My Cinematic Alphabet

My Cinematic Alphabet.

This list is inspired by Rupert's list at Rupertpupkinspeaks.blogspot.com and by citizenrobot.com.

These are some of my favorite films from each letter of the alphabet. They aren't necessarily the best film to start with that letter of the alphabet, but they are all good or enjoyable movies that in a lot of cases more people should see. Feel free to post your own lists in the comments or on your blogs.




A is for ANIMAL FACTORY


B is for BAD BOYS


C is for CITY OF GOD


D is for DELICATESSEN


E is for EACH DAWN I DIE


F is for FIRES ON THE PLAIN


G is for GREY ZONE


H is for HAPPINESS


I is for THE ISLE


J is for JAWS


K is for THE KILLER SHREWS


L is for LIFEBOAT


M is for MARTYRS


N is for NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD


O is for ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO'S NEST


P is for PUSHER


Q is for Q, THE WINGED SERPENT


R is for RAZORBACK


S is for SAVE THE GREEN PLANET


T is for TODAY AND THE OTHER DAYS


U is for UNDERTOW


V is for VENOM

    I think I may try to do this, even though I don't normally mess around too much with lists, if only to see if I can come up with something interesting for some of the harder letters...

    you might want to check out "Serbian Film" if you haven't yet. A friend told me about it, and I know he has a stomach for gory movies (me not so much) so he told me not to watch the movie. He just told that if I was really curious, I should just read the reviews but never, never watch the film. He told me his brain, heart and soul hurt after he watched it. As for me, I've read the wiki on the film... and yes, I'm not watching it. Just thought you might want to add it to your movie list.

    Haha! I have seen Serbian Film a few times, actually. I thought of using it for this list and didn't. I will say that not enough is said about the pitch black humor of the film though. Yes, it's transgressive, offensive, and goes where way too far for most people. I don't recommend it to people unless they seem like they'd really be able to handle it. It's a far cry from being for everyone. Thanks for the suggestion though. =)

    Nice picks. I did mine thinking desert island movies, so the idea of bringing Lifeboat is positively horrifying!

    solid list dude. Love Save the Green Planet, that almost made it on to my list.
    I wonder how many of us ended with Zombi 2? and how many different versions of the title are used?
