- Ugh, The Old Dark House is such a treasure. So funny, so charming, even kinda spooky. A must see!
- Viy is also a treasure, what a delightfully theatrical fairy tale of a film.
- A reader called The Children "a gold standard creepy kids movie" and I totally agree! It's such a nasty little gem.
- A big heck yeah to Thelma getting some love! I mentioned on my Top 20 that it almost made my list and that is the truth. A gorgeous film with filled with *chefs kiss* actressing.
- I am not a musicals gal but holy crapping crap do I love The Lure.
- I try not to think about the fact that I was due to see a theatrical production of The Woman in Black in NYC this past April, but...well, we've all missed out on cool opportunities over the last nine months, I'm sure. Still. This pandemic sucks big ass! But we'll get through it. Right?
Oof, that reminded me I had a ticket to see Alan Cumming in Endgame at the Old Vic in March. But it also reminded me to re-watch Witchboard, so there's that!
ReplyDeleteI REALLY need to see Witchboard. I've never seen Witchboard!! Who put me in charge of this blog?
ReplyDeleteIt absolutely held up from all my childhood memories. Stars Patch from Days of Our Lives!
DeleteI was going to see Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, and go to Women with Guts, and see Bikini Kill right after my 50th b'day. Pandemic prolongation sucks.
ReplyDeleteSure does.
DeleteI saw Bikini Kill all 4 times they played here in L.A., and every performance was full of joy. The wait will be worth it when they finally get to do the makeup performances that got delayed for you
DeleteI was supposed to give a presentation lecture thing at Women with Guts! It was gonna be such a dope weekend. Hopefully it'll still happen one of these...sometimes :(
ReplyDeleteUzumaki andSuicide Club. They make no sense, but are still disconcerting.
ReplyDeleteAs someone who voted for two movies in this bunch, I’m surprised that a: The Loved Ones got 3 votes (I expected it to be a 1/2-vote movie - but happy as I love Lola so much - 🎼Am I not pretty enough?), and b: Suicide Club ranked so low - more people need to see it
ReplyDeleteAlso, thank you to those who included The Lure and New Nightmare - both were barely scraped off my list
ReplyDeleteI expected "The Children" to be a meh Aughts horror, but it turned out to be great.
ReplyDeleteWe Are Still Here. At some point soon, every movie I watch will include Larry Fessenden.
Oodles of love for Suicide Club, The Loved Ones, The Old Dark House, The Stepford Wives & The Witches, all nearly made my list. Lists are very very hard.
ReplyDeleteI did not have great hopes for We Are Still Here when a friend sat me down to watch it, but it felt very surprising and fresh.
