Going with Coma from 1978. Haven't really heard much about this, but it has Michael Douglas, who's been in very few horror films, so I'm interested.

Huh, closest I can think of has been Fatal Attraction and The Ghost & The Darkness. Maybe the latter still counts but I don't think anyone counts FA.

But yeah, I can't think of anything else he's done that comes close to horror off the top of my head.

He wasn't the star, but there was an early 1970's TV horror film When Michael Calls he was in (I've not seen it, but it's been on my radar). Apparently he also pops up in both Flatliners and it's remake - I'm not sure if those count as horror, nor do I know how big his role was in either, but I just noticed that on IMDb.

So far Coma in quite the mysterious film. Sort of excited to see where this is going.

Bummer when that happens.

I'm not sure how bullet-headed I'll be the rest of the month. I know I'm trying to conquer 62 werewolf movies, that'll pretty much be my primary goal for now. I'm sure I'll get other regulars squeezed in, like Halloween series, Night of the Demons, etc.

I need to get back to watching movies. Between job interviews, being in the studio, band practice, helping Amber with her cleaning business.....I've just been exhausted.

Beyond The Reach could be considered Horror.

lol Invisible Man wasn't mind blowing but better than I expected. Worth watching at least once. Doctor Sleep is pretty damn good.
