Movies
Foreign films; anything black & white; anime; good SF films; trashy SF films as long as they have less than 3 stars on the rating system, in fact no stars is even better.
Occasional Hollywood type films of course, but what really grabs me is any interesting independent film-making. Take for instance the mesmerisingly breaktaking film Kelling Brae directed by Alan Miller:

Books
Carol Ann Duffy's 'Rapture' is a real must for anyone romantic, or anyone who isn't a romantic. Anything by Bill Higginson: check his sites on the haiku links at Area 17.Heroes
