You are a person of taste. Nice list.
Army of Darkness out there with one of the best skeleton armies to this day. And you've got so many Terry Gilliam but no mention of Brazil?
I just watched the whole Evil Dead series of films. The new ones are surprisingly good.
Tv show is also entertaining.
Shit, I missed that. I'm going back in!
lucky! its soooo good
I could spend hours writing my favorite movies and Gilliam would be near the top.
They're possibly my favorite director, such wild stuff. Brazil is often one of the first movies I'll show new people as a way to check if they'll vibe with my sense of weird
I just recently saw it for the first time. I loved it and would take more suggestions if you've got any!
I'm a big fan too.
