Our journey through the lesser-known films of the 2000s continues. This week, it's 2003...
It was the year that Arnold Schwarzenegger went from Terminator actor to Governor of California, and when The Lord Of The Rings: The Return Of The King dominated the global box office with a gross of more than $1bn. 2003 was also the year the Wachowskis' Matrix trilogy thundered to a close, the year Freddy Krueger clashed with Jason Voorhees in, er, Freddy Vs Jason, and the year Pixar scored another hit with Finding Nemo.
But as you've probably gathered by now, 2003 was also a year of quite brilliant, less lucrative films. The movies we've included in this week's list were chosen for a variety of reasons - some were ignored in cinemas, while others were harshly treated by critics. Some were modestly popular or given awards on release,...

Director: Daniel Benmayor.
Writer: Mario Schoendorff.
Paintball is a film shot in Spain by first time director Daniel Benmayor. Partially produced by European film company Filmax, Paintball was released on DVD in North America late in 2010. The film is amateurish early with little character development, while this horror train begins to pick up speed by the last third of the film. But will the pacing issues, lack of characterizations, and poor acting get viewers to the final act? This reviewer barely made it; yet, others will likely get off at the first available station.
Several semi-pro paintballers head out into the local mountains for a weekend of fun and simulated battle good times. Set to capture the opponents flags, this squad, led by David (Brendan Mackey) do everything wrong in the paintball rule book. Soon masks are hanging loosely around necks, characters are screaming, while few characters use cover, to protect themselves from future welts.

We first heard about Spanish scare flick Paintball last September and ever since we wondered if you could really get a credible horror film, out of the premise of a “Paintballing” tournament. Well after watching the first teaser, it seems local film house Filmax might just have pulled something off. The Trailer of course isn’t giving a hell of a lot (helped by the fact its been shot in what looks like infra red) away, but its intriguing enough to want to see more - Done it’s job well then. The movie is helmed by first time director Daniel Benmayor and stars Jennifer Matter, Patrick Regis, Brendan Mackey, Neil Maskell. Cue a very long synopsis to read, or head straight down the page to the teaser:...
