So, now the first half of 2017 already behind us, I have watched 224 films so far this year.
Of those 224, 164 have been first time watches. Below are my updated top 10 new to me films thus far (new entries are in
red).
1. The Neon Demon (2016)
2. The Wailing (2016)
3. Dark Passage (1947)
4. Mommy (2014)
5. Train to Busan (2016)
6. The Arrival (2016)
7. Red White & Blue (2010)
8. Nightmare (1964)
9. The Grissom Gang (1971)
10. Nights of Cabiria (1957)
Full list
here.
Quite a lot of changes since my last update, especially within the Top 10, which sees six new entries, from the fantastic South Korean shockers
The Wailing and
Train to Busan, Noir thriller
Dark Pasage (which was long overdue a watch from me), the refreshing and very well constructed
The Arrival, the tense well-acted thriller
The Grissom Gang and the melancholic but wholly absorbing character drama
Nights of Cabiria.
