I would unsuggest Tom's Swordfish, while entertaining, it requires no further discussion and dissection.

Other films I would consider are...

Videodrome
Naked Lunch (really any Cronenberg
12 Monkeys
21 Grams
28 Days Later (Technical merits)
American Psycho
Apocalyspe Now
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
Rear Window
The Birds
Audition
Barton Fink
Miller's Crossing
Citizen Kane
Magnolia
The Machinist
Midnight Cowboy
Pi
Primer
Straw Dogs
any Kurosawa films
Taxi Driver
To Kill a Mockingbird
He's looking for modern films only, but I'd 2nd the following on your list.

28 Days Later
Magnolia
The Machinist
Pi
