top 5 favorite movies?

[tedvanfrehley]

Just curious as to some of your favorite flicks? Here are my top five of all time:
SLING BLADE - Billy Bob Thornton will ALWAYS be Karl Childers to me
STAND BY ME - Similar to growing up with friends in small town Kentucky
O BROTHER WHERE ART THOU? - Classic! Great music but funny as hell
INDIANA JONES - Trilogy - got it for Christmas. Come on! What kid DIDN'T grow up in the 80's and want a bullwhip?
FAST TIMES AT RIDGEMONT HIGH - Sean Penn went downhill from this...

what are some of your favorites? I know this ain't metal but just something different...and most music fans are movie fans...

[TRrEiTxIxRiE DTrash]

I can't narrow it down to 5 because it depends on my mood! So here's a whole list of some of my favourites haha!

Taxi Driver, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (original), After Hours, Death Wish, Revenge Of The Nerds, Halloween, The Blues Brothers, Beverly Hills Cop, Coming To America, Detroit Rock City, Back To The Future 1 & 2, all Dario Argento's films (esp. Tenebrae, Profondo Rosso, Creepers & Suspiria), Bloodsucking Freaks, Trick Or Treat, Demons, Dressed To Kill, Psycho, Rear Window, Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers, Basket Case, some of the old Hammer Horror stuff, Fast Times At Ridgemont High, Porky's, Sixteen Candles, Shame, Chopper, Mr Reliable, Ed Wood, the Wayne's Worlds, the Bill & Teds, etc etc etc!!!

Hahaha I know that's a little bit more than 5 but I can't just choose 5. I love all of them but it depends on my mood which ones I like better really! However the first 3 or 4 are probably in my top 5 for sure.
