My 25 Favorite Movies
Listed in chronological order this is the list of my all-time favorite films.
Films that were considered for this list but excluded for some reason (yet still enjoyed and recommended immensely) include:
Fantômas (1964)
Desyat negrityat (1987)
Darkman (1990)
Also, frankly, A LOT of movies by some of my favorite directors as I usually view their work in complex and it is hard to choose a single movie out of it. Still, some of the featured movies are by some of my favorite directors, but they're usually shining up as quite unique in their filmographies.
Candidates for 26 and Above:
Videodrome (1983)
Into the Night (1985)
Bienvenue à bord! (1990)
Fight Club (1999)
The Caller (1987)
