I made a big post about that one and Longlegs being my two favorites of the year. I lean toward Late Night though.

To be honest, I couldn't remember what big horror movies you liked, so I just went with one. Point still stands. :P

Finished The Eye Creatures (1967) about twenty minutes ago. Would not recommend. :P

It's probably been more than ten years since I've seen Alien and Aliens. And I never watched the sequels after that. So it'll feel fresh. I liked Alien well enough but felt it was overhyped every time I watched it. I think it's been long enough that I'll have a fresh take.

Finishing off my night with The Return of the Vampire (1943). Been meaning to watch this for ages, so happy I'm finally getting to it.
