You laugh, but this is how the exododus went extinct
A movie you’ve seen more than seven times with a gif
It’s either name in title, name/character on poster, or movie with someone named Harry.

Kind of hoping for the third for a personal challenge. :)
One more horror film for the challenge with Masque of the Red Death, rich with masks in the third act masquerade. Roger Corman going full medieval horror to great effect, and a reminder that Vincent Price was one of the best to ever do this kind of thing.

They're calling him the most French man in history
A French cyclist survived for three days after a horrendous 130-foot fall into a ravine, kept alive by the bottles of red wine he had in his shopping bag, police said.

Unless I absolutely must for professional reasons, I will not be watching your nuclear war movie. I will not be watching your incredibly bleak and depressing murder show. I will not be watching your artistic despair. It’s nothing personal, I just don’t order water when I’m already bailing my boat.
