Sometimes I watch a ton of flicks and sometimes I watch none (as is evidenced here- I did We Bury the Dead on Feb 4), but I can feel it picking up again. Finally saw Scary Movie 4 and 5 ahead of 6 that comes out in June. Not quite a #Last4Watched, but close. Last 3 watched.

David Cronenberg, master of body horror movies, was born today (March 15) in 1943 (during World War II!)
I saw his films 'Crash' and 'Naked Lunch' early, around the same time, in 1997 or 1998. Since then, I've seen many more of his- I just counted, I've seen 13 of his 23 films, and I've loved all of them. I'm a huge fan. My favorite was Shivers for a while. I'm not sure what it is now. Gotta see those final 10!
Happy birthday, David. We love …
