I’m in the middle of a Burton watch through and forgot how important his movies were to me as a kid. His early run (plus the visual language of Nightmare Before Christmas) taught me auteur theory. Ed Wood is a masterpiece. Big Fish was one of the first grown up movies I saw in a theatre (a packed theatre, opening weekend). Edward Scissorhands was a manual to teenage romance. I love it all so much.

he made “halloween“ so he sorta owns the holiday. like duh the dude is the best - it’s not common to have directors that also score their films and that’s part of why he’s so epic. controlling both sound & vision and really sucking you into these weird movies - his genre is so complex too, not straight horror, not quite comedy i love all his films for different reasons but these are maybe my top 3: in the mouth of madness they live the fog

They are the shit! I’ve been watching old Alfred Hitchcock movies such as the birds, vertigo and rope. I love them all. Underrated pieces of art. They led me to other films like The Seventh Seal or Metropolis. Rear window absolutely worth it. All are hidden or not so hidden gems worth watching.

One of my favorite weekend activities! Here’s this weeks haul. It reminds me of going to the video store as a kid and gives me shopping vibes and I have a whole weekend of entertainment and did spend a cent.
