Damn, I haven't watched 99% of these in the comments, I think I might be too picky about what to watch.

The thing
Shaun of the Dead is so good! I can't believe I missed it from my list. Pretty much anything by Edgar Wright is amazing, I even enjoyed Midnight In Soho, which was his weird Giallo horror tribute.
Yeah I need to get round to watching midnight in Soho lol
I'm more into just about anything animated, so my list is absolutely biased against most any live action film:
• Prince of Egypt ( Pixar's last good film before they started flying off a cliff, in my opinion )
• An American Tail ( Fivek Goes West as well, but the first one is definitely better )
• The Land Before Time ( specifically movies 1 & 5 since they're my favorites of the overdone franchise )
• Secret of NIMH
I can't think of any others off the top of my head that aren't your standard 1970s animated Robin Hood ( the dosney one ) or Zootopia, but I can't say I'd put them up there despite how much I adore those movies.
Bong Joon Ho’s Parasite is a masterful film in every aspect. See also:
