I tried to get the list in the proper order, but it won’t let me do it. It keeps the list on two pages so I can’t do the numbering trick.

So if someone has some time, should look into it, because I don’t know about you guys, but its annoying that it isn’t in the proper order.

A lot of people were offended by Apocalypse Oz becuase it thumbed its nose at the very idea of ‘classic’, yet somehow did so with affection for the films it mashed-up and bastardised. A modern classic…
