUDE! I am truly sorry I slept on this recommendation! Watching it again & passing on the recommendation! Thanks again!

[@rileshmulmi2385]

I have watched Pan's Labyrinth with sub titles as you have recommended and I love this very much. Thanks for recommending such a wonderful movie

[@brandons4240]

Sweetheart is surprisingly good one of the best creature features in the last decade. The Invisible Guest is a masterpiece and Avengement is a hell of a good watch

[@stevejorde]

A Ghost Story was excellent!

[@StevenSchmid]

Avengement was EXCELLENT. Thank you!

[@j.n.jacksonjr.170]

Just watched because of Darrens recommendations, great movie!

[@andreashaynes3346]

Superb list, Darren. Many thanks for Flick Connection. Avengement, in particular, is great!! Take care and looking forward to your next presentation 💯💯

[@easypeezie4494]

Extraction was amazing!

[@jatindertaneja6098]

The Invisible Guest, at No. 1 in this list is one of my all time favourite thrillers. It was so good until the last frame that I literally did not move for the entire length. This is also the kind of movie that Hollywood needs to watch. Don't bother about watching it with subtitles. It is so worth it, you will thank yourself!! Yes, that awesome!!

[@EmeraldRubyTea]

Dude! Extraction was DA BOMB! You don’t know what you are talking about!!!...😊😊😊...with ❤️.

[@johannasbelasco1822]

Darren van dam bam I'm the man. That Sacred killing of a 🦌 deer. Was extremely creepy and Kubrickish. The tone the cinematic way it was shot and music was soo good. Kubrick would be proud.

Saw "Bad Day For The Cut" years ago when you first recommended it and it's still a good watch today!

[@Black_Blow_Fly]

Alright just in time for the weekend - thanks Darren !!! 👍👍👍

[@d.c.1059]

Thanks for dropping the video Darren, I've come to really look forward to these...

[@d.c.1059]

The Founder is a great period piece AND I would say something that should not be missed for many of us who grew up with a strong desire for McDonalds whether we got to eat it that much or NOT.

[@ms.m7995]

Can't wait to dig in. Will start with Freaks. Thank you!

[@mike_vocal]

BEST CHANNEL EVER! We appreciate you brother.

This is awesome! Subbed and put notifications on.

Dude! Good list with quite a few things I haven't heard of yet. Which is rare because we watch SO much. Looking forward to watching a few of these.

[@watchtrainsnow1099]

I’ve been waiting for Legend for a long time. I’m watching it tonight. Thanks!

Extraction was awesome, I liked it a lot

[@alissarobertson8840]

The Founder is a very good well done movie.

I wish some exec would finally realize you belong on network/cable doing film review. Flattery sincere.

[@citizenx3801]

Your recommendations are always on point.

[@mrspikiespike4807]

Thank you so much. Most of these I have seen and are solid picks. I'll make sure I cross another 4 of this list before the week is done. Keep up the good work!

[@barrettdowning2083]

Paranorman is awesome...my don was young when he first saw this and he's fourteen and we still watch it together 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

[@jamestnov41945]

I have watched 4 of the movies on this list and intend to watch number 6 7 8. All first class picks. I loved Block Island.

[@MsChunky666]

Hidden gem. Romeo is Bleeding. Not sure if you've ever had this on your lists

[@simbear33]

Excellent movie and Gary Oldman, well what can you say, he's Fantastic as always LOL

[@Original-Juice]

I'm a simple man. When I see a Scott Adkins movie I actually haven't seen yet, i'm on it. ASAP.

[@tatianadee3120]

Bad day for the cut, avengement and lawless were such good movies thanks for recommending them

[@TheFeliciakelley]

Para Norman is a great watch!! I love the bully!!!❤️❤️❤️

[@CatJabZ]

"The Invisible Guest" is such a great mystery triller! Very Hitchcock. Writer director Oriol Paulo also has "Mirage" on Netflix now as well which is a really great kind of sci fi time "traveling" movie that is worth a watch. Thanks for the list!

[@mece66]

Unexpected Philomena! Damn that was a great movie. It came up on tv of all places and I just got stuck watching it. Not something I'd expect to watch or like, but it was great, and it really stuck with me.

[@chriscostello117]

Space Sweepers has stuck in my mind since I watched it from your insight . Awesome stuff. Its pushing me towards Sisyphus . As well at The Witch.

[@goofsaddggkle7351]

Bad Day for the Cut was such an understated but great watch.

[@kikimugi2717]

Sweat Heart is a fav and I watch it again, now and then. Good list...thank you.

[@simbear33]

Freaks was EXCELLENT, totally LOVED Sweetheart, Lawless was GREAT, ParaNorman is totally enjoyable and a cute movie and finally Legend was INCREDIBLE, I am a huge Tom Hardy fan and he was excellent in Legend and Lawless!! I have never heard of a few of these movies, but will definitely be checking them out. thanks for the reviews!!

[@vidabacevicius9567]

Just watched Shutter Island. Really enjoyed it!! Love your recommendations. Under the Skin and Burning are also two really great films. thanks :)

[@meandyouplay2]

Watching this I caught a feeling reminding me of when I was working at Blockbuster talking movies with my guests and co-workers. 🤙

[@bern1228]

Thanks to you and your Patreons. I've watched "Extraction" and thouroughly enjoyed it. I don't mind subtitles and will have them on even for English speaking movies to get past the music and explosions overlay. Spain has some intreresting things coming out I'm looking forward to. One thing / category I'd like to see you do are the series/limited series sets. There is a Spanish Series dedicated to real life haunting that look interesting. Again, Thanks!

[@alanjosephjohnson]

Thanks Darren - please send more spanish and Italian films. The recent Spanish recommendations have been very good!

[@alanjosephjohnson]

I watched Piranhas on Amazon Prime, based on a book by the outstanding author Roberto Saviano, who serves up authentic storytelling about life in Naples and the crime syndicate La Comorra Highly recommend. Similar in some ways to Sky High from this list but more raw and drawing on Italian neoclassical film influences such as the use of young / children actors. The Italians wanted better for the next generation after WW2 than what the street kids in Piranhas got from life.

[@davidmancini8286]

Extraction was awesome I loved it.

[@vidabacevicius9567]

The Kray Brothers is one of my faves. Bronson and The Revenant are by far my favorites of Tom Hardy

[@lindseyhatfield9017]

I enjoyed Sweetheart, you recomended it once before, THanks mate.

[@anthonykent00]

Paranorman!!! Please, always, recommend Laika films! Definitely the best animation studio, as long as they stay open. A Single Man was really great. I think pacing more than content will be the deciding factor for viewers.

[@kevinintheusa8984]

To be fair, the guys who came up with a faster way to make burgers were trying to screw over Ray Kroc first and the then came up with a plan to turn it back on them. He figured out that leasing the land to franchises was where the money would be and not necessarily in how much food they were selling. It is the standard for any franchise today and Ray Kroc came up with it. Guy was a genius and he McDonald's would be nothing had he not came up with it.

[@demonicsweaters]

Thank you again. My week is NEVER complete unless I see your lists and excellent list. I have never seen Good Burger so that's the top of my list. Thanks and I'll keep watching and liking.

Invisible guest is FANTASTICO

[@Paulnikon]

Great list of movies. Proud to say I have already seen a few of these. Will probably watch one as soon as this video is done.

[@davidpietarila699]

Lawless has become kind of a go-to movie for me... if I'm not really "feeling" anything that showing up, I'll put Lawless back on. And Extraction is worth watching for the mens room assassination scene alone.
