Quote this with the first four Horror movies that come to your mind that are 10/10s for you. No cheating. Just the first four that pop into your head.

The Haunting (1963)
The Shining (1980)
The Texas Chain-saw Massacre (1974)
The Thing (1982)

I’d add Advise and Consent to the list.

Got to see this one on the big screen at last. As usual, it did not disappoint.

Very saddened to hear of Robert Redford's passing. He seemed a man who walked his talk as best he could, and his work both in front of and behind the camera brought much joy.

Some favorites, in no order:

No TARDIS, DeLoreans, Terminators, or starships named Enterprise allowed, I guess?

To this day, I remain irrationally disappointed that Statham didn’t play a character named Detective Chaos in the movie CHAOS.

Lovely when you check into a hotel and find a painting of one of your favorite detectives in the lobby.
