Not just my favorite Indie, but my favorite movie period.

Paradise Lost: The Child Murders at Robin Hood Hills, and Hated:GG Allin were two indie documentaries I really enjoyed.
I prefer indie to mainstream movies geenerally and that list would be pretty long. Ghost world, Resevoir Dogs and Blood Simple would top my list though.

Forgot Down By Law and Straight To Hell.

Betty Blue/ 37°2 le matin 1986 French Film with Beatrice Dalle excellent movie.

WOW, a lot of great choices here.
Betty Blue is brilliant and kinda messed up in artistic sort of way.

I would have to say:
American Astronaut
Shallow Grave (Indie By American Standards)
Kurosawa "Dreams" (Indie By American Standards)
DogTown Z-Boys
La Dolce Vita

Bubba Hotep is a classic. I didn't know Escape From New York was an indie but that would definitely be my number 1. One that I will get a lot of flack for even mentioning is The Virgin Suicides. It was depressing and a little slow, but it had an effect on me. I am not anywhere near the type of parent depicted in the movie, but I do think of the movie sometimes when making parenting decisions.
