What's a TV movie you highly recommend? As in a film that never got a cinema release but was made for television.

BBC Neverwhere TV series 1996.
Neil Gaiman
Compares very well to alice in wonderland

Children of Men. Snowpiercer (2013).

Dark Night of the Scarecrow. A surprisingly well done horror slasher for being early 80s and made for tv.

THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF MISS JANE PITMAN (1974)

THE NIGHT STALKER (1972)

One of my favorites I watch every year at Halloween.....it's called Trick R' Treat. Pretty sure it was only shown at a couple film festivals before it was released to video/tv.

Defiance 1980 with jan michael vincent, the movie found its success when played on cable tv.

it's on youtube i believe, if you like vigilante films, it is a great film, a hidden gem.

Trilogy of Terror 1975
The killer Zuni doll segment freaked out a nation of children when it was broadcast.

"A walk in the clouds", starring keanu reeves. this is a chic flick. if you're a guy you won't get it at all

tremors shrieker island is good, so is most of the shark films from scify

Do Netflix films count as made for TV movies? If so, then [u]I'm thinking of ending things[/u].

The Last Don (1997). It was actually a miniseries, but a decent one.

I really like to watch 10.5 part one and two

Halloweentown was a banger

The Hunt. It's a netflix movie.

Marvellous (2014)

The Thornbirds

Salem's Lot. Surprisingly spooky. It was a miniseries, actually, directed by Tobe Hooper(Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Poltergeist).

I have been searching for a made for TV mini-series that was about desegregation and MLK and the civil rights movement. It was a big deal but I cannot recall the name and struggle to find it in searches.
