John Carpenter's underrated cult classic and ode to Rio Bravo, Assault on Precinct 13 has it all - endless hails of gunfire, an incredible score and an unintentionally hilarious femme fatale. It also has one of the most shocking scenes in film history involving a future Real Housewife of Beverly Hills. Got a smoke?
