My Favorite Movies

it's the best movie ever made.
that which all blockbusters are based upon, and it's got everything you need. Adventure movie, Family movie, Buddy movie, 'Nam movie blah blah, amazing acting, directing full of youthful exuberance and a frickin' SHARK.

funny, sad, poetic, amazing, infinitely watchable.
plus, girl directors score additional points.

I love this film. L-O-V-E it. And the afghan whigs are the house band in the bar. Scott Rosenberg has written a stellar script and it's like a coming of age movie for saturn returns. The epitome of what a high school reunion movie should be.

I used to watch this all the time in my mid teens, Ione Skye and Fairuza Balk in the same movie? Wow. Allison Anders direction is poignant, you'll wanna movie to a trailer in NM

As good as the book.
Cinematography and casting wow.
I love this.
And the soundtrack is one of the best out there.

If you haven't seen and loved this movei I can oinly assume you are dead.
The archetypal teen horror movie.
Look how hot keifer was pre jack bauer.

freddy is genuinely frightening in this one, and the johnny depp being spewed onto the ceiling by the bed scene -unmissable

when idiots rave avout a scanner darkly point them to this and feel smug. oh, and it's beautiful.

The greatest slasher movie ever made. EVER. period.

equal parts 40's noir, rivers edge, john hughes, society, david lynch and shaespeare....
definitely worth a watch

Forgotten gem , jared leto and jake gyllenhall in the same movie, about the 90s'? It's all too much for me.

Even besides the special effects this film was amazing.
Quotable, the reason I was scared of the tube when I was a kid, why did they make the worlds worst sequel?

At the time, I loved it.
Fantastic.
Kevin Williamson and Wes Craven you say? Sign me up.
Self referential slasher flicks started here

One of the best sequels ever.
And Timothy Olyphant, I love him.

The exact way a graphic novel should look on screen. Exactly!

Countless viewings of this and always something new is found.
it's a masterpiece

y'all know about my love for bruckheimar and simpson, which admittedly is strange for such an indie brat.. but I digress.
This was them at their pinnacle.
Fast flying, tom skerret,fucking Cruise.Kenny Loggins soundtrack AND that scene where goose dies?
too good.

Aaaahhhh, sweet bertolucci. watch it in summer, think about jacking in your whole life and moving to tuscany.

one of the best of the classic hammer horrors.
I used to watch this about once a week when I was a kid.
Christopher Lee is awesome - obviously his finest hour!

It makes you feel better about life, everytime.

well, it wasn't the same donna and it didn't clear very much up at all, but still lynch on form.

did I mention I love big budget monster movies?

As if David Lachapelle were making movies that Burroughs had written, dig?
Also the cast is super hot, rose mcgowan has never looked better

don't watch it with a fever, it will become confusing, without one it's beautiful and you can see why people started to slebrate wong kar wai after...

yeah, jonesin for bertolucci, incest/france in the 60s/beautiful camerawork= goodness

genius.
so good.
hella exc ited that it's just been released on DVD.
Wolfman doesn't got nuts!

what do you mean you haven't seen it? die.

never has a sadder and more beautiful sense of melancholy been captured on 32mm.

Reminds me of being a kid.

this movie IS the 90's.

while tim burton was still a miserable goth. fantastic!

who doesn't love indy?

mid 90's shoegazey soundtrack, james duvall, loads of people you know now in tiny bit parts, violent, sexy, wrong and great.

Allison Anders directorial debut , interesting, and good titles. A must when you're going through your mexican girl gangs phase.

one of the few multi director films that actually works. Aww, and tim roth, I miss tim roth, everyone is good but madonna, who ALWAYS sucks.

wow, a watchable comedic film, coming out of europe? insane!

suprisingly good, and gothy and an interesting look at *the monstrous* feminine.
oh, and the drug dealer is hot.

vampires. directed by a girl. with lance henrikson in it. how much better does it get?

grew up on it. and the political significance of 70s US horror is one of my favourite things to talk about, if you ever wanna?

The John Huges movues that time forgot.
round and round she goes, miuss amanda jones.

I went to see it at the cinema when I was 4. I have loved it ever since. Christ imagery aside.

I have never seen cinematography as awe inspiring as this. anywhere. ever.

sometimes a little schmaltzy but amazing nonetheless.

cinematography is stunning, characterisation is beautiful, all round visual treat.

If bret easton ellis made dark teen movies, this would be it. I love it. If you like this lots, then definitely check out the squid and the whale.
Oh, and jeff goldblum is hot for an old guy.

One of the first movies I saw that made me wanna be a film maker (watch out for ricky from my-so-called-life)
