For me, I differentiate between best and favorite, although in a few cases, the line can blur. This is a 'favorite' list as your thread implies, in what I would call easy for me to watch, go to movies, where my mood may not exactly matter even though they are from different genres. WHATEVER HAPPENED TO BABY JANE - 62' ROSEMARY'S BABY - 68' THE BOYS IN THE BAND - 70' JAWS - 75' 3 WOMEN - 77' DAWN OF THE DEAD - 78' GREASE - 78' UP IN SMOKE - 78' MOTEL HELL - 80' ORDINARY PEOPLE - 80' THE FUNHOUSE - 81' HALLOWEEN II - 81' ANNIE - 82' BASKET CASE - 82' TOOTSIE - 82' VISITING HOURS - 82' PSYCHO II - 83' CONAN THE DESTROYER - 84' FERRIS BUELLER'S DAY OFF - 86' HEARTBURN - 86' ELVIRA: MISTRESS OF THE DARK - 88' HEAVENLY CREATURES - 94' SERIAL MOM - 94' TO WONG FOO, THANKS FOR EVERYTHING, JULIE NEWMAR - 95' DETROIT ROCK CITY - 99'
