Mikey’s Movie Recommendations

Mark your calendars: '80s HORROR—our 30-film collection featuring films by Dario Argento, Kathryn Bigelow, John Carpenter, Larry Cohen, David Cronenberg, Tobe Hooper, Michael Mann, Ken Russell, Paul Schrader, and more—is coming to the Criterion Channel (criterionchannel.com) on October 1! 🔥 Curated by Clyde Folley, this ghastly tour through the decade of greed features ambitious art-pulp hybrids, old-fashioned creature features, a vampiric Nicolas Cage, and absolutely unclassifiable cult oddities, bringing together some of the eighties’ most stylish, haunting, and outrageous visions.

Speaking of TV shows: Movie references made in NBC's Community Disclaimer: The title is a joke. I know most entries are limited series, and I am also aware a lot of the entries aren't the actual TV shows in their entirety, just special or extended episodes. Think of those as being representative of the show, and not the shows themselves. Also, I recently added directly from larger lists that also compiled tv shows in them, but some movies sometimes found their way into those lists, which may be why you’ll see some actual movies on here. Do not hesitate to…

Or: Films that make emotional sense, but not necessarily logical sense Films that you follow on an intuitive level, even if not on a story level. Aiming for stuff that is elliptical and about the emotional journey of the story, not the story itself. Suggestions welcome. --- Contribute to my other lists here.
