Dark City (1998) By Alex Proyas.

On November 15, 1966, two young couples from Point Pleasant, West Virginia—Roger and Linda Scarberry, and Steve and Mary Mallette—told police they were chased by a large white creature whose eyes "glowed red". They described it as a flying man with 10-foot wings and said it followed their car while they were driving in an area of town known as the "the TNT area", the site of a former World War II munitions plant. This creature came to be known as "Mothman" and has since been blamed for everything from causing TV static to killing pets to even a bridge collapse. Folklorist Jan Harold Brunvand claims the creature was something real and frightening, but explainable, that got woven into local legends. Others have claimed the creature was a UFO, some a large owl and others say it's a large American Crane.

What do you think the Mothman is?

Anomalisa by Charlie Kaufman and Duke Johnson.

Based on Kaufman's 2005 audio play of the same name.

An epic, moving, meticulous, and miraculous feat of filmmaking.

One of my favorite types of animated films are of the independent variety. Films like Hoodwinked!, Persepolis, Mary and Max, and the works of Ralph Bakshi are among my personal recommendations.

Matinee by Joe Dante.

One of the great ones.

The most overlooked movie about movies.

Joe Dante's love letter to horror gimmicks.

Some hard questions (and my opinion on them)…

1) Pineapple on pizza is good? 😒 No, who in the right mind would put pineapple on their pizza? 2) Peanut M&M's are the superior M&M's? I haven't partaken in the M&M's recently. 3) Is Metal Gear Solid 2 the best game of all time? One of them, for sure! 4) Is Death Stranding the greatest game of all time? One of them! Absolutely! Great designs and great actors in it! 5) Could a hot dog count as a sandwich? I don't think so, because it's like a vertical sandwich. 6) Is cereal a soup? The way some people make it? Yes! Me, I don't use milk in my cereal. 7) Smoking is never cool? It only LOOKS cool, but it's not cool for the biology.

Phantom of the Paradise by Brian De Palma.

A perfect reimagining of Leroux's 1910 novel.

This is a deranged, romantic, and quirky comedy horror with a perfect soundtrack.

The Man Who Laughs (1928) by Paul Leni.

One of the most iconic and influential silent films of all time (along with Metropolis, Nosferatu, and The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari).

A magnificent film and one of my favorites.

Highly recommend checking it out.

And, yes, Conrad Veidt's interpretation (and Jack Pierce's make-up) inspired The Joker.

Really like the costumes on these guys (designed by the great Sid and Marty Krofft).

Most monsters in this day and age are impeccably tailored and well-coiffed.

Not to mention, they smile on TV.

The Werewolf of Paris by Guy Endore.

A vicious and abnormal horror novel.

Adapted very loosely into Hammer Horror Productions' The Curse of the Werewolf by Terence Fisher.

Merry Little Batman by Mike Roth.

Saw it and loved it!

The Ronald Searle-esque art style is amazing!!

An animated superhero film full of personality and genuine invention!!
