Quite a few you suggest were borderline entries- eg Pi, Existenz, Cure, Crash, Repo Man, and One False Move, which i think i should have picked, slipped through too. Yeah, the list does need at least one extra Cronenberg, but i couldn't decide which. I like Existenz more than the probably more important Crash. Of course it's impossible to ever have a satisfactory cut-off point. I didn't like Songs from the Second Floor and didn't think it so essential, objectively, that i couldn't leave it out. You seem to like quite a few horror films. I've not seen Black Sabbath, just have the one by Bava (also enjoyed Blood and Black Lace), wasn't sure if he needed another inclusion.

Passion of Joan; probably Dreyer's most strikingly impressive film- a "symphony of faces", but others like Ordet and Gertrud (i thought the latter was boring first time round) have grown on me a lot and i also really admire Day of Wrath. His silent film Master of the House was good fun- quite a few of his films should please feminists!-, and Vampyr very eerie. For quite a while i thought he was overrated, but i now rate him more highly than Bergman.
