THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS (1991)

Describing the plot of this movie, where one serial killer helps a trainee FBI agent catch another, does not do justice to how spectacularly well made and acted it is.

EVE’S BAYOU (1997)

This is a drama with an all-Black cast, set deep in Louisiana. I wanted to like it more than I actually did.

CANDYMAN (1992)

More a dream-like, twisted love story than a slasher movie, also there are lots of bees.
