Preparatory Pushing of Festivids Fandoms!

This is all [personal profile] trelkez's fault idea fault. In the month leading up to Festivids fandom nominations, we should list some of the fandoms/sources we're thinking about requesting, so we can all watch them ahead of time and go, "Hell yeah I could make a vid out of that" or "OMG THIS IS THE BEST, someone should make me a vid!" and then offer/request said fandoms.

Think of it as a festival of new fandoms. I will start off. You can leave your own potential requests in the comments here or make a post in your own journal. If you do post in your own journal, leave a link here. I will probably whip up some sort of masterlist if we have enough participants!

Fandoms/sources I am considering requesting:

After Hours (1985, film) -- Martin Scorsese (yup) directs a madcap everything-that-can-go-wrong-does comedy. It's awesome.
The Black Cat (1934, film) -- Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi in a battle of wits fueled by vengeance.
Black Sunday (1960, film) -- Barbara Steele in a gorgeous Mario Bava movie.
Eyes without a Face (1960, film) -- French horror film that is both clinical and balletic at once.
The Howling (1981, film) -- Werewolves. Fuck yeah.
Kolchak: The Night Stalker (1974, TV) -- X-Files before there were X-Files.
Lisa and the Devil (1973, film) -- Another Bava film. Trippy as all hell (and just as problematic, admittedly). Gorgeous and macabre.
Modern Times (1936, film) -- Charlie Chaplin FTW.

Leave your own lists in the comments or in a post in your own journal (and leave me a link in the comments so I can track it)!
