1-4 aren't lesser known, they're just a little older.
That said, Brotherhood of the Wolf is excellent. So is Kiss Kiss Bang Bang.
In addition:
The Big Bang (private eye mystery with Anontio Banderas)
Death Race 2000
Slither
Let the Right One In
Cherry 2000
They Live
Donny Darko

I watched that movie many years after it came out. It really surprised me. I didn't think it would be that good.
I want to see Let The Right One In. I need to look that one up.

I probably wouldn't have watched KK BB if I hadn't woken up one day and it was already 20 minutes or so into it.
Let the Right One In surprised me. It's really slow, but builds some really nice tension once you get into it.

Super (Rainn Wilson, Kevin Bacon, Liv Tyler, Ellen Page)
This movie has a great cast, a pretty good story, and has a lot of dark humor.
Page's character may be my favorite. She's a little out there and pretty hot.

Every time I accidentally clink two soda bottles together it's hard not to think of The Warriors.
Two lesser known comedies, both starring Albert Brooks, are also two of my favorites: Modern Romance and Lost in America.

Another Albert Brooks film that fits the bill: Defending Your Life

Whenever someone asks me for something to Netflix, that's my first recommendation. Outstanding movie.
