Yes. i know exactly what you mean.
To mention a few:

To catch a killer,
Salem's lot,
The shining,
And for pure fun some of the real old vampire movies with Peter Chushing, Christopher Lee and Vincent price, i am partial to the odd "Mummy" film as well as long as it is really really low budget.

The princess bride not just your average, ordinary, everyday, run of the mill, ho-hum fairytale.

Dana Brown's "Dust to Glory"

It's a documentary on the SCORE Tecate Baja 1,000, but in interviewing the drivers, riders, officials, spectators, and crewman, you realize the race parallels humanity in a lot of strange and unique ways. It's not just racing, but family and friends bonding together, the young and old getting in touch with their heroes, and how a person's character allows them to overcome the adversity of trying to get a vehicle across 1,000 miles of Mexico's harshest wilderness.

I always tell people, even if you have no interest of any kind whatsoever in any form of auto racing, you STILL need to see this movie.
