Day #30 of the 30 Day Film Challenge

The prompt is A Film with your favorite ending

What if you don't have a favorite ending? Or can thing of a film with one?
I'm seriously drawing a blank here guys. I suppose you could say Raider's had a great ending, but I already used that one. West Side Story had a good ending - always sends chills down my spine. The Haunting - Wise's original film had a great ending.

For me, a good ending is something that leaves things open-ended somewhat.
Too neatly wrapped up - I get annoyed. Films that I felt didn't land the ending were the ones that felt the need to do multiple endings. Teaser ending, then another ending after it. Avenger's EndGame kind of went screwy with its ending.

I'm going with an oldie...mainly because I already used Empire Strikes Back and Raiders.

Watch on YouTube

It's also the only one I remember.

This ends the movie challenge. Currently doing the television challenge, and starting Oct 1 - will start the 30 days of Halloween Challenge.

If you want to keep your anxiety down, I would avoid this one; it's pure nightmare fuel. Not because the monsters are terrifying (even though they are)--because of the people. Marcia Gay Harden's Mrs. Carmody is a religious fanatic on (what seems to be) the actual Judgment Day. (Roll that around for a minute...)

In mood and philosophical approach, this movie is the opposite of Darabont's previous Stephen King adaptation. It's The Shawshank Redemption's evil twin brother.

Yeah, I can't watch it this year. I had to turn down my niece who is hunting people to help her get progressives elected in swing districts. The whole idea of doing it - sends my blood pressure up. My workplace is driving me nuts as it is.

I want to watch the House of Bly on Netflix - the latest in the ghost story trilogy from the creator of last years - Haunting of Hill House. But, I don't think I can. My blood pressure is elevated enough as is.
