Best to
worst
not so best:
pulp fiction
kill bill vol1/2
reservoir dogs
lock stock and 2 smoking barrels
dusk till dawn
Pretty much this IMO for the order. I'm a personal big fan of the Dusk Till Dawn movie, but appreciate its not as good as the others.
If you want violence, I'd also throw in The Raid.

Lock Stock is brilliant, definitely a good place to start, and like others have said follow it up with Snatch if you enjoy it!
Although a bit different to the others you should try The Last Samurai aswell

Pulp fiction is the must see on that list IMO. If you like it, it's a pretty safe bet you'll enjoy all of Tarrantino's stuff.
If I may throw some others into the mix, Goodfellas, Casino and The Departed are all excellent films, and you really should watch the Shawshank redemption if you havent already.
You've got some great viewing ahead anyhow, I'm a bit jealous. I haven't seen anything mind blowing in ages.

True Romance is one of my favourites.
Was going to throw that in the mix too. Great film
This too, would put it over the whole list
Pulp Fiction next
DTD
Reservoir Dogs/Lock Stock
All good enough films to watch though
Thought Django Unchained was a bit meh, thought it started well, but lost interest towards the end. Jackie Brown was OK, haven't really seen all of Natural Born Killers to really form a view, but haven't been in a rush to watch the whole thing after the bit I saw.
Not seen Kill Bill or Snatch

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

How spooky.
I've seen them before, but I watched Departed last month while I was having my infusion, and just started watching Casino last night!

i have all the films on the orginal list lined up to watch but a little unwell last cpl of days so didnt round to it should be able to watch 1 or 2 tomorrow
might stick with 1 and throw in a bit of a slapstick in there to stop the violence overload

I loved Dusk Till Dawn. Not everyone's cup of tea, obviously.
Is it rated PG?
needs more love!

I'm not a fan of graphic violence either tbh ironside, I'm okay with deaths as part of the plot but I don't like the lingering gory stuff.
In fact, when I say I've seen all of Tarrantino's films, heard them from behind a cushion is probably more accurate! Pulp fiction still one of my faves though, and Reservoir dogs and Jackie Brown are right up there, but you might want to give the Kill Bills a swerve.
Lock stock is great fun, if you like some humour to lighten things up you'll definitely enjoy it.
