The first VHS movies from my early childhood that influenced me are Death Race 2000, Friday the 13th, The Omen 2, Saturday the 14th... followed later by First Blood, and Halloween 3: Season of the Witch.
I know you read Doctor Sleep reasonably recently, the movie is different but it does something that I thoroughly enjoyed. Luring Rose the Hat to a place that is as dangerous to her as it is to Danny. Seeing the villain get uncomfortable with a dangerous environment felt new to me. I was glued to that, I didn’t think it was going to go well for anyone!
Quite similar with Star Wars and Ghostbusters but also Indiana Jones was a big one alongside ET and Jurassic Park. Although I was way too young to be seeing them, Aliens and T2 were big favourites.
Where to begin! Four films from childhood….Star Wars, Jurassic Park, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade and Hone Alone… action, comedy, the power of belief….

We have the same exact movie DNA, but add in THE THING and ALIEN and ALIENS and Transformers: The Movie for mine.
