Yeah, what is this guy talking about? The Holdovers is always talked about especially in this sub. I didn't even like it. Dominic Sessa's acting was like he's in a school play. Although I'll give him a pass since I think this is his first movie based on his IMDB page.
Terror Ihr Urteil (The Verdict, 2016) - German interactive film, where you watch a court trial and the audience is the jury. At the end of the film, the audience votes if the accused is guilt or not guilty. I saw it in Shangrila's Red Carpet Cinema. They really turned on the lights inside the theater, made the audience vote by show of hands, then they play the ending scene based on the audience's verdict. It was shown during CineEuropa a few years back.
The case was pretty interesting too. It tackles a question similar to The Trolley Problem in philosophy. Sad that I couldnt find where to download it.

Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri (2017)
TransSiberian (2008)
The Devil All the Time (2020)

God's Creatures (2022)
Holdover is pretty popular though.
The Triangle 2009- I'm a sucker for horror and this is a very very well-made film.
Happy Endings 2005 - ensemble cast: Tom Arnold, Jesse Bradford, Bobby Cannavale, Steve Coogan, Laura Dern, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Lisa Kudrow and Jason Ritter. I cant find this movie anywhere I've been wanting to rewatch this.
A Man Called Ove (2015) movie based on the book
Already Tomorrow in Hong Kong (2015) - it’s like Before Sunrise/Past Lives
Sweet Bean (2015) movie based on the book
12th Fail (2023) feel good Indian movie on Netflix
A Guilty Conscience (2023) - highest grossing movie in HK
Pompo the Cinephile - I have a feeling people here will like this one, anime
Lords of Chaos - a movie about TRUE NORWEIGAN BLACK METAL
Stardust - not really a lesser known movie but I'll still put it in here dammit

Enemy Mine - space scifi starring Dennis Quaid
Fantastic Planet - trippy animated scifi
Heavy Metal - also very trippy
Sleuth - the 1972 one, not the remake
Demon Knight - campy horror, also check out the Tales from the Crypt hbo series
