Straight Outta Compton 
(1st time)
an interesting story, sure, but a bit bland and by the numbers
Shakes the Clown 
(1st time)
this was... interesting
The Martian (1st time)
an interesting story at times but a bit bland and by the numbers
It's such a fine line between stupid and clever.

The Haunting (1963)
Probably my favorite haunted house movie
The Uninvited (1944)
a close 2nd.....
The Haunting of Hill House (Netflix series)
I think a very creative adaptation with several good scares.
Merry Christmas to all.....

Frankenstein (1931)
My first and favorite....
Bride of Frankenstein (1935)
IMHO, probably the first sequel equal to/better than the original
Son of Frankenstein (1939)
Rathbone, Karloff & Lugosi introducing us to Ygor....what more could I ask for
Merry Christmas to all.....
