I've got far too many films, but those were the ones i've seen repeated times and keep going back to regularly. ![]()

Numerically films like Great Escape, Kelly's Heroes, Dirty Dozen I must have seen just about every year since the 70s one way or another ![]()

Good thread / topic. It's interesting for me, ask me to name my favourite films and I'd give you highly inconsistent answers from one time to the next, but I can easily tell you the ones I watch often. I do have a tendency to not watch a given film more than a couple of times tops, although I have recently been going through my DVD hoard to check out what I've forgotten about. Above and beyond that, here are the ones I always come back to, for whatever reason - Taxi Driver Repo Man Videodrome Black Christmas Basket Case Blue Velvet Fargo Heathers The Deer Hunter Something Wild Return of the Living Dead The Last Seduction |

![]() I've never upgraded it from my rubbish-looking DVD, because, when it comes to 'Heathers' and those other films on my list, I can live without things like definitive picture quality etc. I don't know why, because otherwise I'm generally quite picky about AV presentation etc. I know this is a bit of a weird thing to say, but I think that maybe the reason is that these kind of 'special' films are more about memory and nostalgia rather than new territory, and the feeling of warm sentimentality they evoke is more important than them looking great in HD. Perhaps there's a fear that a cold-light-of-day forensic looking high def refurb might spoil those blurry, TV era recollections. That said, now you've mentioned that BD I might have to look into it, as 'Heathers' is definitely due for a rewatch.

I get that Frankie, ![]() Some films seemed creepier in grainy shoddy prints (bootleg) for example Texas Chainsaw massacre. Even though i've said that i recently watched the original Star Wars films on blu and they were given a whole new impact due to clarity. I think if it's a low budget production then dvd is fine, but a big blockbuster or something with great cinematography really gains on blu. ![]()

'Rocky Horror' - the original, not the remake which I have still got to see once! I've lost count of how many times I have seen the 1975 one, but it is certainly in triple figures. I've seen it on television, on video, on DVD, on Blu-Ray, at the cinema for normal showings, at the cinema for midnight showings and as an 'occasion' with a live performing cast
