This is the team of Groza, Scurra, and Marcusl. If you like this puzzle please vote in the Poll Tournaments section of the Grey Labyrinth. Thanks - MNOWAX
Those movie guys really screwed up this time. 30 movies in twin-packs instead of the one movie I really wanted!

And the first letters rearranged spell SPEED.
There. Done.
Edit: Apparently you had to order by number of elements in the set but I skipped this step.

One of the movies is U-571 and the other one, I'm sure, is sufficiently obscure to give us the U. |

Right you are (both of you.) That one is still up for grabs for people who want to scour imdb
Just a reminder to vote for this puzzle! Remember that more puzzle does not mean better puzzle... we put a lot of time into making a puzzle that would be just plain fun |

| They can lure you in with the puzzle, but they don't tell you about the side effects you get after solving it. I was on the toilet all night! |

Correct!
Did you know the movie already or did you find it? Just curious as to how obscure it really is |

HAHA!
I definitely did *not* know that movie already.
Super detective skills invizzed. At your suggestion, I cranked up IMDB and searched for titles that contained the word "U". IMDB thought it was a bad idea for me to look at the very long list of partial matches, but I did it anyway. Then I scanned all the ones that had little thumbnails of the movie posters for a name than *ended* with "U," and found the one that had a girl on it that looked like the girl in the hybrid photo in the puzzle. (That was the best part, because she's very easy on the eyes!) Google Image search with that movie name gave me the photo that you had used. |

That sounds suspiciously like the method I used to find the same picture  |
