Good shout with Argo. However i'd seriously question it's lowly placing in your list.

It's a situation where I want to move it up to a higher place, but I don't want to move anything down! I'll probably save the document and tinker with scores, moving things around through the week and post the list, but with a different order, next Monday.

Good call! I can't believe I didn't think of that one – it's definitely going on my list as I rearrange and reorder.

I think they show it on the Horror Channel, pretty sure that’s where I last watched it

As for Blair Witch, I can’t believe I missed that one too
