Which of these movies should I watch first?

06-14-2004, 01:42 AM

Took out like 10 movies from the library, all supposed to be really good. Which order would you watch them in, judging from the description and stuff:

1. Jacob's Ladder: A traumatized Vietnam war veteran finds out that his post-war life isn't what he believes it to be when he's attacked by horned creatures in the subway and his dead son comes to visit him.

2. The Exterminating Angel: After a lavish dinner party, the guests find themselves mysteriously unable to leave the room...

3. Peeping Tom: A young man murders women, using a movie camera to film their dying expressions of terror.

4. Thesis: While doing a thesis about violence, �ngela finds a snuff video where a girl is tortured until death.

5. Seven Samurai: A poor village under attack by bandits recruits seven unemployed samurai to help them defend themselves. #6 of all time on IMDb

6. M: When the police in a German city are unable to catch a child-murderer, other criminals join in the manhunt. #50 of all time on IMDb

7. The Conversation: A paranoid and personally-secretive surveillance expert has a crisis of conscience when he suspects that a couple he is spying on will be murdered. #169 of all time on IMDb

8. The Seventh Seal: A man seeks answers about life, death, and the existance of God as he plays chess against the Grim Reaper during the Black Plague. #97 of all time on IMDb

9. Together: I dunno, the IMDb plot outline is in swedish or something, but it's from the guy who made Fucking Amal and Lilja 4-ever so it has to rule.

10. Dancer in the Dark: An east European girl goes to America with her young son, expecting it to be like a Hollywood film. Supposed to be real depressing shit.
