**Ghost in the Shell**

Up first is Ghost in the Shell, and we're not talking about the 2017 live-action film starring Scarlett Johansson. We're talking about the original groundbreaking animated feature film that went on to inspire the likes of James Cameron and the Wachowskis who later went on to create films like Avatar and The Matrix franchise. Directed by Mamoru Oshii and based on Masamune Shirow's iconic manga of the same name, Ghost in the Shell explores the nature of humanity and self-determination as the story's protagonist Motoko Kusunagi finds herself increasingly drawn into the world of complicated cyber crime. Switching directions here.

Our next pick is 2015's Kung Fury, let's see if I can get through this with a straight face. This film directed by David Sandberg is one of the few films to be funded via Kickstarter, raising over $630,000 and promising backers a spectacular homage to 80s action films and boy did it deliver! Kung Fury is the story of a detective who gained superhuman fighting abilities after being simultaneously struck by a bolt of lightning and bitten by a cobra. Kung Fury uses his supreme combat skills to clean up the filthy streets of Miami, but faces his greatest challenge when none less a villain than Adolf Hitler arrives intent on conquering all of time through his own mastery of kung fu.

**The Silence of the Lambs**

If it's not apparent already, Kung Fury is a film that makes no attempts at seriousness and that's not all; there's also a full-length sequel on its way with Michael Fassbender, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and David Hasselhoff involved in varying capacities. Um yeah! Our next pick is one of the only films to win the Academy Award in each of the top five categories - 1991's The Silence of the Lambs. This psychological thriller casts Jodie Foster as FBI trainee Clarice Starling whose investigation of a brutal serial killer leads her to seek information from another equally terrifying killer, the imprisoned Dr. Hannibal Lecter, a brilliant psychiatrist with an affinity for killing and eating people.

The Silence of the Lambs was directed by Jonathan Demme and written by Ted Talley and is based on Thomas Harris's 1988 novel of the same name. The Silence of the Lambs is widely regarded as one of the greatest horror movies ever made and often ranks among the best films of all time, it's as terrifying as it is captivating in its story of Starling's cat-and-mouse game with both Lecter and the vicious killer she's pursuing, Buffalo Bill.

**The Terminator**

Our next pick is 1984's The Terminator, the film not only launched its director and co-writer's careers but also turned Arnold Schwarzenegger into a bonafide leading man with his performance as the titular near-in unstoppable android assassin. The film follows a young woman Sarah Connor played by Linda Hamilton who finds herself pursued by a cyborg killer sent from the future in order to prevent her from giving birth to the man who will lead the human rebellion against the machines in the decades to come. Michael Biehn plays a supporting role as Kyle Reese, a human soldier sent from the future to protect Connor from the terrifying T-800 assassin.

**The Stan Lee Story: With Great Power**

Last but not least is the 2010 documentary, With Great Power - The Stan Lee Story, which chronicles the life and career of the man who co-created Spider-Man, Iron Man, The Avengers, Hulk, The X-Men, and so many other world-famous superheroes. This 2010 documentary offers an origin story of sorts for Stan "The Man" Lee, it also provides a touching look at his life away from all of the superheroes and larger-than-life adventures as both doting husband and father.
