For anyone who loves a classic fairy-tale, Ever After is the movie for you! Drew Barrymore gives one of her best performances as Danielle, a Cinderella-esque character who must overcome her situation at home to find the prince of her dreams. Angelica Huston is also brilliant in her role as the evil step-mother, and will have you cracking up for scenes. Without a doubt this movie will have you thinking happily ever after :)

House of Wax (1933)
Not too long ago in 2005, Hollywood did a remake of this old thriller, starring Chad Michael Murray and Paris Hilton. Even though House of Wax went on to do well at the box office, it was mostly disliked by critics. However, the original version will not disappoint. Vincent Price's haunting voice and creepy demeanor will have you melting in your seat!
Tombstone
Stand By Me
Stand By Me has got to be one of the best film products of the 80s. Set in a small town in Oregon, Stand By Me follows four friends as they attempt to find their classmate's dead body. This movie is so good that Family Guy even did a parody about it. And if it's on Family Guy, then you know it's A-mazing. LOL ;)

The Rescuers
One of Disney's most underrated classics, The Rescuers is the perfect family adventure. Working on the case of Penny, a missing orphan girl, two mice detectives get themselves into a world of trouble when they run into the evil Madame Medusa. Filled with feisty crocodiles, drunken field mice, and a whole group of vibrant bayou characters, The Rescuers is packed with just the right amount of danger and fun. Go see it if you haven't already ;)
The Swan Princess
The Swan Princess is one of the most enjoyable animated features of all time, and it's not a product of Disney! Opening with the hilarious song "This Is My Idea," the Swan Princess only gets better with each passing scene. With a dynamic cast of characters, including a love-hungry frog, brave puffin, and easy-going turtle, the Swan Princess is sure to touch the hearts of all children and their parents. This is an animated musical at its best!
Oceans Eleven (Rat Pack version)
Nothing beats the original! I didn't watch all of the latest Ocean's Eleven, but I bet Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin blow George Clooney and Brad Pitt out of the water any day. With the glitz and glamor of a budding Las Vegas, this movie shines like all the other Rat Pack films. This movie will have you singing "Eee-O-Eleven!"
