Box office success is only one metric for judging a movie's longevity and quality, but it does have a major impact on opinion and conversation surrounding a film. When it comes to cult classics of the 2010s, like Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, it's hard to imagine that there was a time when people didn't recognize what a visionary work this was. However, it's very common for movies to underperform in theaters only to become beloved and highly sought-after works in the years after they've been released. 6x5261

Jim Jarmusch's best movies prove he has always been a risk-taker of a director, even if those risks are necessarily pronounced or brash compared to other filmmakers. Over more than 30 years in the business, Jarmusch has dominated the indie scene as a director concerned with the quotidian, the existential, the unusual, the confrontational, the bland, and everything in between. A typical Jarmusch plot presents as a logical, mild-mannered affair no matter how extraordinary the circumstances, choosing to focus on how the characters populating the film operate within the established rules of the world.

Tilda Swinton has appeared in a wide variety of horror movies, differing substantially in style and quality, and this calls for a ranking of these titles in order from worst to best. The Oscar-winning actor, best known for her role as the Ancient One in the MCU's Doctor Strange, has never been afraid of a challenge. Swinton's filmography is littered with ambitious, surreal, and often inscrutable projects, many of which leave the mainstream behind in favor of trippier territory, and that includes her work in the horror genre.

Ever since making his film debut in 1980 with the release of Permanent Vacation, Jim Jarmusch has continued to be one of the most critically-lauded independent film auteurs of his generation. In addition to writing and directing 14 feature films to date, Jarmusch has made several music videos and a handful of documentaries over his eclectic 40-year-career. He's also acted, produced, edited, composed music, and worked as a cinematographer on his own projects and those of others.

It's almost Halloween again, which means its time to see the appearance of those classic horror costumes like Frankenstein, the Wolfman, and of course, Dracula. Vampires have a long history in horror and are always a perfect option for Halloween, both with costumes and horror films, depending on your choice to celebrate.

The image of the vampire took a bit of a beating a few years ago when Twilightmade them teen-friendly. Sure, there was sexual intrigue (of the Mormon-influenced, unrequited variety) and violence (but nothing too graphic), but it was tame even by the standards put down by Buff the Vampire Slayer.
