Basically unknown, jerks you back and forth between genres, simultaneously art house and amateur, and the main character is named Lemmy Caution. Sure he’s a government agent, but he’s the good guy out to destroy the mind control computer on a distant planet by pitting daughter against father.

I’ll nominate an underdog: Alphaville.

This is really cool
