ORIGINAL LIST HERE
Sticking to my rule of first-time watches only. Exceptions are made for any Extra Credit watches. This time there's only one but it's a film I'll gladly watch again.
Not surprised that the 80s takes precedent in my decades chosen for the challenge, but also interesting that I have exactly 2 films from each of the '20s decades about a century apart.
QUICK EASY RULES:
There must be 31 films
6 countries [USA, Canada, Japan, Germany, Italy, UK]
8 decades [1920s, 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, 2010s, 2020s]
2 insect centered films [NAKED LUNCH, SQUIRM]
1 horror film set in space or the future (relative to when it was released) [SCREAMERS]
2 animated films [PERFECT BLUE, ALICE]…
