No, then I'd put Haruhi there.

Dennou Coil is very very good and very cerebral but also fun. It's one of those "Makes you think" shows.

La Haine (aka "Hate"). Very powerful and very true to what goes on in European suburbs. One of the best foreign films I have seen.

I saw 1408 on TV a few weeks ago and I must say I did like the story, though just having to start from scratch after the hour has passed was kind of a bummer, and I would have liked to have some background about why the room became evil or whatever, but a good movie non the less.

It was more of a "what" than a "why" film. Like Samuel L. Jackson said, "It's just an evil fucking room".

I liked that It was explanation enough for me... And I sort of feel like it makes the film cooler...

Sort of tired of the ghost/horror/haunted movies where the reason for the haunt is some sort of stretched out, long-drawn, melodramatic reason.

I like that in this film the room is just evil, and that's about it.

EDIT: Oh and I like the fact the the room had a sense of humor...

I sort of got that feeling at the end of Grudge 2 and Darkness. To know that an elusive and unstoppable evil has just been unleashed on the whole world.

I saw Knowing yesterday. I didn't hate it. It kept me interested.

I also saw Outlander. Which is basically Beowulf meets Alien, but not as good at all. I wish he got his gun back. I really do.

I liked Ron Perlman and Jon Hurt, though.

It was more of a "what" than a "why" film. Like Samuel L. Jackson said, "It's just an evil fucking room".
And that is was Stephen King is the greatest writer of all time.

Koontz is right up there with the author of The Hungry Caterpillar and Ann Coulter.
I just read a riveting pamphlet about enlarged prostates. It's titled "Bigger Isn't Always Better". It's quite possibly the best piece of literature ever produced, even moreso than the greatest piece of fiction of the same genre; The Catcher in the Rye.

I thought it was kinda boring.

But then again I watched it without sound over someone's shoulder in the school computer lab so hmm.
