Best: The Crazies.
Easily the most memorable of what I saw this year. I loved how it started pretty intensely and never let up. Not as gory as I was expecting, but very effective with what there was. I would put A Serbian Film right up there as well, but it's not a film that I will want to watch over and over again. The Human Centipede was great as well for what it was.
Worst: Frozen.
I wanted to turn this off so many times, but I persevered mainly because being an avid snowboarder I kept thinking of what I might do in that situation. But the movie is just so incredibly bad. Bad acting and stupid plot twists (lift cables are razor-sharp wire? wolf packs roaming a ski hill?) killed what could have been a pretty good one-room movie.
