For me it'd be:
the brood
the tenant
cronos
ichi the killer
die hard set
Brood is $5.88 at Wal*Mart.
Tenant / Cronos can be had cheaply (in terms of price) as well (DDD)
Die Hard is great and can gotten extremely inexpensively from Canada. (Anybody remember the HMV Deal?)
Ichi I've never seen but my business partner RaVeS about it (near incessantly at times) so my curiosity is piqued. Gifts that are from out of left field are sometimes the best as far as I'm concerned.

DVD Talk Hero
Cronos - Hard to beat Guillermo Del Toro for a stylish movie (I would also highly recommend The Devil's Backbone)
Die Hard Boxset - Bruce Willis + guns + bad guys = wall2wall fun
Ichi the Killer & Visitor Q - Takashi Miike, 'nuff said
I noticed he already has Audition, so if he's getting a strong interest in Takashi Miike I'd recommend a new biography about him called "Agitator" that's out in hard and softcover.
