Not all that scary top 10
 
Top 10 films of all time!

This one is a little trickier, too many films, only ten slots!

1. Evil Dead 2
2. Monty Python’s Search for the Holy Grail/Life of Brian
3. The extended Lord of the Rings trillogy
4. Matrix Trillogy
5. The Alien films
6. The Terminator trillogy
7. 2010/2001 (in that order)
8. Anything by Tim Burton (cop out, I know)
9. Galaxy Quest
10. Hitch-hikers Guide to the Galaxy

Obviously this will change again by….well, now actually, but I’m not re-writing it!

There are more of my ‘Top 10's lists such as books, music, inspiration etc, on the ‘about me’ page of my site
