This week, inbreds, drugged-up cops and Keanu Reeves.

Point Break (1991)
There seem to be a lot of people who gleefully count this as a guilty pleasure, but that's just offensive. Point Break is a great film. Made back when Gary Busey and that chick from Tank Girl could still get work, it's as intense an action thriller as you were likely to find in the 90s, what with ex-Presidents killing civilians, 100ft waves and the like. And a Red Hot Chilli Pepper gets shot in the foot. Extras None. Alex Godfrey

Bad Lieutenant (1992)
Famous for Keitel’s impromptu “hand shandy” solution to on-the-spot fines, as well as its harsh and intractable nature, Bad Lieutenant is a journey through one man’s twisted soul. Keitel’s performance is nothing short of magnificent as the surly policeman who’s worse than the crooks he shakes down. In a world of filth his struggle is to redeem himself by avenging a raped nun in a way that only a corrupt junkie New York cop can. Brutal, unflinching and occasionally a revelation. Extras Trailers, biographies. Mark Wyatt

The Cars That Ate Paris (1974)
No it’s not a garish 50s B-movie, it’s director Peter Weir’s macabre debut. And it’s not set in Gay Paree either. Paris is a rundown community in the Australian outback, where inbreds earn their keep by setting traps for passing cars then selling off the parts. And there’s a bonus if there are any survivors – they’re wheeled off to the local asylum for psychiatric experiments. Yum. Who’d have thought that lame fodder like Dead Poets Society and The Truman Show would follow? Extras None. Jonathan Carter 27 June 03
