From EW.com: 20 Top Horror Films of the Past 20 Years

Has gory pictures.

And, actually, the larger-than-life movie-people thing has bugged me for a long time...remember, I'm Talky Movie Chick. So I'm not very bothered by the dishwasher thing.

Wow, I didn't know there was so much family angst about dishwashers! Maybe because I didn't grow up with one? It was about 12 minutes long, and ends with the dad finding a plate that belonged to the little brother. I also watched it at 2AM in a fit of insomnia, so I could just have been very impatient.

I really liked the dishwasher scene, too. I generally liked the movie, although the emotional blowout with her mother seemed a little too contrived. The mostly uncontrived remainder of the movie made up for that, though. It seemed rather Altman-esque, although I've never seen Altman's A Wedding, which I suspect was a major influence. Another thing I really liked: everybody's tense, oh-shit-here-comes-the-trainwreck look when what's-her-name, Anne Hathaway's character, stood to toast her sister/steal the limelight.

That scene was fantastic. I really loved a lot of the movie, which is why I just wanted to edit out the really overly long parts to make it tighter. Much of the film felt like a documentary it was so real.

I believe she was "Kym,", and whose birthday did I forget to find room for that?(and doesn't that kreatif "Y" say a lot about her, too) Basically, what Corwood said. (I mean, I'd have put in a mom-blowout too, I think, but since when do people with Big Issues actually fight about that.specific. thing. My dad and I had one about a keychain once, that if you look closer, could have stood in for our whole relationship, but neither of us noticed till later. Or, actually, I didn't; I still have no idea what he thinks.)

Big blow out scenes are so difficult to get exactly right, aren't they? I just watched I've Loved You So Long a couple of weeks ago, and there was one at the end of that movie. I think it worked, but when I know it's coming in a film, I feel anxious. They're so hard to pull off while remaining true to the story and not seeming melodramatic.

One of my alltime favorite blow-up scenes is also one of the most realistic I've ever seen: the scene with Albert Finney and Diane Keaton in the kitchen (hey, another dishwashing scene!) in Shoot the Moon. It was note perfect and utterly hard to watch because it was so real.

I haven't seen all of them, but wow do I not agree with their choices of Event Horizon, Scream, or 28 Weeks Later.

Event Horizon pretty much Invalidated the list for me. I like Scream, but top 20? I don't think so. And I don't at all get 28 Weeks Later over 28 Days Later.

The list seemed utterly random, like someone threw a bunch of titles in a hat and pulled out 20 of them.

I enjoyed the comments, which are increasingly bewildered by the list. Because starting with Darkman I, too, was going, "But... that's not a horror movie."
