86. Shutter Island - I like Shutter Island well enough, though it sure looks like it divides opinions here. A deep dive into someone's messed up mind, with a twist at the end that most people absolutely saw coming from a mile away. It seemed like the 2000s might have been Leonardo DiCaprio's big decade, but he hit the 2010s even harder, starting with this Martin Scorsese neo noir adaptation of Dennis Lehane's novel. It's a story told in such a cinematic way that I really do wonder what the novel is like, and how it tells it's story. I love the spooky atmosphere - it builds up and as such the film behaves as if it's going to be a supernatural horror film. There certainly are ghosts - but they're of the psychological kind. Still, I'd like to see Scorsese tackle a horror movie - just like Kubrick did. Loved the visuals and score in this film, and I think it's unnerving enough to still be in my good books after all these years. It's been a few since I last watched it, but I've seen it several times.
85. The Hot Spot - I've never heard of this one, and I'm surprised I haven't. Straight into my watchlist - looking forward to it.
Seen : 10/16
Heard of : 13/16
Still nothing from my list
