I just finished watching Jaws. I'd forgotten just how much fun it is, and what a perfect film it is for sitting in the dark with a bowl of popcorn. Robert Shaw might have been a hopeless drunk, but he made that movie, especially in the scene wherein he recounts the fate of the U.S.S. Indianapolis' doomed crew. Richard Dreyfuss' face by the end of that scene is priceless.
I'm picking more movies for my month-long celebration of Halloween. The big guns--Halloween, Friday the 13th, and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre(the original version)--are for the final few days, but I need to fill out the rest of the schedule. Bubba Ho-tep, Trilogy of Terror, maybe a handful of zombie flicks or Evil Dead. Definitely some Scooby-Doo. If I want to scare the shit out of myself, I could always pop in the American version of The Ring and live in terror of my television for several weeks.
