I have a really REALLY crappy memory, and I m sure there are tons of movies I ve seen (perhaps even yesterday) and just simply don't remember at all. This list would likely change drastically every hour that I decided to fill it-- and fortunately with my crappy memory I COULD do this exercise every 2 weeks or so without any memory of what I had chosen inthe past, and come up with completely new lists...
Night of the Living Dead ~~ that movie and "Salem's Lot" were the only two that ever really scared me, but I saw Salem's Lot when I was like 8 years old but Night of the Living Dead still scares the living poop out of me, and gives me about a full week's worth of nightmares if I see it again. I first saw it when I was like 12 years old, and one week later my family went to a cousin's house for a long weekend... who lived next to a cemetary in a creepy "old town" from pre civil war Maryland. I sat in my room (overlooking said cemetary, of course) looking out at the cemetary for two nights without sleeping at all. Sucks to be 12.
SuperBad ~~ in the long run this one might or might not make it... but I just saw it recently and it was the first movie in a looooooong time that had me really REALLY laughing. I needed it. I loved it.
Memento ~~ loved it
Fellowship of the Ring ~~ This one really spoke to my primordial dna. the LOTR books are really the only ones that I like to re-read ... and I've probaby read them over 10 times in my life (most back in the "foggy times" of teen/pre-teen, but some recently as well) and the movie TOLTALLY "got it" for me. I wanted to marry Mr. Jackson after I saw the movie. And I saw it with my grown brother and sister (we only ALL get together at the same time a few times a decade) and all three of us just sat in our seat long after the theatre lights came up with fat stupid and happy looks on our dreamy faces.
most porn movies ~~ For my last entry I will simply lump porn as a genre together, because really does the specific title matter? However, these really speak to my primordial DNA as well, and you can't beat the production value
