10 To Midnight (1983, dir by J. Lee Thompson, DP: Adam Greenberg)
Charles Bronson was born 101 years ago today. In honor of the man’s legacy, here he is at the end of 1983’s 10 To Midnight, letting Warren Stacy know that “we won’t” be hearing from him.
For my final scene that I love of this year’s horrorthon, I’m going with the trippy conclusion of 2013’s A Field In England. A Field in England is one of the best films of the past ten years and I will never stop encouraging people to see it and discover its mysteries for themselves.
This scene may seem strange when viewed without context. It’s even stranger when viewed with context.
The world may be ending but Bill Murray and Adam Driver are not going to go out without a somewhat laid back fight.
From 2019’s The Dead Don’t Die:
From 2018’s A Quiet Place, Lee makes the ultimate sacrifice to protect his family.
Excuse me, I have something in my my eye….
Twin Peaks: The Return was full of creepy characters but the Woodsmen may have been the creepiest.
“Gotta light?”
Today’s scene is from Nicolas Winding Refn’s 2016 masterpiece, The Neon Demon. Elle Fanning is transformed into …. well, watch the movie to find out.
From 2013, an enigmatic opening for an enigmatic film:
Today’s scene that I love comes from one of the best horror films of the past ten years, 2012’s Cabin In The Woods. The party starts just a little bit early….
Today’s scene is from David Lynch’s Inland Empire.
I’m not even going to try to explain what’s going on here.
In a film full of disturbing and frightening moments, this is the one that always gets to me. I think it’s a combination of how apologetic the clueless Jim is and also just the way those heads pop up when he says, “Hello?”
