5. Fast Color

We now come to an entry that might surprise a few of you – in fact, we’re expecting a majority of our readers to have never even heard of this movie – but it’s a really good one. Trust us.

Fast Color is a relatively low-budget movie that, due to studio issues, didn’t get anywhere near the marketing budget it was expecting.

As a result, it didn’t manage to reach much of an audience and only grossed a measly $76,916 at the box office – and that really, really is a crying shame.

It starred Gugu Mbatha-Raw as Ruth – a woman who possesses supernatural powers and is on the run from both law enforcement and the scientists who want to study and control her.

It’s much more grounded than the typical superhero movies starring Marvel and DC characters – it doesn’t have all the crazy action we’ve become accustomed to in superhero offerings – but Mbatha-Raw’s performance is nothing short of spectacular.

Although its execution is a little uneven at times, if you are, as we suggested, one of the many people who, sadly, haven’t even heard of this movie, we strongly recommend that you do everything you can to take a look at it – you really won’t regret it.
