I meant to post as I worked through them but didn't get around to it, so...
On Christmas Eve I revisited director Lewis Jackson's 1980 movie Christmas Evil. I then followed it up by checking out director Damien Leone's movie Terrifier 3 which released back in September. Terrifier 3 is set during Christmas so I waited a few months to watch it for the holidays. While I didn't really buy into the conceptual turn they took with things in Terrifier 2 when I saw it and don't know how I'd like it if I were to revisit it now, Terrifier 3 follows up on those plot threads and I actually enjoyed the movie.
On Christmas I revisited director Satoshi Kon's 2003 classic Tokyo Godfathers and followed it with my yearly viewing of director Bob Clark's 1974 movie Black Christmas. Unfortunately I was a bit too busy in the leadup to Christmas for more wholesome stuff, but Tokyo Godfathers and the 1966 animated How The Grinch Stole Christmas! were the feel good viewings. I'll have to try to find some time for other more cheery things in the leadup in 2025, maybe while baking, I dunno.
On Thursday night I decided to revisit director John McTiernan's 1988 movie Die Hard.
On Friday night I revisited director Charles E. Seller, Jr.'s 1984 movie Silent Night, Deadly Night. I had originally planned to watch it sooner, but it was a library rental and the library was unfortunately closed prior.
And on New Year's Eve I revisited director Joe Dante's 1984 movie Gremlins.
I went to watch the new Lion King movie “Mufasa” in the cinemas on its launch night with my husband. As someone that didn’t love the 2019 remake, I surprisingly really enjoyed Mufasa.
I finally finished up the original Karate Kid trilogy by watching the third movie this weekend. The first one was definitely the best. They went a little downhill after that. I know there are more films with other lead characters, but I'm done now. I don't feel a need to watch anymore.
