- My favorite one: The Shining – Perhaps one of the best horror films of all time. It is different. No dark rooms full of cobwebs, but a brightly illuminated hotel and three people. There are, as in many other of Kubrick's films, so many subliminal innuendos of a complex hidden sub-story I could write a long text about it, but I'm sure to see still something new and fresh. The full-length english original is… ehm… long, but highly recommended. The shorter version for the german cinemas destroys a lot, and while the german dubbing is very good for the "surface story" in general, it destuctively makes fine subtleties in the dialog invisible. And there are a lot. And Jack Nicholson's acting is really creepy. Hint: Watch out for mirrors as an important element!
- My current one isn't that current anymore, but nearly a decade old: Interstellar – I never heard any bad about it and I wanted to watch it for more than five years, but it is a long film.
- The trashiest film I'd ever seen is Plan 9 from Outer Space – A film, so incredible bad, you will hardly find something worse. Exactly the right thing for dark, cold days and the olympic games of consumerism.
