In no particular order:
True Grit (2010)
King Kong (2005)
3:10 To Yuma (2007)
The Magnificent Seven (1960)
Cape Fear (1991)
Dawn of the Dead (2004)

The Fly (1986)
Insomnia (2002)
Scarface (1983)
The Ten Commandments (1956)
The Thing (1982)
The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (2005) – I saw this performed as a play at a local college a few years ago. Wonderful!
The Champ (1979)
Dark Water (2005) – This version gets a bum rap but I enjoyed it.
Halloween (2007) – Its sequel was disgusting, appalling and an insult to the franchise, but this was actually quite good.
Heat (1995)
The Lake House (2006) – I don’t care that it’s Keanu Reeves and the film has a sub-7 rating at the IMDB, I liked it!
Let Me In (2010)
Pure Luck (1991) – This movie only has a 5.0 rating at the IMDB, but I tell you, I don’t think I ever laughed so hard at a movie! Martin Short was a comedic genius! That it only has a 5.0 is a travesty.
Quarantine (2008)
The Toy (1982)
Vanilla Sky (2001)
The Vanishing (1993)
Nosferatu the Vampyre (1979)
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (1988)
