I would recommend Equilibrium or The Boondock Saints or Brotherhood of the Wolf.
All awesome movies 😊

I generally reccomend the works of Kurosawa to folks who need a good film. Seven Samurai and Yojimbo are both good, with Mifune being a japanese Clint Eastwood - grity, rough, yet on the good guy’s side.. maybe.

3: It is not our responsibility to disprove your claims, but rather your responsibility to prove them.
4. Personal testamonials are not proof.

But are they as good as a movie starring a Mexican made monster flying bird puppet from an anti matter galaxy?

. . . If you are asking if they have the same level of quality, then no, no they do not.

If you’re looking for something on the same level of quality, only one movie will do:  Manos, Hands of Fate!

Even though “The Giant Claw” has much to recommend it, I would go with “It Came From Beneath the Sea” or “The Giant Behemoth”. You just can’t beat early Harryhausen. If I wanted real Mexican cheese, then I suppose it would have to be “The Black Scorpion”.

Well I just watch The Giant Claw in it’s entirety. All rather silly but not as boring as I would’ve expected. I can see why it would’ve been a flop though.
