I'm sure there's plenty threads like this around but I didn't see one that was posted recently.
So basically, what are your top 10 favorite films of all time? Your top 10 doesn't have to be in order, I know I wont be able to specify the order of mine.

My Top 10 (July 2014):

1. 2001: A Space Odyssey

2. Kill Bill Vol. 1

3. Fargo

4. American Movie

5. The Good, The Bad and The Ugly

6. 12 Angry Men

7. Taxi Driver

8. Barton Fink

9. Dead Alive

10. Antichrist


My Top 10 (June 2013):
1. Ghostbusters - Loved the film when I first saw it as a kid and still love it to this day. Granted not the most "artistic" film but will always stay in my top 10.

2. The Dark Knight - Went to see it 3 days in a row when it opened, blew me away and still does.

3. Pulp Fiction - I don't think I need to say anything about this one.

4. Back to the Future - Falls to the same category as Ghostbusters, loved it from a young age and still remains as one my all time favorites. This movie matches so many genres together and makes it work really well.

5. Apocalypse Now - No other war movie like this, a true masterpiece.

6. Alien - My all time favorite horror movie. The creepy atmosphere of the film speaks for itself and as a huge fan of practical effects I love it.

7. The Good, the Bad and the Ugly - They used to show this on TV all the time when I was a kid, probably my most watched movie.

8. Kill Bill: Vol. 1 - This one only gets better every time I see it. Brilliant writing and some of the best fight scenes in recent cinema.

9. Fight Club - Inspirational film and one that really makes you think and consider your life.

10. Clerks II - I only recently watched this and it kept me laughing all the way through, my favorite comedy (close runner-up is Shaun of the Dead). If you're planning on watching it for the first time, I suggest watching the original Clerks first and then moving on to this one, as you will most likely miss some of the hilarious references to the first film.

Some honorable mentions
Biutiful, Zodiac, Aliens, Se7en, Django Unchained, Donnie Darko, American Psycho, Snatch., 2001: A Space Odyssey, The Shining, Halloween, Terminator 2, First Blood

So... That was my top 10. Looking forward to seeing all of your lists.

Also worth mentioning, Borat is probably my all time favorite comedy movie

Ghostrider and Daredevil aren't underrated, they're trash. I'm not dogging on you for liking them, but your definition of underrated is a bit off.
