The Wicker Man (1973)
In this article, we will be looking at 2019’s book “1001 Movies to See Before You Die” and going through each film in a random order that I have chosen. We will be looking at what constitutes this film to be on the list and whether I think this film deserves to be here at all. I want to make perfectly clear that I won’t be revealing details from this book such as analyses by film reporters who have written about the film in question, so if you want the book itself you’ll have to buy it. But I will be covering the book’s suggestions on which films should be your top priority. I wouldn’t doubt for a second that everyone reading this article has probably watched many of these movies anyway. But we are just here to have a bit of fun. We’re going to not just look at whether it should be on this list but we’re also going to look at why the film has such a legacy at all. Remember, this is the 2019 version of the book and so, films like “Joker” will not be featured in this book and any film that came out in 2020 (and if we get there, in 2021). So strap in and if you have your own suggestions then don’t hesitate to email me using the address in my bio. Let’s get on with it then.

Candyman is Just as Important as Black Panther
The Youth Deserve to See Candyman as Much as They Did Black Panther Candyman shows the thirst for White Americans to find a source of faults for the oppression of Black people, ignoring the alienation and objectification against African Americans. This statement is the gimmick of the slasher flick in question.

A Film Addict Reviews! Overlord
Now that we are quickly approaching Halloween, I figured that I should maybe celebrate it a little but watching a few Halloween favorites. I’m personal fan of Beetlejuice which is my go-to Halloween film. This year, I’m starting to branch out a little bit more and watch some more of the horror oriented ones and not so much comedic. One can never go wrong with watching the original Evil Dead or Army of Darkness but I have been wanting to watch Overlord since it first came out. I have finally seen it (obviously) and let me tell you what an adventure this was.

Hocus Pocus Was Not a Halloween Movie
Every October, I like to sit down and watch old Halloween movies. Yesterday's pick was Hocus Pocus (1993). In my adulthood, I found myself laughing at parts of the film I'd seen a million times. I always remembered that no matter how many times you watch something, you'll still see something new you didn't see/realize the first time. This statement is still valid for me.
