They are all worth seeing, despite many (for me anyway) not quite working overall. A Life Less Ordinary and The Beach especially. They still all have interesting elements and a film making quality to them.
I would recomend Strumpet though. Not everyone's cup of tea, but definately seems a trial run for Slumdog (modern urban fairytale, hand-held DV cameras, warmth to the bleak environments, homeless girls and a frantic chase to a TV studio for the finale. Plus also he's clearly having some fun with the freedom of a no budget and easy to use DV cameras (clearly serving as a trial run for 28 Days Later) And Chris Ecceleston is excellent in it!
Vacuuming Completely Nude in Paradise has a great performance from Timothy Spall, and a mad-cap energy and some hilarious bits (his motivational tape for example), but i found it a bit grating after a while.
