I got this scratch poster as a Secret Santa gift, so for a new years resolution I& #39;m going to watch these 100 Cult films in 2020.
I& #39;ve seen quite a few of them before (48ish I think), but for completion sake I& #39;m going to rewatch what I& #39;ve already seen.

Naturally I created a spread sheet to track my progress, and searched for all of them on Netflix.
14 are on Netflix and 3 I own on DVD, and then I& #39;ll have to start looking elsewhere!
I& #39;m prepared to host movie nights to make this happen!

This film is dark, and the weirdest thing about watching it during 2020 is all the touching. Social distancing has changed me...
Big thanks to @AidanPope9 and @llaura_hughes for lending me so many films. But now I need more!
