2019 Scary Movie Challenge Day 23


88 comments:

  1. Victor Sjöström's THE PHANTOM CARRIAGE (1921, 100 min.) on Turner Classic Movies for the first time.

    'Victor Sjöström' in English means 'Orson Welles.'
    or
    No sound? No classic 'Heeeeere's David!' line.

  2. Edgar Wright's SHAUN OF THE DEAD (2004, 99 min.) on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray.

    So good it makes farting deep, poignant.
    or
    "Batman" soundtrack thrown? Definitely Prince's, not Elfman's.
