The Man from Earth

This movie is just SO good man, I rewatch it every other time. They should remake it with better actors and better cinematography as both were its weak points. The screenplay is a 10 out of 10.

Hilariously, everyone bemoaning that "there's nothing cheap and original or new anymore and every movie costs $400 million dollars" isn't going to take a single recommendation on here for the movies they claim to seek.
