I played the heck out of TankPot back in the day. One of the best early games to have a high number of simultaneous multi-player, I think 64, split poverty 4 teams of tanks. Played through the browser, it moved around to different sites a few times over the years and now has its own dedicated site:

The games I've made.
Maybe not super obscure, but I loved BMX XXX on the original Xbox. It was overshadowed my the plethora of other games like Tony Hawk, Aggressive Inline and SSX but I still love it.

When I was a child I saw a stop motion animation called 3 Little Pigs Sing a Gig. It was this rather surreal, felt puppet musical of the aforementioned nursery rhyme.
Captain Zoom in Outerspace
It was direct to TV Galaxy Quest before Galaxy Quest.
Legacy of the wizard, rygar, cypher (strider)
I remember Rygar.
No idea what the movie’s actual title was but there is a wonderfully poorly dubbed kung fu movie by the American title “Shaolin V Ninja”
The voices are terrible, sometimes the characters answer their own questions, music is stolen from Star Trek II at points and it features probably the best “I’ve been stabbed” sound in cinematic history at about 1 hour, 13 minutes. Highly recommend. https://youtu.be/h6iYROUoHUE?si=6h7DzxRMD6x4YSLl
Also it’s that specific dub, there seems to be a more shared version on youtube that is better translated (and not as stupid).
A former roommate of mine had a DVD he had gotten from a friend who got it from a film festival. I believe it was Dreamscape but I haven't been able to find a copy to confirm this actually it.

Chromadrome 2. A PC game about simply controlling a small blob-thing speeding down a straight path with holes and other obstacles and keeping it away from them. Sorry of a precursor to mobile games such as subway surfer or whatever they are called. Never met someone who heard about it even though it made it's way onto Steam many years later.
There's this youtube channel, on which someone does piano fugue improvisations, it is really good, and it has only a few thousand views
Here is an example, but there are more: https://youtu.be/YLW47a6Jk50?si=6coaJGDotT9B3JU1
There's also hours long live session during which he improvise many baroque pieces, I listen to it every now and then, and it's always a blast
The film Hey, Stop Stabbing Me! is reminiscent of early Parker & Stone or Troma, and the title basically says it all. In spite of its non-existent budget and inexperienced cast, I recall it being competently paced and downright hilarious (on purpose!), including multiple memorable quotes such as "don't be making fun of my hoe-saw," "dude, she's twelve," "comparative literature," and naturally, the titular "hey, stop stabbing me!"
