What actor’s expression in a movie will stay with you the rest of your life?

I loved Iceland when I was there several winters back. I was struck by the blue too

Australian film recommendation
This image is a movie poster for Dead End Drive-In, a 1986 Australian dystopian action film directed by Brian Trenchard-Smith. The poster features a close-up of a young man with dramatic, punk-inspired makeup, including heavy black eyeliner and red streaks running down his face. The tagline at the top reads: “There’s a party every day, a movie every night and all the junk food you can eat. What more can a kid want… except to get out!” At the bottom, the title Dead End Drive-In is displayed in bold, yellow block letters with the tagline: “The price of admission is the rest of your life.”

Show me 4 of your necessary December watches.
A still from A Blast of Silence (1961) The black-and-white image shows people walking on a bustling street, likely during the Christmas season. The background features a store window decorated with festive holiday decor and a "SALE" sign. A still from Black Christmas (1974) The image shows a person with long dark hair holding a telephone handset to their ear. They appear to be indoors, possibly engaged in a conversation, and behind them is a blurred background with colorful lights. A still from Whistle and I'll come to you (1968). The image shows a man in a suit and a flat cap sitting or kneeling in a graveyard. He appears to be holding something in his lap and looks intently at it. Several tombstones and tall grass are visible. A Still from The Exorcism (1972) The image shows a person with an expression of shock or fear. They have light-colored hair styled in a short bob. Their eyes are wide open, and their mouth is partially covered by their hand with fingers splayed.

Sharing something black & white.
A still from Les Yeux sans visage. It is a close-up of Christiane, played by Édith Scob. She is wearing an almost featureless white mask, only her eyes are visible.

Alright, I'll bite.

4 soundtracks to get to know me..
The image is a movie poster for "Hackers" featuring a group of young people looking upwards towards the camera. The text at the top reads "Hackers" in stylized, futuristic font, while the tagline below states, "their only crime was curiosity." The background has a pink and purple cyber-themed design, emphasizing digital and technological elements. This image is a movie poster for the film titled "Emanuelle Nera Orient Reportage." The poster features an illustration of a woman sitting in a meditative pose with a lotus flower in front of her. In the background, there are stylized depictions of Eastern architecture. This image is a poster for the film "Chungking Express" by Wong Kar-Wai. It features a collage-style design with three main subjects: two women and a man. The background consists of overlapping photographs and torn images, giving a busy and eclectic appearance. Bright yellow and white typography displays the film's title prominently in the center. The image features a dramatic and intense scene from the soundtrack cover of the film "Sorcerer" by William Friedkin. It depicts a person struggling on a perilous, precarious bridge as an enormous truck looms menacingly above, suggesting a sense of danger and suspense. The bridge appears to be dilapidated.

When the resort to this for the viewing figures, I might well be tempted to tune in.

Repost with something you own that most people don't.

This probably needs a CW
The cover of the 7" single "clowns", from 1986. 6 clowns smile creepily at the viewer, they are all covered in black plastic from the waist down. The name of the single is in the top left, but honestly this is a cursed artefact.

If you see this, quote with your favourite horror movie using a gif.
(Ok, not _the_ favourite, but certainly one of them. And not strictly horror, but very much haunting)

Oh heck do I love me a good title card
This image depicts a scene from a subway station. There are signs displaying the name "Suspiria" and "Ausgang". On the left, a man and a woman are engaged in conversation near a column that separates the stairs and an escalator leading up. On the right, a woman stands alone holding a book or magazine, dressed in a long coat, scarf, and skirt, looking slightly disoriented or thoughtful.
