For me, it’s either the Matrix or Pulp Fiction. I have seen both a lot of times but certainly not more often than say a dozen times.

Wow, that's an eclectic mix of rewatches! I'm with you on Alien.

Lol, haha, I never thought about that. I used to watch a shit-ton of movies as a teen. Got into horror movies, David Lynch and weird stuff early on so I kind of dove into the deep end very early and with no social life there was a lot of time to watch a lot of stuff.

I seem to be having a phase where I don't really watch movies that much (series more than ever), but when I do it's usually kind of "comfort food" so I'm mostly watching all-time favorites over and over again.

This list of yours needs Werner Herzog's Aguirre and Fitzcarraldo in there.

We have strangely similar taste, I've seen all these movies, and they're all amazing
