Thrillers and road movies (if there's such a thing as a proper name for them) 😬.
I have a soft spot for social dramas too 🙂
Basically, anything Quentin Tarantino touches. Though, I can never quite figure out how he manages to cram so much into one movie. A bit of crime, a touch of dark humor... 😁.

Honestly, finding a decent horror comedy is becoming a bit of a rarity these days... 😢>

Where’s the poll?😕 😕
I’m down for pretty much any genre, as long as the movie actually holds up. Lately, I've been leaning hard into crime thrillers and horror ...!!!

Psychological stuff mixed with those creepy elements, you know, like those M. Night Shyamalan movies. Then you've got the ones with those wild, imaginative scripts where everything just flows from the characters and the chaos of the situation, kind of like a Guy Ritchie flick. And finally, there’s just that one specific vibe—that single level of David Lynch, Alfred, or Roman Polanski—where you get a pure psychological thriller. That's all there is to it!

There is plenty of drama and action here. I will certainly give them all a watch, provided I am not feeling too exhausted by then.

Maybe the newer one is actually more interesting—I think it has some number in the title, like 167 or 163 or 143... can't recall. The only downside is the premise is totally wild, but the directing and writing choices just don't land right. The ending was pretty dumb. It felt like they pushed too hard to keep certain elements grounded, like "maybe this could actually happen" in real life... plus that religious angle, which is just classic Mel Gibson. Honestly, maybe The Village is better. It’s scarier, at least, even if neither is truly scary (except for me 😁).
Oh, and the title is: Population 436!

Hmm... if the movie is actually good, I don't really care about the genre much.
Though, I have to admit, I do lean toward horror movies just a little more.
