Looking for any genre in particular? Old or new? I certainly have not seen enough for me to be satisfied, but I could recommend a few from what I have seen.
To start, a couple classics I really enjoyed:
Grand Illusion (Criterion disc available)
Forbidden Games (don't believe an R1 release is available)

Brotherhood of the Wolf is awesome, definitely get the 3 disc Canadian set. I also highly recommend Nid De Guepes (released straight to video here as The Nest) an awesome remake of Assault on Precinct 13 with some great action and acting. For action/comedy go to the TAXI series (before the atrocious Latifah remake hits) and like the previous poster, Wasabi is a nice lite semi-take on Leon:The Proffesional.

Le Pacte Des Loups is definitely great but it's an insane genre bender that mixes period drama, horror, and martial arts. So go into it with a real open mind or else you may not like it at first. Happens a lot.
