Just about anyone can come up with a Best of the Year list. That's why I like this list from Alex Billington of FirstShowing.net. He's culled together nearly 20 movies that got a bad break at the box office but deserve a second glance -- perhaps on DVD.

Here are his Best 19 Movies You Didn't See in 2007. You probably won't find many (or any of these) on critics' year-end lists but that doesn't mean you shouldn't see them.

We've included the films from his list along with its DVD release date. Click on each to sign up for a free and friendly reminder when they are available.
