Under the radar ...

Taissa Farmiga might be enough to get us to someday rent the horror spoof "The Final Girls."

The rapper Rhymefest searches out his roots in Chicago in the documentary "In My Father's House."

Where did you spend the '90? I was in Tower Records most of that time, so I'm partial to a documentary about the mega-music store, "All Things Must Pass."

A one-hour documentary set on the grungy corner of 125th and Lexington in New York, "Field Niggas."

From 1988, Agnes Varda's biography of the iconic Jane Birkin, "Jane B. Par Agnes V."

Despite the red flags, Lenny Abrahamson ("Frank") and Brie Larson ("Short Term 12") draw us to the mother-son drama "Room."

Chilean Patricio Guzman follows up the haunting "Nostalgia for the Light" with another rumination, "The Pearl Button."

Sebastian Silva ("The Maid," "Crystal Fairy") has enough of a track record to draw us to his latest oddity (featuring Kristen Wiig), "Nasty Baby."
