I ran across this list on Kotte.org, who apparently cribbed it from Jim Emerson. I’ve marked the ones I’ve seen. Even though I’ve watched a lot of movies lately, I still have a lot of catching up to do.
I am tickled that I’ve actually seen Un Chien Andalou, a somewhat obscure 1929 French film by Luis Bunuel and Salvador Dali that features an eyeball getting slit open by a razor! If you have ever heard the Pixies song Debaser, it is about this movie. Check it out.
