May 2020 Film Wrap Up

So this month I really knocked it out of the park with how many films I watched I was really proud and it was a nice mixture of old, new, comedy and drama. Its really hard to choose a favourite out of all of them but I think for me the two that stood out was Into The Night which was a fantastic 80s thriller with Jeff Goldblum and Michelle Pfeiffer which is just this crazy situation with the idea of how two people can just collide. The other is The Funhouse which is a great 80s horror that reminded me a lot of the original Halloween in style and was a creepy watch. Let me know in the comments below what films you have watched this month and what was your favourite you have watched.
