FROM HELL IT CAME is probably my most obscure American-made film.  Overall, probably NIENG ARP (also sometimes titled ARB or VAMPIRE), a Cambodian vampire flick.

Ilsa: She-Wolf of the SS... is one of those movies I would like to see but couldnt... I remember seeing the VHS cover at my video store (back in the 1980's) and thought "Ok, how could I rent this movie... without my mother/sisters think I was renting porn)

My other video store didnt have a copy and niether did Blockbuster/Hollywood in the later 1990's...

Although I do see it on Netflix but I think most of the content isnt fun to watch with my sweetheart... :)

Even if your mother/sister caught you watching it they'd think it's porn.

Hmm.. got several obscure films, a few have been mentioned already.

Who Would Kill A Child? Not a bad film actually.

Zombie Child
Now this is an interesting one, it manages to pull off some real creepy scenes even though it's daytime.  Anyway, the story is about a woman who's hired to babysit a young girl for a family who recently lost their mother.  The young girl seems to be a bit morbid, and likes hanging out at the cemetery with her "friends" (and, she draws a lot of creepy pictures.)  

Come to think of it, I may have to re-watch that film and put up a review sometime...

Deadly Rivals
70s cheesefest about a ten year old boy who grows jealous of the new man in his mom's life, and decides to do something drastic about it...

The Annunciation
Okay, here's a weird one... Starts out with Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden.  They're tricked by the devil, the promise of knowledge if they eat the fruit, and our banished from the garden.  Well, Adam makes the devil live up to his end of the bargain and give them the knowledge he promised.  From there, Adam and Eve travel forward in time (the characters playing different roles in different periods.)  Course that makes the movie sound way more sensible than it is.  What's really weird about the film is that all the roles are played by children.  

I like the idea behind it though, it's one of those "I'm thinking of changing a few details and stealing it" ideas (although in my version, I think I'd have Satan be the only adult role).

Wu Tang Masters on VHS.  Crazy chop-suey kung fu film which features music stolen from Flash Gordon and "magic" that looks suspiciously like jumpy editing...  :)

Ring Zero
Not sure, but I think this was like the prequel movie that inspired Ringu and the America remake.  Haven't had a chance to watch it yet.

It was made after Ringu and tells the story of how the little girl became the way she was. The American version attempted to explain it all and sucked the life out of the story by doing so. Is it obvious I really dislike The Ring?

Flesh Eating Mothers

No one really seems to ever mention this movie.

We live in quite an interesting age. You can tell someone's sexual orientation and level of education from just their interests.

So there was more to it than "because she's a douche"? Interesting...

Funny, I own Ring 0 (bootleg vhs, as well as the rest of the Ringu series...)

I think I seen Ring 0 a dozen of times and still dont get it, many parts of the story is boring and I remember falling asleep watching it only to wake up after the final scene with a frying pan (dont want to give anything away... although if your watching Ring 0 you are likely to know what happen in the end of the story.)

My most obscure film I own is called "Son of Artpig". This movie was so bad that they couldn't even find a distributor for it. I happen to get a copy by a change meeting online with one of the actors/producers of the film.
It was ment to be a horror comedy but completely missed it's mark. A blind man shooting at the the broad side of a barn had a better chance of hitting it's mark than this film does.
The film is about a guy who is obsessed with a low budget studio's films and begins hanging around where he is hired to do odd jobs like mowing the grass and such. He eventually decides to kill everyone and take over. Needless to say it's a mess in general.
Movie Trivia Fact : O.J. Simpson was considered for the title role in The Terminator, but producers feared he was \"too nice\" to be taken seriously as a cold-blooded killer.<br />Isn\'t hindsight great.<br />A person is smart.

"Ghosts that still Walk"
Probably the most obscure one I have.
Thanks to the folks here!
And when he shall die
Take him and cut him into little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night,
And pay no worship to the garish sun.
