11. Donkey Punch (2008, UK) Oliver Blackburn - a must see [B-]

13. Inglorious Bastards (1978, Italy) Enzo G. Castellari - worth seeing
14. Silent Night, Deadly Night (1984, USA) Charles E. Sellier Jr. 3rd viewing [last viewing Dec. 07] - ** or Camp Rating
15. Truck Turner (1974. USA) Jonathan Kaplan - a must see
Very underrated blaxploitation film that came with Joe Dante’s seal of approval, and who just happens to have a character named after him in the film. Coincidence?

16. Savage Grace (2007, USA) Tom Kalin [2008 based on theatrical run] - worth seeing [C-]
See it if only for the extraordinary performance by Eddie Redmayne. Everything else, including Julianne Moore's overacted trainwreck character, is nothing we haven't seen before.

17. H.O.T.S. (1979, USA) Gerald Seth Sindell - has redeeming facet
A bad T&A movie, I hardly remember what it was about, but I think I enjoyed it at the time.

23. Caramel (2007, Lebanon) Nadine Labaki - worth seeing [C]
Undistinguished women’s picture that certainly aims for big things and according to Amy Taubin manages to get there, but for me Labaki’s intentions are never fully realized in her final product.

24. Christmas Evil aka You Better Watch Out! (1980, USA) Lewis Jackson - 2nd viewing [last viewing Nov. 06]; no change in rating **
27. The House Bunny (2008, USA) Fred Wolf - worth seeing [C]

30. Invasion of of the Bee Girls (1973, USA) Denis Sanders - a must see
31. Wanted (2008, USA) Timur Bekmambetov - a must see [B-]
