Cannonball! - I thought this would be a good match to binge watch with Gumball Rally and Cannonball Run. It isn't. If Death Race 2000 (the original) is one of your favorites, watch it and then this as a double feature. They are made by the same people and have a lot of actors and plot in common. Otherwise skip it.

I liked Outland, it's no Blade Runner, but it's not bad. It's a lot better than Silent Running, but what isn't. Now you've made me want to watch Saturn 3 again.

Gritty, low budget mafioso movie.

Did you ever hear this ghost story: Bedtime for Sam? (you can read it here, it's just a page long)https://www.wattpad.com/169961434-te...edtime-for-sam
I read Bedtime for Sam. Kind of a twilight zone feel to it.

It's really the only spoken ghost story I ever thought was scary. I personally wouldn't tell this to children. What do you think?

Lol, I actually have a son named Sam ( now 33 ) and hell no, I would have never read a story like that to a little child at bedtime. I don't know why I said it reminded me of Twilight Zone. It doesn't really but reminds me of that time period.

Nerds of a Feather (1989) It's a terrible movie in almost every way, but I can't find it in my heart to hate it. It at least gave a lot of little people a paycheck and a role as a person, rather than a Star Trek alien or stuck inside R2D2.

THE SHINING (1980). Although there is a lot of repeating in the film and some incredibly slow scenes, the photography, sets, music and many solid performances (Scatman Crothers was the perfect choice for Dick Halloran in my opinion) make this a classic. Grows with repeated viewings and commentary quite interesting.
Kubrick was undeniably talented, but comes off as extremely anal and exasperating to work with. Still enjoy many of his films-EYES WIDE SHUT notwithstanding.
If You get a chance, two of his early works THE KILLING (1956-Tarantino used much of this for RESERVOIR DOGS) and PATHS OF GLORY (1957-one of the best War films ever made) are well worth seeing. ****
