can't think of any directors who've made more than 2 films that I genuinely adore.

Spielberg for DUEL and JAWS
Coen Bros for FARGO and BIG LEBOWSKI
Scorcese for GOODFELLAS and CASINO
Lynch for WILD AT HEART and MULHOLLAND DRIVE

feel like all these guys have a superior directors' touch, but at the same time I could haplily live without all their other films tbh

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
