T
the thing
director: john carpenter
One of the scariest, creepiest, most disgusting, paranoia-inducing movies ever made - and there ain't a chick in the whole picture. The transfer looks beautiful (check out the colors bouncing offa them flares!), Morricone's synth-minimalism still holds up, Wilford Brimley is insane, and the 'making of' just goes to show that talent to terrify on the screen may have stayed in the 80s, but whatever - a classic for your library.

this is spinal tap
director: rob reiner
I love the movie, and the DVD version has tons of features like the hilarious film trailers and an introduction by Marty DiBergi. But, what makes this a standout is the commentary track with the band that is almost as funny as the movie itself – definitely check out that feature.
