TRON

Kevin Flynn, computer programmer and avid gamer, gets atomized and downloaded, while hacking into a computer looking for proof that he developed several popular video games. He is transformed into a digital world where he is forced to play video games run by the MCP. It has artificial intelligence and is bent on world domination by hacking into goverment computers, and illiminating any program or any one who gets in its way. Flynn meets up with Tron, Bit, and programs that resemble his in real life friends that help him along the way.

So far everything I've seen in this thread is either a great movie, a movie I haven't seen, or Deadpool.

The Shining


The perfect horror movie. Family holes up in a snowed in hotel that's haunted by its past inhabitants and they deal with that and writer's block until Johnny shows up. Insanely meticulous layers upon layers of depth, as is to be expected from Kubrick.

60.
The Babadook


The perfect horror movie atmosphere. After finding a children's book on her son's bookshelf, a widow and her unruly son are visited by a mysterious, dark being. One of the best movies that makes you question if it's a psychological or supernatural film, and my particular interpretation of it is pretty damn moving.

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.

It's more of a coming of age story told from the son's perspective than a story about the mother's descent into insanity. I think she was always crazy, largely because of the part where her sister says that she's like this every year. The paranormal elements are his childish naïveté, while the rest is him growing up and seeing his mother for what she really is (as opposed to someone being harassed by a supernatural force) after seeing it in himself first.

Interesting take. That definitely adds a bit more depth to the film.

We need some classic Italian giallo. I've got a few ideas but someone like Bob might be better qualified.

What am I missing about Babadook? I thought it was a pretty terrible horror movie, and nothing special at all.
