When I read "older movies" I soooo wasn't thinking of the 90's! Never seen Trainspotting. but I remember it got some attention when it was released

One of the best science fiction movies that I ever saw was called "Forbidden Planet". It was way ahead of its time. It was from 1956. But then again it was from the eyes of a young child at the time.
Maybe Hollywood should consider doing a remake on this film!

As far as 90s go though: I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve rewatched Scream.
Can I also give a shout out for the original Wicker Man? Only horror movie that’s actually horrifying.
Me too, i was expecting 50s or 40s when i saw this thread, classic films.
I've been wanting to watch Wicker Man for a while too, guess i will now.
The version with Christopher Lee and Edward Woodward? Proper scary! Just humans, doing what they think is right.
It has Christopher Lee in it? I really have to watch now!
Yeah: there was a remake done (10ish?) years ago. Nicholas Cage in Edward Woodward’s role, changed the setting to US and altered various set-up points to comment on modern political whatsits from what I heard. I’ve refused to watch it, because I like the original too much to risk having it spoiled.

Yeah i hate New versions of old movies too, also involving politics in unrelated things really annoys me. And if it has Nicholas Cage count me out automatically hahah.
